NHL Playoffs - Instant Boner



I'm fresh off of watching some of the most entertaining hockey I've seen in a long time. The Caps and the Hawks both showed some serious spine in winning their games tonight. Both games went down to the wire and the atmosphere in both rinks was electric. I would think the NHL would be pleased with how the playoffs have gone thus far, except for the fact the Mighty Oil did not qualify. A Chicago/Detroit Western Final would also serve the NHL well, considering both teams are slicker than Razor Ramon - and they faced off in an entertaining Winter Classic this year.. I can't wait to see Game 7 of the Caps/Pens series. Unreal.

Oh, and poor Vancouver. At least you have '94.



GO OIL GO!!!

  2. The greatest part is how many articles I read yesterday about how Luongo had to, nay, WAS going to steal game 6 for his team. Pretty ironic that when the team finally starts stacking up the goals for him he completely shits the bed. Is he joining Joe Thronton as sick players who completely shut er down in the playoffs? It's starting to look like it.

    And it was really nice to see Patrick Kane have his coming out party. Fuck is he going to be a gamer.

  3. I couldn't agree more. The Canucks kept lighting the lamp, and Lu kept pooping the sheets. I'd put Joe Thorton and Lu in the same category. Should be considered for the 2010 team, but used sparingly. When someone lets in 4 goals on 9 shots in a do-or-die game... That's a tell in my books.
