    Exactly. Last game it was 3-1, then 3-2 (on a legit goal), but then they sent them on penalty after penalty, including 5-on-3s. There was a point where someone BARELY touched the goalie and they called an interference, and nothing was getting called on the Sharks. It was ridiculous.

    I lold so hard. no offense bro



    Well, I got 6 out of the 8 teams right, with getting the entire East right.

    As for teams that I think that are going to advance to the Conference Finals, I believe it will be:

    West: Hawks and Shorks
    East: Penguins and Boston


    Who do you guys think is going to make it the Conference Finals?

    I like this thread.

    Not many people I know love hockey and I will admit, I wasn't following the B's too hardcore until the olympics brought my interest back. So far this postseason has been one of the best in years, with top seeds dropping left and right and unexpected low seeded teams playing the best hockey of the year.

    I'm obviously a Bruins fan and I am loving what they are doing right now. Rask is a beast and the entire team is playing on a level they never touched all year. They have the aura of a team on a run and they chose the perfect time to do so.

    So with that I will say I like the guy from earlier's prediction, Vancouver and Boston in the Finals, but with the Bruins winning of course :)

    Also, I want to introduce you guys to the the best announcer in Hockey, Jack Edwards. The guy is borderline insane and calls a mean game. Literally play by play with 99% accuracy, here's one of my fav clips:

    YouTube - Milan Lucic hits Randy Jones, Edwards loses it [HD]

    Also, best commercial ever. They have a few more if you feel like looking them up and they are all pretty funny. But this one is the best:

    7-1 Wings last game vs. the Sharks.

    Franzen had a hat trick...in the first period. Finished with 4 goals with like 5-6 shots on goal.

    I lol'd so hard because you lol'd so hard at Agamer lol'ing so hard. (0.o) Jonathan Toews had a hat trick and two assists last night. And you wonder if the Hawks can beat the Canucks. That's a good one.

    I saw the highlights for that game. Pure domination. I wouldn't mind seeing them turn it around and at least bring this series to a game 6 like we all know they can.

    On another note, my Pens are scaring me right now. Montreal shouldn't be putting up a fight like this.

    Vancouver won. Beat the Hawks 4-1.
    Both of the games the Canucks won were at least 3 goal differential games. They just need a constant game.

    You can never count out the Canadianians. I think they are hungrier because they are the underdog. Thats why they are putting up a good fight.

    Wings ended up getting knocked out, but that whole series was ridiculous. Whoever watched it could tell the ref's calls were AWFUL. You know something's fishy (no pun intended, Sharks) when San Jose newspapers are defending the refs.

    It was kinda lopsided, but my friend at school who is a die hard Detroit fan was more upset with the players than the refs. It's hard though; they've been really successful in the playoffs for a while now and a lot of them are starting to get old.

    Crosby really needs to show up (Malkin could be doing better as well) I'm sure he doesn't have a goal this series and does he even have a point? I think he has a few assists but I'm not sure. Also, fleury needs two more solid games because he has been shaky for a few of them.

    give sid a girls name. how clever. any particular reason you hate him? other than the fact that hes better than anyone on your team? im not sure why im even asking, since you obviously do not know much about hockey, seeing as you cant spell canadiens.

    well no offense but shockwave thought that the Hawks were going to lose.... so much for that haha

    My guess and my hopes is that the Hawks will beat the Shorks, go to the finals, and play either the bruins or flyers, most likely bruins..

    Im thinking it will be Philidelphia and the Sharks in the finals now. the flyers have more momentum than the Bruins because of the 3 game wnning streak. The Sharks are going to win becasue I think they have more skill than the hawks.

    Google it. It says it is Canadians

    Absolutely Owned. Haha

    but seriously, the pens played like absolute crap this last game. It was hard to watch. And the red wings are out so I don't really like any other team so I hope the canadiens win.

    And again, Mr. Shockwave is proven wrong. Solid, Agamer lol.

    Anyways, I wanna see Montreal win now (even though they won't). I want my Penguins to at least have lost halfheartedly to the champs (if you could even say it was halfheartedly, that was terrible).
    I see it going down like this. Boston advances over the Flyers. Sharks take it to the Blackhawks in 5 games and Boston beats out the Canadiens in 6 or 7 games. Sharks take it all.

    normally i would want the team that took out the pens to win, but i just would kill myself if they won it. i cannot stand the freakin trap. it just promotes boring hockey and lets average teams win some games. and montreal is the definition of an average team. it makes me sick to my stomach.

    and the pens need to get rid of gonchar. hes a good player, but hes not worth what hes paid. hes gonna have to either take a salary cut or hes gone.
