Oof, up 2 goals early, then...
Not the most stellar goal tending by either team.  I just can't get into it.  I fell asleep some time in the 3rd

I’m not rooting for Carolina, I’m rooting against Vegas

Think Im just the opposite.. I just can't do Carolina. I can't do Vegas either, but "Dowder".. Still hoping they play to a tie in game 7, for so long, both teams just forfeit.  :rofl:

I just cant do either.  Although i don't think I realized it has been 20 years since the Canes won the Cup.  I'm not sure why I don't like the Canes, but I do now that I dislike Vegas more, so I guess...F Vegas, go Canes.  Vegas NEVER winning a cup ever would be fine by me.

I didn’t realize Dowd wasn’t on the Cup squad here, he signed that summer. This is likely his only chance at a Cup. But Vegas needs to win for that.

Too bad these games are so boring.  You could get interested if it weren't Vegas and Canes.
Funny, i watch and I don't want either team to win.  :wackysmile:

I turned the game off after 2, with the VGN up 4-0. How they came close to losing that game is beyond me. VGN 5-4 in double ot. Embarrassing win! lol They literally should of/could of had 7 or 8 goals in regulation. Couple got waived off. 3 or 4 break aways. Penalty shot.. They better learn to play with a lead..

Vegas scored the fastest hat trick in the Cup finals, the Canes tied it up with the fastest three goals in Cup finals. I thought the Canes were going to win one there.

Laviolette gets another gig in LA. He keeps getting hired and has been a crap coach for years. He totally set back the Caps franchise. I don't get why the NHL keeps recycling these guys. There have to be younger up and coming coaches that are way better.

VGN better learn how to kill a penalty too.. Seems like every time MUST have a kill, they give one up.

i have to admit i was pulling for carolina to win game 4 after just not quite coming back in game 3.  Net minding has not been great in any game.
I just don't want Vegas to win.
Curious who Carolina starts in game 5.  I'd go with the young guy.  Can't imagine they won't.  Anderson seems to be out of it this series.

I can't figure out why you'd want the "rival" that knocked us out the playoffs the last 2 times, to win over the team we beat in the SCF??  :huh: I get hating them both, I do.. Just wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I rooted for Carolina to beat, ANYONE. They've eclipsed all other shit teams in the east as our most hated rival. Better just come to terms with that now..  :raised-eyebrow: :snicker:
