Around the NHL Part XIV Van-Bos. Game 7 Edition (D.Sedin Guarantees win)

[trilobyte]

That was one very subtle cross check by Krejci. Okay for them to call it, but try calling Torres next time he does it 5 times as hard.
Consistency is all I ask for, or at least something close.

[New York RKY]

LOL @ the Kesler fail.

[trilobyte]

Burrows got caught. Beauty

[BlueshirtBlitz]

So have they decided to protect Thomas because of the style he plays? That's ********. If Hank was out of the crease and was hit like Thomas has been, they wouldn't call anything.

[Brian Boyle]

Why so many penalties? They're ruining the game.

[nyr2k2]

And dowwwwn goes Sedin!

LOL, I like the Sedins, but jesus do they ever flop.

[Clowe Knows Best]

This is a Stanley Cup Finals game? Officiating is absolutely awful in this game. Calling a million little penalties will slow the game down and ruin the flow, thus getting the casual fan watching on NBC to change the channel. Let them play!

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Holy **** what a dive.

Seriously, what the **** is this.

If the Canucks win the Cup they'll win it because they're a bunch of diving ******s.

[trilobyte]

I'm quite serious about H. Sedin's diving.

Does anybody know if those can be called when play is stopped? I hate diving. I don't want to see more penalties, but he has a good half dozen of those this playoffs.

[Swedish Fish]

Good thing I DVRd the game, anytime I need a laugh ill watch that dive. That was embarrassing.

Anyone else think that Lucic is a horrid skater and really looks as if he has a piano on his back when he skates

I remember seeing on NHLN he had/has some kind of disease that messes/messed up his back. It's why he always looks hunched over.

[nyr2k2]

The penalties have been excessive, but a lot of them are legit calls. Even in the playoffs. Both teams look a little sloppy.

We all are. H.Sedin isn't the only one though, the entire Canucks team does it. They're a disgrace.

[nyr2k2]

Lucic has something called Scheuermann's disease, affecting the vertebrae.

That's it, I couldn't remember the name. I thought it was "Morris'" disease for some reason.

I just don't see it though. They are too predictable without the threat of his shot.

They've only scored 5 PP goals in the playoff with Chara shooting, the problem is Kaberle never shoots so teams don't have to defend him. I think the Bruins PP has gotten worse since they picked up Kaberle at the deadline.

[t3hg00se]

Tim Thomas has been TREMENDOUS.

Think you mean Chara and not Kaberle?

It absolutely has. Kaberle has been awful, I have no clue where he is going this off-season.

[NHRangerfan]

Can't believe Clod has given Recchi 11 minutes so far

[Pugs35]

Ference with just a pathetic shift on defense there. Gilroy-esque.

[nyr2k2]

If Laps shoots that puck anywhere other than into Thomas' crotch, Nucks are up.

no i meant what i said. instead of Chara in front, put Lucic, and have Chara back at the point with Seidenberg. Kaberle isn't threatening anymore, imo.
