2011 NHL Playoffs


NEW.ERA

Recommended Posts

What a pathetic performance by the Canucks. Of course, the Bruins will likely follow this up by going back to the old wayward passes, turnovers, and inability to score in Game 7. I'm just hoping Boston doesn't have yet another team to suddenly pretend they care about and act like cocky a-holes over.

Don't forget, we are supposed to be complimenting Luongo for his brilliance in the paint.

And yet he could still win game 7, while Thomas could allow a 7 game minimum of 7 goals (if there's a shutout tonight and a 1-0 loss Wednesday.)

And 3 of the 6 goals Vancouver has scored have been of the lucky break variety. (Goals 1 and 3 in game 2, and the only goal in game 5)

See ya, Roberto. May you play in a similar gutless effortless fashion in game 7.

More goals, Boston. Break their spirit. Champs aren't made of biters, divers, and douchebags.

Patrick Kane winning last year disproves that last part.

Eh good point. But the Hawks roster's classiness offset Kane's douchebaggery, whereas Vancouvers roster is almost exclusively douche-riddled.

The best part was NBC putting up Luongo's "yeah I would've stopped that game-winner the other night" quotation as he took the skate of shame for like the fourth or fifth time in the playoffs. What kind of championship team has to pull its "Olympic" goalie like four or five times in the playoffs? Who named this guy the World's Greatest Goalie, anyway? a coffee mug?

Maybe the Canucks can coax Kirk McLean out of retirement. After all, he's got Game 7 Cup final experience.

Oh, wait...

Why the hell can't Boston play like this in Vancouver?

Least goals scored to win the Cup you ask?

The 1945 Stanley Cup Champions Toronto Maple Leafs scoring only nine goals. Detroit also scored only nine goals. Toronto took a three games series lead with three straight shutouts. Detroit battled back adding two more shutouts for a series total of five. There were three 1-0 games. This was the first time both goalies were rookies. Additionally, it was the first time a home team lost game seven in the finals.

If Nemi got canned for his performance in last year's Playoffs then there should probably be a goaltender change in Vancouver this off-season, regardless of if they win the Cup or not.

You know, if Vancouver wasn't going to even try tonight, the least they could have done is forfeited and let us avoid all of this.

The Bruins need to match this offensive intensity on the road. They never had a single offensive possession in game 5 like they have so far in game 6.

Also, I'm loving the footage of the thousands of fans assembled in Vancouver all blankly staring at the screen, crestfallen that their team of toolboxes is gonna have to wait at least one more game, barring a hell of a comeback.

Niemi got canned because Doug Wilson broke the gentlemen's agreement and offersheeted Niklas Hjalmarsson way above market value.

Actually they spent two consecutive dominant shifts for about 3 minutes of game time total, in succession, including a line change while they continued peppering the net, doing everything but score. I think it was in the second period.
