Good game. Terrible clear attempt by Staal

What a great first night. The entire Hockey world should be scared of the Canucks!

[yeahyeahIRISH]

[ACamp1900]

Well, if you ever make the trip out to SoCal, I would gladly give you my tickets to a Kings/Flyers game for free. Seriously, just let me know if you ever make it out.

?????.... I'm right around the block playa...

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

Hawks are snake bitten.

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

I'll float some tickets your way my friend. Are you only interested in Pens tickets? Because they don't come around very often.

I'm interested in hockey tickets... Isles game with a pee-wee hockey debacle during intermission would be celebrated in my household... whatever game you and your wife don't want

You got it. I will keep you in mind. Our seats are in the upper bowl, but we are the first row in the section so there is no one in front of us and our aisle is wider with more leg room. Good seats right on the goal line at the end where the Kings shoot twice. Next season I will definitely send some tickets your way!

Hopefully the wings beat the yotes back up to Winnipeg

I certainly hope that this is not the case but I do believe that this is exactly what will happen. I live in the Phoenix area and my wife, son and I have season tickets to the Coyotes. Unfortunately the Coyotes have been done in by inept ownership and an equally inept coach (Gretzky). He may have been the best player ever but he was a terrible coach. Personally I believe that the biggest problem the Coyotes have is the local media. They almost refuse to cover the Coyotes. Last year the day after a playoff game with the Red Wings the front page of the only local newspaper was dominated by an article regarding the Cardinals hiring a new defensive coordinator and the Diamondbacks game the previous night. The Cardinals, in the off season, get more coverage than the Coyotes do during their regular season. Believe it or not the Coyotes do have a very dedicated fan base, yes it's a very small one but it's dedicated. With the right owner and with more media coverage I believe the Coyotes can be successful here in Phoenix. This is probably wishful thinking on my part but other than N.D. I don't cheer for anyone besides the Coyotes, and living in Arizona I don't get to attend many N.D. games.

Oh baby - 1 hour 30 minutes until B's/Habs faceoff. Always an absolute dandy of a playoff series.

Should be a good one. Lucky you get versus. I have to watch the flyers on the sabres network and they are some of the worst announcers

 

[youngblood24]

I'll get to watch B's/Habs on NESN I hope - looks that way from the guide. Wish/Hope they broadcast another game (Philly/Buff) at the same time but i doubt it.

That Flyers/Sabs series is going to be veryyyy interesting. Philly should win, sure, but Buffalo is pretty tough. Best of luck to the Flyers.

So im sick, got bored and watched my first NBA playoff games in a while between hockey and the NBA playoffs are no way no how even close to the overall awesomeness of the NHL playoffs. Just saying

 

[GBdomer]

i agree with you 100 percent. GO hawks!

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

NHL is amazing....the passion, the speed, the overall ORA of the game is amazing. I gave up on NBA...and as far as MLB I only watch in October.

I like the NBA (playoffs) alot, but there is no comparison when it comes to the NHL playoffs. I have a few friends that dont follow the NHL that much, but I can get them to watch an NHL playoff game. Even they cant deny the buzz and excitement around the NHL playoffs.


How about the Kings tonight?? 4-0 thrashing of the Sharks, and looked good in every phase of the game. wow

I'm so sick of hearing about the NBA... how do people get excited about a three point play in the first quarter when it really doesn't impact the game in the long run... then you wait around for the last two minutes (the exciting part) and it's either a blowout, or there is a timeout every twenty seconds... ugh...

give me sports where the game can be decided on any given play... NHL, NFL, MLB...


that's just me.

Big game for the orange and black tonight. Brian Boucher + Michael Leighton as the 2 goalies = A very nervous KPENN

Several big games tonight, but I think the biggest is Boston v. Montreal. If the Knicks had won last night the city of Boston might have had a meltdown. People are freaking out up here about the Bruins ****ting the bed in the playoffs again - very fun to see. Will be routing hard for the Habs tonight.

Yeah the bruins are in trouble. That team is very hard to figure out. They've lost 6 straight playoff games now

That's crazy to think about considering their offensive and defensive talent, as well as the best goaltender this year.

I know. It's hard to believe. If they don't get it turned around people are gonna be looking for jobs.

As much as I hate the habs it would be the ultimate f you considering the season series they had

O definately. What was the score of the last game they played, 7-0? Choke artists.

Can't remember. It was something like that. Plus all the physicality and bad blood. Crazy how it's turned out do far

 

[KPENN]

Good win for the flyers tonight. Man the playoffs are not good for my nerves

 

[RallySonsOfND]

WIIIIIIIIIIIIINGS!

I love how the 'yotes fans are doing a white out, it matches our uniform!

I find it idiotic when the home teams in the NHL do a white out.

Maybe I'm looking to far into it, but Phoenix looks like a team that knows it's moving.
