That Rangers-Senators game was pretty volatile. May turn out to be quite a series.

he NHL is the worst league in terms of officiating and discipline. Too often wether or not the player appears injured at the time is noted as a contributing reason for the punishment or lack there of. The action should be judged on it's own not in combination with the effect on the player being hit.

You'd think they would learn from what's going on in the NFL with lawsuits, the NHL will be next.

Panthers have comeback after being behind 3-0 after the 1st period. Devils had outshot the Panthers 26-9 in the 1st quarter. 2nd quarter, different game. Panthers score 2 and out shoots the Devils 18-6.

3rd period is gonna be a "beaut"!

 

[KCK_Halo]

Even if they lose tonight, the Flyers are defintely the team to beat in this series. Pittsburgh just cannot hold on to a lead. Very disappointing seeing as how they were such a powerhouse during the season.

3 goal deficit was too much to make-up...Panthers lose 3-2. Shots were at a premium in the last quarter, only 4 a piece. There were no whistle stoppage for the 1st 11 minutes of the 3rd period.

Just turned to the flyers/pens game, I see pens lost a lead again, hopefully it will be same result for them

I watched the entire first period, and if it wasn't for Theodore it could have easily been 6-0 Devils. Got to hand it to the Panthers for weathering the early storm (26 Devil shots on goal in the first)!

Detroit wins 3-2........series tied at 1.

 

[satjay]

Wow wonder what the crowd is going to be like in Phili for game three!

 

[BillD1984]

Wow, the Kings take two in Vancouver!

 

[satjay]

Some kudos to wings goaltender Jimmy Howard last night he had a real nice game as the wings D was not very good last night

Too much parity in the NHL these days...not going to see a team win 4 or 5 in a row anytime soon.

 

[KCK_Halo]

Wow, the Kings take two in Vancouver!

Yes it is, Bill. But we all know how many teams have taken the 1st 2 and lost the series. David is putting up the good fight to Goliath in this one!

Electric to say the least!
I'm very disappointed (as are many) with the Pens right now. You just nevr know once "the second seson" kicks off, do you?

 

[cybok0]

Season is over for the pens, I'll have to root for the sharks.

 

[KCK_Halo]

How can you do that so soon? Check the history...alot of teams have gone into the Quarter Finals down 2-0 and come back to win the series.

 

[satjay]

I would agree crazy things happen in the Stanley cup playoffs but the way they first two games went can be heartbreaking

 

[KCK_Halo]

Oh yes! Like many people I was cheering the Pens to a victory with...what? 20 seconds left in the game? Then...POW!!!! I sat back and asked myself out loud "Did I just see what I thought I saw????" Absolute deflation.

But, all along people have been saying this is the one series that would be the nail-biter and blood-drawer. It ain't over yet!
