I have no beef with it going 7 games. Bruins-Habs should go 7 every time they meet in the playoffs, anyways. Can't get enough Original Six hockey.

And when will the too many men on the ice penalty be called?

Vancouver apparently warming up for game 7 tonight.

Hey, I am fully on record that the team Boston is putting on the ice is better than the team that Montreal is putting on the ice.

I was just joking anyway - pointing out the timing of a Montreal fan talking about implosions, etc.

I'm not sure about this momentum stuff. From what I saw this year, the Bruins' intensity is down a notch when they play at home. No reason why Montreal can't steal game 5 and put themselves in great shape. Not sure about Montreal's ceiling, there *are* more talented teams in the playoffs. But that's a question for after round 1...

Good road period for the Sharks, 0-0, both teams with 5x3, SJ for 1:28, LA for :22.

And LOLuongo.

Edler with a cheap elbow to the head at the end of the 2nd.

5-0 Chicago after two. I wonder if Vancouver knows they have to win 4 games to advance...
 
Re: 2011 NHL Playoffs: Can the goalies be stopped?

The CBC analysts are roasting Edler oven an open-fire and the Canucks as a team for their cheapness.

Its like they totally lose their minds in the playoffs, especially against Chicago. If they played their "regular" game - speed, skill, they can out-talent and out-skate Chicago. Instead, Vigneault has them playing robot goon hockey. They are just handing this to Chicago.

Vancouver .... an enigma wrapped in a puzzle wrapped in ...

3-2 Sharks after two. Good first half, getting up 3-0, then Niclas Wallin strikes again followed by the farkup excuse of a 4th line in the 2nd half of the period.

Seriously, Wallin makes me understand what Wings fans had to deal with Lilja.
 
Re: 2011 NHL Playoffs: Can the goalies be stopped?

ALL 18 skating players for the Blackhawks got some ice time during the 4-minute powerplay in the 3rd period. How often do you see that?
 
Re: 2011 NHL Playoffs: Can the goalies be stopped?

The CanSucks are playing like a human vacuum cleaner managing to both suck and blow at the same time.
 
Re: 2011 NHL Playoffs: Can the goalies be stopped?

That was some...interesting reffing between two teams that went into dumbass mode for the last 4 minutes. 6-3 Sharks, 3-1 series.

They've got their hands around their necks and are in the process of tightening the grip.
