How does this line sound to you? Grigorenko - Yashin - Samuelsson This line will lead us to a Cup.

I'll be loading my guns and flying to Bettman's house in the meantime.

Are you talking about the game or the horse racing?

What about Zarley Zalapski?

Horse racing will only come on if there's OT. Just ask those poor Sabres fans who never even got a chance to see their team eliminated last year.

Exactly. Dallas is a weak minded team that wouldn't need any reasons to fold the tent. Instead, they scored first, and played hard the rest of the game. My proposal is that all goals waved off due to Holmstrom should be reviewed. That's at least 2 games we've lost this year because of that.

The longer this series goes, the less our chances are of beating Pittsburgh. I expect them to sweep tonight, and I don't want a young and rested team sitting around waiting for the Wings.

You guys need to ******* grow up. Zion, if you weren't drawn and quartered after your childish and idiotic post before the game 5 OT against Nashville, then I'm not going to be drawn and quartered either. Don't take your superstitions out on me.

I've been awake now since 8, and have posted here several times today, but only now did I realize that we still have to play Dallas tomorrow. From reading some of the other topics and things being posted here today, it appears that many people have forgotten it also, and share my confusion. I understand that you have to win 4 games to win a series, but it still feels anti-climactic that we should play them again, since everyone is already looking towards the finals and Dallas looks finished. The game tomorrow just seems like some ritual that must be done even though it makes no sense to have to do it. Can't the league just step in and call this game off? I think Dallas wouldn't mind, especially after what happened to the divealanche in game 4 of that series.

How do you guys know whether Franzen will play in game 5?

Chris Chelios. Seriously, we should get a PP for the entire 1st period on Saturday. The Stars should be informed of this grim fact as soon as they land in Detroit.

With Sammy on the team, it's hard to look at any positives. His dipsy doodling moves are fun when we're up by 3 goals, but tonight it wasn't very fun to watch.

I just realized the irony of this whole thread. I'm always accused of being some grim pessimist, and now I'm being accused of being too optimistic and cocky. That's a laugh. "What we got here is a failure to communicate".

And if we win Saturday, naturally I'll get no credit for saying that it was over after 3-0.

Pick a side Kp. I hope you're enjoying this. But tonight is just one night (thanks to the refs) They won't do it 3 more times, especially without outside help. And yes, I don't think they belong on the ice with us. We're a far better team. They're just shooting in the dark, and tonight they hit something due to bizzarre circumstances.

I'm one of those foolish martyrs who secretly doesn't want anyone on his side. I just can't believe other people are taking their superstitions out on me. I didn't force anyone to say anything they didn't want to.

Read my above posts, geniuses.

That doesn't prove anything. Like I said in that post, we're just going through a ritual since we'll eventually win. Dallas will quit the moment something goes against them. In this game they didn't have to, since they got the lead first thanks to the refs. Besides, how could anyone have guessed that the refs were going to go to such extremes to cost us a game. But ahh, now I realize it, my original post somehow resulted in karma, which in turn resulted in Bettman telling the refs to blow the game for us. Now it all makes sense to me.

Our season is over. I'm going to go root for the Ducks now.

But we're still going to win the series. I started the thread because us winning was academic and inevitable. If you think that I'm destroying superstitions with that statement, then you should tell everyone predicting us to win in game 5 to refrain from typing anything.

Superstitions are a personal thing. You guys make it sound like I made fun of some posters' religion or something. No one has to like the post. The fact that it was made was my own choice, and had no effect on anyone else's choice. NFM, you're chasing wild geese here.

Nope. They still claim that they won the Cup legitimately in 1999.

The first statement is a litlle harsh, but let's hope the 2nd one happens.

Based on that, all those predicitions in the first couple of pages of the GDT are jinxes too.

I hope we win the next game based on a few cheap calls that go againt Dallas, just so they know what that feels like for a change. Their franchise seems to always have calls go their way.
