I see OT here

 

[glvsav37]

The Islanders Twitter account using #Drivefor5 is great schtick.

I think they mean 5 wins.

(and i'm an islander fan)

I see OT here

Sure seems like the Ducks are all over the preds. Thrilled with the 2 goal lead but it feels like they're gonna score here soon. Need Rinne to keep up and bail us out.

God wilson earned his contract from his postseason play last year. And has seemingly been a disappointment... til the post season this year. 

Totally different player in the playoffs than he has been in the regular season.

Other note...its funny listening to my son while watching hockey.  He has been to a few games and knows its physical. But he watches a bunch of soccer and plays travel soccer.  So any big hit...he is like "they can do that?"

Badass. You're in nashville too, right? What club? I grew up playing travel soccer/odp in nashville and my dad is still active in coaching. He coaches 3 teams for the strikers. I coach my oldest son's team but he's only 3

 

[glvsav37]

Wat?

Just sarcasm.....with a drought like ours, 5 wins in the same playoffs is a milestone

after tonight, I expect this to be a better series then I figured.

Eagle Express...I played when I was like 6 before starting baseball.  Ended up coaching him at the Y for 2 years til he started playing travel.  I was starting to get in over my head.

He said he wanted to play hockey for a little while.  But between the cost, his size...and well, his skating, that was not goign to happen.

Haha I played for the Eagles from U7-U10 before switching to ta different team.  My dad still does camps for them. 

 

[falguy]

Great crowd! 

 

[Bill Brasky]

Has Pierre even said a word tonight?  With no former Hawks other than Garbutt (briefly) I guess he's bored with it

 

[rockaction]

I'm not even getting the proper broadcast -- it's blacked out. I'm getting the Ducks home guys. I dislike it.  

 

[Spin]

God, camera man seem to be doing a poor job tonight. Zooming in at bad spots and losing the puck all together

Where are you? 

 

[rockaction]

Where are you? 

Southern California - Temecula. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

Neal is such a moron

 

[Spin]

Wow. Elbowing? Really?

 

[sho nuff]

Neal is such a moron

But he's our moron.

And that's a pretty weak elbowing call.

 

[sho nuff]

Just a pile of everyone 

 

[Bill Brasky]

But he's our moron.

And that's a pretty weak elbowing call.

Easy call imo, dumb play.  Totally intentional 

 

[sho nuff]

His elbow was at his side?never extended it at all.

 

[Spin]

Seriously. If anything the ducks player was leaning into it  

 

[Spin]

Penalty there? Wtf 

 

[rockaction]

I was thinking right before that scrum they were going to score, but Rinne made a big time save shutting down the space between his leg and glove. Good work. 

Next period starts with a full power play. I'd like to see Anaheim score to watch that place go bat####. This has been a really quiet Game 7, all things considered. Great work by Nashville to keep both the crowd and other team quiet so far.  

 

[Bill Brasky]

Preds playing very conservative and so far it has been effective.  not sure they can win this game playing that way though.  they are getting nothing to the net and a PP goal to start the 3rd could turn this on its head 

 

[sporthenry]

Even if you don't call the elbow, you could call interference.  Wasn't playing the puck and a borderline head shot.  

 

[Billy Bats]

His elbow was at his side?never extended it at all.

 he lifted it perfectly to the height of Dupres' head. Sneaky dirty #### he is, and he got caught again. 

 

[flapgreen]

Come on Preds! 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

The 4700 people at the Pond are not happy right now.

Yeah, been completely a survive the pressure and counter attack in the 2nd.

Same as it ever was

 

[Bill Brasky]

Hfs, what a hit on Perry

 

[Doctor Detroit]

K dog the hog!!!!!

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

KESLER!

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I don't care who wins, just want it to go to 2OT.  TIA. 

 

[Zegras11]

####### Kesler!

 

[Bill Brasky]

 flop of the year

 

[Spin]

Wtf. What a terrible time for a penalty. 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Preds should have listened to the hot take of not taking penalties up two goals. 

 

[Zegras11]

 flop of the year

no

 

[Zegras11]

ketchup time

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

LET'S GO HOUSLEY!

 

[Spin]

How the hell are the preds ahead here?

 

[hagmania]

Cmon you Nashville hockey team.

 

[rockaction]

Love watching Perry play. Awesome toe drag, almost turned it into a finesse beauty in a Game 7. 

I'm with Dr. Detroit, let's see a frantic last minute to send it to OT. Then it's up for grabs.  

 

[Zegras11]

whatever happens, this is not like any of the previous game 7's where the ducks played like horse ####
