BJBlue Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Well we're going to the playoffs, anyone want to join us? We'd love to but we're only safe by 1 point and these are our remaining games @ Oliers, @ Canucks, @ Sharks, Sharks, @ Preds, Blues Can't see us getting the wins we need to stay in from those. Have to hope that the chasing teams mess up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 We're bumbling towards a spot. Doubt we'll do anything of note once we get it though... although there is some thought that we're trying to manage our position in the post season with our recent bad run I don't prescribe to it myself.

I think I'd rather finish 6th than 4th or 5th really, would prefer a tie against the south eastern winners than Philly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the gist of it, yeah. Once we have that little x next to our name I will be happy. Until then I'll believe we can screw it up.

dave_ragg1984 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 We're in, and like Josh said, 6th seems to be a better position to finish than 4th or 5th. And I think 6th is well and truly locked up. Oh, and another Marty Brodeur shutout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyOAFC Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Been following the leafs all season. Staying up, watching 'em. Gutted when we threw it all away (just after the all-stars game). Such a great start and we lost it. Ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 Boom. Best Penalty Kill since the expansion in the 60's!! That's Devils hockey bitches!! We average more goals for, when short handed, than against!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We average more goals for, when short handed, than against!! That's mighty impressive. I don't want to play you in the playoffs, not because you're a decent side (which you are) but because playoff hockey is meant to be entertaining. Watching this Devils side in an attritional scenario may make me want to end it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 Now I accept your mocking tone in the spirit it was intended. But, as always feel compelled to argue anyway! You do realise that to be the best PK side for half a century and score more than you concede on said PK then you have to play some mighty fine counter attacking hockey? Check out our 5-on-1 break out goal last night against the Sens! Honestly though as long as we don't do something stupid against the Panthers I think you may struggle to break us down, given the team coming out of Phi-Pit game is going to have taken one hell of a kicking to make Rnd 2.

Ackey Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 And if your willing to trawl back far enough you will find in a rare moment of sanity that I said resigning Sykora was a Masterstroke and the aforementioned 5 on 1 was his 21st of the season!

jsslatic Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Fine, I'll talk to myself. Tight games last night. I was also bemused to see the number of empty seats in the highlights for the St Louis game last night, it's the bloody playoffs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Sorry. Too late for the prediction party. Huge game in Phi-Pit series last night! 13 goals in a playoff game is mental! Jersey started well. Paddy E's goal to make it 1-0 in the first is astonishing. If Sid or Ovy or Malkin had done that it would be all over the front of NHL.com!

dave_ragg1984 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Totally dominated the first period. Thought we were going to throw it away in the second. Third was a lot tighter, and probably the quickest 3rd period I've ever seen. The puck hardly seemed to go out of play. Florida have one good line, which shouldn't be enough to get you anywhere in the playoffs. So barring a major cock up, we should get through. Long way to go though.

Lukers1 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Its all right for you lot, my team put a letter on the main site apologising for yet another :censored:e season. They were on fire when I saw them live against the Sabres.. No playoffs of 7 years.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
