Post-Game Talk: Playoff Discussion Thread Round Two: Ducks vs Flames

[DarthYenik]

On the topic of Ducks vs Hawks, I'm just happy we're back to being the underdog in that argument.

 

[Kalv]

Freddy always finds the right words

 

[Teemu Salami]

Mike Johnson is just soooo bad.. (paraphrasing) "The Flames gave the Ducks EVERYTHING they could handle".. No, no, no. That's something you could say about the Stars last year. Definitely not this series. Ugh.

 

[Kalv]

If you think about it - again opposition pissed of Perry only to see Perry bite them in the ass afterwards

Hope Pears will be ok

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

I'm up. Hooray! The first series was tougher. It's just that Ramo is a nightmare.

On to Chicago, where I'm sure [color] + [thing] makes it impossible for us to win in their building.

From an Oiler's fan…………thanks for the best Mother's Day present ever!

He's a Canadian blowhard. Screws things to please the Canadian audience.

I don`t know who but NBCSN broadcaster told that it`s Andersens first playoff series win

 

[KaseMeOutside]

sportsnet feed was hilariously awful, as the flames were getting dominated mike johnson is on there praising them for icing the puck and "staying in the game"

outshot 35-10 from the 2nd period on, but sportsnet just goes into full blown pandering mode, also tried to downplay the perry injury

awful crew

Guys, we forgot to trade for enough intangibles to offset Toews. Blackhawks win it in 3.

Toews is not the only one with intangibles on that team so Hawks in 2 is also not out of the question.

 

[Quack Shot]

He said it 2-3 times too. Bothered the hell out of me.

 

[Torch]

Congrats on the series win from a Flames fan. I'm proud of what our team accomplished this season, but clearly the Ducks are a next level team.

I hope you guys can keep it going. If we are going to lose, I would prefer that it be to the eventual Cup champions.

 

[Exit Dose]

I do think it's funny that in the lead up to this series that all the talk was about Hiller seeking revenge on his old team. Then he got yanked and was never heard from again.

 

[vavera4ka]

POWER OF BEER!!!
it can't be denied!



I HOPE Pears is ok. Those few days are golden to him. I mean, yeah, he came back, but he was pissed off and close to ODing on adrenalin. It might be enough to drop the mic like he did in that one game. Adrenaline alone won't carry him much further...
It looked like his knee bended the other way upon collision... they kept repeating and I couldn't watch it, begging my TV to stop the torture!

It was mainly from Canadian media and they were looking at every possible positive for Calgary and ussually exaggerating it by a fair margin

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

Did I hear Engblom, before the game started, claim that BB almost pulled Freddie in game 4 after the short sided softy? I guess that's the same kind of thinking that gives you Sami and Clayton vs the Flames top line over and over again.

 

[Lord Flashheart]

Sekac looks a bit down.

I heard on Sportsnet feed that he would have pulled him if he had allowed another one.

EDIT: How many times can Hartley say "like"? EDIT2: Some nice words from Hartley about Ducks.

I'd be down too if I was benched for someone who is playing 3 minutes a game.

 

[mighty Stanley Duck]

Im just hoping Perry's ok, man im so worried about him right now. Fluck!
He needs some rest, lets hope 1st game will be on Sunday.

haven't we been the underdog in all three series thus far though?

 

[LuGBuG]

I was hoping to see Hiller in the handshake line with some of the ducks on video. Any of that out there?

Only one I saw was this one




Was wondering who he was pointing at



My favorite moment

Lots of respect for Hartley. The guy really seems true blue.

Honestly, best fan experience I've ever had with an opposing fan case during the playoffs. Wish the Flames nothing but success in the future.

Those sports net broadcasters were awful. I didnt watch their broadcasts but hearing the goal calls was absolutely atrocious. It was just so bad, bland, and terrible. "Heres Silfverberg, he scouers." I dont even know what kind of accent the guy was using. His voice sounds worse than nails on a chalkboard. I think there were at least 5 times I heard him say "he scoures" but the way he says it sounds so terrible to my ears. If I had to listen to that for a series let alone a season I would probably watch every game on mute.
