NHL Playoffs Thread: The Other Games *5/7/2010
And just like any B-movie thriller, the evil nemesis appears dead only to spring to life suddenly and deliver a stinging blow. A very agitated Megashark has now dragged the stubborn half dead Giant Octopus back to the Shark Tank where it plans to destroy any chance of another sequel in this series. But again, we must wait and watch as the Flyers and their fans hope to silence Beantown's shouts of 'sweeeeep' while the Nucks try to win at home to knot their series at 2-2 (please do).

Well, I guess I’ll pull for Philly and Vancouver.
And Worcester and Stockton, of course!
This is where we hold them! This is where we fight! This is where they die! Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time.
Would it be better if Boston was rested before likely facing Pittsburgh?
Food for thought.

Neither of these teams is beating Pitt. I just would rather Boston fans had less to cheer about.

I agree with that statement
But Pittsburgh needs continuous challenges on the way to the finals for the West to have a prayer, because regardless of outcomes, the rest of the WCSFs and the WCFs are going to be absolute meat grinders.

Now home to check in. I see that Satan got the best of Waterboy again. B’s up 2-1 after 20min.
And whenever I see the name Wheeler I think of the movie ‘Return to Oz’ and those creepy…wheelers!

Philly has virtually no net presence
Rask can see everything. Too bad, it looks like the Flyers have some speed. Could work to their advantage on the rush if they can generate some rebounds.

I hope the Thunder can win tonight now that they’re home and playing in front of some of the very best fans in all of minor league hockey, otherwise it’s statistically curtains (0-3) on their 5th anniversary season. GO THUNDER! STOP THE STEELIES!
Also GO WOOOOO SHAAARKS! Back home and looking to go up 3-2 in the series. HUGE decisive game. They do not want to go back to Manchester facing elimination. The good guys currently trail 1-0 after 40min. C’mon boys!
(this B’s/Fly game is kind of boring)

Woo having to kill off another penalty
Monarchs now 0-5 on the PP. Woo 0-1.
Time ticking down in the 3rd, still 1-0 bad guys.
Oh hey, and as I was about to hit ‘post’ the Woo.Sharks will be going on the PP. Must TIE, now…please k thanks.

I’m still amused by how the B’s are finding the back of the net. They couldn’t score worth a shinola during the regular season, but have no problem lighting the lamp so far in these playoffs. Gotta love the ‘second season’ in Parityland.
Eh, maybe the Flyers can author their own late 3rd period 2-goal comeback?
Eek, Woo still trail 1-0. 5min left….

Wow…the refs just HANDED the Pens two goals because of two no-calls on blatant trips.
Of course, Halak didn’t look great on either goal, either.

Again, the blog's been updated
I’ll continue cheering for Boooosh and the Flyers. At this point, it’s a primarily selfish venture – I simply hope a big win for Philly will lure some of the “omg 0-3 comeback” chatter away from Sharks/Wings.
Also, now that the Sharks must play an extra game, I’d like for Vancouver to win so their series goes at least 6.
AAAAND it’s a big day for our affiliates (/working agreement). Woo has their back against the wall in enemy territory and must win in order to bring the series back home for a decisive Game 7! AAAAAND the THUNDER are looking to ride the wave of momentum from an epic 30T 1-0 victory as they once again face off against the Spuds in Game 4. I’LL BE AT THE ARENA TONIGHT!! Seats are cheap! Less than $9 to get in the door for ‘AA’ hockey National Conference Final brouhaha. :D

With Sturm out
I have nothing left to like on Boston, unless they put Thomas in goal and my Team USA love requires my allegiance.
Go Boosh! Go Carle! Boo Pronger!

Pronger scored. Bleh. 2-1 Flyers.
In AHL news:
Woo! Woo up 1-0!

Okay I’m now in Stockton, playing around on my lap top before heading into the Arena.
So, I see Man and Woo are still tied at 1-1 after 40min. Philly and Boston tied 3-3 midway through the third. Was the backboard goal really bad? Eek Boosh.
"Sorry guys, I’m not going to try and hit (Douglas) Murray anymore. It doesn’t work." - Steve Ott, Dallas Stars.
Yeah, it bounced off the boards and back to him, and he dropped down to pounce on it, missed it with his glove and it redirected off his leg and in. There was pressure by the Bruins at that point, but the Bruin there didn’t touch the puck, Boucher just failed to pounce on it.
Kinda ugly.

Nah, kinda different. Boucher was down in this case. He just missed smothering it, and it found its way through his pads/legs. So not as bad, but kinda bad.
