My gut reaction after seeing the play was 5 games (it works out well as the remainder of regular season).

That's what I would say too, but I would be surprised with anything more than two.

Amazingly, it's the second time in his career that he's given someone a one-handed slash to the face.

Yea, I had forgotten about the Carter incident. I just saw a gif of it again, he really tagged him right in the mouth.

The Blackhawks are really limping into the playoffs at this point. Kane might not even hit 100 points, which I thought was a lock for a long time.

15 games i would say. crap like that is inexcusable. make a statement

So no Canadian teams in the playoffs

None even close, either. They could end up with the bottom five.

That just means we should retract... and or send some more teams north.

Well... even when they suck, the Canadian teams bring in a huge amount of money for the league to keep a bunch of other teams afloat, so... more teams north would probably be the best choice.

Jagr's gritty play at his age continues to impress. Battles to the front of the net while getting cross-checked in the backed multiple times, sets up the screen and apparently the puck deflects off of him for the goal.

If he plays healthy next year he'll get to 1900 and move into 2nd place all-time.

Holy shit Stamkos

Holy shit Stamkos

Right when he was heating up, too. 1-3 months is a large window, guess he won't be back unless the Bolts make a deep playoff run.

[Peeps]

it sounds stupid and completely inane but how in the hell does malkin fit in when he comes back?

[Strat]

lol at the wild. Fuck i hope they can pull something together and make a decent showing.

There was no on-ice celebration, no champagne popped in the locker room.

In fact, the Wild might have been the first team in NHL history booed off the ice by its home crowd on a night it clinched a playoff berth.

Thought it was cool that the Wild ended up pulling the former North Stars in the first round. Stars will probably be heavy favorites though.

Hope that all of you motherfuckers enjoy the playoffs.

I can't decide if im excited or not. Wild vs Stars.

At this point it will be a blow out and ill wish i never got my hopes up.

Yay, MN

Is Florida going to make a run?

[Strat]

So, Dallas had won 11 of their last 13 or something without their top player. The wild had lost their lsat 5 games, only got into the playoffs becuase Colorado is even worse, and we lost our top 3 players.

Im gonna need a lot of booze for this game.

[chuck taylor]

Is Florida going to make a run?

Would be nice to see them make a run. I'd like to see Blues-Caps or Blues-Panthers in the Finals, but this year's playoffs seem really tough to predict for some reason.

[E.H. Ruddock]

That was a crazy panthers/islanders game
