Hawks faced greater adversity last year versus Detroit. The series is far from over.

I'll be in the UC Sunday, willng the Hawks to a win.

I'm happy for King Hendrik and especially Marty St Louis. Helluva effort.

Best chant in professional sports, "We want the cup...." only slightly better than "Beat L.A. ... " which most people mistakenly think was the Garden crowd chanting TO the Celtics, but in reality it was as the Celtics were being beat, the crowd was chanting to Philadelphia 76ers as they won the series and were heading on to play Magic's Lakers for the Championship. Oh and Yankees Suck of course is a classic...

That was awesome. I kind of remember that from when I was but a tike, but still hear the story retold frequently here in the Philly market.

122 minute scoreless streak by Rask just ended. Now, he can go back to sucking!

Nah - Winnipeg crowd chanting "Crosby's better" at Alex Ovechkin.
Their other great one was "Mario's pool boy" whenever Crosby touched the puck.

Winnipeg has a hockey team?

We bought a slightly used one from Atlanta!
(A little like the submarines the Canadian government bought from Britain!)
Anyway:
We have a nice building, passionate crowd and Jacob Trouba.
Just need a goalie.

nutcracker · 05-10-2014, 07:19 PM

Then of course the immortal:
"refs you suck!"

yourchoice · 05-10-2014, 07:33 PM

Speaking of chants... I'm a Flyers fan, but also a hockey fan. Back in 03 I was lucky enough to go to north Jersey (wait....who is ever lucky to go to north Jersey?

) to see a Finals game between the Devils and the "Mighty" Ducks. During that game (which if you'll remember from that Ducks playoff run, JS Giguere was playing great) the Devil's fans were chanting "Marty's better". Wow... I thought that was great. Although, as a Flyers fan I was rooting for the "Mighty" Ducks, I gave kudos to the Devil fans that night.

AdamJoshua · 05-10-2014, 07:53 PM

No "quack quack quack" chants, oh wait they were in NJ.

Best Bruins save of the game was by Hamilton getting his stick in there, of course the crowd thought it was some amazing Rask save pfffth.

Every player in the Seguin trade is paying off in spades for the Bruins right now, suck it Tyler have fun spending the rest of the playoffs in some bar being drunk and acting like an ass.

I enjoyed Thornton laughing at PK, the dirtiest player on the ice whining to the refs as Shawn literally laughs at him, if PK could land some of those forearms and elbows at the back of players heads he'd have something going there.

Rask sucks

Subban does have an amazing talent for avoiding hits AND throwing elbows at the back of people that miss. And whining; can't forget the whining.

I was LMAO at Thornton's laughing in his face. Good win by the Bruins; I just hope they close out the series next game.

...but he's no Cindy, maestro de whine!

AdamJoshua · 05-10-2014, 08:20 PM

The Bruins had not scored a power-play goal in the playoffs against the Canadiens in 39 tries over 14 playoff games dating to 2009... ouch, well got that monkey off our back.

AdamJoshua · 05-10-2014, 09:31 PM

No he's dirtier.

icehog3 · 05-11-2014, 09:57 AM

Seguin still > Louie E. and Riley S., Adam.

Just that the Bruins have the better goaltender.

Headed to the United Center tonight, hoping the Hawks keep home ice unbeaten.

Don't forget Matt Fraser got the game winner the other night.

Seguin with one goal in playoffs, same as last year.

Getting to look like Cherillie picked Dallas pocket..plus there is another guy we might see in the future.

And we do have one of the best goaltenters in the world of hockey.

nutcracker · 05-11-2014, 10:06 AM

Whoa - lucky guy. Are you a season ticket holder Tom?

AdamJoshua · 05-11-2014, 10:24 AM

Good luck at the game tonight Tom, need to turn that tied.

Quote:

"Hit me in the visor," Subban reported. "I couldn't even see the last minute and a half out there. I was pretty upset about that. It's part of the game."

He's so full of it, you watch him skate over to the bench even as he's still whining and wipes his visor off with a towel.

Yeah, it makes you wonder how goalies ever manage to see due to them always squirting water in their own faces at play stoppages.

Could it be that Subban is yet another poor soul who is falling victim to dihydrogen monoxide poisoning?

Ahbroody · 05-11-2014, 01:01 PM

The difference here is that the play was on going not during a stippage and having water on a visior during play is like driving with a windshield with water. I going to guess you have never played or played with a visior. It was actually a little dangerous. While I dont care for either player much I like Thorton a bit more. Still think it was just a dumb thing to do.
