NHL 2006 Playoffs thread...

It was some other guy who I don't know of. If my PS2 would load NHL 98, I'd know, but it won't load for some reason.

 

99 was some guy named Darryl Reaugh.

That wasn't interference. Briere gets a weird winner. Game four Thursday.

 

Baron can attest for this, I've been saying since 2003 when he was traded from Phoenix, that Briere should captain Team Canada in 2010.

And I have to give props to everyone in this series not named Nummenien, Drury, Recchi or Brind'Amour. By which I mean, of all the younger players in this series, no one has shown any awe and played one game at a time. Ward and Miller are underlined.

Jay McKee hasn't and may not make the flight to NC to play in tomorrow's game.

Our Sabres beat reporter found out that he was not with the team Wednesday night in Carolina. Sabres team spokesman Mike Gilbert said he is "sick, but it is possible that he can come join the team for game 7."

He had better be pretty sick if he can't play in the biggest game of his life and near the biggest in team history.

I'll second biggest in team history. This will get them a date with the Oilers. Not the Broad Street Bullies. I'd be so daring as to say the 99 Stars > 06 Oilers. I am, though, a Tony Hrkac mark.

But when they played the Stars, the Stars were so good that the Sabres supposedly had little chance.

 

If they win tomorrow, it is their best chance to win it all.

I'll say 3-1 Sabres, and hope that Miller plays an outstanding game, as I think it's the only chance they have now with their depleted defense. :(

 

I don't know if the Stars were that good in '99, but the Sabres were hardly a great team. The only reason they were close to making the playoffs was another ridiculous season from Hasek, and the PP luckily got hot in the Eastern playoffs.

I find it hard to believe that the Hurricanes would play as bad as they did Tuesday two games in a row, it just doesn't happen. I think the home crowd will give them enough of a boost to send them to the Stanley Cup Finals.

Staph infection. That'd be serious enough for me.

Fast paced first period, Carolina got the goal on a lucky two deflection shot from the point.

 

Both goalies look good so far.

It's supposedly not a staph infection. Just a "virus" he got from the wound on his leg.

 

Sabres need some lucky goals.

I wanted to post earlier that even though I thought the Canes would win 2-1, a part of me thought that Buffalo would overcome and win. I forgot all about it.

 

I know that none of you will believe me now.

What a turn.

 

Janek's goal was a result of a good screen. Hecht's goal was pure luck; Wesley played him well, but Ward was out of position.

 

2-1 Sabres.

 

What a game.

That didn't look like it went in.

 

Best game of the playoffs so far.

 

Brind'Amour is fast becoming the best player in these playoffs, regardless of whether or not they win.

I'm a fan of the shooting over glass penalty, but it has decided too many games. When players stop doing it, the penalty will be much rarer.

 

This powerplay is Buffalo's season.

It'll be interesting to see if Carolina's great forwards can get through on Edmonton's great defense.
