[Raider Nation]

Game ON in Colorado.

 

[Hawks64]

CALL THE GAME-WINNER!

I got Shattenkirk at 9:33 of the 2OT

Or don't.

Sharp/Steen

Shattenkirk/Versteeg

What happened to Bouwmeester?

Hurt on blocked shot I think.

That sucks.

 

[JaxBill]

Meanwhile, as no one pays attention, the Sharks are doing terrible things to the Kings.

Brown's hit which launched Voynov into Quick

How is that considered goalie interference?

If you intentionally shove the defenseman into the goalie, it's goalie interference. I think it's a bad call though because he hits him so far away from the crease, I don't think he could have expected Voynov to get that much air.

That was my point. Just looked like a great shoulder check by Brown and Voynov lost his balance and was in the wrong spot.

I'm tired watching this

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Is this a new rule? Cleaning the ice midway through each OT period?

Used to be no commercials in playoff OT.

Nah. They've been doing that for a while in the playoffs. Just enough of a break to get the shovels out there and clean it up a little bit. But not normal commercial breaks.

I don't remember ever seeing a commercial in OT. Seen two tonight.

Looked like Voynov was actually the one checking Brown and Brown just brushed him off. I personally hate those goalie interference calls, but they're called all the time.

 

[Raider Nation]

All this, and Wings/B's in a few hours!

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Wow, empty net for Colorado with three minutes left.

 

[The Ref]

Someone text me at 4AM when someone scores in this Chi/STL game.

 

[Raider Nation]

Wow, empty net for Colorado with three minutes left.

He empties the cage earlier than any other coach. Did it with over 5:00 left last week, though they were down 2. Still unorthodox.

 

[Hawks64]

Good thing the Blues have such a terrible goalie in Miller.....

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Wow, empty net for Colorado with three minutes left.

Colorado coach must hate goalies, huh?

If you go to bed during a 3-OT playoff game, you're dead to me!

 

[Hawks64]

So the Hawks and Blues figured they would get Games 1 and 2 out of the way in the first night.

Sorry GB.... was on the phone with Europe at 4AM......

Did it against the B's last month with five to play. I think I posted in the hockey thread. Unreal.

eta* He loves them getting pulled.

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC

Bouwmeester goes for a quick skate at end of 2nd OT. Broadcast team says they think it was cramps

BTW, love Roy. Even when he was beating my favorite teams. Just one of my favorite athletes ever. Ballsy, and great.

Glad I work nights. I never have to worry about staying up too late.

 

[Raider Nation]

Crazy night, boys.

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Gotta give Roy credit. Minnesota looked pretty gassed for most of that last minute before Stastny finally scored.

 

[ffldrew]

I'm at Pepsi center and am in that corner that Stastny buried it. AWESOME. DUPIONEERS baby!!

 

[Brady Marino]

*faints*

Yes, Miller was like a rock after the 1st period. Well done, Ryan.

*back to fainting*

 

[Raider Nation]

I MISSED IT!

 

[Dickie Dunn]

What a pass by Ott!

 

[Zegras11]

I MISSED IT!

me too

 

[Zegras11]

What a pass by Ott!

No O Ott?

 

[Zegras11]

NHL Playoffs are like XMas morning everyday.

 

[rockaction]

I MISSED IT!

i was responding in the Obama thread to Todd Andrews. Never again.

I'll never walk alone.

eta* And I just missed Colorado's goal typing the above. #### this. I can't stand it. Never, ever respond to one-noters nor trolls. I can't learn.

 

[Zegras11]

state of Stastny

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Wow, what a win for the Avs. Looked like they were done.

 

[ffldrew]

AVALANCHE!!!

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Wow, didn't see it live but that's a terrible no-call on Barrie. Just knocked Cooke over in the slot. He's probably the guy who would have picked up Stastny.

 

[ffldrew]

Pioneers!!!

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Great games tonight. Going to be a fun playoffs this year.

 

[Zegras11]

 

[Raider Nation]

There have been 53 goals in the first seven games.

 

[ffldrew]

Milbury critical of Roy on pulling the goalie. Say thats maybe he should wait until 30 secs are left. Which is why he is on TV and not the Adams winning coach

 

[Zegras11]

Flyers should dump Bear-a-bee

 

[sporthenry]

Flyers should dump Bear-a-bee

 

[Ghost Rider]

Wow, what a win for the Blues. Fantastic pass by Ott on the winner, and Steen buried it.

And I'll give credit where credit is due: for as bad as he was in the 1st period, Miller was rock solid the rest of the game. That is the Ryan Miller we Blues fans expected to see in the playoffs. Here's hoping we see more of that guy!

 

[Bill Brasky]

I'd like to know what the Avs' goal differential is with the goalie pulled. Has to be positive. Ridiculous

:X

Wild killed themselves. awful turnovers everywhere. Brodziak's turnover was the backbreaker.

Avs had a nice game plan to be physical and really targeted Granlund and Brodin, but once they settled in the Wild were able to fire back with their own physical play and really controlled the 5 on 5 forecheck which created 2 of the goals.

oh well. missed opportunity but this is their series if they stay out of the box and stay away from 4 on 4.

 

[Bill Brasky]

for as bad as he was in the 1st period, Miller was rock solid the rest of the game.

probably Elliott's fault Kane is 30 feet behind the defense and Seabrook is on the doorstep for an easy one timer
