GIROUX!!!!!!!!!!

 

[rockaction]

Wow. Giroux. Stick side high. Brilliant shot.

 

[HughHoney]

Great pace to ducks Caps and Halak just made a nasty glove save. 1-1 in the first.

 

[Billy Bats]

And Giroux says no thanks to the shootout. ####### beast mode.

Hawks are not trending in the right direction as of late.

It's fun to watch again. Well maybe not for Hawk64 and Christo.

Who is #23 for the Hawks? That was just lazy in neutral ice.

Versteeg. Never been known for his stellar defense.

While Giroux is playing out of his mind, Couturier is quietly becoming one of the best shutdown centermen in the league. And he's 21.

Whether you agree or disagree with the Jeff Carter and Mike Richards trades a couple years back, they netted the Flyers Couturier, Voracek, Brayden Schenn, and Wayne Simmonds. That's not a bad return at all.

 

[Bill Brasky]

Ducks do not look like the same team from befor the Olympic break. What happened?

 

[Billy Bats]

It's fun to

I wasn't a Carter fan so I didn't care about that one, but wasn't happy at all about the Richards trade. Adding to it I said we should've gotten Bernier in that deal when it happened, thought that was our chance to get a quality goalie and would've saved us from the Bryz debacle too. It will help when we trade Brayden for a quality dman this summer though. Not a big fan of his.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I like how all these western conference powers can't beat any of the eastern conference teams at home lately.

Anaheim=pretender

Wild over Ducks in round 1

I'll take that bet.

you'll take the huge favorite with home ice advantage? ok.

 

[Raider Nation]

Sharks have won 6 in a row, are at home playing Florida, and when I looked right before game time, they were -390.

Right on cue, 3-1 Panthers after 2.

 

[rockaction]

B's at ten straight.

Non-sequitur: As soon as I saw Julien behind Team Canada's bench, I got scared for the U.S. They started talking about it on talk radio, but whatever this system is -- and I admit I don't get it -- it's nuts.

3-2 Florida win. Lu with 52 saves.... 28 of them in the 3rd period.

Versteeg and he sucks.

 

[ItsOnlytheRiver]

Of course Halak made 43 saves against the Ducks. Of course.

 

[RUSF18]

I turned off the Rangers-Sens last night after the 1st, with the Sens up 2-1 and looking dominant, to watch a show with the wife. Flipped it back on to see it 7-3 NYR. That was one of the more surprising turns I've seen in a while. Rewound to watch what happened and holy crap those were a couple terrible goals given up by Lehner.

 

[AcerFC]

My son and I started our NHL stadium tour last night in Long Island.

I am not an Islander hater, my son was rooting for them since his uncle who he went with as well is an Islander fan.

I just think it is so sad what has happened there. The stadium is in a great location for the locals. The place should be packed every night. Sure it is a little outdated but I wish Hempstead would not have blocked what the owner wanted to do with the revitalization. There were so many empty seats and it looked like the team has already packed it in.

Anyway, we had a good time anyway and are planning on going to Devils-Caps in a few weeks. Figure we will hit two a year. My wife is even starting to look at places that my daughter and her can come as well like Niagra Falls (Toronto an hour and half away) and Miami.

around here you're supposed to complain about Julien, even when you're in the finals.

I do complain about him.

Soooo boring.

Helluva shot, terrible angle taken by Raanta. Philly played a great game last night.

You're the one making outlandish claims. I was looking to take advantage.

well, I'll be betting on the Wild with great odds once and if that matchup does happen.

will be fading the Ducks almost no matter who they face.

 

[Raider Nation]

Stamkos is terrorizing Reimer.

 

[GTBilly]

Stamkos is terrorizing Reimer.

Not sure if anyone told the boys in blue that Stamkos is playing.

 

[Premier]

Paul Ranger just got murdered. Sheez.

 

[Christo]

Go Hawks! Beat the Blues!

 

[Premier]

Somebody on Toronto should check that Stamkos guy.

 

[GTBilly]

Ya, heard he's good.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Let's go Bolts!!!!!

Sens are making a habit out of choking away leads. They looked horrible giving up a 4-1 lead to Montreal last Saturday. Lehner was flopping around in the crease and putting himself out of position for rebounds.

 

[Raider Nation]

Ya, heard he's good.

Only one goal in the 2nd period. Slacker.

 

[Hawks64]

Kane looks like he hurt his right leg/knee on his last shift. Have to see if he's still on the bench when the commercial break is over.

ETA it's left knee and he's in the locker room.

Hope he's ok. That looked kinda bad.

Yeah me too, it would be a serious blow to the Hawks.

Injuries to key players happen all the time. That doesn't make it suck less. Let's hope it is a tweak.

 

[JaxBill]

Paul Ranger just got murdered. Sheez.

Killorn deserved the 5 and the supplemental discipline he's sure to get, but Ranger didn't exactly help himself by turning his back and ducking down.

Preliminary analysis out 2 weeks.

 

[Hawks64]

Latest on Kane, per McGuire Kane is out at least two weeks, he talked to Kane's Dad who is there and Kane's agent.

 

[Christo]

It's like St. Louis rather than Chicago was the team that played last night--they just ran out of gas in the third.

Hawks have been very very good in the 2nd of back to back games over the last few years.

That would mean he is ready for the playoffs, which is the big issue. The jockey for home ice is secondary.

Parise, Koivu, Pominville, Granlund, Moulson, Coyle. Their top 6 can score now.

Only thing that ever matters is whatever the did in the past.
