I hate to do this Falcon but… Go Penguins!
What’s is this curse thinger you had mentioned??
Could it possibly be the fact that The Caps have lost to the Penguins 5 out of 6 times in the playoffs since 92?
LeSang has given me new found appreciation for smilies.

Actually, I’m well east of Pittsburgh, but thanks for rooting for my team.
Go Pens, go Sabres, go Wings (in that order).
Another Sens fan here. At first I predicted Sens in six, but NO! those Leafs are somehow making an upset!
GO SENS GO!
What setback? Is a 4-0 rout a setback?
…of course, I blame myself for the Wings’ loss last night - couldn’t handle the 11:30pm start time, what with being sick and all. I know, I know, what kind of fan am I?
I still say Wings in 5.
Oh, and MysterEcks–if you root for the Pens, you’re automatically cool, whether you live there or not!
Woooohooooo! Pens are now 2 and 1
<chanting>
Let’s go Pens! Let’s go Pens!

LeSang:
Hrmpf. I STILL say…
C-A-P-S, CAPS CAPS CAPS!!!
I say again:
Curse?? WHAT curse???
WOO! Caps score 4 goals to win, last one in OT! Series 2-2, and we’re back to DC!
LET’S GO CAPS!
Can I come up there and learn how to play that “Prison Riot Hockey” like the Devils apparently play?
Or is that just the best strategy your guys could come up with - don’t try to play well, just put the opposing team in the hospital one-by-one until ya win by default?
Sincerely,
A ticked-off 'Canes fan (one of thousands)
Well, that was just so scary. Booing when he had the puck. I don’t know how he stood that. :rolleyes:
Uhhhh… Ummmm… Anyone here think Toronto in FOUR? WTF?
Oh well…
GOLF, SENS, GOLF!
Hey Tygr
One word: “Waaah!”
Yer just jealous because we know how to do it. It’s the perfect move too - Go after key leadership or team centers of gravity, and pick them guys off! This will reduce your team into the cold quivering children they are. So . . .
Lets go Devils!!
Tripler
Just $0.02. Keep the change.
What in the world happens to the Senators in the playoffs. It’s like they completely forget how to play!!!
I don’t have a favorite for the playoff’s. But I do have a LEAST favorite. coDETROITugh.
I don’t live in an NHL city, so I find out who has players from the Major Junior team in town and root for their teams. (There are lots this year. FYI Major Junior is high level hockey aged 16-20. Fun stuff)
So this year… I get to root for…
Buffalo-- because they drafted one of the guys who’s on our team this year. (Remember the name Paul Gaustad Buffalo fans. And remember in three years that you heard it here first.) Washington has Konawalchuk and Zednik. But I’ll go with Pittsburgh because Andy Ferrence rules! Nobody in Carolina/New Jersey. And I can no longer root for Hossa on the Senators. <sob>
Out west, Brendan Morrow from Dallas, baby! (Josh Green was on the same team as Morrow for a bit. But Green moved up to LA.)
Nobody in San Jose/St. Louis. Then my personal favorite, DEADMARSH BABY! GO KINGS!
Actually I just like watching good hockey. And thought I’d take this time to brag about how good my Jr. Hockey team does at churning out quality NHL Players.
The NHL Playoff’s are the greatest in the world! This sport kicks ass!
Gotta love it when someone gripes that a hockey team is being too physical.
Isn’t the physical nature of the game what helps make it the last true sport? Don’t teams go out of their way to draft big tough players so they can dominate physically?
Let’s go Dev-ils!
/clap clap clapclapclap
WoooHoooo! another Wings fan checkin in here! You all can heem and haugh all you want about your little Minnesota town or what not, or you Candaians, but you all know, deep down in your hearts that Detroit is where it’s at! It’s 2-2, but im confident in the origional prediction that was posted, wings in 6!
Woo Woo Salvador scores!!!
I have a new found respect for french canadiens, especially ones whose names start with Pierre and end with Turgeon. Good luck in game 6 guppies, you’ll need it…
Let’s go Blues!!!
Noooolan…noooollaaaaan
I seem to recall Pronger taking 5 penalties on Tuesday.
The only problem was that the Sharks didn’t score on any of the resulting power plays.
But still, you have to admit that Pronger just about lost it.
ahem… I take back my previous post.
I have been chastised for my woeful lack of faith in the blue-and-white (but then, 99.9999% of Toronto fans were probably in the same position).
So I’d just like to say:
GO LEEEEEEEEEEAFS GO!
There is no god but CuJo, and Sundin is his prophet.
(apologies to any Muslims out there)
:):):):)
Next up: revenge on the Devils for making us look like such wussies last spring.
[sub]Note to Falcon: I will be in DC in a week so you can hit me for this one if you want to [/sub]

Curse?? WHAT curse???
That curse, Falc, that one. I can’t lie about smiling right now
Le Sang,
resident psychotic maniac and Pens fan
Hell yes.
I think I am going to drive to da burgh just so I can give Straka a big’ol smooch on the lips.
Bring on Buffalo!
Buffalo is ready for ya, let me tell you. 8-0, baby. Eight to zero. Did I mention eight to ZERO? There is nothing like blowout, shutout hockey to end a playoff round.
Let’s go Buffalo!
