Big save by conks in OT. I think I'd rather 7th than 6th if we cant make 5th. Don't want to play the Nucks plus the travel would be a bad way to start.

1-1 after 3. OT time. Nash gets a point.

Nucks Hawks Hawks Yotes Yotes Pens (As much as I wouldn't want them too, i still have major doubts with the Caps system come playoffs)

When the Wings drew 0-0 after OT awhile back I thought to myself, wow this is not going to end anytime soon

Woo Backes! Wings killer strikes again.

Sounds like not much has changed then. Still can't believe how easily the Ducks won in 07, especially after the Sens dominated just about every series they played. Maybe that was more of a reflection on the East..

Just saw that on NHL.com Amazing. Not to take away anything from Boston but the goaltending left a lot to be desired.

This will be the 3rd time in 4 seasons these two have met in the first round isn't it? I really haven't watched too much of the Sens this year. Are they Any good? Did the loss of Heatley hurt them much? My money would still be on the Pens regardless...I'll be cheering for the Sens though

Ugh god Nashville are so boring to watch. 1-0 Nash. Cmon Blues!

Atlanta seem like a pretty terrible organisation. We could probably trick them into it

Really hoping Stamkos wins. This just makes Melrose look even worse.

I think we can all add Evander Kane to our lists

Your creepy avatar might have something to do with it

That was amazing. Get this kid in a wings jersey kenny

That is awesome, well done.

If by odd you mean greatest name ever, then yes i agree.

I agree, the current system is so stange. Especially when one conference is so much stronger than the other. The league is all about parity these days so I wouldn't get your hopes up for a rule change anytime soon.

I think he meant you are asinine if you think crosby is a bad player, which would be correct. If you dislike Crosby for other reasons then thats up to you but if you think hes not a good hockey player then you are flat out wrong. (Not saying that's what you think, just people in general) Dislike for players happens all the time no matter how good they are, its just the way it is..no matter how irrational the dislike may be.

There are a few things that Crosby has done that would annoy wings fans, some of his post game pressers in 08 come to mind. However most of his percieved whiny behaviour in my mind can be put down to passion and a hatred for losing. I can't blame him for that. Ovechkin is the same, sometimes worse (olympics) yet no one seems to care. He literally shoved a fan and i guarantee Crosby will never do anything like that. For such a young kid with so much responsiblity he handles himself very well.

It would probably be the most active thread in LGW history.

Pretty good list. I would also include Ovy, Toews, Hossa and Kovalchuck.

Wow. I hope you're wrong.

Uhh Is that a joke or are you being serious? It is hard to tell on these boards. So much irrational hate for Crosby.

Heres the hit which caused the injury, as well as the fight that followed.
