Western Conference Final

[LogansDad]

Incredible game.  Just incredible. 
 
Though I agree that I'd like to see less of the refs.

 

[cshea]

Anze Kopitar is a stud. 

 

[cshea]

I agree, but he was screened by two guys and that was a bullet by Sharp. 

 

[BoSoxFink]

Anze Kopitar is a stud. 

I fucking love that guy. What a great player

 

[FelixMantilla]

Muzzin has had a horrible night.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Anze Kopitar is a stud. 

I haven't seen much of him before these playoffs, but he's really impressive

 

[LogansDad]

Too many penalties, but so much action.  I'd like to see a nice clean third period.

 

[Wave em in Wendall]

More 5-5 hockey please. 2 calls against the Kings - the boarding call on Mitchell and the last hold were weak for a game 7.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Too much home cooking from the refs.

 

[soxhop411]

When was the last time NBC was this pissed at the refing? 

 

[soxhop411]

CBC also thinks this has been horrible reffing for a game seven… Im shocked

 

[soxhop411]

 
 
Hrudey: I certainly didn't like the officiating, mainly towards the LA Kings. That's a penalty to Mike Richards? ok well then you better at least call it evenly. Then Willie Mitchell, that's not a penalty in my mind. There's Toews who pushes over Muzzin. Call that if your going to call those others. And then Doughty on of all guys Andrew Shaw? And then this one holding on Lewis. To me the Kings fought through a lot."

 

[FelixMantilla]

I am going to out on a limb and predict zero penalties in the third period.  :whistling: 

 

[cshea]

Thought Toffoli should've gone for the full wrap around instead of trying to stuff it short side on that recent rush. 
 
Great pace right now. 

 

[Ed Hillel]

Awesome.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Gaborik, wow

 

[LogansDad]

WHOOO!!!!  I love tie games!!!

 

[cshea]

Awesome. 

 

[Ed Hillel]

Crawford put it in his own net.

 

[ifmanis5]

Helleva game.

 

[Red Right Ankle]

Wow. Behind the back shot.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Can't believe Carter didn't go for a trip there, Pearson almost capitalized too

 

[Ed Hillel]

LOL epic dive behind the net there. Who was that?
 
Embellishment, I should say. It was a trip.

 

[LogansDad]

Oh my god, what a save

 

[cshea]

Big stop by Crawford on Pearson there.
 
It usually doesn't end well when you blow 3 leads in one game. 

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

Gaborik may be one of the most under-appreciated scorers in NHL history.

 

[Red Right Ankle]

And tied. 
 
I vote we kick the Rangers out and just have these teams continue on and  play a 15 game series for the Stanley Cup.  

Agreed. In fact, let's just have them play a game every day for the rest of the summer.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Can't believe Carter didn't go for a trip there, Pearson almost capitalized too

 
See post # 166.  :rolling:

 

[BoSoxFink]

What a pickup Gaborik was for the Kings, wow

 

[cshea]

Drew Doughty is broken. 

 

[Ed Hillel]

Shipping up to Boston?

 

[Red Right Ankle]

Every Kings' game I remember that Hamilton's comp coming out of the draft was Doughty and I get a little giddy.

 

[Red Right Ankle]

And that's despite the bad decision on that last sequence.

 

[cshea]

Quick looks real tentative. Good stops there but he seemed to be fighting it. 

 

[Ed Hillel]

Quick...

 

[Ed Hillel]

Cross thread

 

[Ed Hillel]

Quick can't catch.

 

[twibnotes]

This is so awesome

 

[LogansDad]

This is special.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Wow, imagine if Brown had put that in.

 

[BoSoxFink]

That was so offsides by the Blackhawks

 

[PedroSpecialK]

QUICK

 

[Ed Hillel]

Holllyyyy shit.

 

[Boston Brawler]

This game is awesome.

 

[cshea]

I'm nervous and I don't care who wins. Tremendous hockey. 

 

[Ed Hillel]

That was so offsides by the Blackhawks

 
Wasn't even close. That would have been some controversy.

 

[FelixMantilla]

So which goalie cracks first?

 

[MoGator71]

This is great. Just give the Cup to the winner, fuck the Rangers.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

Game 7 overtime NHL playoffs giddy up
 
Duncan Keith 30 TOI and counting

 

[LogansDad]

This is unreal. 
 
Also, it took two periods, but good on the refs for putting the whistles away.  That was an incredible 20 minutes of hockey.
