East - Round One

[kenneycb]

Considering he was trying to fight Adbelkader (who's been running around pretty damn recklessly all series and would've gotten a match penalty because he had tape on his hand), "pussy" wouldn't be the adjective I'd use there. More like douche. Definitely douche.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Clearly, the Flyers are going out for Ed. 1-0 early, Raffl pots it.

 

[TSC]

I've got no love for Orpik, but man - it's hard to watch a guy get his bell rung that hard.

Hope he's ok.

 

[cshea]

Hard to watch Orpik get helped off here. Clearly out of it and concussed. They better not let him on the ice anytime soon.

 

[TSC]

Ghost has been showing his inexperience lately.

He's gifted but raw.

 

[Dummy Hoy]

Hope he's ok.

Yeah. I can't think of too many guys that deserve to take a dirty hit more than Brooks, but it's still tough to see.

 

[cshea]

This game could get real ugly.

Edit: 4-1 gam, Bellemare runs Orlov head first into the boards. Ugly, Orlov appears to have escaped relatively unscathed but that was brutal.

 

[teddykgb]

Oh man that hit was ugly. He easily could have been paralyzed. I think he expected him to stay upright and was going to ride him into the boards but my God that isn't how it worked out

 

[Greg29fan]

The Flyers are starting to Flyer

 

[cshea]

Stay classy here Philly.

 

[teddykgb]

Philly fans not dispelling any stereotypes right now

 

[54thMA]

The Flyers are starting to Flyer

The Flyers; gooning up hockey for close to 50 years, pure class all the way.

And their fans.......................pure cementheads..................and Washington goes up 5-1, adios Flyers..............

 

[cshea]

Flyers fans get a bench minor for throwing shit on the ice. 5-1 Caps and going on a 5-on-3.

 

[brienc]

Flyers fans are the lowest form of life imaginable, outside of the Flyers players.

 

[teddykgb]

Read just trying to break a wrist there?

 

[cshea]

I think that was Ovechkin too. If I'm Trotz, I get as many skill guys as possible off the ice.

 

[soxhop411]

Philly fans not dispelling any stereotypes right now

Nope. Though it's not shocking in the least.

 

[dcmissle]

God Bless America ... They are as dead as Kate Smith.

That started before the game when some dummy yelled out fuck the Pens during a moment of silence for Ed Snider. Not like he founded the team or anything.

And the bracelets thrown on the ice were some kind of tribute to him as well.

 

[LogansDad]

Holy shit, just saw the hit on Orlov. Glad I wasn't watching real-time, that one was scary.

Not excusing the stupidity, but my Flyers friend was pretty bullshit when Penguins fans yelled Flyers suck during Pittsburghs moment of silence for Snider.

Ed Snider would have been right there yelling with him.

 

[The Napkin]

One game for Bellemare

 

[kenneycb]

Probably one game for Philly fans as well.

 

[54thMA]

If that's a goal, I give up

 

[johnmd20]

The Rangers Penguins game has been awesome.

 

[TSC]

The Rangers Penguins game has been awesome.

Tampa/Detroit as well.

I love playoff hockey. I hate that the Bruins aren't in it.

 

[TSC]

Oh Drouin.

What a pass.

 

[The Napkin]

what a pass by Drouin.

 

[cshea]

Bob Cole on the call for the Wings/Bolts game! Right on!

Palat, from Drouin just gave the Bolts the lead with 2:30 left.

 

[hitatater]

Amazing surgical-precision passing by TB on the power play to take a 3-2 lead! Wow.

 

[The Napkin]

Every time I hear Bob Cole's voice I think of "Everything is happening!" It's Pavlovian at this point.

 

[The Napkin]

Just fantastic patience to get the goalie and defender to commit to the shot. And then boom.

 

[LogansDad]

I really do enjoy watching the Red Wings lose.

That game winning goal was a thing of beauty.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

I wonder what Steve Yzerman thinks of Drouin these days.

 

[TSC]

Not a good scene in Philly. Laughton stretchered off with the neck stabilizer after going into the boards weird.

 

[Dummy Hoy]

That's a goal all the way, no?

Edit: I'm watching with no sound. And I'm high. What was the rule that made that no goal?

 

[The Napkin]

Not a good scene in Philly. Laughton stretchered off with the neck stabilizer after going into the boards weird.

Tom Gulitti ‏@TomGulittiNHL 46m46 minutes ago Philadelphia, PA
Gudas said he doesn't know details, but was told Laughton is going to be Ok
Flyers say Laughton will stay overnight at hospital for precautionary reasons, but all tests were negative.

 

[cshea]

Nice rebound, Hank.

 

[brienc]

Absolute domination by Pittsburgh. If Murray is the real deal, it's really hard to imagine them losing.

 

[cshea]

Another entertaining Bolts/Wings game going on here.

Meanwhile, at MSG Hank's been pulled. 4-0 Pens.

 

[Jordu]

Bishop has been sharp.

 

[The Napkin]

Thanks for playing Detroit. Enjoy your retirement Datsyuk.

 

[cshea]

Give the puck up you idiots

 

[The Napkin]

Then again....

 

[Jordu]

What an entertaining game.

 

[cshea]

Awful decision to shoot there by Zetterberg.

 

[LogansDad]

My unexplainable hatred for Detroit makes watching them be the first team out extra special. Especially since I really like Tampa.

 

[cshea]

Stick salute to Pavel Datsyuk if this indeed was his final NHL game. Amazing hockey player.

Agreed, I will miss watching him play.
