oddball Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 The countdown has begun. 48 hours until Bruce Boudreau's coaching career in Washington is over. I expect a house cleaning after this pathetic effort by Washington. By house cleaning I mean coaches, GM, scouts and players. The choice of players by GM and scouts has proven over the past three years that these are not the players to get you a Cup or even a chance at a Cup. For as well as they do in the regular season, they don't have what it takes when the heat is turned on. I'll be shocked not to see Boudreau fired and a full-on house cleaning. It's time to break this team up and rebuild with a new GM and coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charger77 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Why am I getting this feeling that Nashville has a legit shot at the Cup this year? They are really reminding me of the 2003 Ducks but with a stud pairing on D.

Don Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Bruce has to go. Has to. He is getting out coached by a rookie head coach. A good one, but a rookie nonetheless. He was almost out coached by Torts too, but the Caps skill got them by the Rangers. This series is over, I dont think we see Game 5 barring a monumental collapse by Tampa, and I dont see it, not with the leadership they have.

GO2HELL Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 It ain't over till it's over, we learned this last year with Philly coming back against Boston, it's not impossible. And WTF, way to rip off philly's "orange crush" Nashville, Though I do like the idea of having the fans wear coloured t-shirts during the game. I would like to see the Canucks try that with green.

I would like to see the Canucks try that with green.It actually reminds me more of Winnipeg's "white-outs". (Yes, I know the Coyotes did them too, but it just isn't the same when the building's only one-third full. ) If the Preds can replicate the atmosphere of a Canadian arena for the playoffs, maybe Nashville just might have a place in this league after all.

Sodboy13 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 If the Preds can replicate the atmosphere of a Canadian arena for the playoffs, maybe Nashville just might have a place in this league after all.I think that's really being demonstrated. I wouldn't have thought it possible in the wake of Jim Balsillie's premature relocation and Boots DelBiaggio's Ponzi FunBuxx purchase a few years ago, but it seems like the Predators are taking root. The fan support is there, and it seems like the corporate support is there, though I'm not familiar with specifics. In fact, when someone like noted Canadian partisan troll Damien Cox, who probably thinks of St. Louis as a non-traditional market, appears to grudgingly be in your corner, I'd say you're doing something right.

ninersdd Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 New Sharks? Not even the Sharks choke as much as the CrapitalsI know this is seems harsh since they have won cups before, but the Devils post lockout were as bad as the Sharks and Caps at choking in the playoffs. They always had higher seeds but couldn't get to the conference finals once. My Sharks have earned the choker label, but I just wanted to point it out.

No league, sport, or team really has a monopoly on those things. WIZARDS ORIOLES CAPITALS RAVENS UNITED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cujo Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Is it too soon to call the Caps the new Sharks?Regardless, the Caps are who we thought they were. Shame on (almost all of) us for picking them to advance ot the ECF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loogodude90 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 the crowd makes me think of cheetosThe Preds crowd? Cheetos are more orange than yellow... if anything, the Flyers crowd would look like cheetos.Anyway, I like seeing a crowd in all yellow. At least it brightens up the place a little. Better than boring overused blue. WIZARDS ORIOLES CAPITALS RAVENS UNITED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
