May 22, 201313 yr Torts needs to go. I think you are right, Dinny. He says a lot of wrong things at wrong times.
May 22, 201313 yr Author I think you are right, Dinny. He says a lot of wrong things at wrong times. He DOES a lot of wrong things MANY times. Love his competitiveness, but he hasn't been able to get the ebst out of the talented NYR players. Oddly, many folks were complaining about Claude Julien being similar: too defensive-first, will stick too long to a potentially-faulty system, etc. But it worked, I think the team rallies behind him more....
May 23, 201313 yr Man, the Pens made that one look easy. Not much hope for the Senns now. Big night tomorrow night. Three games, all exciting. Love playoff time.
May 23, 201313 yr If the Bruins beat the Rangers, I'll have a pretty easy time rooting for them the rest of the way. I like the way they play.
May 23, 201313 yr If when the Bruins beat the Rangers, I'll have a pretty easy time rooting for them the rest of the way. I like the way they play. ftfy I can taste that 1st cold one already.
May 23, 201313 yr The Wings have always been a great clutch and scrappy team, which is one reason why I'm such a fan, but I think we'll see tonight if it's just scrappiness or if they've gotten their act together as a team. The Hawks are just too good to let this series slip away, and I anticipate them coming out as the machine they've been all season. I'll be shocked if they don't. Hoping Detroit can keep raising their level of play. We'll see. I'm really looking forward to this one.
May 23, 201313 yr Yeah, Vicki, the Hawks could break out at any time, sort of like the Penguins did last night in the 3rd vs the Senators. Somehow I don't think the Wings will let them though. As you say, they (Wings) have a history and tradition of playing tough. Likewise, the Rangers are a much better team than has showed up against the Bruins so far, and tonight at home may be their night. As to the Sharks, I hope they stay fired up and pull off a series upset of L.A. Isn't playoff hockey fun?
May 24, 201313 yr Detroit's offensive hustle seems a bit slow compared to the last two games, and I don't like how much time Chicago seems to be getting in Detroit's zone.
May 24, 201313 yr I am quite grumpy with the status of tonight's games as well, Vicki. Just a snapshot in time, though. It ain't over till it's over. Bs have 5:00 to score and win as I type ....
May 24, 201313 yr Some extraordinarily soft goals by the B's tonight though, Gene. This never should have ended up in OT.
May 24, 201313 yr Are you kidding me? Bruins dominate OT for all but 10 seconds, and Kreider sticks one in. That's why they play the games. Getting a bit parched, Dinny.
May 24, 201313 yr Wings open net goal with :36 left. Love home turf. Who wold have predicted Wings 3-1 over the Hawks? Great game. Go Sharks.
May 24, 201313 yr Sharks - Kings 0-0 at 1st intermission. Lots of pressure from L.A. but Fish have held up. Late here on east coast, so off to bed, and up to the NorCal bunch to bring the Sharks home.
May 24, 201313 yr Rangers make it interesting. Congrat Dinny!Wings are amazing! Sharks are even and hopefully can get over the Kings for their first series lead. Nite Gene!
May 25, 201313 yr Author ^^ Don't have any fingernails left......hats off to Rangers, they are playing much better the last couple games. Weird to think that powerplays are making such a difference in this game....3rd period may have nothing called unless there's a decapitation!
May 25, 201313 yr Yeah, all of a sudden we have to worry about being short. Gonna be a great 3rd period. Wings - Hawks will be great, too.
