hooon

The best part of this one is how you didn't change Mule or Fil... the expressions on their faces is just priceless. Great job so far guys, these are hilarious.

Really adds some weight to that Hawks-Blues game the other day and Hossa's "goal".

VAN/CHI: 4-1 SJS/LAK: 4-1 DET/PHX: 4-2 ANA/NSH: 4-3 WAS/NYR: 4-2 PHI/BUF: 4-1 BOS/MTL: 4-2 PIT/TBL: 4-3 WC Champion: Detroit EC Champion: Boston SCF Champion: Detroit

umm...

WOOHOO! I won something! Sweet belt! Thanks to the WINGS for winning today and getting me the win! Thanks guys for the congrats, it was a fun finish for sure. Good job Gowings, it could have gone either way at the end. HUGE thanks to kook for putting this together and taking the time to do it every week! LGW!

I actually think this could be a really good series. The Ducks have the more talented team but more questionable goaltending. The Preds match up really well against talented teams and can wear them down. If they can contain Anaheim's top line, who knows. I still agree with others though, I think Anaheim will take it, but I'd love to see the Preds finally get a series.

Thanks! I think you're right, but I'll wait for the official count to come in before I plan my parade.

Didn't see it at the time, was definitely leading with the elbow and caught him in the head, even if he meant to get body first. A hit to the jaw like that hurts like all hell and can really dizzy you up as well. A game suspension might be in order. Tsk, tsk, Abby.

No they'll need at least 2 to "secure" one, but could still make it as it is depending on what Dallas does and how the ROW tiebreaker plays out. Honestly they might as well just sit Homer tonight, if he is even anywhere near the ice you can expect to get some goals called back.

Cool pictures! I like that 70s effect. Very disappointing game. A few of my buddies are Rangers fans and I used to live outside of NY as a kid and cheered for them as my second team. I was pulling for them last night, but you are right... a completely uninspired effort. Not having Callahan hurts, but come on. I've always said this about the Rangers the past few years: they are the laziest team in the NHL. On paper, they have an incredible amount of talent, but so many players who will never live up to their potential.

I'll be watching!

You claim its not a shot on goal if it hits the post... but using that logic you are proving that it never crossed the line. If it is shot off of the post and goes into the net, then obviously it is a shot on goal, however, if it merely hits the post and therefore isn't a true shot on goal... then obviously it never crossed the line. You are really reaching for arguments now and its confusing why you are playing devil's advocacy on this obvious travesty of a call.

I want that puck! Friday, April 8 Pittsburgh at NY Islanders Philadelphia at Buffalo Chicago at Detroit Florida at Tampa Bay Carolina at Atlanta Columbus at Nashville Minnesota at Edmonton Dallas at Colorado X 2 San Jose at Phoenix Los Angeles at Anaheim Saturday, April 9 New Jersey at NY Rangers Ottawa at Boston Tampa Bay at Carolina NY Islanders at Philadelphia Montreal at Toronto Washington at Florida Buffalo at Columbus Nashville at St. Louis Vancouver at Calgary Anaheim at Los Angeles Phoenix at San Jose Sunday, April 10 Detroit at Chicago Boston at New Jersey Edmonton at Colorado Pittsburgh at Atlanta Dallas at Minnesota

Right.... but that clearly didn't happen, did it?

Check it yourself. If a player kicks the puck and it goes off of the goalie and in, it is still considered a kicked puck and reviewed as such.

Actually it doesn't matter if it hits the goalie on a kicking play, the kicking motion is still reviewed. Good job knowing the rules. I thought you were a ref?

Please name me a time the Wings have benefited from a goal like this. And good job completely ignoring the fact that the puck was clearly kicked into the net in your assessment.

Hmm. Kinda strange they are resting Hudler of all people. Oh well. GET A WIN. LGW!!!!!!!

Pretty funny story. Hilarious that he wrote Turco Rules lol. Hope he doesn't get into trouble for that.

No Hudler?

Its actually 2 against Colorado and 1 against Min. It could happen, but at this point its a toss up.

Hoping Mursak can be this year's 08/09 Helm. Hopefully we won't need any callups, but I do love Mursak's speed.

Awesome.

I will do my best to keep my whining and bellyaching to a minimum when I lose on the tiebreaker. Thanks again kook for putting this all together, it makes the season just a little bit more fun.

Wow, what a close one!
