National Hockey League 2012-13

[Thora]

Like Drea and BoMac said, I'll definitely be watching too. I haven't had time in the past week and a half to see any games, but now that I'm home and life is normal again, I'll be watching for sure. Yeah, my team's out, but playoffs hockey is awesome. I don't really care who's playing or who wins at this point, but maybe I'll change my mind...

Pulling for an LA / NYR series right here.

Well,it only took 48 hours for Hunter to heading back to the London Knights.

Ovi must have open a bottle of vodka with that news.

 

[BoMac]

The funniest comment I saw on Hunter's departure was this:

I believe Hunter was told if he wanted to come back, he'd have to buy another suit. He chose to pass.

Is anybody on here an actual fan of the 4 teams left at this point? I'm pulling for either LA or Phoenix simply because neither has won a cup before...

I'm not an actual fan of the final four teams, but I'll be pulling for the Devils because my friend is a big fan.

I'm pulling for the Rangers because I want the Cup to come to Thunder Bay, and each time one of the Staal brothers has won it, they have had a public meet and greet.

 

[PhilsFan]

I'm pulling for Jersey to continue the tradition of the Flyers losing to the eventual Cup champions.

 

[Hewson]

I guess I'm pulling for the Kings as Jonathan Quick went to the old alma mater.

 

[bono_man2002]

LA's away record for this run (so far) has been amazing.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Peef, how are Philly fans taking the sucess LA seems to be having with Richards and Carter?

Don't forget Ron Hextall, and assistant coach John Stevens.

 

[PhilsFan]

Fifty-fifty, no in between: either they are pulling for Richie and Carter or they're terrified of them immediately winning upon leaving Philly and are desperate to see them lose.

 

[MrPryck2U]

New Jersey evens things up at 2 a piece.

 

[bono_man2002]

Fonsie won't be impressed.

 

[BoMac]

Dan sure knows how to party on the weekends. That's him on the left with Claude Giroux, who recently had surgery on both wrists and is still the NHL playoff points leader, despite having been eliminated two weeks ago and played one less game due to suspension.

 

[PhilsFan]

So that's who signed his name and wrote "28" next to it on my forearm this weekend. Really explains the gap in my memory for those few hours Saturday night.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Drinking fucking Smirnoff and Coors Light. Really?

 

[bono_man2002]

Devils too good, sounded like a crazy game 5.

 

[MrPryck2U]

The Rangers put up a good fight, but NJ was just a little bit better.

 

[PhilsFan]

He really is a bro, isn't he?

 

[LuckyNumber7]

If he was wearing a collar, it'd be popped. If he could fist bump, he'd fist bump.

 

[bono_man2002]

Definitley not the cup final everyone was expecting at the start of the playoffs, nethertheless I'm excited to see what happens. I'm tipping the Kings to win in 6, just because of how solid they've played on the road, and Quick has been a freak.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

I'm proud to say the Panthers took the ECF winners all the way to 2OT in game 7 and arguably were just as good as the Devils.

That being said, go fucking Kings.

 

[BoMac]

Not exactly the dream final the NHL was hoping for.

I'm pulling for the Kings, too.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Not exactly a dream final but it's still a breath of fresh air.

 

[speedracer]

LA/SoCal is really an underappreciated hockey market (and yes, this is probably in large part due to the Mighty Ducks). Inline/roller hockey leagues are especially popular there.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Well I don't think BoMac made that comment because of LA. The 'dream final' would've probably been LA-New York. It's the Devils aspect that kinda killed it.

Would've loved to see a Yotes-Panthers 3-3 matchup. Nobody else would've, but how about that eh?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Devils and Kings in the final.... Woop-ti-di-doo

 

[BoMac]

At least you've got the Marlies.
