I feel like coming to gloat in an atmosphere where the vast majority of people are not fans of the team you support is bad form. Don't get me wrong, you can feel good about it and blessed for your good fortune, but it's probably not the best thing you should do.

The_Admiral Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 I'm just so happy to see hockey's Cute Baby Bwudder Nashville denied its joy. You want to call yourselves real hockey fans now? Real hockey fandom consists of getting kicked in the dick at every turn, so consider yourselves initiated. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Preds had just scored on one of those power plays (including a 5 on 3) we're going to OT. The refs didn't screw anyone. The Preds lost it. I was incensed about that disallowed goal, but this is right. I think the final line saw Nashville win 2 out of every three faceoffs, had four power play opportunities (including said 5-on-3) and couldn't do anything with it. For some reason I saw way too much passiveness in the offensive zone. Not gonna convert chances like that. Who knows, maybe the Preds make this their "one to grow on" and come back next season with a renewed vigor to get back to the final. It remains to be seen. (I certainly hope so.) *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nashville, I've loved seeing your city go nuts for this year's playoffs. I'm glad the hockey world has seen what I've been saying about the atmosphere has been for Predators games for years. Congrats on a fun spring. It's a crime Ron Hainsey is now a Stanley Cup champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only celebrated because it's a neutral board; if it were an opponents board, then I would most certainly refrain. But that will be it seeing how the majority feels.

Cosmic Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 A power play has about an 18% chance of working; I'd rather take the goal my team already scored 100%, thanks. LOL at anyone who thinks the refs "gave" them the 5-on-3. The Penguins were daring the refs to do it. Trevor Daley just stopped playing hockey and punched a guy in the face along the boards.

I don't believe in "well they should've capitalized on their other chances". No screw that :censored:. The refs should do their job. They scored their goal and it was robbed from them. Why is every penguins opponent asked to overcome these situations with the officiating every time they play? They took a good goal off the board in a 0-0 game! How's that not a screw job? Because they had chances later? Those chances should've been for a two goal lead, not 1. All I'm asking for is a level surface and that didn't happen. It's extremely disappointing.

habsfan1 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I will say that Nashville does not have as much depth as the Penguins. But still, what a horrible way to lose. A game shouldn't end with a What If... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm asking for is a level surface and that didn't happen. It's extremely disappointing. If that happened after Hornqvist scored (ie; the final minute or minutes of the game) then I'd say it's a fair point to make, but to not be able to either use that no-goal as a motivating factor or just put the damn puck in the net in the 28 minutes after makes the argument less stable. It's also an attitude I would expect out of someone who hasn't played the game. You, however, have played the game and I think you A.) know better and B.) just letting emotion get the best of you.

BeerGuyJordan Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Crosby played well, but he was the third, arguably fourth, most deserving Smythe candidate, on his team. All in all, proud of Nashville, and hoping this is the start of some great years. G'night, y'all. I'm off to ceremoniously shave my beard, to the tune of Enya's "Only Time."
