thinking the Kings are glad they didn't trade Dustin Brown at the deadline as they were rumored to be considering...

looking like Dean Lombardi has saved his job..

PredsV82 · 04-16-2012, 12:19 AM

really hating it for Sully whats happening to the Pens..... but Crosby is a ginormous douchecanoe so seeing him get trolled is awesome..

Straight from President's trophy winner to being down 0-3 in the 1st round. Ouch.

Turns out being in a division with only one playoff team just may of inflated their stats.
Shocking, I know.

Doesn't hurt having one of the sisters out, either.

I had a feeling LA was going to be scary in the playoffs.

I won't lie. If I'm playing Philly next round, I'm drooling. I'm filling the blue ice with traffic and shooting from EVERY angle. Fluery is the living embodyment of suck but Bryz has not been much better.

Hartnell's{MOD EDIT} is reaching Samsonesque levels of awesomeness.

Gill was hurt during the Dallas game, The 19th marks 2 weeks. Imagine if you will, the Preds win the Detroit series without Gill and can give Gill 3 weeks of rest for his foot. I say, win this series without Gill and then use him in the next series with whoever. I know Nashville can win this series without Gill. I would rather get a healthy Gill.

No kidding. He's been a beast.

Part of me is kind of bummed that Vancouver is likely done. I really wanted another crack at them with this year's roster, should we advance.

On the other hand, I'm hoping one of the Blues or Coyotes win their series(preferably Yotes), just to guarantee we don't play the Kings in the next round, should we get there.

Yikes.

LA is putting on a clinic on how to shutdown one of the best offense team in the league. Preds take note.

I'm more afraid of STL than LA/VAN/PHX/CHI.

Though LA is up 3-0, I haven't been that impressed with their play that much. Quick has been a beast, but aside from that, they've gotten timely goals and bailed out by their goalie. I think we match up well with them.

token grinder · 04-16-2012, 01:21 PM

perfect world SJ, us Chi and LA advance. let STL and LA have a bloodbath and us exorcise demon #2 in Chicago.

Find and watch the "Hitler is Disgusted with the Pens" video. It's awesome.

To our good, new pals in Ottawa....Good Luck Sens!!!

Legionnaire11 · 04-16-2012, 07:43 PM

yeah, other than my Flyers, i'm pulling for the Sens in the east after the support their HF fans put behind the Preds the last few seasons!

worstfaceoffmanever · 04-16-2012, 07:56 PM

At work, we have a Preds fan (me), a Blackhawks fan, a Stars fan (I think), and an Oilers fan, and there is one thing we can all agree on: we all love watching Vancouver lose.

anyone missing out on the playoff photoshop thread is missing out on life a little bit. The gifs in that thread are great.

Indeed!

Ping-pong ones have already started.

Here's an article from Yahoo about diving in the playoffs. The fake ad for the "slip-n-dive" is epic.

Those refs better not see another game anytime soon. How they all could miss that call with all of the suspensions/hits that have happened during the playoffs is beyond ridiculous

I CANNOT wait for the Flyers game tonight!
