Giguere should win it, but ESPN seems to have Brodeur's cock firmly in their throat, so it wouldn't surprise me to see Marty take it.

Wow...and I thought the US was patriotic.

 

CBC, a CANADIAN channel, has the respect to show the US national anthem, while ABC, an AMERICAN channel, has a commercial break.

0-0 1INT

 

Both teams looked good. Ducks PK unit got more scoring chances than the Devils PP did.

Giguere and Brodeur look to be in their zones, we could be here all night.

Steve Thomas gets the winner less than a minute into OT

 

It's a series again, and Anaheim is on a fucking ROLL

Oh YES!

 

No doubt about Giguere for Conn Smythe now. Ottawa fans are feeling less bad about missing the Finals by the day.

Didn't they? Bill Clement must have said 6 times, "The Ducks have been great... but they haven't played the DEVILS."

 

This is definitely a new series. I was glad to see Rucchin take it to that asshole Madden. Man, that ending is why I love playoff hockey.

That's so funny. "Sure, they beat the Red Wings and Stars...two of the three best teams in hockey...swept the Wings, in fact...but these DEVILS are something else. Even if they can't score goals."

heh. Sadly, it's true. Melrose has been pissed since Ottawa took out his PICK the Flyers. He gave them basically NO CREDIT for even making it to a game 7. Most of his comments were very backhanded, like a few goals in the series got, "Well, Marty doesn't let in many like that, so Ottawa had better take what they can get with that. But it was a good shot." Melrose seems to love the Devils as much as he loves combing his mullet. Asshole.

 

They weren't too bad last night, they gave Giguere a lot of credit for stopping some of those shots, but they are in the Devil's camp.

Wow, and I thought we had it bad with Bob Cole and Harry Neale. If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a completely unobjective sports commentator. I don't mind getting excited when your team's doing well, but you can at least give credit to the other team if they play a good game. And if you're doing a national broadcast, you should have at least appear to have no biases whatsoever.

Just thought I'd point out that WhatifSports.com know has a Hockey section up. It's amazing seeing the amount of goals teh Oilers scored, 5 straight years of 400 or better. Their best being 446 in 83-84.

ESPN is in the Devils' camp because they cater to the east coast market.

 

Barry Melrose.......I don't have enough time to go through every insulting curse word I'd love to hurl at that man.

 

Oh but fuck ESPN though.....always have time for that.

Yeah, they cater to the ECM. They were banking on a Philadelphia/Toronto v. Detroit/Colorado/Dallas final, but all 5 of those teams were outplayed. They fucked themselves because nobody is familiar with Anaheim or Jersey because they rarely get ESPN time. I hope it changes next season. I'm tired of watching Detroit v. _____ and/or Colorado v. _______

Well, that was a shitty goal. 3-2 Devils on an own goal by Leclerc.
