Go Wings! And Ducks! And Sens! And Sabres! The intensity of play is the reason the Hockey Gods created the playoffs.
Don't want them to end soon, I love watching hockey every night, but I don't know how long I can stay up til early morning hours watching. I may lose my job before it's all done...lol!

okay, nasty goal. Crosscheck and jump into the guy's head yet no penalty. Linesman or Ref should have blown whistle.

No doubt everyone relaxed a bit on the Canuck side expecting the 'obvious' whistle. it doesnt come, a bulletlike shot comes instead.

Now, I have no prob iwth Anaheim winning the game. they are the better allround team

however, i dislike messy wins. Wins that occur due to Ref/ linesman not doing their UNbiased job.

I'm kinda with you on the goal, Sunshyne4u...there maybe should've been a call on the hit, but Luongo knows better than to "expect" a call. I think he was tired and made a mental error. He's an amazing goalie (56 saves in this game!) and no doubt helped the 'Nucks stay in the series.
Now, onto Detroit and Buffalo! Oh yeah, and Jersey, where the Sens are hopefully gonna kick some Brodeur butt...lol
After the game, I watched the last few minutes of the NBA game, Golden State vs. Dallas, and found it interesting that there were no team handshakes at the end. People think hockey is so violent, but at the end of a series they come together at center ice and congratulate each other. No matter how much blood was spilled, they leave it on the ice. imho, real sportsman.

Luongo lost that game for them. Is he a goalie or a ref? Don't turn your head away from play, toward the ref and raise your arm to signal a penalty. Split second mistake that signals the beginning of golf season. Bonehead move.

Luongo was the only reason they were still there in 2OT. He's the only reason we only lost 2-1, instead of 8-1. I agree it was boneheaded of him to "expect" a call on that play, but when he's the only guy who actually showed up to play a do-or-die game, you can't say he's the reason they lost. 40 saves in 40 minutes??? C'mon. That man deserves Naslund's paycheque, too.

Of course, just my opinion. What do I know, I'm a Leafs fan, lol.

Buffalo! Another OT. Another game where the shots were double for the winner. So far in the series, the home team has won.
On to Detroit tomorrow. They gotta play like they know how; they gotta shut down thornton; they gotta win!
Now for Ottawa to finish it up. Hope Emery doesn't wake up tomorrow with aches and pains from the accident today. They need him in net.

Bluejax I think I saw a quick clip of him on the news signing autographs in front of his Hummer at the accident scene. I think the other guy in the little blue car will be the one with the aches and pains.

Bonehead move.


inexperience. Luongo has never played playoffs and frankly was exhausted. poor guy when you know most people blame him. Indeed the Canuckleheads would ahve never made it this far without him.

Now I'm cheering on the Other Canadian Teams.

I've never cared for the Canucks, so I have trouble giving them a break. Sure, he and Linden are the only ones who seem to do much, but it was still a stupid move. He turned his head toward the ref and raised his arm. What was he thinking? Silly man.

Go WINGS!!!! Go Bertuzzi!! <swoon>

I've been watching hockey for over 25 years and have seen MORE than one goalie do that. Calling off side or penalties. He's not the only one.

Your Redwings have made MORE than a few boneheaded moves in the years I've watched hockey.

I guess you are right, you've never cared for the Canucks so you WILL see the mistakes made by them and NOT the mistakes by the Red Wings.

Frankly, Karen is right. What he did was keep the Canucks in the playoffs. I'm on board for the Sabres!!!

Where in my post did I imply that Luongo's mistake was an isolated incident? I just stated it was a stupid move.

I'm not a hard core fan of any team, not even the Wings, so to take a shot at the Wings doesn't hurt me at all. At least the Wings are still in the playoffs.

I will ABSOLUTELY agree that Luongo is the the only reason the Canucks got as far as they did, but he could have gotten them FURTHER, had he not made such a sloppy mistake. I guess he's gotta become a sloppy Canuck sometime.

Love the Sabres purely for Lindy Ruff. LOVED that he sent out a line of goons a couple of months ago, and it doesn't even bother me that he got fined for it. The message was clear, and I loved the message.

I'm teasing ya Eeyore but I'll suggest that even you too would be capable of making a mistake after being on the job under extreme stress for HOURS.

Yeah, he 'assumed' that a penalty was coming but His reaction time was amazing. he did 'just about' stop that bullet of a shot (at least in the video I saw during the game)

I'm not a hardcore fan. I used to be a Canucks fan back in the Cliff Ronning, Trevor linden, Gino Oljeck, Pavel Bury years.

This season showed that the Canucks still havent changed as a team. The people change but the philosophy of basically falling apart during playoffs still exists.

The goalie gave them their shot, the goalie took away their chance.

I'm just glad Luongo went out this way. everyone here surely saw the obvious "crashing' of the goalie that Anaheim did.

The ref didnt even call most of them.

I would rather see the Canucks lose this way then have Luongo finally injured (probably neck because those guys kept elbowing him on the top of the head) No way that the second goalie would allow them to proceed thru this series.

so.....GO senators!!!

Why can't I have any money on this like I usually do during March Madness? I picked 'em all. Yes, maybe not that hard to do, but I rarely get 'em all right, and when I finally do, I don't win anything! lol
So, since I'm 100% so far in my picks, here's a little something for all y'all who bet on these things...Ducks over Wings and Buffalo over Ottawa, with Anaheim winning Lord Stanley's Cup.
Blue, you ask, how do you come by your superior knowledge of all things hockey?
Purely by players (thornton, jagr, brodeur) I just can't like (no matter how skillful) and who they play for...roflmao Scientific, eh?

I hope you're right Blue, since my Sabres really NEED TO WIN in Ottawa! I can't believe they lost both games in Buffalo. BTW... I have seriously only gotten into this THIS year, because of my friends here and in a chat who loved hockey! Now I HAVE to see our Sabres through because I CARE ABOUT IT!!! LOL Once they're out.... I guess I don't know enough about the other teams to care about them, but I'll probably root for the W. Conference instead of the E. since I won't want Ottawa to win! LOL

Where are my Sabres? I figured this to be a match-up of physical vs. speed, but the Sens are totally shutting them down. In game 2, I thought the Sabres had adjusted their game to neutralize Ottawa, but alas. Words can't express how shocked I was that they lost both home games!
They've gotta dig deep.
Unbelievable that Anaheim beat the Wings in the Joe. lol Sorry, Yoda. Looked like Anaheim was really frustrating Wings. I love Lang, but he was so ticked off at one point, that he reminded me of my nephew when he doesn't get his way.
Tomorrow night in the OC. Anaheim, second OT.
Off to go find stats as to how many times a team came back from a 3-0 deficit. LET'S GO SABRES!!!

I dont' think you'll find any stats on a team coming back from a 3-0 series, Bluejax. I think I remember hearing last season that no team has ever won four in a row (by that, I mean Game 4, 5, 6 and 7) in a playoff series.

Sorry about your Sabres. I am impressed with the Sens. I didn't think they'd make it. Go SENS!!

:-( We Sabres fans are getting pretty down at this point. They did say at the last game that NO TEAM has EVER come back after a 3 game deficit. Do we all get the same announcers for these games? I know our local announcers are pretty lop-sided toward Buffalo, but it sure seemed like the Sabres could do nothing right according to the announcers last night. Holding the Sens to one goal isn't that bad...eh? LOL But VERY BAD since they lost 2 at home. I hate to say it, but we're getting resigned to thinking it's going to be a blow-out for the Sens and our Sabres are coming home......

PS - I do say the Sabres have been robbed of a couple of goals that SHOULD HAVE counted in recent games. Bah! LOL

I could be mistaken, but I swore I heard Bill Clement (Versus) say that it's happened twice. The last time was in 1975. I'm sorry, I don't remember what team it was.

Go Wings!

Tiger, I think it was either '32 or '42, cause I remember thinking, okay, about every 35 years. lol, so there's still a chance, albeit a slim one.
Wow, how about those Wings tonight? Dozed off, and all of a sudden it's 4-0. What was the Niedermayer play that may cause a suspension?

4-0 Wings after 2. Someone needs to step up and lay a world of hurt on Pronger. Cannot stand that guy.

Go Wings

Ok, I stand corrected. This link says in the 2nd paragraph that only two teams have ever come back from a 3-0 deficit. Doesn't say who, though, or when.

<keeps looking... this might take a while.>
