Frist time Match up in 40 years (1973)

1.Steve Vickers/Ken Hodge
2.Bobby Orr

We should see some good hockey tonight. Two great goalies and very defensive teams. Maybe we will go to OT at double goose eggs. We can only hope.

Now if the B's can solve Lundqvist a little earlier they will be ok.

So far so good

It's amazing how quiet it gets in here when there's a good game going on

Good old fashion hockey
Bruins pull out a win.

Hockey amazes me, two teams looked totally different tonight compared to what they looked like in their first rounds.

It sure started slow but it picked right up in the 2nd. I bet this one goes 7.

We have to wait until Sunday

Game 1, talk about being glued to your seat, could have gone either way.

I watched Rick Nash play in Columbus for over 10 years. I was all for him moving on as he was no longer a fit and, like Gaborik, had to move on. He had some highlight reel plays during his tenure but lately? I've never seen anything like it. He's avoiding checks and tripping over his own skates. He wanders the perimeter aimlessly. His lack of engagement borders on disinterest. I WOULD NOT BE SHOCKED IF TORTS BENCHED HIM!!!

On the other hand the unexpected return of Derek Dorsett (who fractured his clavicle in March) gives you guys some badly needed attitude, IMO.

And the blossoming of Derrick Brassard is a joy to see.

Who knew I'd be cheering for the Rangers?

 

[puckforbrains]

Blujax01...Like you,I have watched Nash for many years and seeing his current play makes me suspect that he is nursing some sort of injury.

 

[alde]

Players like Sid the Kid just amaze me with their natural ability and skill. He was away from the game for weeks unable to eat right or do full workouts and he plays like he never had his injury. He's got something special for sure.

 

[Strato]

Ok I'm ready for today's game

GO WINGS

 

[yeti]

I am ready too. Let's see if Babcock's boys can answer.
GO HAWKS!!

We have a noon game today because of the Bulls playoff schedule, which is a mute point now.
Noon?? How are we supposed to have a festival at noon?
I want to watch hockey at night...not at noon. Now I will get all fired up, then....mow the lawn.

 

[labworm]

Ok I'm ready for today's game

GO WINGS

I guess you will be wearing your favorite hockey shirt during the game as always.

Waiting for Sunday to arrive

While at youtube I came across this hockey video, some may enjoy watching.

23 years have gone by just like snapping a finger.
