Nope. It's not a Jason Bourne "scoop", he's telling us what refs already know.

I think they could have won the Cup. That may be a stretch, as the Kings were damn good...but, could have at least given the Kings a greater run than they got from the Rangers. They could have gotten past the Rangers, and they proved capable of beating Montreal in the regular season. It's not that far of an idea, with the way they played in the playoffs ... if someone had caught fire offensively, things could have gone very differently..

I am not sure if you are right, but I totally get that train of thought. As a Sharks fan from way back, when they lost to the Leafs back in QF back in their miracle year, I am convinced that if Garpanlov hadn't hit the post and the Sharks won game 6 and that series, they would have beat the Canucks in the conference finals and given the Rangers and Messier a huge battle.

That team did EVERYTHING right, even though they weren't very good, to be honest. They had 5 awesome players, and 3 lines of grit and Irbe being incredible. Just needed one play.

…and I was sure the Jackets were going to beat the Rangers.

I had a hilarious response ready in case you'd reversed the order or your paragraphs, but you didn't so I can't use it.

Short version: San Jose would not have beaten Vancouver in 1994.

Long version: Nobody was going to beat Vancouver in that conference finals. They'd just destroyed Dallas, who had plenty of talent and plenty of physicality (some of it legal). The soft Vancouver team that had folded the previous two seasons got punched in the mouth by Dallas, but got right back up and countered with a flying elbow. That was a brutally physical series and Vancouver just dismantled the Stars.

Now, could San Jose have just bogged down Vancouver with non-physical defense and then countered? Sure, and it might have gotten them a game or two. But not four.

So now you have responses to posts before they are made and dependent on the order in which points are stated?

2 years ago after the Nash trade, we were down to a franchise low of ~7,000 and I think after the lockout shortened season it jumped to ~8,000? Maybe in the low 8,000's, but not too much. This past season's success and the upcoming ASG definitely caused a big bounce back and it's great to see.

We ain't seen nothin' yet. A good run in the playoffs will push that number back above 12,000.

So where is that stuff going to be served? I haven't seen anything like that food even on the Club lvl. Will it be for the high rollers, or in the buffet in the time warner lounge?

*Edit*

Other then the prime rib sandwich and stir fry.

It's for the suites

I want to eat that bacon dog.

Only problem is that I've made it a personal tradition to gorge on Skyline at every Jackets game I attend. I guess I could do both..

Pete, I think there is a subliminal message in white to confuse old guys like us. As you can see in the quote it says " chat homage". Dang youngins.

I kinda knew his exaggeration was intended, EK, but I don't use emoticons and have no idea how to add such hidden messages, so perhaps my response sounded more sincere than I hoped it might!
