NHL Playoffs

“Then, one day, there was this gap-toothed kid flying around the ice, looking almost exactly like the Pocket Rocket, forechecking and stuffing the puck on the far side."

Geo, I'm assuming you're talking about Bobby Clark. What a team that was. I can remember when the Russian team was here touring and everyone was amazed at their skating and passing. Then they came to Philly and the Flyers checked them into the next time zone. They were so shell-shocked they wouldn't even come out to play the second period.”

“That should be Clarke, not Clark. I can recall Bill Barber, Dave Schultz and Parent being on the team, if memory serves me. I believe they were nicknamed the Broad Street Bullies.”

“Your memory is on target Geezr.

Bob Kelly, Rick MacLeish, Eddie Van Impe, the Watson Brothers, nobody came into the Spectrum and left without being intimidated.

My fondest memory of that team was going around to collect from Boston and New York fans after they won the cup. They told me to shut the f*** up. I just held out my hand and smiled. Seven to one odds, baaayyyybbeeeee! The beer was cold that night!”

“I thought I was going to need a defibrillator before the game finally ended. Phew!”

“Saturday afternoon.”

“So Saturday evening some woman calls the sports talk station and says she was sitting in front of the TV yelling, "Shoot the freakin puck already!"”

“He shoots; he scores is a two-part statement. You have to do the first for the second to 'appen, ey? Shoot duh puck, ey?”

“Devils resting up for next victims!”

“Just think that could be the Nashville Devils if things had worked out 6-7 yrs ago”

“I wish they were the McMurdo Sound Devils!”

“Can you say Phily sucks!!!!


8o”

“I just got home 2-0!!!! Did Philly even show up? 6 shots on goal?”

“Lalime is killin' 'em. I loved when he was a Penguin!”

“What is up with the Monk? At the blue line?”

“Sorry Geo.”

“The Flyers are gone...I wonder how the Wilds are doing.

I wonder if this could lead to a all Canadian finals?”

“Ducks move on and the Wild kicked the shi! out of Van to stay alive!

“Sorry, Geo.

Bring on the Senate!!”

“Wild - I love the looks on the faces when they win.... Detroit...

"We lost to who???"”

“Duh boys just ran out of gas, eh, but duh organeyezation 'as improve dis year, eh, and wit some improvements over duh off season, duh boys should be able to duh puck and put duh puck in duh net next season, eh, and bring duh cup home t' Broad Street.”

“Do you have marbles in your mouth?”

“Good try Geo... however I think you are attempting to make a Minnesota joke and missed it by talking semi-Canadian.

You get a D- for effort.”

“The troll says he thinks, ... damn, that's a good one!”

“Dang, you are all talkin' about this NHL stuff, and there is a big ole petition circulating around Michigan Tech alumni that calls for the resignation of the AD, since the hockey program stinks real bad and is only getting worse. Its creating quite a stir in the alumni circle.

GO WINGS!

Oh, nevermind. :)”

“Yeah Smiley, Gordie Howe's hung 'em up for the year and he's resting his elbows.”

“What's up with these Canucks? Was leading 3 games to 1...now it's 3 games apiece. The Wilds are kicking their @sses in the last two games.”

“GO WILD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Game 7 who ever would have thought! Believe!”

“Who to root for: Canolis vs Wilt ...”

“So far of picked the Red Wings and the Canucks to win the cup. Vancouver isn't out of it quite yet, but I have a baaaaaaaaad feeling. Who would have ever thunk it?”

“GO WILD!”

“What the hell? I'm rooting for the same team as a troll?

It's just not right, but hey, when you come from MN, you cheer for the team from MN!!!!!!!!”

“Who owns the Chiefs?”

“Well where are you located now? The state of hockey! Taking all the titles this year!! Sweep!
Also you can add a hell of a lot more knowledgeable about the game!”

“You weren't the only one watching the Flyers lose...

Cretian”

“He was watching the Senators WIN. Go OTTAWA.”

“My money is going on the Wild tonight!!!!!


8)”

“Vancouver played a really good first period...but no goal yet.

Back to the game.”

“Ruutu that's the guy who was yapping at the bench last night.

Bertuzzi Scores!”

“sorry wrong info, it wasn't Ruutu that scored.”

“WILD WIN WILD WIN!!!!!

“Welcome to the club, Hodgeman. I'll cry in my Yuenglings and you cry in your Molsons.
