I was talking about Colin Quinn, an MTV reject. (The only other Quinn I could think of on short notice. )

Oh. I thought it was some kind of snide remark referring to having our heads up his ass, or something. Colon...get it?

Oh yeah baby! Leafs win 3-1 last night!

Montreal beat BOSTON 5-2, holy shiat! What's with the upstart 8th place teams beating the first place teams in game one this year!?!

Go Leafs! Go Vancouver! Go Montreal! Screw Ottawa!

Ditto.
I think the first place team blow their brains out trying to get there and when they do they either cruise or are so full of themselves they foreget how to play.
GO LEAFS GO!

OK, I must admit. I am moderately concerned right now.


You know what's so great about overtime hockey? NO TV COMMERCIALS. That Hurricanes-Devils OT last night was so cool to watch without any commercial interruptions.

It was cool because New Jersey LOST!!!

Ottawa BEAT Philly.............ooooooh, that's gotta hurt Al-Quinn.

 

[seyone]

that really sucks, Philly looked pretty tight most of the game but just couldn't finish.

I agree, I can't see Ottawa lasting much longer against Philly if Philly gets thier heads out of thier asses and use's thier superior size and strength to grind Ottawa down.

I just like bugging Albob, and God forbid if Philly loses this series, because I'll NEVER let him live it down.

 

[seyone]

hopefully Detroit will go down 3 games tonight, but I don't see it happening.

 

[mmafiter]

Uh oh. Boston looked good against Montreal.

Vancouver lost to Detroit. Hasek looks to be getting his confidence back.

How about that goal the Vancouver goalie gave up from the farkin' RED LINE!? Man, I was having Chris Osgood flashbacks!!!

I am so glad Detroit pulled it out. But being new to Hockey, can you guys answer a question for me.

Where does this leave Detroit?

Leaves Detroit trying to tie up the series on Canucks home ice. 2-1 Van. right now. I hope these series all go 7 games. Leafs should win in 4, maybe 5, then they can rest, heal, and kick@$$ in the next step to bring Lord Stanley's Cup back to it's rightful home.

yyyyup. And unlike any other major sport, home ice advantage means SQUAT in the NHL. I think I read somewhere that the home team won 50% of the games in last year's playoffs.

 

[digger1]

Yeah, that's a good point. I think that maybe for regular season. I think it's more important in playoffs when the games actually mean somthing and the fans really get into it. It's hard to tell here in TO though, what with all the suits who can't get out of their seats because the wallets are so heavy.
GO LEAFS GO!

Color me NOT worried.

Just for kicks, stop and picture a Philly vs. Toronto series. The hell with the games, can you imagine the fights right here on our peaceful little board? (Philly would win both on and off ice of course. )

Philly/Ottawa on ESPN tonight. Philly will be looking to rebound after a humiliating SHUTOUT in game two.

 

[ALBOB]

Tonight's game will be in Ottawa so we should be a shoe in to win. They just get too wound up at home. Those damn Philly fans are tough to play in front of. It's almost like a home ice DIS-advantage for the Flyers. Freakin' Flyers fans

Uhhhhh...........Wait a minute..............Uhhhhh..............Oh well.......... GO FLYERS GO FLYERS

 

[seyone]

wow, what the funk just happened? was that a hockey game??? it totally killed me to have to watch that. Philly didn't skate, shoot, hit, rebound.... am I missing anything? I couldhave been doing something productive instead i wasted a fewhours on nothing.

That game was painful to watch. Personally, I don't care who wins that series. But the Flyers just didn't do anything. I was hoping they'd tie the score just I could see overtime. They didn't have any frickin' pressure on Ottawa for the final 15 minutes. The Flyers were playing dump-and-chase, but someone forgot to remind them about the CHASE part.

 

[seyone]

dump and watch

or "dump and wait"

Did anyone notice the Flyers kept trying to play side-to-side hockey, instead of just pushing the puck up the ice? They'd go side-to-side to the blue line, then do half-assed dump into the corner.

 

[seyone]

the whole thing just killed me to witness
