Kramerica Industries Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 So what? There's life after the first round. I'd rather have matchups like that in the later rounds.There is, obviously, but as the rounds go on, I tend to prefer straight substance over flair. If we get both (a la Red Wings/Avs circa 2002) then great. But, in the 1st round, I don't mind the opportunity of seeing a Leafs-Habs series, a matchup between two teams with very low odds of making a Cup run.That said, another Caps/Rangers series isn't the worst thing. Fourth meeting in five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbadefense1990 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I think this GIF sums up everyone's reaction on here of the Jackets' run coming up short:But a great run, nonetheless, still occurred. Today, we honor the courageous run of these Columbus hockey players. May we all hope that they nurture together for the future, and they build around Bonrovsky to ensure playoff berths for years to come.I guarantee that if this was the standard 82-game campaign, they could've made it. Time just caught up with the Jackets. Minnesota. That is all.Here's hoping the Ducks and 'Hawks mercilessly savage their respective 1st round match-ups.

zpqmaowl Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I hope both the Ducks and Red Wings lose that series. the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kramerica Industries Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I hope both the Ducks and Red Wings lose that series.Red Wings and Ducks meeting in a 2/7 ten years after J.S. Giguere happened.This is too apropos. Wings in four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 They'll send a national crew to Pittsburgh and maybe Chicago and then pick up CSNs and TSN for everything else. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Chicago is a CSN (with Edzo to boot!), so there's no need to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like they save the Strader and Forslund teams until deep into the semis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 They like to nab Rick Peckham during playoff time. Good thing for them that he's usually available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Top two scorers in the league are on the third-worst team in the league. It's time for Steve Yzerman to give in, do what blithering idiots on Yahoo Answers have surely been asking for years, and just put A Really Really Fat Guy in goal. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaRadniz29 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 In other news the Sharks are stinking it up against the Kings. Yeah it's only 2-1, but the in my opinion the Kings have dominated the game. Maybe the Sharks don't want to play St. Louis after last season, but so far, tonight's effort won't work against the Canucks either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yakupov hat-tricks to end it for the Oilers.

infrared41 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Beej faithful, you're always welcome on our bangwagon. Thanks for the offer, but I better go get back on the Rangers bandwagon. Gotta get in one last run (and disappointment, I'm sure) before I begin the process of deciding if I'm going to kick them to the curb after 21 years.
