Fuck Yeah!!!!!!   
If you go to a Stars game, don’t have a blast, don’t make lifelong friends, and wake up saying I love Texas. . . It’s your own damn fault


I have to agree with you.  I have been 3 or 4 times over the past few years when the Caps are in town to face them.  Very nice arena, knowledgeable fans and they really do have a good atmosphere.

Dan O'Halloran strikes again - part of the crew that called Game 7 VGK - Sharks.  Eakin with, at most, a 2 minute crosscheck on Pavelski, who bumps into Stasny and lands awkwardly on his head on the ice and bleeds - so the refs penalizes the outcome and give the Sharks a 5 minute major.  Bullshit call, but ....shitty calls happen every series.   VGK shat the bed giving up 4 goals on a 5 minute major.

Most beautiful thing is that POS Ryan Reaves is done for the year.

4 goals on one major . . . Jeebus
Sucks for VGK though, but a streaky goalie is a streaky goalie


And I don't think any of them were "soft".. Least not in game 7. All 4 PP goals were deflections, screens type of goals and the ender was pretty much a breakaway that got behind the D and just beat him. Crazy! No, it was bananas!!  :wackysmile:

Can you imagine these boards if this fate happened in a game 7 of a Caps series?  That sucks hard for Vegas, but these here boards would damn well explode.

So which team goes on to win it this year?  Definitely a path for just about anyone now.  I maybe might have to pull for Columbus.  Honestly, other than beating the Caps, I'd be okay with Carolina winning...meh, maybe not.




I watched Babcock's interview after Toronto lost...it was like everyone expected him to be fired for them losing?  All NBC talking heads discussing whether he should be brought back.  Really?  Hey if Toronto doesn't want him back, I know a team in the Metro that could use a good coach.

Knights-Sharks refs won't officiate in 2nd round

Dan O'Halloran, maybe O'Halloran will take notice and not have shit calls for us next season too.

I always understood these guys got the playoff games based on performance. Performing to do what should be investigated. Much like the MLB, this league has some bad officials that should be forced to retire. OHalloran is one.

I don’t know much about O’Hallorans back ground, but the IRS or the Canuck version of an IRS needs to go through his accounts like colposcopy.   Does anyone know what the over/under of the VGK/Sharks series, or just Game 7 was?

I'm sure you have noticed that on this forum we call out only one ref as being a consistently bad ref and that man is Dan O'Halloran. We've been calling him out for many years. I'm happy to see him get the recognition he deserves.
Be careful what you ask for America; you just might get it.

Yep. . . he can only be completely incompetent or flat out on the take.

Nice finish by the Canes in OT win tonight. That bank shot pass behind the net was sweet.

Yep!  But, a 7 game series made an 8 game by OT, and being down two forwards will start

Whoever put money on Carolina at the beginning of the playoffs is going to have a nice payday...

Yeah  :snicker:
I think Islanders were expecting to play against us ,as a result they just became demotivated once we could not go through Canes.

Ol' Trotz got himself in a pickle with the incoming Hurricane bearing down..  :snicker:  Columbus or Boston either one will wipe their ass with whoever they play in the ECF..

Possible, yet far from guaranteed.  NYI is suffering from the Sweep Vs 7 Game w/OT syndrome.  It’s very possible for that Hurricane to burn down to a tropical storm and the Isles get their stride back

If the Canes win over the Islander, it makes them beating the Caps pain a little less.

But only a little.  A sweep would also lessen a bit more of the pain.  Where in the hell was this Carolina team all season?

I think I've watched a total of 10 minutes of the Canes Isls series, I may have to watch game 4
