Turned on the game at the last faceoff. heh.

 

Rinne was amazing. I saw him a bunch here in Milwaukee when he was coming up with the Admirals. I guess the Predators are my adopted second team now that the Hawks are out.

man luongo was really good all of regulation and then let in a complete turd of a goal with a minute left.

 

side note, i think the predators should just keep barry trotz around as their head coach until he dies. with all the turnover in hockey coaching, it would be funny if they went like 40 or 50 years with the same head coach. then after he dies they can keep his corpse as their head coach. do it, nashville.

I'm a big fan of Rinne and the Preds.

 

I understand liking Rinne but the Preds are the most boring team in the Western conference. Or is this a case of "whoever is playing the Canucks?"

 

 

The Preds also could be a legitimate Stanley Cup contender if they would just spend up to the Cap. Maybe now that they have finally won a playoff series they will be willing to up the payroll to be more competitive. But I have a hard time rooting for teams that will not invest to win.

Given they have little to no offensive skill their game of wait for the oppostion to make a mistake, score and then hold on is boring. But they are good at what they do, gotta give credit for that.

the preds play a garbage style of hockey. i could never root for that.

 

I can root for them just fine when they are playing Vancouver. Because, really, as long as Vancouver doesn't win the cup or even get close, we still sort of own them.

Whoever's in charge of the Flyers goal light needs to be fired on the spot.

 

What happened?

 

Very similar to how the Hawks won Game 6 last year against Philly, except it was even more obvious this time around that the puck was in the back of the net.

 

Boston clearly scored in overtime, yet the goal light never came on. They continued playing until the next stoppage in play when the refs got word from Toronto that Boston won the game.

meh, play only went on for like 5 seconds because the flyers iced the puck shortly after that. and the referee down low didn't signal goal either.

 

tim thomas absolutely won that game for boston, he was brilliant. of course, we have had mediocre goalies for the past 20 years so i don't know what it's like to have a goalie winning a series for you... usually it is goalies letting in complete turds that ends up being our downfall.
