Must-See TV is going to be in net for the Pens in game five against the Islanders.

Part of me is happy about this.

San Jose won all three against Vancouver this year, with one in overtime. So you know what's going to happen, of course:

Canucks will sweep them.

lololololololol hindsight is hilarious

I normally wouldn't root for the Maple Leafs, but I love how pissy those "Toronto Stronger" signs make everyone.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2854 on:** 13 May 2013, 05:56 »

Y'all can put me down for Chicago in six, Kings in seven, Pens in five.

I really don't have a good feeling about the Bruins tonight.

That has to be the worst choke job since Buckner.

Rangers bullpen, 2011 playoffs.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2860 on:** 14 May 2013, 08:13 »

No, this was worse.

Because the Rangers didn't have the entire freakin' country seemingly rooting for them.

valley_parade · « **Reply #2861 on:** 14 May 2013, 09:19 »

If you think most Canadians are gonna hop on the Leafs bandwagon, dude, I dunno.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2862 on:** 14 May 2013, 15:39 »

Heckuva lot more Leafs fans than there are Texas Rangers fans.

~~mustang6172~~ · « **Reply #2863 on:** 15 May 2013, 21:41 »

So the Minnesota Vikings showed pictures of their new glass dome stadium.

The Astrodome had a glass roof. It produced so much glare from the sun it had to be painted over, which in turn killed the grass field. This has billion-dollar blunder written all over it.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2864 on:** 16 May 2013, 03:29 »

Just remember - this is the same city that had their inflatable roof stadium deflate at least three times since it was built over 30 years ago.

Surprised that U of M would play baseball there, instead of at Target Field or their own facility.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2866 on:** 16 May 2013, 12:57 »

U of M is just across the river from the Met. I think it was the only way to convince the legislature to allow it to happen.

It'll probably just be for spring games when there's still too much snow outside.

Don't forget high school teams were agreeing to play at the Metrodome at 3 AM last March to get out of the snow.

Patrick · « **Reply #2868 on:** 22 May 2013, 00:54 »

That's right, Kings, if we have to play without one of our star offense because one of your guys is a pussy/idiot, you get an early whistle to end a play, and therefore that goal is void.

Okay so I do feel kinda guilty for that but seriously, that Torres suspension is HORSESHIT

valley_parade · « **Reply #2869 on:** 22 May 2013, 11:42 »

No, Raffi Torres is a grade-A, repeat offender piece of shit that should have been banned from hockey years ago.

But we're talking about a league that still lets Todd Bertuzzi hold down a multi-million dollar job, and dude should probably be in jail for attempted murder.

valley_parade · « **Reply #2870 on:** 23 May 2013, 11:02 »

Patrick · « **Reply #2871 on:** 23 May 2013, 16:40 »

The head contact on the play in question was not Raffi's fault. You can clearly see the opposing player look at Torres and duck his head before Torres hit him.

Nikolai · « **Reply #2872 on:** 23 May 2013, 18:41 »

Don't change the fact that Torres is a PoS...

Patrick · « **Reply #2873 on:** 24 May 2013, 08:53 »

That has nothing to do with the fact that the call was bullshit.

valley_parade · « **Reply #2874 on:** 24 May 2013, 18:14 »

You get a guy who's got a well-known reputation for being a general shithead like Torres, and yeah, calls will go against him.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2875 on:** 24 May 2013, 18:29 »

Reputation is everything when it comes to the ShanaBan.

Don't worry, Patrick. Your season will be over Sunday.

You still have a 50/50 shot at losing the series on Tuesday.

Patrick · « **Reply #2880 on:** 27 May 2013, 13:57 »

hah, go ahead, talk shit, you're our good luck charm when you do that. You thought we'd get swept by the Canucks, bahahaha

Death, Taxes, and San Jose never gets out of the conference semis - much less the conference finals.

valley_parade · « **Reply #2882 on:** 28 May 2013, 20:42 »

Actual fact. Postpone it all you want, all it does is give the Bruins more time to catch their breaths, healthy up, and whoop the Pens.

Hey QC, do you play tennis? I found a pretty decent racket at a thrift store over the weekend, and am gonna start playing with some friends of mine that were on the varsity team in high school (though geez that was like 8 years ago).

jwhouk · « **Reply #2883 on:** 28 May 2013, 20:47 »

Kings punched their ticket to the NHL Final Four. Now we're only waiting on Hawks/Wings.

I think I tried once or twice, but I was raised on racquetball, and could never get past the fact of not having walls to use. Speaking of which, I need to find a racquetball partner. I'd enjoy getting back into it. And also rock climbing. Not that the two are related...

ScruffCardinale · « **Reply #2890 on:** 30 May 2013, 06:43 »

would love to see the hawks and bruins in the finals. long as one of those two win the cup i'm happy with the season in spite of my devils not making it to the post season. while i don't dislike the penguins as much as say the rangers or flyers i do still dislike them a great deal (mostly just cuz of a small handful of people i dislike from western PA that i don't want to see happy) and obviously i'm still a bit sore at the kings after last year.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2891 on:** 30 May 2013, 07:37 »

My allegiance in the playoffs switched as soon as #92 took over in net in Pittsburgh.

Nikolai · « **Reply #2892 on:** 30 May 2013, 08:59 »

Just about all my friends from back home in Alberta are temporary Pens fans because no matter how bad the Flames suck, they all still want to see Iginla hoist the cup. Nothing would bring me greater pleasure than watching those dreams be crushed.

valley_parade · « **Reply #2893 on:** 31 May 2013, 16:59 »

Bruins in 6, Kings in 7.

Bruins beat LA in 5.

I'm currently watching the Pittsburgh-Boston hockey game in French, because that's the version that's on TV in Quebec. I have no idea what the announcers are saying, and I kinda like it that way.

jwhouk · « **Reply #2896 on:** 05 Jun 2013, 23:02 »

You did at least understand "BER-GER-ON! BER-GER-ON! BER-GER-ON!" being yelled repeatedly there at the end, right?

Patrick · « **Reply #2897 on:** 06 Jun 2013, 17:55 »

that whole game was fucking awesome. also I was unaware how goofy Tuukka Rask looks in his official photo.

cesium133 · « **Reply #2898 on:** 06 Jun 2013, 18:57 »

I'm holding onto a little tiny hope for Pens in seven, but I know it's going to be Bruins in four...

Nikolai · « **Reply #2899 on:** 08 Jun 2013, 21:12 »

Hawks in seven.
