The Trophy?

who the fuck knows? Most people had carolina missing the playoffs last year and look what happened there. Ditto for calgary in 04 and anaheim in 03. With good coaching, a solid goalie, and young gritty players, any team can win these days, although it would be nice to see a detroit or toronto win t...

I doubt anything the Panthers do this season will mark "going out on a high note", either...

I bought a sens jersey about 12 years ago... It was better when they sucked. It was cool to see them win, but then they became this rediculous powerhouse team. Now i cant stand them.

"They also want to trade Giguere but no one wants him." I'm sure more than half the league would be quite happy to have Giguere. Giguere won 30 games in 60 regular season appearances last season with a 2.66 goals against average yeah... nobody wants that. At 4 million next year for a rent...

that better not be sarcasm, son. Cloutier was the man. So was Markannen and blackburn. And now we got Lundy and monotya coming up. OOh yeah mother fucker. no its not sarcasm, we went over this... i refer to all ex rangers as 'former ranger great so and so' oh and its a shame about Blackburn, i like...

speaking of former ranger greats, i must have missed Cloutier to the Kings.... I need to keep more up to date with the rumors and trades.

I think im a casual Canucks fan. I always default to their games on center ice if the Rangers or the Lightning arent playing. Their home crowd always impresses me with how crazy they get.

I read an article where they have implimented some sort of new puck dynamic in 07, so it behaves more like a real puck would. The guy reviewing it shot at the goalie, it went off the goalie's glove, smacked a defenseman in the head, and went in the net. And thus begins the new EA feature: The Bullsh...

Even better is that you lost a shitty defenseman (Tom Poti), to a division rival (The Islanders).
Things are looking up.

Brendan Shanahan is not worth 1/8th of the salary cap.
He's no Fernando Pisani.

youre not going to see what they can do with the next gen until they stop making current gen. all the games that they are making now have to be ported to all systems so they have to hold back the capabilities EA is probably doing what they did with madden, and the ncaa football game: Make a brand n...

did the nhl vid games use the new rules? yeah, but it didnt make any difference in the game play, since it always had 2 line passing off by default, so the game was wide open regardless. supposedly they rebuilt NHL07 from the ground up, so its a brand new game. I think the last time they did that w...

Marc Denis to TB for Freddy Modin and Fredrik Norrena.

its about time we addressed the goalie situation. About a year too late.

does anyone know the details of the OLN deal? The league needs to be back on ESPN as soon as possible. With the numbers OLN drew in, i'd be suprised if the NHL was even on OLN in a few years. I think ESPN is happy they ran, unfortunately. Well, here's to looking forward to 20 or so total games on O...

Unless it's the Leafs. They sell out all the time, it's impossible to get tickets, and they never win! yeah i give canada a pass on hockey. The Leafs, the Habs, etc... most of the teams have an awesome fanbase up there. However to make the same argument i guess you'd have to look at the Blue Jays, ...

edmonton's arena was louder Yes way louder, Carolina is a typical American hockey city, it's great when things are great and shit when the teams average. thats not just hockey though, thats every sport. In the 90's if i wanted to go to a Knicks game id have to sell my first born, it was impossible....

Hopefully the game ends up going to overtime, and overtime lasts nearly a month, so we have less time to wait until next season.

axlash wrote:I'm just shocked at how well markannen has played. That's an ex ranger right there baby.

you have to say it right. All ex-Rangers are known as "Former Ranger Great".
I.E. Former Ranger Great, Jussi Markkanen.

its just how it is. there can be no argument on this.

Wayne wrote:its the crowd. don't be surprised if they win the next one aswell

i agree with this. I still say Carolina takes it all , though.

At least now we've got a series. I hate it when the finals go 4 and out.

OH SNAP!

who scored?!?!

brindamour i believe

this is a great game.

You all realize, of course, that the key to carolina's success is Cory Stillman. He's with the Bolts, they win the cup. He's with the Canes, they'll win the cup. When he gets traded to the Blues, or the Pens, they'll win the cup also. Write this down.
