NHL 2013 post season thread!

Overall, not an unfair statement. Perhaps the primary difference between the two being that Chicago's offense is more lunch pail than "exclusive elite."



Well, the Bruins actually don't mind scoring more than two goals on occasion.

Thanks for the insight.

I think the winner of each game will be the first to score two goals.

Is it fair to say that the Hawks are the Pens with slightly less offensive firepower, but better overall defense?

IMO, the Pens were grossly overrated this year. Due to the shortened season, their schedule saw them playing mostly in their own division, which was weak.

Their one great strength was their offensive firepower. But their goaltending was mediocre, at best, and their defense was absolutely pathetic. This is not a recipe for being a Stanley Cup contender.

The Bruins, on the other hand, have a deep talent pool and are going to be damn tough for the Hawks to beat. Their defense is especially suited to counter the Hawks' offense. If the Hawks play in the finals like they did against the Kings, the Bruins will walk all over them.

I think they'll step up, though, and this has the potential to be a truly great hockey series.

It looks like the Rangers and Canucks are going to trade coaches, eh?

Hockey is making you a bit Canadian, eh?

That and living so close to Canada the last 30+ years. You Canuckleheads are wearing off on me. I love you all, you enable my wine gum addiction.

That word just sounds very, very filthy.

BTW, did anyone see the report that D. Byfuglien weighed 302 pounds at seasons end?

YES LOL. Big fatty. I love Big Buff but man, that guy needs to get his **** together. With the talent and agility that guy has combined with his size, can you imagine how good he would be if he actually worked out and trained hard?

Golly, I should lace up the skates again then. I'm lighter than that and getting in better shape! Oh, wait. I'm 53 now. Darn. :scowl:

Do you also have a 103 mph slap shot?

I don't think that size has anything to do with the speed of a slap shot. Theo Fleury was like what 5 feet 10 inches tall and 170 and had a one hundred and twelve mile per hour slapshot.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

I didn't say it did, but Buff has a 103 mph slap shot

Man, I would love for him to pick a fight with Chara so he could be eliminated from this earth. What a Fu*kin' tool.
