First round exit!

quovadis13

5th it is......

enlightenedbum

Well, that's the worst case scenario.

Jayricho

I wouldn't be upset to see Nashville win it all......but I can't stand Tootoo. Then again, does anyone who isn't a Preds fan like him?

enlightenedbum

The fucking train whistles are the worst. THE WORST.

Even worse than the obnoxious terrible country music they play in that arena. HAAAAAAAATE

Burtletoy

I dont have sound here.

Why is MAF on the bench? He isnt injured, or he wouldnt be on the bench. He was playing fine, it was 2-1.

What happened?

enlightenedbum

Apparently it was Bylsma's plan to get both some work today.

Burtletoy

Oh.

...

Cant let MAF get to that 42 win mark, might go to his head.

Burtletoy

50!!!

Kinda wish this game actually meant something.

TheSmacker

50 for Geno!

MVP! MVP!

He was the goalie of record when he left, so he was hoping.

and then Johnson fell over while trying to butterfly from post to post (which was completely unnecessary in that situation)

enlightenedbum

Well, yeah. That was kind of sad.

Burtletoy

and I was serious.

Im going to make a new thread after tonight/tomorrow; for the playoffs.

so be ready for some penguin-centric stats and stuff if no one makes a new thread before me.

Burtletoy

fuckin malkin being the wrong kind of angry.

its much better when he decides to score 5 points versus when he decides to crosscheck and elbow people.


blah

It'll be just like an NBC Sports broadcast!

I was planning on it once we have the matchups all clinched, so after the Kings/Sharks game.

srsly. Thank god we get CBC here in Seattle, or I'd die of an announcer-induced coronary before the end of the first round.

Burtletoy

its funny cause roenik millbury and jones all despise the penguins and bitch about them nonstop on nbc feeds

The Fantasy League championship is right down to the wire. The San Jose/LA game will decide everything.

I cannot believe how close it is - I am still predicting a Pufnstuf victory, though.

Dranyth

Good christ, I know the Avs game didn't mean anything, but did they have to make that so obvious? That was completely pathetic.

enlightenedbum

So Vancouver's basically got the President's Trophy locked up. Only thing left is who's going to Vancouver and who's going to St. Louis. 2-1 in the third right now, with LA headed to St. Louis.

enlightenedbum

2-2

Cobalt60

I'd rather the Sharks play against Vancouver instead of the two solid rock goalies from St. Louis.

Nova_C

Jesus. There is a 0.6 spread between me and Pufnstuf right now.

This is Stanley Cup game 7 OT shit right here.

enlightenedbum

Pavelski clangs one off the right post with about 70 seconds left. OT in San Jose.

enlightenedbum

Sharks win, Boyle.

Nova_C

Holy fucking shit!

With that last goal, Pufnstuf drops 1 point from his 0.1 point lead and I take the victory!

EDIT: Or not. Apparently there was some more calculating to do. :P Pufnstuf wins the championship by a hair!

EDIT2: 1.1 point differential. Couldn't have asked for a better nail biter.

enlightenedbum

New playoff oriented thread up. Gloriously free of propaganda, though I do make fun of Toronto.

Matrias

Kings it is.

Let's do 2010 right (and 2011, too).
