Around The NHL: Part IX - Blues: Mission Accomplished, Dallas: TBD

[Bob Richards]

His beard is older than some posters here

Joe Thornton's beard collects barnacles and fish like when they sink a naval ship to make an artificial reef.

can't imagine COL wanted VGK. Now they get to have SJS sans Pavelski. Dream scenario.

minus one of their four thirty goal scorers... can't imagine what they'll do

Nice that Peg, Calgary and Trontah went golfing. They will be ripe for picking now as panic ensues in the aftermath of media hype

Lots of teams could be making big changes this offseason. I think it could end up being a wild summer.

An entire, unseen ecosystem lives inside the beard.

All I can say is that was quite possibly THE greatest non Ranger game I've ever witnessed in my 50 years being a fan of this sport we love. Sure Vegas got screwed with that BS 5 minute major but it can't take away from the greatness of tonight. I'll remember this one for a very long time as this one will definitely stay in the memory banks for as long as I live.

Good watching and hanging with y'all. Now I'm going to try and I emphasize try and get some sleep somehow if possible....cheers boys...

Old Methusaleh Thornton keeps chugging on

He's still in the handshake line when the lights go out.

That was a bull**** major call on Eakin but come on. Vegas was up 3-1 in the series and up 3-0 with 10 minutes left in the game. Hard to feel too bad for them.

Vegas is a sham, they've been outplayed in nearly every game except for the blowout they put on SJS... Bad call or not you cannot give you 4 power play goals in 4 minutes straight.... That's f***ing horrendous. What an implosion... We talk about the lightning not being built for adversity? Vegas apparently isn't either

Fixed it for ya

Only 2 of the teams in the 2nd round maybe are what was expected to be there before the start of the playoffs. I've been watching Hockey for 26 years and it still sometimes doesn't make any sense.

 

[NYRKING30]

As for the controversial penalty call, yeah Vegas really got hosed there but as others have said, there is no excuse for giving up 4 straight PP goals no matter what.

 

[will1066]

All right. Going to catch some zzz's. What a night.

 

[NYRKING30]

Is HF running like shit for everyone else right now or is it just me?
