GDT: New Jersey Devils @ Carolina Hurricanes: Last Second Edition

[Emperoreddy]

I think Pittsburgh has a decent chance this year to make it past the first round if they can get their goaltending and offense both working at the same time.

And I forgot Malkin is out for at least the start of the playoffs. So on second thought, maybe not. With Malkin in the lineup and the Fleury of last year's playoffs, I think they can beat the Rangers. They just might have a better head coach than Dan and that nameless guy that just got fired.

Fake looking hair guy.

They still have the same problems they always have, but they are hot and the Rags look vulnerable so I think Pitt can win that series.

Who is the toughest match up for the Caps in the eastern conference this season?

Their nemesis, the Rags.

 

[MadDevil]

Their nemesis, the Rags.

If the Caps can't beat this version of the Rangers...

 

[Brick City]

So all that said, who do we root for in the Eastern Conference this coming playoffs?

Easily Florida for me. And anyone playing the Rags.

Is Yormark still with the Panthers?

If so, I can't root for them (aside vs Rags or Philly).

 

[The Wumpus]

Florida is a likable team, so I'll be rooting for them, but I'd really like to see Ovechkin lift it. He's been an outrageously entertaining player for a long time.

But mostly it's all about whoever is playing the Rangers.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Whoever is playing the rags, flyers, pens, kings or hawks for me.

Nope

Yormark is gone now.

that sounds about right

 

[Rhodes 81]

I'll be rooting for the caps and Hawks like I always do. I hope the caps can do it this year for once.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

that sounds about right

Realistically I could add the isles to the list as well.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Please do

 

[MadDevil]

Anybody but the Rangers, Pens, Flyers, Avs, or Wild. I am kind of tired of the Hawks and Kings as well. I respect them for being basically the cap world versions of the Wings and Devils, but I wouldn't mind seeing some fresh blood win it.

 

[Bleedred]

Go Sharks!

Go Pete!

I think this was the second game I missed all season, was it a total **** show?

The 1st period looked like it actually was taking place in Columbus, rather than Raleigh.

A gift goal to Farnham and Cam Ward getting caught out of net got us back down by 1 goal, early in the 2nd period. And that's exactly how the game ended. We looked amazing for 5 minutes or so, after Ward's softies deflated the Canes. But couldn't cash in.

We had 9 or 10 shots on goal in the 3rd period. One was a Blandisi breakaway, which was probably our best chance of the game. And then 7-8 point shots (not exaggerating at all) and one shot from Mike Sislo in the slot, which was an easy ass save for Ward.

I don't know what it was officially, but Sislo had at least 3 shots on goal in the 3rd period. 2 point shots, and the easy save on a 15MPH wrister in the slot. The Canes did an amazing job at shutting down almost our entire team in the 3rd, other than Mike Sislo. Unfortunately for us, you can be as bad or worse than Cam Ward is and still shutdown Sislo.

Thanks, I think I've seen this one numerous times lol.
