GDT: MDSF #7 - 04/30/14 | Philadelphia Flyers @ New York Rangers | 7:00 - MSG, NBC SPORTS

[Hi ImHFNYR]

I'd never let superstition get in the way of a good time... you're a better fan than I am.

Or just a more irrational person. Hot damn silver you going or not going does not influence victory! So I hope you are kidding because that is extraordinary smh material. Like how that pro golfer Ernie whatshisname shakes his head in disbelief in Happy gilmore

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

I think this is sarcasm.

It's time like these that I wish there were audio based forums. Although that type of forum might turn into a even greater miss-mosh than a text based message board. See post #98.

 

[Hi ImHFNYR]

Except for silly name calling, he didn't say anything troll like.

He came to illogical conclusions too. Like Hank is bad and used a 3 GAA stat which obviously wouldn't prove that. B/t name calling and the lack of logic it made it seem like very blatant sarcasm

 

[Doctor King Schultz]

If I've heard of the ref before, it's a bad ref. I have heard of Peel and Rooney and can match faces to their name. Therefore they suck.

They are regarded as the 2 most hated by NHL fans. We couldn't have drawn a poorer ref situation. Rooney is guaranteed to make the game about himself. Watch for AV to get ejected.

Ahhhh how funny the cutoff point was right before I guessed that it was sarcasm. Good to be right. better than being left

 

[Holocene]

Of course we get the worst refs possible. I hope the goal they call off isn't important to the outcome of the game!

 

[AHB*]

Rooney and Peel? Gross

Probably the worst two in the league ha.

I need to make a train for the game.

LGR!

I saw, apparently we played two games 7's against the Caps in 2013.

Last year was rough with Game 6, Game 7, and Game 7 on back-to-back-to-back nights.

So they're doing it to us on purpose? How about we try a sweep next time. That might be fun too.

Ha. So, heres the cynic in me, but I wouldn't put it past Dolan to mandate the team to stretch series so he can collect on the gate.

With the exception of DVM, I agree.

 

[JaeTM]

MSL needs to have a multi point game and Hank needs to let in 1, MAYBE 2. These guys really need to be our anchor because I have no faith in Nash to do anything. Mac needs to step it up too. Need these 3 to be our best players like they legitimately are.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

I assumed that this sited detailed analysis was thorough until I saw the 2013 repetition. It would have been unethical of me to doctor a direct quote from their website prior to posting here.

Clearly the first of the 2013s could not have been an easy typographical error because the number 2 key and the number 3 key are separated by a significant number of millimeters. There is the buffer zone on the character side as well as the numpad side, so there is no excuse!

I will never go to that site again!

I have to make a train, so please read a few of my other posts as well as responses to those posts from other readers. It will clarify my position on sarcasm.

LGR!

So if we lose tonight then we play the second game 7 tomorrow?

 

[TheTakedown]

Guaranteed win: dress a new forward, scratch the prior one.

Game 1: Jesper Fast (win)
Game 2: (loss)
Game 3: Dan Carcillo (win)
Game 4: (loss)
Game 5: JT Miller (win)
Game 6: (loss)
Game 7: ???

LOLOLOL

This post made me literally laugh out loud!

So true

 

[MatthewNYR]

Anyone going to Flying Puck tonight? Do you think the rain is going to drive people away?

 

[Doctor King Schultz]

No, only if we win tonight.

 

[Glennsoe]

The Pens will hve 2 days more rest than the winner of this series...

We should've locked it Down in 4...

Now let's bag it up and steal the show...

 

[RGY]

Is Diaz going to get in the lineup tonight? Should've been in over John Moore from the get go. I know Moore hasn't been bad, but Diaz has more experience and the better shot.

 

[Beer League Sniper]

Nash is a ******* slug. I just wish he could find the sack to play like he did in that CBJ game late in the season. Probably won't happen though.

My prediction:
Lundqvist uses up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a, and goes godmode. Rangers win 2-0 on a goal from Stepan with an empty netter from D. Moore.

 

[sark76]

play carcillo tonight for god sake.

amen!!!!!
