2014 Non-Wild Playoff Discussion

[Avder]

I always get a chuckle watching Montreal Meltdowns.

At least this one didn't result in the ejections of half of both players teams.

After much consideration, I've decided to hop on the Rangers' bandwagon. Don't want the other teams anywhere near the Cup. It'd be a bonus to see the Canucks' former coach win it all after they replaced him with Torts.

 

[Avder]

I'm on the Kings bandwagon again for the duration of the WCF.

Die Hawks, die.

After that I think I'd want the east to win it, honestly. I just want to see the Hawks bounced like they deserve.

Want LA to take out the Hawks in stellar fashion to knock em down a peg or two, and would want NYR to beat LA in the final so gabby does not get his name on the cup.

For me, I'll hop on the Kings bandwagon for the WCF, and i'll stay on it if the Rangers lose the ECF.

support your friendly neighborhood new york rangers team

 

[Sharppi]

Let's go Rangers!

That didn't even feel horrible.

Like to see Gaborik win it all. At least one core member of the Wild team will finally got a ring. Was nice to see Willie get one.

Looks like Souhan has a brother: http://triblive.com/sports/joestarkey/6101920-74/crosby-penguins-game#axzz323Z4e8Hy

And I don't even like Crosby.

 

[The Enemy Within]

Turned on the hockey game just in time too see the Blackhawks take the lead.. woohooo.

I want to Hawks to win it so we can say that we lost twice in a row against the stanley cup winner.

Yeah that is one good way to look at it. That would be pretty amazing to have a back to back champion for the first time since 1997-98 too.

Does it have to be Chicago though?

No.

No **** Chicago.

And god dammit Kings, get it together and tie it up.

 

[melinko]

This game is remarkably similar to game 1 of Hawks/Wild.

 

[Avder]

God, **** off Toews.

 

[Al Lagoon]

I turned on the game today a neutral, and turned it off rooting for LA.

 

[Avder]

Yeah. Same aggravating ****ing lucky **** the Hawks always seem to get.

I really hope LA takes game 2.

 

[Ban Hammered]

**** LA. **** Brown. **** Gaborik.
I'd MUCH rather have the Hawks win

 

[The Enemy Within]

Does it have to be Chicago though?

Yeah I know.. Not exactly something I want to happen.. I guess it's just different since it hasn't happened in so long. I don't like either of the Kings or the Blackhawks anymore..But then I find it harder and harder to cheer for many Western Conference teams. lol But yeah.. I really wish it could be somebody besides Chicago.. yuck! lol

 

[Avder]

My plan is to root for the Kings in this round and then whoever comes out of the east in the Cup final.

 

[The Enemy Within]

Thats a pretty good plan there. I kind of want to see the Kings at least win game 2. I want it to be a long series simply because there will be more hockey left. But I will be cheering for whoever comes out of the East in the Final.

 

[Swervin81]

Price out for the rest of the ECF. Sucks because he is one of two Habs I don't totally hate with every inch of my body, but this is a mammoth of a break for the Rangers. They HAVE to take advantage of this.

I don't think Kreider did it on purpose. It is highly illogical to even think that a pro hockey player would WASTE A BREAKAWAY and prime scoring opportunity just to run the goalie.

 

[BigT2002]

Eh any fanbase is going to jump off the ledge when that injury happens. We would to

 

[Loopy0ne]

I am rooting for Gaby, and then Rangers because of the gf. Gaby trumps all, though.
