Game seven Wednesday night - what a freakin' series!!

 

Sweet....

I don't expect the Bruins to just rollover and go away either, there is going to be some real hitting going on in that one.

 

Right.
And Russia had their all star roster out there.

And scoring 7

 

That Canuck goalie is awful, they'd do better with a cardboard cutout then with him.

He just gave up two easy goals within 1 minute of each other in the third period of an elimination game, cripes is he garbage right now.

 

Great comeback by Chicago

Hopefully they can close it out

6-5 right now

 

Make that 7-5, he's given up 3 goals in 4 minutes.

 

Kind of funny

1. Luongo has a good chance to be Canadas goalie in 2010
2. Unified says Russia will give up 5 goals which Chicago did tonight
3. You say Russia will score 7 which Chicago did on Luongo tonight

So you 2 predicted 7-5

 

I can't really blame the officials when after the first few games he played worse, he had several 4+ goals allowed games.

But you do have to hand it to the Blackhawks, they took the games over.

 

Another game where the Pens badly outplayed the Caps and Varly kept them in. What a series so far!

Hopefully they can figure him out on Wednesday night!

 

I believe last time Russia and Canada played at the Olympics, its the Canadians that had trouble scoring losing 2 - 0.

 

Just wondered how you hockey fans think it will go tonight against the Bruins and the Hurricanes. It's CRAZY up here. Everybody's got flag's on their cars and stuff. I guess they're not used to that going this far in a season up here. You guys think Boston will win, or Carolina takes it tonight at home? Thanks for the input.

 

Sorry Unified but I think tonight is the night the Canes knock out the #1 seed

Ward has been dynamite and I see a 3-1 game

 

Another game 7 coming up. Ward will need to steal it

 

Two Game Sevens coming up, this should be some great hockey.

 

2-0 Anaheim after 2 so it could be 3 game 7's

 

Nice, the way I see it, the Red Wings are the premiere franchise in the NHL right now, a game seven involving them would be unexpected.

Pens and Caps, two of the top names in the NHL take their teams against each other, loser goes home.

And I'm personally invested in the Canes and Bruins due to home state loyalties....go Canes!

 

Gotta love game 7's!

GO PENS!

 

Can you say "domination"?

 

Go PENS!!!!!!

 

penguins

will they not die!

 

Nope.

 

you know, how is it that every time i see your response in the NHL thread i'm in for a bad response

 

this was alot like Boston - Atlanta first round series in NBA last year.
Nobody really thought that they could make a run at Boston..but they did. Playing back and forth, until game 7 in boston. Where they got smacked by like 35 points. lol

 

Cause it means the Pens are still winning, my friend.

Let go of your hate...come to the dark side....

By the way....LOVED how Ovechkin mailed it in after it was 4-0.

 

Here we come Unified. Are you nervous about game 7?

GO CANES !!!

 

Just curious Padre...anything to say about the Pens forechecking today?

 

Nah, I did not catch the whole game as the Pens jumped out to the huge lead and the game just did not interest me afterwards.

I'm glad your loving the Pens moving on though Pagan, but at this rate you may use up all the bandwith on thephins over in the Ladies Lounge...

 

lmfao @ sidney crosby doesn't have this in his drop down menu.

 

There's always more bandwidth bro.

And yes, I'm loving it. I've been hearing all about the Pens demise since the offseason when all those free agents left.

 

for a while there they were looking like they weren't even going to make the playoffs.

i would attribute the winnings to your new head coach. that guy lit a fire under their *** big time.

 

Yup...that and Gonchar's return.

 

Goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I don't know about you guys, but im sick of how inconsistent the nhl's officials are throughout these playoffs... they've been terrible in the wings/ducks game tonight. Its ruining the game... diehard canadian(and american) hockey fans will always love the game, but I can see why the casual american (and canadian) fans have abandoned it... the things that were penalties in the reg season, no longer are. Things that should be called now, arent one period, then are the next... Guys are getting thrown out of faceoffs due to the refs basically... not dropping the puck... at an alarming rate... bettman is slowly drilling the game into the ground. its now wonder ratings suck.
