Does soccer count? What about throwbacks?

Soccer counts. Best jersey today, so no throwbacks.

So Chicago and San Jose in the western conference finals.
Hoping or a Pittsburgh/Boston east finals, but I wouldn't mind a Pitss/Philly series. Just hope the Habs don't move on.

And yes, the Blackhawks jerseys are indeed sick. I also like the Flyers jerseys.

Wow Luongo should be ashamed of himself after last night. Those were some terrible goals he gave up, but I guess the defense didn't help much.

I am hoping the Pens can pull it out. If they do, they will make it to the Cup finals. This series reminds me so much of the 1993 series when the Pens played the Islanders. I was at that game 7, and I am glad I don't have tickets for tonight's game.

I am pretty much a nervous wreck today, and I have to maybe get multiple root canals at the dentist in an hour.

Sharks Blackhawks should be fun.

Positive A · Post by **Positive A** » Wed May 12, 2010 11:33 am

Sharks/Hawks will be Great. And any combination of scenarios in the east will be great as well.

The playoffs this season have been really, really good. Tonight's games will be off the charts. Only wish Bos/Philly was game 7.

Luongo was ATROCIOUS @ home in this series. Don't really know what to say.

can't fucking wait. blackhawks are gonna be super tough. although goaltending will be their downfall, imo. hope the east series end tonight so game 1 will be friday.

3-0 so far with over half of the game left. Can't believe it.

I love watching Mike Richards play. Dude is becoming one of my favorite players in the league.

Also, in the series before this one, Dale Hunter gave quite the cheapshot to Pierre Turgeon taking the leading scorer of the Isles out of the Pens/Islanders series and they still managed to beat Pittsburgh out, despite them winning the cup the previous 2 years.

This was also the year the biggest atrocity in NHL history ever occured...

Habs are meant to win the cup. Have to be.

Well I am glad that the defense decided to show up for game 7 last night.

If I would have seen Gonchar last night in public I would have probably punched him in the face. Fucking terrible. Losing Hal Gill and Rob Scuderi really made that big of a difference. The Pens have to make some serious changes to the defensive core for next year.

The effort Gonchar gave on the Moen goal was

worthy

that gonchar effort was about the worst i think i've ever seen.

Fuck the Penguins, sit your asses down bitches!

Whoever wins the East is going to be a big underdog in the Stanley Cup, Sharks/BlackHawks are way better than the Bruins/Habs/Flyers.

Even before the horn at GM Place officially ended the Canucks' season Tuesday night, a dejected fan placed Roberto Luongo for sale on Craigslist:

גSulking, belligerent and grossly over-rated goaltender who canגt stop a beach ball, seeks new gig,ג reads the notice posted at 8:47 p.m., as Game 6 in the NHL playoff second-round series wound down to a painful end.

The גjob wantedג ad was posted with the headline גGoalie will play for pasta, hair gel and $7.5 million,ג and left no doubt about who this fan blamed for the Canucks' performance Tuesday.

גI promise to be the same self-absorbed bad team guy I have always been. Pay me my $7.5 M annual salary no matter how bad I play," it read.

גI will be golfing tomorrow and every day for quite some time.

גYou can still reach me on my hotline: Louie 1-555-SUCK.ג

Raphael De La Ghetto · Fri May 14, 2010 8:54 am

I think Luongo copied that ad from Jose Theodore.

Not much is greater than a friday night game 7. Should be great tonight with the Bruins and Flyers. I have no idea when the next round starts but I can't wait. I've only managed to watch like 3 Jays games so far this year because I'm not missing a playoff game.

Here's to Montreal handling the Flyers in the next round.
