Oh my god, Nabby disappoints again.

Go Stars

And you guys were picked by almost everyone to win the Stanley Cup, too.

Series ain't over yet. It's really not looking bright, though.

AbuGrape45 · **Posted:** Tue Apr 29, 2008 11:19 pm

OK boys, you need a win tonight. The way I see it, this is a do or die game for you. You don't wanna fall 3-0 in the series to a finishing team like the Stars.

Roenick, Thornton, your time is now. MAKE A MOVE.

Acekirby · **Posted:** Wed Apr 30, 2008 5:36 am

Stars are up 3-0.

Red Wings are also up, which means the Avalanche are now facing elimination.

The Sharks are not going to pull a Boston.

AbuGrape45 · **Posted:** Thu May 01, 2008 4:07 am

They will pull this one out. I can feel it in my bones.

Acekirby · **Posted:** Thu May 01, 2008 9:18 pm

The Stars aren't going to drop the ball again. They'll finish them off.

AbuGrape45 · **Posted:** Fri May 02, 2008 3:41 am

Game 7 will be played.

Seriously. Comparing the Sharks to Boston is ridiculous. They've got better defensemen, better shooters, better puck movement, better everything.

We will see.

I think they were referring to the Red Sox of '04. Down 3-0 to the Yanks in the ALCS. I may be wrong though.

*Self-facepalm*

I thought they meant force a game seven and then lose.

AbuGrape45 · **Posted:** Sat May 03, 2008 4:58 am

LOOK AT ME:

THIS
IS
NOT
OVER.

An overtime win is exactly what the doctor ordered for the Sharks. Nabokav got some confidence back, and Roenick is at it again.

Enjoy game 6 in Dallas.

OH BTW GRAVE, your Habs are doomed.

You say that like it will bug me. I would have been happy just to see them make the playoffs, let alone get the #1 seed.

Plus, I already got a championship this year.

Yeah it is. I don't see the Sharks making a comeback. They made an effort but eh.

Quote:

With a 3-1 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on April 3, 2008 that eliminated the Sabres out of playoff contention, they became only the third team in NHL history to go from finishing first overall in the regular season standings to finishing out of the playoffs the following year. Both of the previous two teams to do so ended up winning the Stanley Cup the following year.

Maybe a good sign.

You know what we meant by that. They're not coming back from a deficit like Boston did.

They're also playing a MUCH better team than the Montreal Canadiens.

AbuGrape45 · **Posted:** Sat May 03, 2008 9:53 pm

^Um, no?

The Habs are the 1 seed. The Stars are the 5 seed, with weak, weak defensemen.

Acekirby · **Posted:** Sat May 03, 2008 9:56 pm

If you had paid attention at all, you'd know the Habs did not deserve to be the number 1 seed. By no means did they ever pull away and lead the division. Ottawa's collapse had a HUGE impact on how the standings went. Montreal more or less just snuck in there at the end.

Montreal was not better than Boston. I know the season record shows otherwise, but it was very possible for the Bruins to beat them in the playoffs. They just didn't finish.

The West is just a much stronger conference, anyway. Just look at the playoff picture. In the West you've got Detriot and San Jose (and had Minnesota and Anehiem) and in the East you've got what...the Penguins?

AbuGrape45 · **Posted:** Mon May 05, 2008 2:14 am

After some thought, I've realized why the Sharks fell 3 games back in this series:

1. They're not attacking the puck. If you look at every goal Dallas has scored, you'd see that you have blue sweaters standing around, and staring at the puck like it's gonna sit up and bark.

2. TURNOVERS. Nuff said.

3. When Nabby takes the puck behind the crease, he gets too casual, which results in turnovers and scores.

4. JESUS, SOMEONE CLEAR THE DAMNED PUCK!

That is all.

Tough luck, Abu. Sharks definitely looked stronger in the overtime periods, but if you're a man down, it doesn't matter how strong you are. Great game to watch though.

Beyond the Grave · **Posted:** Mon May 05, 2008 1:40 pm

It was. I watched the first two overtimes, before I went to bed. Turco and Nabokov were brilliant. The announcers kept saying that it was the team that made a mistake was the one that would lose, and they were right. You cannot afford a penalty in overtime.

Oh and before I forget, Abu, here's your crow.

Eat up.

I'll kill you.

What was the call, highsticking? I didn't see it. That was clearly a make-up call for a blown one against Dallas in the third period. Fine, but the 4th overtime is not the right time for that.

It was a tough one to watch. I was shaking all 4 OT periods, especially the 4th one.

I'm proud of that little run they made. I'm glad they didn't get swept, or even lose 4-1.

Beyond the Grave · **Posted:** Tue May 06, 2008 12:49 am

I guarantee that Detroit watched that game with a smile from ear to ear.

The Eastern Conference Final should be interesting. It's a battle for Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh vs. Philadelphia.

You sound like a Buffalo fan.
