Here comes the NHL Playoffs!

Like when theres 2 minutes left in a game, and the score is 2-0 your team, and the commentator, or a buddy says " Aw man, a shut-out would be awesome" or something along those lines, then you get scored on, pisses me off. When it comes down to it everyone thinks they control their teams destiny by what they do or say, as if they have supernatural powers. Like me and my brother always do the same thing before and during a canucks game, then if we lose, we blame it on one insignificant thing like: " Hey, we lost cuz i forgot to wear my hat", as if the team cares...i say all this knowingly, but im still supersticious about hockey...wierd eh?

^^^ most diehard fans are like that

It's emotional attachment to the outcome of the game. You'll do anything to change your bad luck.

Oh yeah...and the LEAFS RULE great game tonight...Eddie Belfour was as solid as a rock.

im not saying htis solely because im from Vancouver, but i think The Vancouver/Calgary games, will the one of the best of the playoffs....But im now pulling for a fight im gme 3 for Ottawa and Toronto..i was hoping at the end of game 2, but no dice.

Well, I'm happy about the Flyers, Devils game yesterday. It was very physical, lots of massive fights. I believe Esche came close to a suspension. Two more games to go, but..I know for a fact that it won't be four straight wins for the Flyers.

yes, what i hate is when some punk comes and messes with my superstition. Like one thing i have is a redwings hockey puck. it sits ontop of my tv, when the wings arent playin its face down. before every game i flip it face up...
a friend will come into my house and pick it up and looks at it. im like AH!!! WHAT IN GODS NAME DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!?!
