DEAD! Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Spear meets DDT. Not sure who got the better of that encounter! They lay there for 9 seconds, when one of them finally gets up slowly, while the other does the same a second later and battle again... I saw, I came, I left.

IceCap Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 So Dustin Brown flops and draws a penalty but Doughty literally tackles Doan like Ray Lewis and then proceeds to push the back of Doans head and yet they both get called... Which is the house team again? What a jokeWha! Wha! Wha! Just admit it, your team is getting its butts kicked by a better team.Why don't you actually address his valid comments rather than be an obnoxious tool.Doughty did get a penalty for tackling Doan.

nash61 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 For the record, Jonathan Quick's GAA and Save% are both better than Giguere's was during his 2003 run and Conn Smythe victory.Yes, but Quick hasn't strung together three straight shutouts yet.Also, LA is the only team left in these playoffs that has not yet faced elimination.

Funky Bunky Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 For the record, Jonathan Quick's GAA and Save% are both better than Giguere's was during his 2003 run and Conn Smythe victory.Wrong. You can't compare Giguere's full playoff run to Quick's run, since Quick isn't done yet.Through game 3 of the WCF, Giguere had a GAA of around 1.25 and a save % of .959, while Quick has a GAA of 1.41 and a save % of .951. When Quick's playoff run is over, you then can compare it to Giguere's full run, but for now, you only can compare up to game 3 of the WCF.Giguere had better stats up to this point, plus 4 shutouts to Quick's 2.

Still MIGHTY Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Coyotes finally got a better game going, but when it got down to it, the Coyotes couldn't get any push back on the Kings. Yeah Phoenix held the Kings shots down slightly, got a little more room and the lead early, but the Kings switched back and got the pressure going again.Make fun of some of what Tippett's said, but one thing he's said that makes sense, the Coyotes just haven't raised their level to what's necessary. The Kings turned themselves up to that next notch. It's the Western Conference Finals. A berth into the Stanley Cup Finals is on the line, and the Coyotes haven't played like it. And really, I don't know if this is a group that's built to raise itself up to that level. The Kings have, and they are running all over the Coyotes. And really, I think this is Phoenix's ceiling. They are a solid group with steady defense and goaltending, but I don't know if they have that extra level in them.I'm going to stick with the Yotes until they're actually done and root for them, but I think it's pretty obvious they've reached their end here. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalieboy82 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 its too bad that the nhl is the only league that plays for the stanley cup. from what i have read, the trustees of the cup (currently two ex nhl people) are the ones who let the nhl play for it (would like to see that formal paper). would love the courts in canada say again (i know there was a lawsuit in 2005/06 that was somewhat of a victory for the fans) that someone else could play for the stanley cup. lets hope the day comes when there is a tournament within the usa/canada (will even include mexico) that is like the fa cup that the final 2 teams play for the cup. so long and thanks for all the fish.

Kramerica Industries Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Two quick goals for New York!I always love how these games in Jersey take on such a Rangers-esque feel. I almost felt like I heard a goal horn as well on the second goal.UPDATE - And that's game. King Hank with another shutout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 :censored:ing Lundqvist stole that won.
