Around the NHL: Part V – Nice Try, Sabres (or, Playoffs?!)

[Tob]

Good news is that we still get a 2nd if they get punted.

 

[Maximus]

Chit like this is why 1st round of NHL playoffs if the best two weeks in the sports calendar year....amazing comeback by Jackets....luv it

 

[trilobyte]

Bluejackets playing inspired hockey, everybody pitching in.
Cool

I went to pick up the wife. Took 20 mins. CBJ scored 3 in that span. What the hell happened?

 

[aufheben]

Six minutes left, they just gave up the go ahead goal, John Cooper sends out Dan Girardi and people think he’s a great coach

Whole org. is arrogant. So many needlessly cute passes leading to turnovers. To be fair to Girardi, Hedman and McDonagh have both f***ed up BADLY tonight. And Stamkos. I mean really, what the f*** was that?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Panarin has done jack shit tonight other than that assist on the PP.

Good time to show up though.

 

[Maximus]

Now if Pens can make the Coliseum sound like the Mausoleum again in the 3rd period like it was the last 8 minutes of the 2nd, all will be good in the world...hah

Whole org. is arrogant. So many needlessly cute pass leading to turnovers. To be fair to Girardi, Hedman and McDonagh have both ****ed up BAD tonight.

Even back to last season, he matched up Callahan and Kunitz against Ovechkin and Kuznetzov. That shit works in the regular season when there’s going to be players coasting through games

Damn, JT Miller just picked a really clutch time to make the only defensive play of his career.

 

[Maximus]

my lord...Jackets have to score that empty netter...arggg....

my lord...Jackets have to score that empty netter...arggg....

Yeah that's coming back around on them imminently. No doubt.

 

[trilobyte]

Savard has been great. A Torts kinda guy.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Jackets suck at scoring on the empty net.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Eat shit Tampa.

[Fugazy]

Wow. Just wow.

 

[Overcast]

Nothing would make me happier than seeing TB swept here, other than somehow still getting their 1st and having them not win the Cup.

 

[Tob]

disgusting.

 

[Ori]

John Tortorella vs Tampa 1-0

Tampa deserved it they went all passive in 3rd - AV tanking.

 

[will1066]

Zucc!

 

[Maximus]

Now that my friends is one of the more remarkable comebacks you will ever see in the playoffs ever!. Holy friggen crap....Jackets deserve mucho kudos and the 'Ning are going to be livid when they watch the tape of this one. Amazing...just amazing. Good for Torts....

 

[Ghost of jas]

Awful loss by Tampa. Facing more adversity in going in to game 2 than they have all season.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Nothing would make me happier than seeing TB swept here, other than somehow still getting their 1st and having them not win the Cup.

We got Kakko.

I'm fine if the Bolts choke.

 

[will1066]

Torts was way too calm down 3-1. Genius move.

 

[94wasagoodyear]

Jumping on the Stars bandwagon just to see Zucc lift the cup.

 

[Ori]

yeah I don`t care that much about Tempa conditional - if it happens nice, but no big deal.
