I caught the OT period of that Hawks/Canucks game 6. Great stuff. Glad the Hawks have forced a game 7. That is one I'll have to DVR.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Hoping for Wings-Preds and Sharks-Hawks for Round 2. :)

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Im down with this

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Somehow we are all in agreement. Heads up I think the world is about to end.

:tf

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

There's little hope for the East this year...... :sad

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I'm happy with those match ups also. I think everyone agrees because Sharks and Hawks fans don't want the Wings and of course the Wings would love Nashville compared to the other two. Any Nashville fans have an opinion? Didn't think so

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Joe Thornton. About time. Go Sharks. and go Hawks tomorrow.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Alright Tom Sharks did their part.
Sending good luck to the Hawks even though the way they are playing it may spelll doom for the Sharks. Would rather go out to a team I like then one I dont. :r

By the way that charging call was piss.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Congrats to the Sharks for surviving the 5 minute penalty kill and moving along. :tu

Hope the Hawks get a chance to face them in what would be a great series.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

BTW, Go Stevie Y! Hope he gets GM of the year and that the Lightening can get a game 7 win over the Pens.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Good luck to the Hawks and lets go Bruins. Tom, I still want to see a Hawks/Bruins final.:D

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

That wouldn't suck for me either, Paul. :D

Both excited and nervous about tonight. Bickell is out, hoping Kopecky is playing.

Bobby Luo is either going to be a hero, or riden out of town on a rail.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

That would be Awesome an O-6 final.:banger

They need to put the nail in the coffin tonight.

LET'S GO BRUINS!!!!!

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

My stomach is already doing flip flops in anticipation of the game tonight!! :)

Let's Go Hawks!! :tu

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Is it 7:00 yet :D

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Yours and mine both...but for a different game! ;)

Let's Go Flyers!!

I'd love to see both the Flyers and Hawks win game 7 tonight.

I'm surprised the league scheduled games 6 and 7 of the Bruins/Canadiens series for back to back nights. If the Habs pull out the win tonight they could certainly ride that high tomorrow. Maybe it was an arena availability issue.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says, "why the Luongo face?"

I am here all night!! :noon

Dont forget to tip the staff and try the veal.

Rimshot.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

NHL on XM asked a Vancouver sportswriter what the mood was in Vancouver, confident or scared....he said they were putting up bets around all the bridges in town. He said at the morning skate the Hawks seemed loose and the 'Nucks uptight. The 'Nucks were saying all the right things, but their body language told a different story.

Let's Go HAWKS!!

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Big night tonight..... Got to love a game 7.

Go Buffalo!

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

The mood I'm seeing is resigned. There's a lot of hope that the Canucks will pull it out, but the Canucks have also let this city down so many times in the past (not just against Chicago) that there almost seems to be this sense of the city steeling itself psychologically for a loss. I just hope it's a good game, I don't want to see another blowout (for either team) like there was in games 4 & 5.

Was this the same writer that tweeted that the score board in Rogers Arena was still displaying the 5 - 0 score from Game 5 when the Canucks came out for their morning skate today? I would expect the Canucks to be tenser than the Hawks, there's a lot more pressure on them give that they entered the playoffs as the Vegas favourites and have blown a 3 - 0 series lead. The Hawks have been playing on borrowed time for so long in this series (from an elimination stand point) that it's easier to be loose about it.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Well Tom cant say it, but I am hoping the Hawks get up early and just put the boot to the throat and leave it there.

Saw Jumbo Joe today walking into a local theme park. Was meeting someone. Said Hey Joe as he walked by. Got the nod. Wife and I were saying it must be nice to be in a market like ours where you can go out the day after and not have to deal with crazy fans or press.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

That's one reason he could not play in Boston,it's to intense here.
Regardless of the success of our other teams, when the B's are winning they own the town:tu

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

No argument here. I am like most west coasters we love sports and watch it, but at the end of the day we all see it for what it is. Its a game and entertainment. I laugh at the intensity of some markets where people live and die with a team. Given its hockey its much less fanatical here. The bayarea is a baseball and football market. The core group of fans is dedicated but small.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

My picks for tonight:

Habs
Sabres
Hawks

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

My buddy lived in SD for just over a year and was shocked at the lack of interest in their city's teams outside of the chargers. I definitely think we can get carried away with our teams here in Boston and expect a lot from them but to me that is what makes it exciting to watch.

Some players can't stand to play for NY, Boston, or Philly teams and I don't blame them. However, if they play well in those cities you are a living legend. Example: Ray Bourque....no one cared that he went to CO to chase a cup.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Some good insight, Geoff. :)

I am so nervous already you would think I was playing. :r

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

and here we go

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

And I am dying over here. :r

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Lets go hawks

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Vancouver dominated the 2nd, Crawford is the only reason the Hawks are still in this game.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

During game posting?
Not you Tom.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Nope, period just ended, and I am borderline nauseous. :r

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Let's Go Hawks!!!!!!

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Pretty much, Crawford is playing AMAZING!!

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Penalty shot!!!!!!!!


...



Crawford again!

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

The Green Men in Vancouver are really annoying, if any regular person tried doing a handstand against the glass they would be kicked out of the building, but somehow these guys are allowed to?

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Oh dear, that was some kind of effort to tie it up

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Zoinks. OT


I was actually counting them out after that late penalty.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Suspensions, Penalty shots, short handed goals, game 7 and now a sudden death overtime to decide who advances and who hits the golf course. What doesn't this series have? Either way it ends at this point I'm entertained.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I literally jumped up and down and yelled so long and so hard I almost passed out....OMG.

Life.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

:tpd: Hopefully it ends quick though, I need to go to bed :r

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I'm ok with them taking there time as long as the Hawks win. I'd rather the Sharks play a very worn out Crawford

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Un. Be. Lievable.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

this :noon

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

The Hawks owe me a damn new phone. I jumped out of my seat phone in lap. Screen is broke.

Fak!
