IceCap Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 So holy crap muffins. That backhanded goal by Malkin was incredible. Now if only Chicago could pick up their game in the West....

Jamikel Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 lmao, I'm pretty sure everybody expected Crosby to cry out "STOP! STOP THE HATS! STOPPPPP!", except tongue-in-cheek.I don't think Sidney Crosby is capable of being tongue-in-cheek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maz Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I wonder if Crosby will have the ref ask the fans to stop throwing hats for Malkin's hattrick? -Dani was yelling at the tv DONT THROW HATS! DONT THROW HATS! CINDY WILL HAVE A FIT! but they did, and the delay was longer than when Ovechkin had his hat trick. wheres the whining? c'mon Cindy lets hear it.Those grapes sure are sour.

Shane Does Art Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Edit: I'm surprised there wasn't such an outburst from Maz with the knee-on-knee incident that sidelined the Carolina player. Even though it looked pretty similar to the Ovechkin/Gonchar incident. Hi, how are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maz Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 What does that have to do with anything?Upon further review not much, I was just wondering what he thought about it. I'll fix that.Looking back, I don't think Ovechkin thought to himself "I'm going to knee Gonchar". In any case, Ovy's hit looked dirty, and I still wouldn't put it by him to knee someone, though I think he'd do it as a spur-of-the-moment thing, not a pre-calculated thing. He is a player that acts on emotion. Recently, however, my hate for Ovechkin has receded a lot, and I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that it was an accident.I think the Cooke hit wasn't as bad in that, it looked a little more accidental than Ovy's hit (Ovy appeared to move his leg forward and not try to get out of the way). Cooke seemed to try to get out of the way, at least to me. And at the point that he realized he was going to hit Cole, at the speed he was going, I don't think he had the time to react with enough effect. Cooke has a rep, sure, but he's more of a talking agitator or one that will "accidentally" bump into you on the way back to the bench, rather than one that makes dirty plays. So id give him the benefit of the doubt to. If the NHL had done something to him, I wouldn't have liked it, only because they would've given him a penalty worse than what they did Ovy for a similar thing, but I would have understood it.So, all in all, both hits were probably accidents, and both "victims" are back full time from those events, so its really just water under the bridge.

NEW.ERA Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Kinda non playoff talk but the Flames have fired Mike KeenanAfter a disappointing end to their season, the Calgary Flames announced the firing of head coach Mike Keenan on Friday afternoon."Our team did not meet expectations,β Flames General Manager Darryl Sutter said in a statement. ''Following detailed evaluation over the past three weeks, and taking into consideration all factors affecting our season ending result, we believe this is a necessary change required to allow our team to continue toward our objective of winning the Stanley Cup."Keenan became the Flames head coach on June 14, 2007. In two years with Keenan at the helm, the Flames posted a record of 88-60-16, making two playoff appearances but exiting in the first round both years.This season Calgary finished in fifth place in the Western Conference, but were eliminated by the Chicago Blackhawks six games into the post-season. "The Calgary Flames organization appreciates and respects Mike for accepting the opportunity to come to Calgary and are thankful for his efforts over the past two years."Calgary was Keenan's eighth stop as an NHL head coach. He is ranked fourth all-time among coaches in wins with 672, has 95 playoff wins and one Stanley Cup on his resume but since 1996, his teams have not made it past the first round of the playoffs - the St. Louis Blues the last to do so.I'm really intrigued about who will come in and fill there's talk off Ted Nolan, possibly Dave Lowry from the Hitmen or a bit of a long shot in Brent Sutter coming home to Alberta.
