GDT: 2012 Wild-Less Playoff Discussion Thread

[rynryn]

i'm amused by that detroit goal.

[rynryn]

hahah omg was I way off about Detroit getting away with ****. this is ridiculous. they're trying though. Is Nash gonna cash in one of these days?

[vitogor]

I'm amused by the second Nashville goal

[rynryn]

i'm just surprised it isn't worse. 0-6 on the PP halfway through for Nashville.

ps: howard sucks, has always sucked. and yet "underrated" gets thrown around a lot.

[squidz*]

Nashville's getting too fancy on the PP. Detroit is giving them a lot of time and space, and Nashville looks like they've expected a lot more pressure.

God this CBC intermission (and the announcers) are so flagrantly behind Detroit.

[squidz*]

Oh god, they cut to Vancouver:

"The big news tonight of course, no Danielle Sedin."

I just about died.

[GopherState]

Oh hey, hello tied game in Pittsburgh.

[squidz*]

All I can say is:

Dat save

[vitogor]

What a game in Pittsburgh. Philly was ready to roll over and die at one point, and then all of a sudden we are in OT

you know people are going to say it's because of that off-side goal.

[squidz*]

I hope NBC's announcing crew wasn't fawning over Howard for that save on AK's breakaway like CBC's was.

[GopherState]

1. What a choke-job by Pittsburgh.

2. Keeps getting worse for BJs fans - they have to hit rock bottom one of these days.

[D U M B A]

****! ****! ****! Ugh....

[squidz*]

Zetterberg flagrantly interferes with Nashville player: 2 minute penalty to Erat.

[vitogor]

Oh man, Weber might be gone for a while there...

[melinko]

While I don't think was particularly bad it was at the end of the game, no chance for it to be properly penalized.

I think it should be 1 game.

[Randy BoBandy]

Holy crap Weber lost it . I hope the Wings come back

[GopherState]

This sets up a No-hold barred match between Weber and Zetterberg at Slamboree.

[squidz*]

Meh. Daniel Sedin didn't get even looked at for damn near attempted murder. Zetterberg's not hurt so if Shanahan even considers reviewing this, it's a travesty. Of course, it's Shanahan and someone touched one of his precious Red Wings...

I would think only 1 game also. If he would have stopped after the first attempt he would have been fine.

[Northland Wild Man]

I saw a toe pick.

[vitogor]

Did I just see that correctly? Kessler got a penalty for giving Quick a snow shower?

"Jimmy Howard Rule"

Not sure why CBC's announcers are so surprised by it. They implemented it pretty dramatically...last year? Year before?

Edit: Was Sharks-Wings from last year. Here's a story on it.

I don't remember that.

But the Canucks are falling apart, gotta love it

That was just the retaliation:



While Weber definitely shouldn't have done that, look at the knee Zetterberg threw on Weber that instigated it.
