Next round is montreal and tampa bay.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

Don't count them out.

That was a pretty good game.. To bad for Raycroft that his team couldn't get any offense going... But good for me because I have Koivu and Theodore in my pool at school!

RE: Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

Ok I'll try not to do

count them out

too much.A pretty good game is a terrible thing to waste.Interesting. I want to find out more about you.Huh.
Thanks for the compliment. Your purpose is him or her because he or she have Koivu and Theodore in his or her pool at school.

I hate Iginla. That is all.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

HABS ALL THE WAY!

I just arrived from downtown, it's crazy down there, the cops are just letting people celebrate. I can't imagine what it would be like if they win the Cup.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

:WHOA: I can't believe the 'Nucks just scored...Amazing.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

COOKE WITH 5 SECONDS LEFT! OVERTIME, BABY!

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

I HATE CALGARY!!!!

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

I'm going to puke.

What a breakdown in front of the net. Poor Auld.


just think, if his glove was on the line instead of just a few inches in the net....that would've been a save.


****. ****. What a goal by cooke and it's all gone so quickly.


ahh well. Congradulations Flames...you played a great series and for the most part deserve the win.


Go Habs, Ottawa, Calgary, and any team in the west besides the Avs.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

The Calgary/Detroit series is going to be a waste, Calgary is gonna be out in 4. San Jose in 6, then again, Detroit in 6. It would have been better with Hedberg in net, Auld is bad down low, and especially the five hole. And sice their is going to be no hockey next year, this really sucks to have your team go out this way, and especially to a team like Calgary who doesnt deserve it.

Im not saying that they are a bad team, im saying that the Canucks deserved it more because we fought to win the title without Arvedson, Lindgren or Bertuzzi. And in the playoffs we fought back to a game 7 overtime without Arvedson, Lindgren, Bertuzzi or Cloutier. Im never going to be the same again, neither are the Canucks.

Because of this loss, Burke and Crawford are going to be fired for no apparent reason at all. They tried their best with what they had, and i say they should stay....Totally pi**ed off right now. Could not hate Calgary any more than i do right at this second

But at a sub-note, Ottawa, and Montreal all the way....or until they face eachother...then go Montreal!!

(and also think about this, If we had won Auld would be a Hero, but because he couldnt swing his stick, or not fall down so much, he is the Bain of evry fans existence right now. But i will say he's going to be a good goalie in the future.)...

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

not necessarily. If they work hard they could give the wings a run. Really, the preds gave wings a scare for a second there too, and i consider calgary better.

I don't know how much better Hedberg would have actually played for us. I do know that I'm still pissed a Crawford for the change in the first place, even if Auld did a giguere.

The flames deserved it more. They honestly fought harder with what they had than the canucks. Sure, we had some of our best players and #1 goalie out but look at the flames. They had just as many players out and they didn't have any depth to fall back on at all.

I don't see why Burke should even be considered as a possible firing target. He has built one hell of a team as far as I'm concerned. It's not his fault that our players were all injured.

Crawford on the other hand should be fired after his contract is up. The decision with our goalies is, imo, grounds for a firing.(even though the whole coaching/management probably had a say in it)

but singling out crawford..he is the one who's had a grudge against hedberg ever since he got here. He called berg 'terrible' after a loss in OT against Chicago....yet Cloutier's played much more worse games than that and crow doesn't seem to notice. Clouts is a good goalie...and so is hedberg. Crawford's just a dick. I don't remember if i already vented about him letting a personal matter get in the way of a professional decision on this board but you probably know what i'm talking about.

yes, go cdn teams. But hopefully Ottawa will get the farthest.

dunno, i'm not upset with his performance. He did as good as I expected him to. He needs to get a lot more experience under his built though. His play as a whole isn't very good.

it's too bad taht Hedberg won't be playing another game for the canucks organization...the guy deserves better than how it's treated him. Well, maybe it's a blessing to get away from the nucks franchise...he'll be better off somewhere else where his career has promise.

again, good luck to all your guys's teams in the playoffs.

sorry null but i'll have to be routing for calgary(but not totally totally routing)

they are a cdn team. cheers.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

i doubt detroit will take them in 4. It'll be a tough series. no body wanted to play calgary going into the playoffs cuz they been on such a streak to get where they were. Vancouver got the unlucky spot of playin them. and without bertuzzi even worse.

I wanted to play colarado round one, playin a team like them brings out the best in the wings. Wings have trouble getting up for lower place teams in playoffs so it gets worrysome.

Hopfully toronto can take it tonight. GO LEAFS!!!!

Props to vancouver for tying it late the way they did tho.


[edit] just saw a vid of the OT for nucks.... Was Calgary on a powerplay in OT that early? how the hell did that happen? usually its hard as hell to get a call in OT

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

Jovo had a penalty during the last little bit of the 3rd period and it carried into OT.

Re: Here comes the NHL Playoffs!
 

Well, Vancouver actually took a penalty in the closing seconds of overtime, then they scored, but of course the penalty carried over to OT.

I hope the Leafs win tonight as well. The Flyers handled them easily in all but one game this year, and we've had much more difficulty with the Sens recently. Either way, we're getting a nice rest and it will be good to start at home.
