[fraij da 5 11]

[addictedtofreshkicks]

%$#*%$+ @*@! @*@!

 

[gingersaintbad]

Great game so far.

 

[newbs24]

Chicago is definitely a worthy opponent. Kane was a ghost and that helped. Didn't hear a ton out of Toews either. Their D didn't impress me too much. Ithink this type of series plays right into the hands of Detroit. They love to get up and down the ice and let their playmakers work. They never get shook whenits an odd man rush or a PP. Having guys that have done this many times is going to be the deal breaker. I think its over in 5.

I don't know it's only one game in and Chicago can be down 0-2 for the series and still come back and surprise

Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Detroit get their !#! kicked, but I just don't see it happening. If Detroit plays their best Chicago can'tbeat them. The D for the Wings shut down the Hawks top line today and I see that continuing. And I will say it again, Chicago is nowhere near as physical asthe Ducks, and that was why Anaheim had success.

 

[DownByLaw]

Tough loss, but I have a feeling this is going to be great series when it's all said and done.

almost gametime

 

[DeadsetAce]

go pens....i despise the canes right now

 

[dmxfury]

versus is all jacked up for me sucks

 

[cquan05]

 

[dmxfury]

Yes! Geno!

 

[dmxfury]

Fleury playing great so far. If he is on the Pens can win it all...seriously

 

[fade on you]

 

[gingersaintbad]

I guess I have to go with the Canes as far as rooting, I cant root for the Pens. At least if the Canes get there I can say they beat everyone else, not justthe Devils to lol. I want the Hawks or Wings to win it though at this point.

 

[dmxfury]

Not the Wings man, they are like the Pats, they are always winning.

 

[dmxfury]

Canes are dominating right now. Pitt needs to pick it up, Fleury can't last forever. C'mon D

 

[addictedtofreshkicks]

Joe Beninati might actually be more annoying then Jack Edwards.

 

[dmxfury]

Look out MAF! Easy way to get injured going back with that and hitting your head on the pipes/ice

 

[gingersaintbad]

Mason won the ROY for those counting at home.

Joe B. is the man! One of the best color guys in the business...yes, I'm biased

 

[dmxfury]

Good for Columbus, he is a good player. Both goalies playing great this game.
