Bulletin-board material: Why your team won’t win the Stanley Cup

Pretty funny stuff. Would make some of the more cynical posters here blush.

Personally, I think the writer is not-so-subtly making fun of those fans that like to find reasons why a team can't win. The arguments are pretty thin, as you might find...might just find...on the main board here.

I rather enjoyed it. Thanks for posting.

Pretty good stuff.

But I will take issue with his saying the Kings played a "banged up Blues", as I recall they were healthy coming into the series, they got banged up because the Kings pounded them and dominated them physically.

Too bad the Penguin's did not just get: "Marc-Andre Fleury" otherwise, funny read!

The Pens would have a better chance of winning with this in net.

You can look that way. Only for Kings they couldn't find hole in their roster or statistical arguments...

I got pretty bored with the writing and when he got to the kings i was like, you're basing it on Luck? He doesn't know what luck is, we do with playing against Detroit's spectator netting, the fact it went in and not because they didn't call it.

"San Jose Sharks: Everyone’s favorite choke artists are back for another kick at the can. The Sharks got into playoff form early this year, dropping four of their last eight in regulation, thus blowing any chance they had at winning the Pacific Division and getting the cupcake Stars in the first round. Did we mention two of those four losses were at home to the Jets and Predators? Honestly, if the Sharks couldn’t take care of business against the likes of Winnipeg and Nashville, why would anyone think this group of career underachievers has developed the killer instinct it takes to win the Cup? Let’s just move on."

Quoted for truth.

Yeah, also as I already posted, he call the Kings "lucky" for playing a banged up BLues, but no mention in the Chicago write up how they got to play up a very banged up Kings team in the 4-1 series win.

I thought Blues fans regularly said that if not for Halak being hurt... and all that.
