...et OVI termine la saison avec 49 buts....quand même pas mal. Je regardais la game et je souhaitais vraiment un hat-trick pour son 50ème...il a travaillé fort pour y arriver...a joué consécutivement 6 des 7 dernières minutes.. faut le faire.....mais en vain...et il était au bout du rouleau....chapeau.,,MAIS le gros test est encore devant lui....et cette fois j'ai confiance.

 

[Oz-Man]

Although it would be nice to see PK win the Norris, I think it will likely go to Hedman or perhaps Doughty.

 

[gaby]

Grubauer will start in the net Thursday for the Caps....big surprise BUT it shows la confiance que Trotz a en Holtby...et je le comprends très bien. Grubauer a très bien fait en fin de saison devant le filet BUT playoffs are another story.

 

[gaby]

It starts tonight....i will go first-round for

East.....PENS--CAPS--BRUINS---LIGHTNING.

West...PREDS--JETS--KINGS---SHARKS.

Enjoy....we should have exciting hockey.

 

[Sol Tee Nutz]

Pens, Wash Toronto, Bolts
Preds Jets Vegas Sharks

What do you think?

[tiga]

Love playoff hockey, 2-0 Pittsburgh!

 

[tiga]

3-0 Magnifique but de Malkin
C'est donc ça un centre....

Et on passe maintenant à Winnipeg 0-0 intense.

 

[tiga]

7-0 too much!!!

 

[Oz-Man]

It starts tonight....i will go first-round for East.....PENS--CAPS--BRUINS---LIGHTNING. West...PREDS--JETS--KINGS---SHARKS.

Those are my exact picks, except for the Sharks. I think the Ducks will win that one, based on their leadership core. As usual, there are bound to be some upsets. Colombus, in particular, might cause an upset.

 

[gaby]

Yes 7-0 Pens.....a lesson of hockey..et la cerise sur le sundae...le hat trick de Crosby avec un autre superbe but à la volée...spectaculaire again.

Jets 3-2 on Wild.....Minn. not an easy team to play. Have you seen the crowd outside the arena watching the game.....incredible....comment ne pas aimer cette équipe...

Et Vegas 1-0 on Kings....belle victoire mais je m'attendais à beaucoup plus des Kings.....sûrement une longue série.

And more to see tonight.

 

[gaby]

Bruins easy win....les jeunes Leafs ont été dominé et Andersen pas à la hauteur.....les Bruins sont solides et explosifs.
Easy also for the Lightning....le 2ème et 3ème trio ont fait le travail.....beaucoup de talent et profondeur.

Caps-Columbus.....the best game...and what a goal from Panarin in ot. Panarin a conduit Columbus en séries et peut-il les amener plus loin??? Bobrovsky a très bien joué.
Preds trop forts pour les AVS.

Belle victoire des Sharks 3-0...Evander Kane..bonne acquisition pour les séries.

Gaby, the Bruins lost Tommy Wingels due to this vicious hit from Nazem Kadri:

http://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/...my-wingels-boston-bruins-faces-nhl-discipline

Kadri now faces a discilplinary hearing, but says he did not do anything wrong, that he was committed to the hit, and that it is Wingel's problem that he left himself in a prone position. I am not sure I am buying that, what do you think? What punishment for Kadri, if any?

 

[gaby]

Kadry is a recidivist..has been suspended often...would say at least 3 games... he really knew what he was doing......btw Doughty has also been suspended for one game for an incident much less important...it will hurt the Kings......

 

[tiga]

Maybe it was a stretch taking Toronto over Boston...
The immature team seemed.to be the Leafs yesterday...

I was looking for an upset in the east, it might be CBJ...
Caps... What can you do...

 

[gaby]

Well OVI was quiet yesterday...they will need him and also a good performer in the net....2 grandes énigmes. ...mais j'ai encore confiance.

Wow...have you seen Marchand kissing TWICE Komarov on the cheek...hilarious...he said after the match....he was always on me...and he is cute...wow....quel bouffon...mais on l'aimerait bien a Montréal....lolll

Have you seen the second goal of Forsberg....wow...how spectacular it was.

I love playoffs too....

Je crois que les Flyers vont rebondir ce soir...n'ont pas vraiment le choix....

 

[gaby]

..and Kadri suspended 3 games...am not surprise...il le mérite.

 

[EagerBeaver]

Is he suspended for 3 playoff games or 3 regular season games next year?

 

[gaby]

Right now...3 playoffs games...very bad news for the Leafs...

 

[Oz-Man]

The Kadri suspension was predictable. As was mentioned, he is a repeat offender and pretty much admitted he was going for retribution for the hit on Marner.
