I've been a Fleury defender for years, but that was just one of the worst sequences I've ever seen from a goalie in the playoffs.

Also, have I mentioned how much I love the Stars home jerseys?

Agreed. They look amazing on TV.

We don't match up well with Pittsburgh. Columbus is a highly preferable matchup if we beat the Flyers, and I wanted no part of them in round one.

I disagree. We match up better vs a team with a legitimate star than a team that succeeds based on their depth.

Is a Bruce Boudreau team going to choke again in the playoffs?

dallas getting down and dirty

Both of their jerseys are amazing.

Love everything about this new Stars team.

Is a Bruce Boudreau team going to choke again in the playoffs?

Probably. He's the main reason I picked Dallas in 7.

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

Dallas come back down 2-0 and now lead 4-2.

DAH' COMEBACK KIDS NIGHT!

 

[Tawnos]

Somewhat related to Penguins woes... How about Goligoski? Been playing like a Norris caliber D since the Olympic break.

Marc-Andre Fleury...

 

[EpicDing]

At this rate, I want Pitt to win. I don't want any part of Columbus in round 2.

 

[Ghost of jas]

At this point, the Rangers need to make sure they take care of business, and end this series in five games, because PIT/CBJ has the makings of a 7-game series.

 

[Swept In Seven]

I too love the new Stars uniforms, an ode to the old Minny North Stars

 

[Inferno]

MAF might be my favorite goalie in the league.

even more than Henrik.


but for VERY different reasons.

 

[NYRSchrute217]

I disagree. We match up better vs a team with a legitimate star than a team that succeeds based on their depth.

Columbus is stronger in the bottom 6 and in net, but I think Malkin/Neal and Crosby on different lines don't really give us any type of matchup advantage. Especially if McDonagh doesn't get more comfortable.

 

[Black Aces]

At this rate, I want Pitt to win. I don't want any part of Columbus in round 2.

Far too reactionary.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Today's game is the reason I was upset with the Rangers sitting back on the lead yesterday. We got away with it but you can easily blow a lead sitting on it like the Pens did today.

 

[Thunderhead]

off topic
I just saw Cooke hit on Barrie . Why is this moron still playing ?

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

20 years from now, Stars fan will look back and consider the day they hired Jim Nill the greatest day in the history of their franchise (outside of game 6 in 99).

 

[Swept In Seven]

I'll say Rousell won that won

 

[EpicDing]

Far too reactionary.

Not really. I've wanted no part of Columbus since we locked in 2nd place. They legitimately scare me.

 

[Black Aces]

I wish Jamie Benn was a Ranger

 

[Swept In Seven]

This Anaheim/Dallas series is really entertaining, I love physical hockey

 

[Black Aces]

Not really. I've wanted no part of Columbus since we locked in 2nd place. They legitimately scare me.

What has happened when we have faced pittsburgh in the playoffs? MAF seems to not implode versus us and we can't keep up in terms of scoring.
