Stanley Cup Playoffs

• slingshot4ever

  Blackhawks kill off the remainder of the 5 minute major in OT and Hossa scores the game winner a minutea after the penalty expires. Hawks up 3-2 in the series!
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  Preds have got to be kicking themselves for letting that pivotal game slip away.......
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Awesome game. Hossa was at the right place at the right time. Preds had their shots on the PP though.
  Going to Nashville, with the Hawks up 3-2.
  That could be the series, but I have a feeling this comes back to Chicago as Nashville played a great 2nd and 3rd periods.
• End of Line

  

  Nashville will win game 6.

  How about the competition so far in terms of all the series? all but one playoff team has won at least 2 games in their series.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Pens win in OT, 4-3 in OT, 9:56.
  Pens advance to probably play the winner of Sabers, Bruins series (unless a major upset by the Canadians)
  Great great series.
  All of the first round series have been awesome. Great hockey.
  
  The Sharks are ahead 1-0 over the Avs in the 1st.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Sharks dominate the 1st period and were up 1-0. Then in the 2nd, Avs got a breakaway and tied the game.
  A tough, gritty, hard hitting game. Sharks have pretty much dominated.
  4on 4 action now, 5 to go in the 2nd.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Avs, Brandon Yip, just put one in to take the lead, 2-1.
  15 to go in the 3rd.
  
  Sharks are dominating shots and hits, but the Avs find ways to get goals.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Dan Boyle, just after Heatly missed one, gets one in from the Stanley Cup logo. Great shot.
  Tied again.
  12:27 left in the 3rd.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Just like that, the Sharks get a 2 on 1 breakaway and they score again.
  3-2 Sharks, 10:50 left.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Sharks just got two empty-netters with under a minute left. Pretty much sealing it.
  5-2 final
  Sharks win the series, 4-2, their first first round series win in 6 years.
  Sharks woke up after the Avs 2nd goal. Anderson had a solid series though, but the Avs did not have the firepower to take the series to 7. Avs have a bright future next year. I see the Sharks facing more difficulties whoever they face in the next round.
  
  The Sharks join the Flyers and Pens in advancing to the 2nd round.
• End of Line

  

  I expect Buffalo to win, and Detroit to close out at home.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Light day today, only two games, both in the West.
  On NBC at 2:00pm
  Game Six: 4. Coyotes at 5. Wings, Wings lead 3-2.
  
  On Vs at 9:00pm:
  Game Six: 3. Canucks at 6. Kings, Canucks lead 3-2.
  
  I expect the Wings to close out the series today and the Kings to send it back to Canada and get revenge for the thrashing they took in game 5.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Wings had two straight PP, and the Coyotes get a faceoff win, good breakaway and then get a short handed goal.
  
  1-0 Coyotes. But, Coyotes get another penalty. 5-3 now.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Impressive defense and goaltending as the Coyotes withstand 5 minutes of the Wings being on the PP.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  End of 1, the Coyotes are withstanding the onslaught. Coyotes ahead 1-0.
• gabuckeye

  I hate when Goaltenders are on their game.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  After the Wings can't get anything in, the Coyotes on the PP, get a goal, 2-0 Coyotes. Wow.
  Great defense by the Coyotes.
  
  And just as I am typing the Wings come back to make it 2-1.
• gabuckeye

  Great game. Go Wings.
• bwcomet89

  Wimgs have been controlling this game, but Bryzgalov has been spectacular to say the least.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Coyotes get another one during a PP. They are finishing, while the Wings simply cannot.
  3-1 Coyotes, 8:00 left in the 2nd.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Wow, Coyotes get another one, just control the faceoff,, dump it inside and get a redirection.
  
  4-1 Coyotes.
• Heretic

  

  Man, that series might not be over yet. With the way the Wings took a 3-2 edge in the series, I figured they'd wax the Coyotes on their ice. Now, it's looking like they'll have to endure a Game 7 in hostile environment if they're going to move on.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  End of 2, 4-1 Coyotes. Unless the Wings channel the Caps and Pens, this series is going to a Game 7.

  ^^It won't happen.
