Subject: NHL Playoffs

Written By: RockandRollFan on 05/01/02 at 10:02 a.m.

So, let's hear it....what do YOU think about the playoffs so far and who do you think will take the Stanley Cup home?  I want my beloved Colorado Avalanche to repeat but they sure scared me in the 1st round by barely surviving those pesky L.A. Kings...yet again! It should be quite fun to see how the road to the cup goes  :)

Ottawa / Toronto
Montreal / Carolina

Sorry man, but I was rooting for the Kings to beat the avs.  I wanted my revenge on the Kings from last season.  And yes, I am a Red Wings fan ;D

Hey, No Problem here.  You have the right to root for anyone you want.  I appreciate your input...that is what is all to lost in this day and age....a little something called: Sportsmanship  ;)

Ah man, I hope the Sharks beat the avs so I finally go to a play-off game.  Hopefully I'll still be in CA if the Sharks/Wings go at it.  And hopefully I'll still be able to get tickets.

My Sharks?  LOL!  Nah, I'll be close enough by Anaheim for a weekend and if a game happens to fall on a date am there, am going.  But only if the Wings advance also, other than that, I'm going to Six Flags:)

Well R&RF, since I know 'Puck All' about the NHL (not true, if someone had asked me what the Stanley Cup was I WOULD have been able to tell them, but not much more mind you), I thought I would amuse myself, and probably others by making a rash prediction :

Colorado to defeat St Louis in West

Montreal to defeat Ottowa in East

Colorado to defeat Montreal in Stanley Cup Final

Does that sound plausible ?

What a game! Excellent hockey being played right now! Oh, except the Habs...they went down like a pile of bricks tonight...

It was a great game...but a friend of mine who lives Just to the north of there was pretty...please pardon the pun....Shaken but they are alright, thankfully ;)

    I was a little suprised to see Montreal go down the way they did, but that's partly why I don't predict sports...the other is I'm afraid I'll jinx my teams! Remember those losses the Broncos had to endure in the earlier Super Bowls...well, I learned the hard way, not to predict...so then they finally won the Super Bowl...back to back, at that :D So for now...as last year in the playoffs, I'll just hope the Avs win and take this stuff one game at a time ;)

Yes!  Even though they looked pretty lethargic through the first two periods of play, the Avalanche came through in the third to even the series at 2-2!  What great shot by Sackic!  Go Colorado :D

Hey, even though I do not care for detroit, "The Dominator" is still one of the games best ever goalies....he just had a rough game...it's more the defense' fault for allowing the Avs so many chances.  Great series though, IMO ;)

Well, if the Avs win at home tonight, it'll be the first Stanley Cup finals ever between ex-WHA teams.  (The Avs were originally the Québec Nordiques and the Canes were previously known as the Hartford Whalers, and when they played in the WHA, they were called the New England Whalers.)  So go Avs!  I want to see an all-ex-WHA Stanley Cup finals!

Subject: Re: NHL Playoffs

Written By: Crazy Don on 05/30/02 at 07:05 a.m.

Back to the old drawing board.  You'd think they'd've clinched the Western Conference berth in the Stanley Cup finals at home!  Now in order for the Avs to take on the Hurricanes in the Stanley Cup finals, they will have to dodge the octopi in Detroit…

Yes I did...I read it as we-stllsck :X I will have to say Go Carolina because even though my favorite team is and always will be the Avs, my Second favorite team then must be ANY team playing the wings and Jack Tatum...I mean George Atkinson...sorry...Chris Chelios  ;) After all it was a touchdown and extra point, ala football, right?!

Man whatever JC, I've been on vacation for like the past week or so.  As far as the Canes in 4, LOL!  That's a joke!  Hey the Wings were down against the Blues by two games and they came back to whoop some ass.  It's only one game.  At the most it will go to 6 games.  

BTW,  I heard a parody of Eminems "Without Me" of the version with the wings and so on,  it was wicked tight.  The chorus went something like .... "It looks like a job for the D / somethign something / something something / it feels so empty without stanley".  I want that MP3!  One verse went something like "the best thing next to wrestling / ice hockey. the best team is the red wings".  If anyone knows where I can find it, let me know.

yea typical av fan saying that the wings suck, yadda yadda yadda same ol same ol.  seems to me avs fan have nothing else to say but that,  can't you people come up with anything original?  

just a little taste of the parody.

Verse 2:
Vancouver bunch of pitiful losers
St. Louis they blew it they couldn't be bluer
Then Colorado took a stab at the cup
20 thousand fans yelling in the stands yelling "YOU SUCK!"
Semifinals ends in a high note
Perfect for Carolina don't try to deny us
You'll never see a better team last
The fact we dropped the avalanche down on their ass
And it's a disaster such of a catrastrophe
For you to see a 7 to nothing play-off masterpiece
