  Not gonna happen. Weather and the Rose Bowl is right down the road.
  
  You realize how far away people would be from the rink if they sat in the OF?

  Hating the Devils, I can understand. Everyone has teams they hate (Rangers and Flyers for me). How can you hate Marty though? What's not to like about him?

  Oh no doubt.
  
  RawDawg, who you got in the finals?

  Game 1 is in OT

  Kings win!

  Good game 1 I see this one going the distance.
  All with 4 or less goals scored combined.

  Hard to believe next season Mr. Lidstrom will not be on the ice. Perhaps the best defenseman to ever play the game.

  #4 Bobby Orr...no bias or anything though.

  Been saying LA was going to win it all for a little while now. No one in the east would've made it out of the West this year IMO.

  Raw, could Thomas really sit out next season? http://www.indystar.com/usatoday/article/706048?odyssey=mod%7Cnewswell%7Ctext%7CSports%7Cp&usatref=sportsmod
• gerb131

  

  2-0 for the Kings as Jeff Fucking Carter gets the winner.
  Onto LA for a potential closeout.

  He wants to focus on the three F's - Family, Friendship, and Faith. What a fucking nut job, the problem is he has a no movement clause until FA begins and if we keep him and suspend him for the year we eat his $5m cap.
  
  Honestly, trade the old dude. He won Boston a cup but this is a business and boston has 2 youngsters behind Thomas and just signed a prospect from Sweeden. I was hoping they would trade him sooner than later but now that this comes out i think it'll be had to move someone who will be 40 and rusty when/if he comes back.
  
  He pretty much fucked us on a trade for quality forward.

  Saw that. Traded a 2012 7th round draft pick for him. Then signed him to a 2-year deal. Great move. Should be a quality backup that allows Fleury to get more days off during the season.

  Simon Gagne to return to the Kings lineup.

  Break out the brooms.

  All these years basically watching every Wings game and let me tell you, he was unstoppable out there. Just made it look so easy and shut everyone down. He didn't even have to check the f*ck out of them, just would consistently strip it for two decades. Oh and yeah his slapshot and offense were great. Him and Bobby are among the best
• End of Line

  

  When it comes to lidstrom's all time ranking he's one of the best but, Orr and Potvin were better.
• Raw Dawgin' it

  

  What a disappointing final. Glad the west won since my team is out. Dustin Penner went to Maine so I'd like to see him get another cup.

  0-0 almost end of 2
