2025 NHL Playoffs

[Mr Rogers]

That one series where Getzy got smashed in the face with the puck then Garbutthole and Roussel were constantly gloved punching him after whistles the next game drove me BANANAS.

Yeah just because of that alone, could never go for the Stars even if all those guys are gone

 

[JAHV]

It goes back to Craig Ludwig's elbow on Selanne in 98 for me. I've hated them ever since.

Texas Rangers and Anaheim Angels have a history too. The Vincent Padilla era Texas Rangers were pieces of S%#@ too, all they would do is headhunt against the Angels throwing beanballs left and right at Angel players heads trying to injure the team because Texas sucked too bad to make the playoffs.

Then you got the bad blood between the front office of Lakers and Mavericks over the nixed trade of Chris Paul to LA because cry baby Mark Cuban whines to the NBA commissioner to stop the trade because it would mean a 3 peat for Lakers. Karma came in the form of Cuban selling his majority stake in Mavs and the Mavs sending Doncic to Lakers for 31y broken down Anthony Davis. Then the NBA steps up for the Mavs and has them win the draft lottery jumping 10 spots to win #1 pick (Rigged).

I remember when they hit Adam Kennedy

 

[Kalv]

Hyman out for the playoffs. Brutal for Oil

 

[Rybread86]

Officiating in this game 5 has been pretty turrible as Barkley would say

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Panthers 3 goals on 11 shots. Big Game Freddy showing up.

 

[Bender66]

Rod the bod doing his best. Bruce Boudreau impersonation again. No in game adjustments. "Just go work harder!"

 

[dracom]

canes need to win this in regulation, dont see them being able to do it in OT

Orlov is going to be escorted to the airport after this series.

 

[Static]

Also, nikishin obviously not ready for this type of pace and intensity. Really tough spot to debut in the playoffs.

 

[Deuce22]

Orlov is going to be escorted to the airport after this series.

Barkov just lost him on the way.

 

[Static]

Wonder what Carolina does after this

 

[dracom]

shame, if the panthers weren't such a dirty team it would be way easier for me to root for them. but man bennett is the most blatantly out to injure others player in the league right now

Florida is as close to 2007 Anaheim as you will get. Love watching them play.

they have to fire Rod at this point right?

i wasn't a hockey fan back then unfortunately so hard for me to see it the same as you.

 

[Static]

Were rod and Maurice arguing at the end there? That was interesting

It's possible, but that's always a game of, is there someone better out there? Not really a slam dunk.

 

[Dirk316]

Nothing they've been the same style of team for decades and never change

 

[Deuce22]

Wonder what Carolina does after this

Sign Marner and win the cup on a spreadsheet.

[HanSolo]

Put your head down, shut the f*** up, shake some hands, and swallow the loss Rod.

 

[Terry Yake]

3 finals in a row is very impressive

2019 was the last time the EC champ wasn't from florida

 

[LePerilsofPerreault]

Hopefully Luostarinen is okay and hopefully the Stars push the Oilers another game or two to make them work for it a little harder
