Going to game one of Canucks and Hawks, fucking JACKED!
|
This might be a case of "Be careful of what you wish for..." but I am excited for the Hawks in round 1. Dallas would have been 4-5 games, leaving the Nucks unprepared for round 2. If the Nucks win, they get a monkey off there back, a huge confidence boost, and will carry that through the playoffs no matter who they face. However if the Hawks win, Vigneult is gone and some major changes will need to take place. Doesn't matter how good your regular season was if you can't get out of the 1st round or beat a certain team.

Predictions time folks!
East: Caps vs Rangers: <b>Caps in 5</b> Flyers vs Sabres: <b>Sabres in 7</b> - Upset of Rd1, its Miller time. Bruins vs Habs:<b> Bruins in 6</b> - Hope Im wrong in this prediction, either way it's going to be a great series. Montreal will riot if the Habs lose this on home ice. Bolts vs Pens: <b>Bolts in 6</b> West Nucks vs Hawks: <b>Nucks in 4</b> - Fuck you Hawks. I know this probably wont be a sweep...but one can dream no? Sharks vs Kings: <b>Sharks in 7</b> - LA is hurt, but Mitchell Doughty Handzus should be able to shut down Thorton and co. Wings vs Coyotes: <b>Wings in 6</b> Ducks vs Preds: <b>Ducks in 7</b> - Ducks have the best line in the NHL right now. Speed Size Skill. Weber has his work cut out for him. |

I will make my avatar the Habs logo if they beat the Bruins.

Draft Lottery -
1. Edmonton Oilers 2. Colorado Avalanche 3. Florida Panthers 4. New Jersey Devils (Won Draft Lottery) 5. New York Islanders |
I was telling people at work who are Caps fans (all 2 of them) that they will Choke again this year in the first round and neither believed me. They're 3-10 in the first round since 1992.
|
Stats like that are so fucking retarded. A more reasonable stat which is still meaningless is that the Caps are 1-2 in the first round in their last three seasons. At least the teams from the past 3 years have a lot of the same guys on them. Nobody who was on the Capitals in 1992 has anything to do with them now.

Edmonton with 1st overall again, willing to bet they take Hopkins.
|
They should take Larsson since their defence is shit, but RNH is a Western Canada boy, so they'll take him
|
Petry got that call up in the early season and has been great for them, so they might now have to take him.
Hall - Hopkins - Eberle :drool: |

No matter what teams we all root for, we all can agree on one thing. There is nothing like Playoff Hockey. Let the greatest playoffs in Sports begin.
|
Lou RAPED Campbell with only a few minutes left in the first. 2-0 Nucks after 20. F'n amazing game so far. Nucks are pumped...all 4 lines. Lapiere looking like he did for the Habs last year, Hansen makes Hossa look like a snail in a foot race.

I think this series will only last 5 games, but those are going to be some tough games. I look for one of the 'tards to run Luongo over in Game 3 or 4. |
Hansen's goal was a beauty!!!! I just about jumped outta my chair, lol.
GO CANUCKS!!!!!! Pens win 3-0. I feel bad that I loaded up on Tampa players in my work's playoff pool even though the Pens have always been my favorite team for 21 years. Guess this is what I get for doubting the Pens. :nono: |
Love it!
|
Kesler is a fridge.
|
Bobby Fucking Lou!
|
And before people think I am a bandwagoner, I only want Vancouver to win so that they face Montreal in the final.

Montreal wont get past Boston. |
Salo and Ballard as your 5-6 pair... Salo still has a slapper that would make Al Iafrate cringe, Ballard is good on both ends. Edler (might as well call him Elder considering his veteran presence despite his age...) has 3 games played since major back surgery, he's playing tough, putting up the body, laying down the blocked shots.
The only negative I can think of is with the Shitcago Blackcocks 4 posts. Toews looks like a lost boy looking for puppy... This is a huge win. Only thing I am afraid of is if this goes to 7 games...the Nucks are going to be dead come round 2. |

Rangers/Caps
Good God why did Tortella(whatever the spelling) get another job? I cannot stand him. He won a cup that Ray Charles could have coached to victory. |
Quote:
I hope you're wrong. It's hard cheering against the B's considering I've always liked them, and they have Lucic and Thomas who are my fav non Nuckers. The Habs are Canadian, and as a Canadian myself...it's been..18 years? Since a Canadian team won a cup. Jesus Christ. Someone born the last time Canada won a cup can now legally vote or buy porn.. |

I fear a big bad mean team like Philly or Boston a lot more than anything else. Skill and talent vs skill and talent...Nucks win every single time. Its only the team that can grind and wear down the Nucks that will beat them. |
Hey guys. Just putting this out there if anybody is interested. I've been involved in sim hockey leagues for about 5 years now. Basically, there's 30 gm's and you draft a team and manage it, like trading, setting your lines, entry drafts and such. Well I just joined a new league where you create your own player and you develop him. He gets drafted by one of the gm's in the league or signed to a contract and you assign points and such. Sort of like create a player mode in NHL 2011. For exaple, if you want your player to be a scorer, or a defensive defencman, you allocate your points towards certain attributes. I'm a goon right now so most of my points went towards fighting and checking. Anyways, this league is always looking for new players. It's alot of fun.
If you're interested or just want to check it out here's the link. http://z7.invisionfree.com/The_SHL/index.php If you join, make sure you note that "belak" referred you as I get 2 attribute points for every player I refer. |
Signed up, awaiting approval.
|
Awesome! Now that you created your player, gm's will approach you with contract offers. Your GM will pretty much guide you through everything.
|
This sounds awesome. Love that you are a goon.
|
It goes pretty in depth. People do play by play of the games, write scouting reports, articles, stuff like that.
|
Thats awesome, I am wondering how the contract offer things work for rookies though.
|
Rookies get a one year deal because the draft is next season. Then you can take that money and buy attribute points.
|
No what I mean is do we get approached with offers from GM's now?
|
Yeah, gm's will send you a private message with offers. Usually wait till after supper when they get home from work.
|
Im kinda excited, sounds like alot of fun.
|
It's alot of fun. A simulator called STHS sims the games and you have a detailed scoring sheet to view after the game is done.
