assuming there is a game 5, of course

Sadly it looks as though there will be a fifth game.

Friggin' Staal...

Montreal owned that game for the first two and a half periods. There had so many opportunities but Ward came up huge for Carolina. Gerber's going be pissed but there is no way they will pull Ward now.

Oh well, we'll get them on Friday.

I am not a huge hockey fan, but I will be in Motreal this weekend and think it would be fun to attend a game. Do Canadiens playoff games typically sellout? (I'm assuming they do) What are the chances of getting 4 scalped tickets at a reasonable markup?

About the same as finding a French Canadian that wants to be part of Canada and does not think the rest of Canada owes them. Translation Slim

Phew that was close Oilers Rule

This reminds me:
After watching some CBC broadcasts on OLN of the playoffs, I'm now officially anti-Canada.
I had previously had a soft spot in my heart for Canadian teams since I thought those teams with big fanbases that truly love hockey deserved some victories. However, the blatant homerism of all things Canada by the announcers was worse than listening to Hawk and DJ do White Sox games in baseball. That is enough for me to say FU, Canadian beer sucks, and I'm glad a city like Tampa celebrated the cup.

Hey now... no reason to get all retarded here.

It's just a friggin' hockey game for Christ's sake.

Edit: And FWI.. . it's "and I'm glad a city like Tampa celebrated The Cup".


No apologies necessary. Just be more careful in the future.

Oh yeah....
How the hell did Pronger learn not to commit stupid penalties in the playoffs?

Sincerely, a disgruntled Blues fan

Must be drunk after 1 Canadian Beer. By the way ever wtach the Olympics on NBC? A little patriotic too Though some regional broadcasts are a litle bias.

Trust me I have not counted my chickens till the Oilers win 2 more. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Just terrible to keep making penalties like that
