aMonster 96 Report post Posted April 30, 2011 I am thinking this is going to be another seven game series for the Canucks. Not even a remote chance... 1 MannyK reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
henriksedin 1 Report post Posted April 30, 2011 Chalk this game up as rust for the Nashville Predators, and 'feeling' out the Canucks for the first 40 minutes. The last 20 minutes the Predators began to awaken, and got some nice looks on 7oungo. Mike Fisher is a BEAST. He's the kind of player a team needs to win Championships. I expect a high energy and physical game from the Preds in game 2.... and honestly, I think Preds win game 2. Fisher is a solid 2nd line Center on most teams, but a beast? LOL, hardly. He had 36 points in 82 games this year. Career high of 53. The fact that he's the Preds best forward is as strong a testament as any to their serious lack of any high-end talent up front. I can definitely see Fisher as the type of player a team can win championships with....provided he's playing on the 3rd line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 This is why I wanted Detroit to play Nashville. They just don't have any offensive talent to compete with the top teams. And scoring against Luongo is much harder than doing it against Emery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeonardSankar 434 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 Vancouver has played worse than Detroit did last night but they will most likely pull this one out in OT but when the Sharks tied it up last night everyone knew it was over. You see this is a perfect example of why the Wings won't win the Cup this year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firehawk 305 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 At this rate the next goal will come in the 8th overtime. Rinne has 904 saves out of 906 shots, and Lungo faces 45 shots in 11 periods for the win. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeonardSankar 434 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 Hope Nashville wins. They "deserve" it They won't b/c every team I root for loses in OT e.g Wings last night and also the Kings in first round and Hawks in game 7. Wings can't get any breaks even when they are not playing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grypho 195 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 It's confirmed. Rinne is an mutant alien shape-shifter. Part fish, part eel, part bat, part Grey, with just enough human DNA to make him passable as one. On another note, is it abnormal or sick of me to really, truly want to take a machete and cut off the hands of Nuck fans (or any team's fans) who think it's just a nifty-neato-deeto part of the game to bang on the ******* glass? I really want to go all Phantom on those fans, and drop 2 ton chandeliers on their heads from the rafter beams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jersey Wing 1,521 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 There is NOTHING more exciting than NHL sudden death overtime. Nothing beats the sheer excitement of a packed house screaming while the game is on a razor's edge where every play is magnified. Or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grypho 195 Report post Posted May 1, 2011 Could be worse... they could be doing bizarre arm gestures to the Jaws theme... Since '94, baby! The Sharks "Power Play Chomp", while not nearly as bizarre as killing and gleefully throwing real, once-live, dead mascots of one's team onto the ice, is actually a mystic ritual, taught to us, legend has it, by a Gypsy shaman who promised us that if we did this during a playoff series, we could ward off and eventually eliminate all evil wings and wheels. It worked in 1994, and we have used it ever since. If the Sharks ever decide to finally pay the Gypsy for the Chomp, he would show them the rituals needed to actually capture a Cup. So far I haven't received any checks, so I'm holding out. I mean, he's holding out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
