    Agreed. I was shocked Milbury sounded so...right.

    Not sure if anyone else posted already, but Abdelkader got 2 games for the hit.

    Pretty sure they out shot Chicago and carried play for good parts of the game. They deserved the win, can't blame them for trying to turtle once it got late and they had the lead I guess, even if it didn't work. Just gotta hold serve at home in Game 4 too and it becomes a best of 3. Not that...

    Overtime playoff hockey especially. I could understand if they gave Crosby a 2 for embellishing it a little too, although I wouldn't want a 4 on 4 just to do it in an overtime game either. In the regular season I have zero issues with that being a penalty, I do think it was a bit soft in OT of...

    Soft call to end such a great game. Nice goal to win the game though, sucks for the Isles, but I think you have a fight on your hands Grimm. Still expect Pitt to win in 6, but Isles will put up a fight at least.

    Not sure how they just let Sid get behind them like that, great pass though.

    Sid tries Ovechkin's old move chipping it to the middle, Nabby barely gets a piece of it, Isles go the other way and make it 2-0. This is nuts...reality has to come back at some point right?

    Sorry Grimm, but it's pure gold. Wasted a BIG chance to go up 2-0 there. Fans serenading Fleury already.

    The fact he left his feet pretty much guarantees he'll get a suspension in my mind...but I'm sort of with you on who knows anymore really.

    Had to run out to a party right after I got home from Caps game, can't believe the ~7pm games...didn't expect that from Toronto, or for the Ducks to be as dominant in Detroit.

    I felt like they let them play quite a bit, which was better than Game 1, just inconsistent, which is also bad. If they leave it like this for the rest of the series I'd be...better with that than Game 1's style of officiating. The rumor I heard (was at the game) was that Alzner's thing was...

    Isles pull it off. Wow. They played pretty well tonight too, we might have a decent series. Looks like Habs going to even up their series too.

    Halak. He did it to the Pens in the very next round that year when Pens were up 3-2 in the series as well.

    Yeah, I'd love to see this turn into a series. Isles are actually playing quite well tonight overall.

    4-3 all time in series against the Rangers...2-1 in the last 4 years. It's not totally out of left field.

    I think the result of the play was a major part of it. It shouldn't be, but it has been in the past and I think it was in this case too...which is bullshit.

    Yeah, this shit might be done in 4 unless getting back on home ice sparks something for the Isles. Fleury actually looks good too.

    If they focus only on the hit, and not the result, I think it ends up without any suspension. Often it seems like the result plays a big factor. That was a terrible pass. Yeah Lundqvist should have had our 3rd goal, but man that 2nd one Price gave up just seemed worse. Was so busy watching...

    This. There were some soft calls both ways in the Caps/Rags game tonight. Next game it'll be the knee jerk reaction the other way too and they won't call anything short of murder now.

    Wings almost blew that game, but get it done in the end. Just like a Boudreau team to have a monster comeback but blow it in the end. I did pick Ducks in 7.

    I actually don't think it ever crossed, I think it was stuck between his body and the post as it was just laying on his jersey/hip area that was locked against the post on the one camera angle Comcast had (local feed here). Impossible to really tell though due to lack of good angles. I wish...

    Sloppy...left waaay too many chances out there. I really think Hillen/Erskine/Oleksy as the back end of our D is going to get exposed by the Rags' forward depth at some point too. I'll take it though...if only Erskine would stop scoring own goals.

    It's nice that Ovechkin should have had 2 or 3 different assists on that PP, but he might as well just fire it himself if other guys are going to waste those chances...good lord. Every time Mike Green fires a shot directly into a defenders shins I want to murder him.

    Our PP's before the Ovechkin goal did look like shit. Look how that one worked out, just have Green blast one from the point and get some bodies in tight. Lundy falling apart, I thought we were in trouble after refs handed you guys the 5 on 3 giving Fehr an extra minor. We just took another...

    Elurin, Habs did kind fall off a bit towards end of the regular season. I still expect them to pull out that series, but it'll be a weird one.

    Yeah that TMM penalty was pretty bad. It wasn't even a guy getting caught near the bench too they were all on the rush.

    Of course we dominate almost the whole first, Rags get a bullshit PP then score after the icing right as PP ended.

    Don't sleep on the Rangers finish either, think they were like 10-3-1 or something in April? Something like that. Probably the most days off in a row either team has had since the season started. Could be a weird game.

    If you played a drinking game for every Holtbyism you'd be blacked out before the 1st was over. I wonder if the semi long layoff will hurt either team. Or both.

    Finally out series gets started tonight. I'm not sure what to expect because both us and the Rags are quite a bit different than we were last year. I don't expect wide open odd man rushes both ways all night, but I expect there to be a little more offense both ways than last year.
