    I want to know how many are empty net goals:lol3.

    Let us be honest, he has not lived up yo expectations. He just doesn't have that same spark he had from 07-09. I don't know if it is the fear of suspension or what, but he doesn't walk the line anymore. I miss shit like the Miller hit. When I saw that I thought he was back:cry.

    He could be traded for a lot in return. I would be open to hearing offers

    Eh, he is just letting Marchand be the bad boy for a while.

    This game is crazy! :loco

    Bryz may not be afraid of bears; he should be afraid of clearing the puck.

    This is hard to watch.


    And I have to listen to this ass clown from the CBC. I know he doesn't like the Flyers but FFS man...

    The refs will not call a penalty on the Devils now. Not for the two interferences, not for Carter catching a break away puck...

    P.S.

    we should have been hitting like this all series.

    Already nonplussed with the teams in the West final, I'm suddenly not all that interested in the East either.

    May cancel my cable earlier in the summer than anticipated. :dunno

    I thought the Flyers were going to win in 5, not the Devils. :norton

    +1. Although I hate NJ as a state and team, I would like to see Adam Oates get a cup. The way he has been rejected by the NHL hall of fame is a disgrace. The Bruins should have retired his number. They should have picked him up as an assistant coach when they had the chance.

    Bryz wasn't the problem in this series. I would even go so far as to say he was the best Flyer vs. The Devils. That ridiculous Puck handling incident aside. I think the injuries on defense finally caught up to them. Tired defenseman spending minute upon minute in their own zone took its toll. The good news is, this team is very young and will only get better. But they're going to need to find a replacement for Pronger and that may require trading one of those young players. Also, as good as Jagr was in the regular season, I'm not so sure resigning him would be the best move. But I could go dither way on that one.

    The Rangers almost pulled it off again, but after a bit of a shady goal, they were left only 30 seconds to come back from 2-1.

    Looks like the refs could have called goaltender interference on their goal, but there wasn't enough time to score the necessary second goal to force overtime.

    So it's game 7.

    Playoff hockey-- it'll make you nuts.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb and say... Caps!

    Because the way this playoffs is going, it is the only pick that makes sense. :loco

    That's exactly why playoff hockey is the best in all of sports. It's unpredictable and anything can happen!

    game is killing me. Caps looked like shit for15 minutes in the first period, but seemed to have pulled it together in the 2nd so far at least.

    I'm feeling a 3rd period is going to be ours..overtime will be anyones calls...till then :freaky

    2-0 Rangers by Del Zotto!

    Ovie gives up the puck, falls on his arse, then lays there for a moment and finally cruised to the bench while watching the goal.

    Caps just score


    2-1
