NHL Playoffs: Eastern Conference Quarterfinals

I'm really disappointed at the Capitals but the Habs have been really playing well the last 2 games.

The Caps really need to step it up.

Not sure I've ever seen a better performance in goal than Halak in Game 6. That was insane.Polybren

Wednesday's game is going to be crazy. Halak has been brilliant, but you have to figure Ovechkin is going to be frequenting the red-light district.

Also: how long until a Price+picks+prospects for Lecavalier trade?

They say Kovalchuck is going to the KHL?X360PS3AMD05

Ya, that's a possibility since they would pay him more. They would love that big a star leaving the NHL for them. They also think that he might go there because the NHL may not go to the next Olympics, and going to the KHL would let him play in them, in his home country.

EDIT: I know I said Washington, but I'd love to see an upset, especially by a Canadian team.

That'd be great, considering EVERYONE thought the Caps would make meat out of the Canadians

Not everyone, only people who are ignorant about the Canadiens. This season, they went 2-1-1 against the Caps. Why? Because the Canadiens is a team that plays always well against fast, finesse teams. They struggle against teams that grinds out games.

:( I swear D.C. teams can't catch a break at all :cry:.

Bruins have home ice! Wow never in a million before these playoffs began did I think the Bruins had a chance to make it past the first round let alone have home ice during the second! GO BRUINS BABY!!!!!!!!!

I don't get tired of seeing the Caps lose.

Welp, Pens vs. Habs, Bruins vs. Flyers in the Eastern Semis. I don't think anyone expected that when the playoffs started.

Semin disappeared again.

Russians player disappears in the playoffs. It may sound a bit racist, but its an actual trend in the NHL. There's a reason why you see sometime Russian players leaving to play in their own country. They just dont care as much about the Stanley Cup like North-Americans do.

Montreal better take out Pittsburgh.

The canadiens are going to win the cup! Halak is the best goalie.

bloodling

I'll say it again 2 weeks later, we're gonna win the cup!!! And Im gonna win a lot of money :)

In your face Capitals! Go Montreal! Stanley Cup final: Vancouver vs Montreal. (Would love to see that)

Bruins take an early lead in the series thanks to Marc Savard!

That bruins game was a great game. Playoff hockey>any other playoffs.

Having Savard back is the key, Boston should roll through this series in either 5 or 6 games. Philly is missing Carter, Gagne, and Laperriere. Not to mention Brian Boucher is not the great of a goaltender.

[QUOTE="Mkavanaugh77"][QUOTE="blackngold29"] Can't argue with that!rmerri52

The College Basketball National Championship and the SuperBowl are harder to win IMO. Its do or die every single game in those. But in terms of 4 out of 7 series like in the NBA and the MLB, the NHL is clearly superior. And yes I know the MLB has a 3 out of 5 in the first round, but you get what I mean.

Hey Hey, I did say "should" roll, not they "will" roll

Boston up 3-2 with two minutes to go...

Great save by Pronger.

I'd be happy if Boston can take one in Phily

Well they did, I TOLD you Boston had the ability to roll through this series! Philly is not as good as Buffalo especially with two top scorers missing.I was disappointed that the Wachovia Center wasn't rocking as it usually is. Very surprising.

Habs are showing some fight, tying up the series with the Pens 2-2.

Mhm.

It would be nice to see Boston to take the series tonight. But more injuries :(

Well Fleury has a great game last night as the Pens are up 3-2. Should be a great game 6.

The Bruins will unveil the "Flying Orr" statue for their Game 5 tilt tomorrow. Wonder how the Flyers will feel about that?

Go Bruins!

Looks like Habs and Pens are gonna have a game 7!Mkavanaugh77

YES!!! 5-2 habs with 10 minutes to go!!! I knew this would be our year after seeing the 100th year celebration and the match that followed it.

Even though the Capitals lost to the Habs, I am glad to see the Penguins lose to them :lol:.

It has been an interesting post season.

GO HABS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO HABS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
