Thankfully it was a quick OT but if it went 1 or 2 whole OT periods.. we here in Dallas or STL wouldn't have even been able to watch our own teams play. I know they said they were showing that game on NHL Network but who the fuck has that? Our cable provider doesn't even offer it.
Fuck you NBC, get your shit together.
Agreed &I hate Doc.

Beautiful clearing attempt last night by Weber

Don't clear across your own goal slot is like beginning hockey 101.

They're too busy taking cheap shots after the whistle to worry about scoring

FWIW, I think your team is just as guilty of it.

And I'm being an absolutely casual observer not rooting for anyone...I just want a hard-nosed hard-fought series -- kinda like Hawks/Blues. No shenanigans (outside of Shaw's :ghey:-diatribe) in regards to head-shots.

Anyways...if Caps do not find a way to solve your NO-NAME WTF goalie, they can start booking tee-times.

Mmm...not really as evenly matched IMO. Does not live up to the Hawks/Blues series or the Caps/Pens (minus the stupidity).

I do quite enjoy the Preds/Sharks series...I had thought the Preds may roll over...but, am impressed with their fight.

Pff 1 bad game all playoffs. Whatever.

Why? Because every single game hadn't gone to OT? They are totally different styles. Dallas smaller and faster, STL bigger and more physical.

All the games, other than the blowout, have been really fun to watch.

FWIW, no offense intended, I do not expect the Stars to get past the Blues...the Dallas D just isn't ready for a long playoff run. Getting their 1st round match was a "gift".

The games are fun to watch...like ALL playoff games. But, if I were to rank the games, they are not as entertaining as what I'm seeing in the other series. Just my own personal opinion.

St. Louis probably won't lose another game (just watch me jinx them now)...and this is coming from a Hawks fan who HATES the Blues.

Still, I hope to see Niemi, Johns, Sharpie, and Oduya do well as Stars.

Nice effort by Caps tonight to stay alive. Held the Pens to zip shots even after they pulled their goalie with all that time was an impressive demonstration on defense.



Hopefully this goes to 7.

cabby, you need a better interior designer. And I'm saying this in the politest way possible, but it looks like you are time warped in 1994. Which I know was a very good year for you, but still...

Hopefully we win before 2048.
