2013 NHL Playoffs Discussion

Does Cooke get the Raffi Torres express?

He sure did. Boarding and got 5 and a game. Not sure if McQuaid sold that but I was a bit surprised at the game. Marchand's hit on Neal was not too different... no glass and he only got 2 min.

Gotta love the reffing these playoffs.

B's up 1-0 after 2. Bit of extra curricular after the whistle... Malkin and Bergeron drop the gloves, Crysbaby tries to goad Tuukka and barks at Chara.

Let's go!

B's up 3-0... we may see Fleury in the next game...

This is the bad game that Vokoun was due for....

Why couldn't we get that game... fack.

The Pens don't look anything like the Pens we played.. off night for them for sure. No doubt we'll see a different Pens team in Game 2. Credit to the B's though, they've played a solid game and Tuukka has been on. Not sure you go to Fleury even after this.

Here in the media they were a,ready talking about how they wanted to face LA. The thought was that Pittsburgh would steam roll over Boston because Rask is worse than Anderson.

B's shutout the Pens 3-0 to take Game 1. Could be an interesting series if this keeps up. Crosby was bothered early and seemed distracted and very un-Crosby during the game. Tuukka was solid.

Once game on the sched today...

Western Conf Final Game 2: Kings @ Blackhawks :: Blackhawks lead series 1-0 :: 8:00pm ET

The Chara vs Crosby stuff was awesome. Chara totally got in his kitchen. Also, it was great to see Bergeron and Malkin fight each other.

I'm reading a lot of stuff about how Vokoun had a bad game, but I didn't see that at all. A couple flukey goals, sure, but it's not like Vokoun was a sieve. If they put MAF back in nets, this series could be over quick...the Bs would rattle him.

Iginla was...invisible. It seems like he's just along for the ride, hoping for the best. I don't really blame him for leaving Calgary, but it will be awesome if the Bs can beat Pittsburgh and Iggy regrets his choice not to go to the Bs.

I would be quite happy if Pittsburgh got eliminated quick by the Bs.

That would be delightful.

R.I.P. "Dingbat"; Jean Stapleton passes away -- she was 90. Those were the days, indeed.

Shawn Simpson ‏@SSimpsonHockey 4m
TSN the reporters. Most bizarre conversation. Who will coach the Rangers? Guys talking hockey. Who've never played/ worked in the NHL! Scary

What a Front Bum

Yeah, Simpson gets weird sometimes.

I think Evan's apparent hatred of Simpson also gets weird sometimes.

2-0 Bruins.

Hope the Sens players are watching this.

Bruins putting on a clinic how you beat Pittsburgh.

Iginla is awful.
