So excited for this. I think it's a bit dumb for round two to be starting tonight while we are still playing round one. Seems a bit disrespectful to me.

I feel the same way. At least wait until Game 7 is done before starting R2. I realize that is awkward with the west coast start, but still...completely backwards to play a second round game before completing the first.

I've been pretty middle of the road all series for some reason. Even when up 2-0 I wasn't overly excited. I think I just have low expectations for the team. Not that I don't think they can win a round; I just don't expect enough consistency to go the full distance. Either way I will be watching and rooting for them.

Shelter the **** out of that third pairing, they were burned a lot last game.

Ribeiro/Neal - don't be idiots.

RyJo - be the #1C we know you can be.

Ekholm/Ellis - already have stepped up big time, carry it into Game 7.

Forsberg - continue doing Forsberg things.

Wilson - continue doing playoff Wilson things.

Bottom six - keep the hits going.

And of course - Pekka. Please be classic Pekka.

I don't think Pekka has to steal the game. Just needs to be good.

I think Johansen needs to get in the game because Neal feeds off him.

Someone needs to stop Preds Killer Kesler.

Ducks score first they win.

I give Anaheim a 60% chance to win.

Just a reminder, folks...

Tensions will be high on both sides tonight. Let's keep posts either here, or on the main board GDT. Please don't head to the Duck's GDT and post, even if it's good natured.

Thank you and Go Preds!!!

So who will skate in place of Bass tonight? I am hoping it is Sissons. Watson may get the call because of his size but I personally wouldn't put him out there.

Suck having to wait so long for puck drop but I am so pumped for this game. Only 8 more hours. :popcorn:

I don't think Neal and Johansen are just trying to show off with no look passes. Misdirection is a very popular, and effective, strategy. They have the talent to make it work. However, we have some guys without that particular talent who still try it, and they end up looking foolish. Those guys need to keep it simple.

Just ****ing win

"If this is to be our end, I would have us make such an end as to be worthy of remembrance."

(It's only weird if it doesn't work)

To continue on that tangent..

Go Preds!

quackers GDT is full of Game 7 failures and their jinx in game 7's

May the gods hear them and repeat.
They're 0 for their last 3 in Game 7s.
We're 0 for 0 in Game 7s.
The road teams are both 2-1 in the series.
Lavy is 4-1 coaching game 7s.
Boudreau is 1-6.

You all decide.

Lots of pressure on the Ducks so I think the Preds are in good position since they are the underdogs. Keep it close and let the weight of the moment cause the Ducks to choke.

Hockey gods be kind and may the bounces be with you boys.

Up at em Preds.

I see in your eyes - the same fear that would take the heart of me! A day may come when the courage of men fail, where we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship - BUT IT IS NOT THIS DAY. An hour of wolves and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! BUT IT IS NOT THIS DAY! This day we fight!

By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand - Men of the West!
