CLANK!
Was hoping to get a Nola win, should have known better. Now I'm mad about that.Good god why?
Wings love giving up two goal leads, simmer down.Sometime it just ain't your night. 2 broken sticks, essentially 5 on 2 and nothing. Hopefully tomorrow night is a 2 point game.
He was great in '13 when the Wings beat the Yotes in the First and then lost in 7 to the "Hawks. Besides that he's been underwhelming in big games.Jimmy Howard in a big game ... unfortunately, I've seen this act a couple of times since the 2004 Hockey East final.
They've looked tired for almost a week now. Got their doors blown off in Pittsburgh and the PP bailed them out against the Sens.Just not our night. They better get their #### together tomorrow.
I still haven't recovered from this first overtime.He was great in '13 when the Wings beat the Yotes in the First and then lost in 7 to the "Hawks. Besides that he's been underwhelming in big games.
I wonder who gets the start tomorrow in Boston. If they win tonight, I'd start Mrazek because Howard isn't getting them out of the 1st round if they actually get in. Mrazek just ran out of gas here at the end, maybe after this rest he can recover.
Babcock is overrated!Winner, winner chicken ####### dinner!![]()
Two more points and the streak goes to 25.
That penalty kill when 2 players were without a stick was crazy. I'm sure its happened before but I can't recall ever seeing it.He was great in '13 when the Wings beat the Yotes in the First and then lost in 7 to the "Hawks. Besides that he's been underwhelming in big games.

Yeah I knowThat penalty kill when 2 players were without a stick was crazy. I'm sure its happened before but I can't recall ever seeing it.
I think Howard should start tomorrow. He was spectacular tonight. Who would have thought he would be so important right now. Going to be a tough one tomorrow with the short turnaround time.
Time to dig deep and get it done.![]()
Think it must have had to do with the last game at Rexall. They needed to clean up the confetti and pull actual championship and good HOF player banners out of the rafters to move to their new house.Weird start time for that last game in Edmonton tonight. What's up with that?
Lets go Islanders.
Ill leave this here as a pre Game warm up

Salo. I wondered that myself. Thought maybe so the rest of Canada could watch at a reasonable hour. Of course that wasn't the case, Ontario and East got to watch the thrilling Leaf/ Blue Jacket game because, as you know, everyone in Ontario MUST be a Leaf fan. Total B.S.Weird start time for that last game in Edmonton tonight. What's up with that?
Yeah, it has been a bit strange. The Islanders play five games in the final seven days of the season, the Flyers play four -- but part of that is because their game Sunday is a makeup from a snowstorm in January.I know it has been said before but scheduling is terrible. 3 games yesterday, 13 games today, 1 game tomorrow then 15 games Saturday.
I don't want to hear anyone tell me that professional athletes give 100% every minute of every game ever again.Desperation time. Flyers going all out.
Who said that?I don't want to hear anyone tell me that professional athletes give 100% every minute of every game ever again.
If the Flyers played every minute of every game the way they've played this third period they'd have 150 points this season.
Of course there's different levels of adrenaline. You're not going to go all out down 5-2 in the 3rd against Pittsburgh. But you damn well better down 3-1 with your playoff life on the line.I don't want to hear anyone tell me that professional athletes give 100% every minute of every game ever again.

Listen to any 40-year-old ex-pro on an ESPN radio show and you'd swear it was unthinkable that teams ever took a shift off.Who said that?
