Nice, have a good time and I want to hear ya yelling! Go Wings Go! 2-0 final score is my call!

Couldn't agree more, we'll need him for the Pens to be Healthy, Dallas we can take with current squad.

I think 1.5 to 1.75 for Stuart sounds good.

Never!!!

wow, all these stations are playing the game. ps. You can also listen live online at nhl.com

Any news on his examinations from today?

Update - WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!! TSN The National Hockey League will not suspend any Dallas Star or Detroit Red Wing players for late game antics that occurred late in Game 2 of the Western Conference final. Stars centre Mike Ribeiro turned up the dial on the nastiness meter at the conclusion of Game 2 after slashing Red Wings' goaltender Chris Osgood in the chest as the buzzer sounded on a 2-1 Detroit victory. The Stars' centre was handed a match penalty for attempt to injure, which carried with it an automatic review by NHL officials. Seconds before the incident, Osgood stuck the butt-end of his stick out as Ribeiro skated by the Detroit net, prompting Ribeiro's retaliation. Both players have been fined undisclosed amounts by the NHL. "Even if I did butt-end him, I mean it was an accident, I don't think that justifies a two-hander over top of the net," said Osgood after the game. "He could have gone about it a different way or said something to me." The incident occurred as the Red Wings were putting the finishing touches on another dominant effort against the Stars. The frustrations of the Stars spilled over with five seconds remaining in regulation as Stars' agitator Steve Ott received a minor for roughing and a 10-minute misconduct for punching Detroit's Kris Draper. Ott was also fined for the incident. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original Post Hey guys, nothing from Campbell's office yet, but found this from Dallas Paper, don't think it's been posted yet. All I have to say is unbelievable. From Ribeiro's comments alone, I hope he's suspended, what a jerk to think that Ozzie deserves more. Is everyone in Texas this dumb? Dallas News - Suspension Update "Both Dave Tippett and Mike Ribeiro said they expect there to be none. The NHL has said nothing about it. The tricky thing about the NHL is they have until game-time tomorrow to announce a suspension, but if they decide to do nothing, then they very well could decide to say nothing, and play goes on. My guess is the teams will be tipped off to the ``no suspension'' decision (if that is indeed the league's decision), so we'll try to forward that to you if we find that out. As for the quotes, here's Ribeiro: (When asked if he thought he would be disciplined): ``No. Well, if they do suspend me for one game, hopefully they suspend him for two games.'' (When asked what happened with Osgood): ``I think if you did a replay, he (Osgood) actually tries to do it (hit me with his stick). It's not like he accidentally hit me. He kind of was bent down, raised up and clipped me in the face. So if he doesn't do that, I don't think I react. I have no reason to do what I did. So a little bit of frustration and emotion in the game. But like I mentioned, I think it was more dangerous what he tried to do than what I did. (On whether or not he thought Osgood was really hurt): ``No. He gets shots harder than my slash. I think on the moment it looked worse than it really is. If you look at the replay, I don't think even a player (non-goalie) can get hurt with that.'' Dave Tippett said he has not heard anything fromn the league, that he doesn'yt expect a suspension, and believes he will have a final decision at some point today: ``We'll hear something today,'' Tippett said. ``I don't suspect anything. I suspect he'll be a player. Looking at the situation, I can't see how it would be a suspension, myself, but that's for them to figure out. And from our side, I'm going to prepare like Ribeiro's a player and move forward.'' If anyone has any further updates, please post. I think they'll say something and hopefully this delay indicates one is coming. Not as bad as Pronger, but worth one game at least. League can't have this happen after the game has ended.

People always need excuses when there team loses to another. Some Dallas fans can't realize that were playing that much better then them and dominating the play.

Couldn't agree more!

Totally agree! I hope Philly sees this and takes out Malkin, Crosby, Gonchar and Fleury. Should only be a fine, go ahead and 2-hand anyone across the chest. In fact, encourage your kids to do it when they play as well. What a joke. ps. Don't really hope, want to play a full Pens team in Final.

What is up with a 1:30pm Saturday afternoon Conference Final PLAYOFF game, seriously!!! NBC, probably have to get gymnastics in or something, lol. Funny how cbc and tsn are splitting, thought it would only be CBC.

That's sad, I can't believe were almost as bad as in Toronto at the ACC.

Nothing like a little GTA IV on my PS3 to kill time before the next round! Great on easing out that stress!!!

I'd love to see it and can't understand why they don't do it!

The Star I'm honestly surprised this guy has no desire to win a Cup and play for a contender and instead just wants to hang up his skates. I hope the Leafs don't re-sign him, they need a fresh start. As much as I hate them, it's nice to see them make the playoffs and the fans to all think they're going to win the cup, only to lose, haha.

Thanks guys, either way I try keep my schedule clear during playoffs, haha. Game 7 Bos vs Mon tomorrow night. Don't miss it guys!

Does anyone know what date game 1 might be or do we have to wait for all the other series to finish?

Great work Ozzie! Very impressed with his ability to come in, play solid and be so consistent. Let's ride him to the Cup. I'll be the first to admit I've doubted him in the past, so let's hope he stays solid and gets more shutouts! I have Detroit goalie in my hockey pool as well, lol.

Firehawk, I don't think we'll face a hotter goalie then Ellis in the playoffs, at least I hope I'm wrong, lol. Kipper is better, but Ellis in terms of end of season and playoffs has been the MVP

I think he thought he might have a better chance of scoring if he didn't play with sammy, lol

I disagree, I'd take Calgary over the Avs. Just my 2 cents. Calgary doesn't have the depth they did when they last beat us in the playoffs and they'll have gone 7 long games with the sharks.
