Yeah, there would've been at least as much whining back then as there is now. Human nature, I suppose. It's just kind of tiresome when it fills up a thread. Yes, there are occasional examples of officiating so bad that it's beyond the pale (Joe Mauer's "foul" ball in the Yankees/Twins ALDS is the most recent that comes to mind), but most of it falls under the **** happens category.

Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread
Wow. Are you guys serious? 2.5 games into a series usually tells you that they are waist deep in it, which means nothing mind-blowing is going to change. It is what it is right now.
Rinne is hot and their D is playing insane. Trotz scheme of non-stop forechecking is working and no there is no magical line change Q can put out there that will all of a sudden make the Hawks start lighting the lamp like crazy. They haven't won the one-on-one battles ALL SERIES. Why would that change now??
Preds in 6.
Things change fast. Get a grip.Originally posted by Thrash13Dr. Jones was right in stating that.

Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread
Read the first two words in your own post....and please don't tell me to get a grip. I'm not some 10 year old kid who just started to watch playoff hockey for the first time. Thanks and have a nice night.Comment

Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread
Let me simplify this:
I never once thought the Hawks were in trouble against the Canucks.
After 9 periods played against Vancouver, in my opinion, it was a toss up.
After 9 periods this year, the Preds have outplayed them in 8 of those 9 periods. It is NOT a toss up here, even though they both can finish in the same amount of games. The Hawks won in 6 last year, but I just don't see that happening this year.Comment

^ Okay, but I think you're underestimating Chicago's firepower. If Toews, Hossa and Sharp can get it going, this is going to be a different series. Also, Brian Campbell may be coming back at some point, even as early as next game.Comment

Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread
Look, I hope I'm wrong and you all are right. I just don't think so right now. I don't see the Hawks flipping that switch against this team. Same can be said for the other (2) vs. (7) series.Last edited by Anavar; 04-20-2010, 11:44 PM.Comment

Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread
We're bound for an OT that lasts longer than 5-10 minutes. Could this be it?
Also, Marleau/Galiardi FTW.Originally posted by bradtxmaleI like 6 inches. Its not too thin and not too thick. You get the support your body needs.

The officiating needs to be better. If you don't feel that way than we will have to agree to disagree.Last edited by mgoblue678; 04-21-2010, 12:04 AM.My Teams

Nice shot by Pavelski.
I have to say I'm surprised San Jose bounced back after Game 3 and that Dan Boyle played so well after winning Game 3 for the Avs.Originally posted by bradtxmaleI like 6 inches. Its not too thin and not too thick. You get the support your body needs.

Joe P. Clowe and Seto, are the line! This first line of Joe, Heatley and Marleau are so depressing. I know they got some shots, but come on guys score! All that matters is the wins and points. Great win and coming back to 2-2. I like it!Comment
