Sam Rosen says it's Over

Hey, they made it through round 1.  We are a city of low hockey expectations this year.

Poti had a right to be pissed about that 2nd goal with no interference called.  But once it doesnt get called, get over it.  He led to the OT gift.

Flyers are done in 5.

I hope most noticed the side story of a bear visiting a school.  Warms the cockles of Matt's heart.

so how about them rangers? hahaha

Who am I kidding, without a power play the Rangers will be golfing in May sometime.

The Devils will get there first though.

I stand by my initial statement, 1 for 14 will get you to the golf course.

And I add this, Sydney Crosby is a pussy.  But Malkin is the shit.  And when did Marc-Andre Fleury get good again?  I must have missed that memo.

This "Censored" shit is for the birds too, aren't we all adults here?

I hate you Tommy.

PS.  ...not really

Rangers just aren't as good as people think.

There powerplay is a little bit of a mystery, but I think the Pens did their homework.  The move through the rags d and lundquist at will.  They also handed momentum back at least twice by continuing to play sloppy.

They had an easy first round last year and got bounced by a good team in the next round.  The same thing holds true now.  And not, if those injuries hold them up, good bye.

The Ron Dugay "Versus" style commentary was the most pathetic attempt of copying a successful segment from another network, and sucking at it that I have ever seen in sports television.  I keep thinking its a goof.

The Flyers, much to my dismay are impressing me.  I knew they had a good team coming into the year, but they are only going to get better soon when the IR clears up.  The East should still be crushed by the west in the cup round, but we will see.

Flyers v. Pens in the Conference Finals...

Flyers will destroy the Canadiens after our loyal fans get done rituallistically sacrificing a canadien virgin to the Kate Smith statue at the spectrum.

The funniest sign of the playoffs thus far goes to the flyers fan holding up a huge white sign saying "You'll Choke!" to Price every time he skated up to the right circle during breaks.

A+ Emily.

Flyers 3 Games

Monkey Ball Suckers: 1 Game

Here we come shitbags.....er Penguins

The cock / penis censor, a remnant of Matt White's latest ether binge, has been lifted. 

Now that really does warm the cockles of my heart. Thanks Geoff.

Makes my penis feel nice too!

Ether binge?  I did not realize that you were a fan of Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, one of my "read very five years" books.
Joe, I will not dance around saying you were a lousy prognosticator concerning the Flyers, cause I thought they would be out in 6 in my rational thoughts.  However, my heart keeps shouting "Go Flyers!" and is amazed that they're still skating.

Charlie, for someone being alive for the 1906 World Series I would think you would know a thing or two about upsets and have alittle more faith in the orange and black. 

For the record, dont misunderstand me.  I hate the flyers as much as the devils, but hate both far less than the rags. 

I can appreciate skilled players and a well played series, as I am a rabid hockey fan. 

And overall, it wont matter anyway.  The western rep. should rip any remaining team from the east a new ass in the cup finals.


Until next season.  Go Isles.

FYI Matt, I played in thge 1906 World Series.  I appreciate upsets, remembering and listening to the worst meltdown ever, the 1964 Phillies.  If 1950 was the Whiz Kids, then the 1964 team will be remembered as the Was Kids.

Thank you The Todd

To get this post back on topic:

Nice to see the Rangers get some bounces, some solid goaltending and prevent the sweep, but it's too little too late at this point, and Pitt seems to be the East's Team of Destiny.

How will the Team of Destiny hold up to the juggernaut that is Detroit?  Not well I think.  Let's just hope it's competitive and fun to watch, and the not the complete domination it's shaping up to be.

Did anyone see the hit that caused Avery's spleen injury?  No?  Neither did I, but isn't a ruptured spleen the kind of thing you see in car accidents?  And he finished the game, yeah hockey players are tough.

I really hope Tom Renney doesn't lose his job, I think he is one of the most intelligent, well-spoken, loyal and dedicated coaches in hockey, he just needs to tune a few guys into the system more.  If he should end up jobless, let me be the first to say he won't be unemployed long.

I listened to Jagr explain that, at 36, he can't go every game the way he has this playoffs, and while it makes sense to listen to, I am not sure I am buying it.  I would hate to see the guy go play elsewhere, if he can bring this sort of game to the playoffs, but at 7 million dollars you don't get to play half a season.  Take a salary cut to 4 million if you wanna play that way.

Just sayin'.

We asked Ryan smith about losing game 4, 8-2 to Detroit and being swept in the series. 

He had this to say.

Every monumental comeback has to start with one game.

Keepin the faith alive.

rangers are going down in  a big way. pens are going for the cup this year.

Pens are a bunch of cockjockeys

Makes my penis feel nice too!

A++++++++++++++

rangers are going down in  a big way. pens are going for the cup this year.

Lol, you really went out on a limb there, Rangers being down 3-1 and all. 

But I bet the Pens do NOT win the Cup this year, my money is on the Big Red Machine out of the Motor City.

Who is this guy who I've never seen at an event in the 20 months I've been attending?

Charlie are you calling this guy out!?!?!?!

OLD MAN FIGHT!!!!!
