Title should be "paging half of this team", although they're hanging by a thread and might still win this series in 6! Isn't it funny how finesse players disapear in the playoffs? The "grind" of it all grates them down to nothing...

No, thanks. I think the Sharks are doing all the ******* for now , or at least until further notice from our beloved Wings...

Sorry that you're bothered by difference of opinion.I think that hints right at the base of the word " discussion" doesn't it? Anyhow, if by "awsome" you mean Canucks Bertuzzi I suggest you pull out some older Vancouver film with a cup 'o' black coffee.He even admits he's a role player right now (as opposed to difference maker).

Yes, I too wish Wings blank them 4-0 or something of the kind , in the midst of an erupting Joe... but let me be the minority persimist around here, I'm good at it: I have a feeling it won't happen.It will be a close , lucky one for the winner. Anyway I think ultimately we should be the"Calgary" of this series and punch them in the mouth a few times , see if those young guys rattle any...

No problem dude, I did not know that, sorry. "Vanity Threads" as you call them ,are a common thing on most forums and just an opinion and nothing more.However it seems redundant since I could've wrote the same message under a different topic name and still had it posted , correct?

I actually had a new topic called " game recap" that got deleted by the mighy of this board... maybe considered too negative? Sometimes the truth hurts... We didn't control anything , they just trapped us the rest of the game and that's all it took. It kind of reminded me of the '95 finals against the Devils.After that Bowman decided to master the trap, and he did...

Let me give you my "game recap" recap , since it got deleted earlier... They got two by us while the old men were sleeping back there and then they turned into un inpenetrable fortress that made us look futile most of the game.What's not to dread about that?

It's not, but if game one tought us anything is that the team making the least mistakes will win this series.And oh, we need Hank back badly! I hope he gets back before game 4...

Well now you can dread all you want! The dreading is official and spreading.

Wow! My game recap topic got deleted! How communist of you , mighty red god! I guess inteligence and debate are at a minimum around here.Oh, well...

I guess that spells deep trouble for us , unless Bertuzzi shakes of the daze that he seems to be under...

Calder and Bertuzzi it is, but you guys are forgetting no Lebda or Holstrom for the first game.That scares me a bit .I would officially like to wish them good luck...

So you think Nabakov will stop most of the 40-50 shots per game that Kiprusoff could not? I also hate this matchup but somehow I don't think goal tending is what's going to stop them... I'd sure like to see them win the first one... very important to set the tone against this Shark team...

Hasek has played poorly like he does since 2002.The play of the team in front of him is what masks that fact.When the D is not there pucks will get by him; he is no more the "human spring& trap" that he once was.On the other side Kipprusoff is starting to carry that team on his back: even the pucks that he can't see he stops.Three words: crash the net.Is the onlt way to get this guy now...

Babcock is a shot in the dark at best, just like most coaches in the league...You don't expect me to agree of this guy after seeing Bowman in action all those years...do you?
