NHL '14/'15 Thread

I think Chicago is in trouble. Their D is not deep and Anaheim is going to pound them all series. The 'Hawks locker room will look like a M*A*S*H unit by game 4.

Lightning in 6.

 

[feller469]

Rooting for the 'Ning,but think the Hawks win in 6.

Hey Feller! When I was driving through Carrollwood last winter I drove by a facility that had the Lightning logo all around it. Are you familiar with it? Wondering if it was some Bolts training facility or something.

 

[feller469]

No clue. I am 2 hours south of there. Not all that familiar with the Tampa area.

 

[Jack Davenport]

OK now it is a best of 5. Will be tough for the Bolts in Chicago. They need at least 1 in ChiTown.

 

[feller469]

Bolts are so tough to figure out. They are 7 -3 on road and 6- 6 at home in the playoffs.

 

[feller469]

Game 4 in just a little while. Tampa coming off a win in Chicago. As it appears Tampa has the momentum on its side, I will predict that Chicago wins tonight 6-2, chasing Bishop in the second.

 

[Jack Davenport]

Bolts win tonight and take the cup in 6

 

[feller469]

Well, Bishop doesn't play, both teams had chances. Hawks get one in the third. Game 5 is Saturday night. I don't think Stamkos has scored a goal in this series.

 

[Jack Davenport]

Well, I was wrong.

 

[Straight Shooter]

I'll hold my comments until after the Hawks win the Cup again....in 6

Bishop really fucked up on that one... Hedman had a play on the puck (and had no way of knowing that Bishop was coming out to play it) and had Sharp covered. Bishop had no business coming out like that. The commentators (who have a constant hard-on for so many undeserving players) always rave about his puck-handling skills, but that was poor decision-making. Bishop is not that great (numbers aside) and neither is Crawford (who is, in fact, an abysmal NHL goaltender).

P.S. Crawford clearly played the puck in the no-man's land and should've been called for a penalty, but I'm not complaining because who wants to see a FLORIDA team made up of flop artists (the goaltender included, which is just shameful) win the Cup?

 

[feller469]

No clue what Bishop was thinking.

 

[Jack Davenport]

Backs against the wall now would like to see it go 7 at least

 

[feller469]

Bolts have been great on the road this post-season. Would not be shocked to see them go to Chicago and win, but have a feeling this one is over.

 

[Straight Shooter]

So pumped for tomorrow. We're going to win it on home ice. Time to bring the cup back to Chitown where it belongs

 

[Jack Davenport]

Well, Tampa is my second home, but I am really a Hurricanes fan lol

 

[feller469]

I went to Game 3 of the Detroit-Canes final. Loved it when Brind'Amour got his Cup.

 

[Straight Shooter]

Well, Tampa is my second home, but I am really a Hurricanes fan lol

I feel sorry for you
