I agree!
(Allons-y Les Habs!)
Either a great comeback by th ducks or a super choke by Dallas in the game just finished.
dallas 4-2 with 3 mins to go.
ducks won in overtime.

RE: NHL 2013
I'd be happy to see the Ducks make a bit of a run, watch the Teemu fairytale narrative grow. Plus, it'd be nice for Ryan Getzlaf to know that he didn't take a puck to the face for nothing;
Flyers down 3-2 to the Rags. Mason came back & hands down won game 4 for us but I don't think we'll be able to pull the next two off. Still got faith but I think we're up against it right now. TBH I'll settle for someone going out there & knocking Dan Carcillo around like a rag doll.

RE: NHL 2013
So close but no cigar! Disappointed to get knocked out obviously but at least this is a team on the rise. Our only real issue right now is some horrible contracts that are clogging up our cap numbers (Check out Hartnell & Macdonald's contracts if you feel like being irritated). The blue line is still very weak, but there's some great prospects coming through that could be top 4 D-men very soon. I'd love to see Kimmo Timonen come back for one last run around but if not, what a career he's had, a true champion. Shame he never won a cup.
As for the man between the pipes...well, Steve Mason inspires a lot more confidence in me than any other Flyers' goalie in a looooong time. Stone Cold was an absolute boss this year.
Just saw that the Torts era is over in Vancouver, Thoughts on that GE? I didn't like the hire in the first place but it does seem a bit strange to oust him now. Guess the Nucks are going for the full clean-out, which makes you wonder if they'll trade away the Sedins, Kesler, Bieksa etc. & go the tanking route.

RE: NHL 2013
We were watching the game last night but in case you had it recorded....I didn't want to spoil anything more than the result for you.
There are a lot of relieved penguin fans about today as philly always seems to have the wood over them in the playoffs. Would have been an exciting series.
Hopefully for you, Mason follows up this year with similar performances next.
I always thought he was a bit of start hot go freezing type. (what do I know)
Speaking of hot to freezing....torts.
Word was last night that today he was going to get the boot.
Must admit I was kind of happy when he got hired. A bit of fire on the bench. Started off ok too but the first line was getting ground into the ice.
Proof was when Henrick, who play something like 950 games straight, got injured under torts.
So I didn't like his, defend at all costs, dive in front of the puck, annnnd hopefully score a goal and win the match 1-0.
To have him call our roster stale when refusing to use any young players makes him sound like a right royal idiot.
In the end I was happy to see him go. His block pucks with your body and play 30 mins a game was like oil and water to the players.
Not happy that mike sullivan got the flick as well. As the penalty killing coach he seemed to be the only one to know what he was doing.
I think maybe Kesler will be traded but that's about it. Sedins' will stay and although I see mistakes creeping into bieska's game, he's still a good defenseman and good person to have around the team.
All that said, torts has a stanley cup and is the most winning-est american born coach, but his system was just crap in vancouver.
Time to sit back and enjoy the remaining match ups and don the eternal 'this year is our year' canuck mantra for next season (unless bettman ruins it).
Thanks for reading.

RE: NHL 2013
Good one, thanks for that!
So far there are a couple of players from the nhl in that list. Most seem to be from the second tier comps, which is still far better than any of the aussie players.
If I was still in brisvagas and if campbell newman hasn't outlawed hockey by then, I'd go.
Watch out for flying pucks, dress warm and enjoy the hits and (probably) decent refereeing!

RE: NHL 2013
I've just been taking notice of the championship updates on Fox; ice-hockey being one of the few sports I've not taken much interest in over the journey.
They're talking up the big rivalry for the Stanley Cup now: New York v LA. Twenty years since the Rangers last won it (and I do remember the buzz around Metzer and the Rangers back then).
What I'm left with most though, is just the amazing skill and athleticism of these guys...I can't even roller-skate, much less ice-skate, much, much less play hockey dressed and padded up to the max as well!
They are saying for the impartial perhaps the Rangers are more worthy, having last won 20 years ago (and the Kings 2 years ago).
What's the real drum on who's more entitled here guys?

RE: NHL 2013
well....the last time rangers won was when they beat my team, the canucks, in game seven in one of those heart tearing moments.
So you're not going to get much love for the rangers from me!!!
I don't know about entitlement but the west coast (LA) is a much stronger conference than the east coast (ny) so LA should....that's should win it fairly convincingly.
The skill of those guys are pretty amazing!
