BOOM. Parayko ties it 1-1 on the PP.

 

[KingTucker]

The Blackhawks touched the puck while coming out of the box in game one. The NHL needs to fix their consistency it's annoying.

Don't disagree here, the Caps-Flyers game one was pretty brutal with the calls, Caps could have had more PP early, then got too many PP on the backside. Pretty happy with the Cpas being up 2-0 though, can't stand Philly at all.

Parayko has been a great find for St.Louis big D who can skate fairly well.

 

[KingTucker]

Panarin 2-1 Hawks now. Damn what an unlucky bounce for Els.

 

[Metalleaf]

Blues are gonna lose another six game series methinks.

 

[KingTucker]

Berglund off another bounce, 2-2 now.

 

[Metalleaf]

Lehtera must be Finnish for wasted opportunity.

 

[Metalleaf]

Nice! Schwartz.

 

[Leafin']

I'm 100% ok with LA and Chicago getting bounced in the 1st round.

 

[Hoss]

I have a feeling so does Anaheim.

 

[JackBurton]

It's the Blues year imo.

 

[MindzEye]

Nah, the Sharks are going to get over the hump this year finally and make a SC final.

 

[Jeremy]

Naw, Ovie's year fo sho

 

[Altair]

Sucks that vesey is missing out on nashville being knocked out in the first round...

Do you have some personal connection to the city of Nashville, Habitants? Because it continues to baffle me how butthurt you are that a decent, but not blue-chip prospect decided to exercise his right to play wherever he wants instead of signing on to spend the next seven years living in Tennessee, playing for a small-market hockey team.

And I mean, they're not even your favourite hockey team either.

Anyways, that aside, while a two game lead doesn't mean a series is over by any stretch of the imagination, it would be funny if San Jose was the only California team to avoid getting knocked out in the first round. And I wouldn't mind at all if we got to see a completely different crop of teams in the semi-finals this year.

Nashville is a fun town. Just saying.

Nashville is a fun town. Just saying.

It is a fun town... to visit. Living in Nashville with the amount of old school thinking and zealous religious nuts may be a different story.

 

[Preston_Mizzi]

Nashville is one of the funnest towns in the NHL for any pro athlete or degenerate.

 

[LeafGm]

Nobody's disputing that Nashville may be a "fun" place to visit or live.

I'm just a little confused by the attachment a Canadian who cheers for the Habs and lives in Canada seems to have for the place and its hockey team.

for the Leafs' sake, I was really hoping Pittsburgh and Tampa would go out as soon as possible in the playoff.

Pens because our pick depends on how far they can go in the playoff.

Tampa because I don't want Stamkos to think this team is 'close' to winning it all. Another SC finals without him would be pretty tempting for him to re-sign there.

So I'm glad both teams lost their first game over the weekend.

Go Wings! Go Rangers!
