Western Conference Quarterfinals Gamethread
- Thread starter TFP
- Start date
Intriguing series here. Dallas is a very young team with some great high-end talent. On the other side, Boudreau teams have traditionally been regular season juggernauts that have flamed out early on in the playoffs. Bruce has never won a second round series. Also, despite being the 1-seed out West, most of the advanced metrics don't particularly like the Ducks. They're very middle of the road by the possession stats, so we'll see what happens to them.
Good start for the Ducks though, already up 2-0.

I love seeing any team with Lindy Ruff, Erik Cole, and Antoine Roussel lose.
Pure domination by Anaheim

Who's the color guy for this game? He blamed Lehtonen for a goal that went off the leg of the Anaheim dude.
I believe it's Butch Goring.
Also, that was the strangest commercial break interview with Ruff that I've ever seen. The reporter might as well have muttered "...you're full of shit, Lindy."

Blues up 1-0 on a goal by Adam Cracknell. Scottrade Center is loud for the first time in its history.
I really enjoy watching Ryan Miller lose. I can't wait to hear his douchy post game comments. What a twat.
Miller looked horrible on the Kane goal. He didn't react whatsoever to the shot.
.903 save percentage in St. Louis for Miller. Fleury-esque .571 in that period.

Meanwhile, Halak had a .930 save percentage with the Capitals.cshea said:

What a save by Crawford!

Wow. I'd never heard that before. He's turned into a real good player, probably could have used him.
I've heard that story as well. From a couple different people who I trust. I'm positive that's how it went down.sachmoney said:

Big flurry by Chicago right now.
Edit: No idea how St. Louis didn't score on that scramble in front. And now Sobotka with the over-the-glass penalty. The really need to rip this rule up.

Blues kill off the delay of game penalty.
Elsewhere, San Jose is up 3-0 in the first. That's a bit of a stunner.
