This forum is for talking about non-music-related stuff that the DBT fanbase might be interested in. This is not the place for inside jokes and BS. Take that crap to some other board.

The West is a bloodbath. I think the Hawks get by the Blues in 6 or 7. They are catching the Blues at a perfect time as they stumble down the stretch. The following series against Colorado could definitely prove to be tougher.
If I had to take a flyer on the Stanley Cup Finals I would say inverse last year. Boston in 6 over the Hawks. But I wouldn't be surprised by anyone coming out of the West. I think this is Boston's year though regardless of who the play.

I think I'm with you here, although I do think the Blues are a tougher opponent than Colorado despite the regular season record. It all comes down to two factors for the Hawks in the playoffs; 1) Are Kane and Toews healthy and ready to play at 80% or above? 2) Do the Hawks play their game and skate as opposed to opponents drawing them out of their game in an effort to muscle them? If the answer to both is yes, the Hawks should win the West, if it's no to either or both you can't honestly say their chances are very good. Oh, and I agree on Boston although the NHL playoffs are the oddest in sports.

up 3-1 on the road and then pissing it away is a real bad way to start a series. Hoping the Jackets can pull out at least one at home, but this is a rough start
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

Yeah, that changed quick. I posted that when it was 2-1

Well that brought a tear to this Canadian girl's eyes...
As did Carey Price's goal tending last night. He let in 25% of the shots made on him. Sigh...
Exciting hockey on the ice though. If our guys can keep playing like that and Price can start playing, our play-off season may not as short as expected.
His facial expression is terrifying. He's basically the equine Chucky.

lol. This almost reminds of that quote by the Dos Equis guy at the end of that commercial.
Enjoyed watching the games last night. Fell asleep in the 3rd period of the Ducks/Stars. Woke up at 4am- lights still on, contacts still in, tv blaring some infomercial. I'm not in playoff shape.

Totally agree with you there, only you lasted longer than me. I only made it through the 1st period of the Ducks/Stars.
So disgusted at the Blackhawks today. All they have to do is play their game and they win both those games, instead they let St. Louis play the style they wanted. For shame Hawks, for shame.

Between giving St. Louis a power play at the end of regulation with a one goal lead, and his subsequent suspension, the Seabrook hit might have been the decisive moment of this series.
TC's right on with his analysis. The Blues basically had an entire period worth of power plays on Saturday.
