Jim Kelly won 4 MVPs with the Bills .... you wanna cookie with that?

I was more upset with the calls on the ice than anything else, that too many men non-call when the extra man actually played the puck with his stick was enough to cost a lesser man his remote.

Until Rask does something other than choke in the playoffs, he's dead to me, I'm going old school Jazz Singer on him, not Al Jolson...not that old school, Larry Olivier and Niel Diamond old school.

I love all those make-a-wish things, one of my favorite charities ever, always get a bit misty reading them and seeing the little kids though, you know how it is, no one said life is fair but little kids shouldn't get those illnesses.

Hockey players are the BEST!!!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Well in that case it was the organization that was the best. That being said can't watch stuff like that, at least not at work, gets too misty in here, i think it's dust from the new ceiling tiles or something

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Excellent post Tom. Very cool of the Sharks to do that.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Can't decide who I want to run more, Sedin or Tort....

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Avs!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Rask pitches a league leading 7th shutout against the Stanly Cup champions :banger

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Love the Bruins aren't sitting back during this Flyers game, they are giving as good as they are getting. Didn't realize the core of their young D, 4 of the players have less than 100 NHL games played, wow they play like seasoned vets.

Should be a great rematch Saturday in Boston.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

LOL @ Rask .. you suck.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Edit: Smith is now 2 for 2 in SO goals, both game winners. That right there was a great game, even if the Bruins would have lost I couldn't complain that was game 7 action there.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Wings are clinging to that 7th seed. I hope they can hang on.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

I didn't get to see the whole game, but from what I saw, I agree...playoff-esque hockey. I was happy the Flyers were able to steal a point, late.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Rask :hn

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

I didn't see the game but Nyquist had quite a highlight reel goal for the game winner. He now has 23 goals in the last 28 games. He's on fire. Plus, we're supposed to get Datsyuk back tomorrow. :wo

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

I watched the game, Mike, Nyquist is a stud. I don't think the Wings will do much in the postseason this year, but the future looks bright with him, Tatar, Jurco, Helm and other kids up front.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

I agree. I'm glad Ken Holland didnt ship any of the kids you mentioned for any older vets at the trade deadline. I like the Legwand deal if we can resign him. He seems to be a good fit and didnt cost much. With Dats back they could make a little noise but likely a first round exit. If they can eek out a 6 seed they might have a better chance of advancing by avoiding Boston and the Pens.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Another o.t. win for the Avs :tu

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

They are on fire.... I was in Cancun for a week and they went 4-0, all against teams that would be in the playoffs, if they started today. Not a bad run, now being back in the States, I hope I didn't jinx them for tonight.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Youth still shows in my Stars. Inconsistency abounds. Still, my confidence in a playoff run is growing, even if it may be a short run.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Been to the last two Hawks games, both wins. I think the team should give me season tickets, I was at all 4 playoff-clinching games in 2013.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Great two games between Bruins and Flyers. though I am far from a Flyers fan that is a team any team with cup aspirations should fear to meet in the play-offs.

Not that you winners care much but If you haven't noticed the Isles have actually looked pretty good considering they are w/o Tavares, Okposo, Grabner, vanek/moulson...they played like 10 rookies in last nights loss. yes, I know it was 4-0 but 5 on 5 we were right in there and playing well.

Garth get us a 1 and 2 goalie or GTFO!!!!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

If the Avs can win tonight, the Avs are within 2 points of the Blues(same # of games played) with 3 to go.

Blues having trouble putting the puck in the net. 5 goals in 5 games.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Jesus H. Christ.... you suck Rask.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

I have Bryzggal-off in my other fantasy league....Thank you, Rask. ;)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Nice win by the Avs :tu if I heard it correctly, the Avs are the best road team in the NHL and 35-0-2 when leading the game going into the 3rd period. Only 2 points from the Blues :noon

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Wings need only 1 point to clinch a playoff spot for their 23rd year in a row. I hope they can get at least that 1 point against the Pens tonight. The game tonight is likely a preview of round 1 should everyone stay in the same seeds in the east.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Way to go Minny! Now Avs just have to win....and keep winning, their positioning is in their hands now. (Though tied, getting outplayed in Vancouver)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Tyson Barrie!!!!

& then WOW...Save by Varly...unbelievable!!! 5:00...keep playing!!!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Nice!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Stay in 1st, E.J., Blues are sliding....you can play the Hawks in the Division Finals. ;)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Great game :tu

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Stars can clinch a playoff birth tonight with a win. They are playing St. Louis at home. Stars are on a 5 year playoff drought.

please, please, please....

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

With the way the Blues are playing, you may very well clinch tonight!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Here's to the Blues losing the next 6 in a row! ;) :al

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

:tu

Ugly game last night, they chased Berra out of the net pretty fast and never recovered :td

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Yep, Don....that was ugly. Though I was feeling pretty good at the 2nd intermission...the 3rd was not pretty.

Need the Ducks to lose to the Kings tonight. They then have about 20 hours getting off the ice, to back on against the Avs Sunday.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Hoping for the Avs to win tomorrow. Blues are banged up right now with Backes, Oshie, Bergland, Morrow and Roy all day-to-day, and Terasenko out. Add Miller's awful goaltending lately, the Blues not getting a single point in their last 5, and it might be a perfect time for Chicago to play them. :r

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

hawks win ... hawks loose ... doesnt matter ... hossa is worth the price of admission .

goal of the year tonight .

derrek

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Hossa is the real deal indeed!

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Bruins win the Presidents Cup...but it don't mean jack shite..the eye is on the big prize.

The defense is a concern for me?

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Bruins - Kings Final?
Goes to 7 games

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Fixed it for you :)

Rask sucks. :hn

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

And Coach Q sends him to the showers to rest after the goal...gotta love it.

Nice to see the great reaction for Ryan Smyth's last game, a good guy and great player.

He took a 5 minute and 36 second shift in the second period, that was too cool. :r

Kings in the Finals? Now that's rich. ;)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

So I think the outcome of the whole shebang depends on how these blokes perform:

Tuka
Sid the kid
King Hendrik (always fades come playoffs)
Jonathan Quick
Chicago D-men
Carey Price
The Kings playing their own game

Mostly the goalies make or break you. (Ask the Jets)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

True, not gonna make it past the Blues ;), or the Aves, or even the Ducks.

Not so sure about the Sharks since they have a propensity to choke in the playoffs. :D

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

I think Fleury is a bigger factor for the playoffs than Sid, and I think he will sh!t his goalie pants by Round 2 again.

Quick is proven, the Kings will win the Jennings. I think secondary scoring will be their biggest unknown.

Agreed on the Hawks D-men, the Blues' game plan will be to dump and hit. Can Keith, Hjallmarsson, Leddy and Oduya take the beatings for 6-7 games? Big question, that and the health of Toews and Kane.

Ask Adam about Rask, his Bruins fan opinion is always entertaining.... :D
