OK, series by series, round by round, let's hear them. Eastern Conference Round 1 Buffalo vs NYI Sabres in 5 NJ vs Tampa Devils in 5 Atlanta vs NYR NYR in 6 playing real well down the stretch Sens vs Pens Tough call but Sens in 6 or 7

What's the bag limit for Anahiem Ducks----4 :lmfao :lmfao :rofl1 :rofl1

So anyone have any preference who Ottawameets in the final? Personlly I would like to see Detroit (although its not looking good). They are a much older team and I wanna see the big line give Hasek a spanking :-)

And then there were two in the East. I for one am glad we get to play Buffalo. Time to get revenge on the punking we got last year.:biting: GOSENSGO:thumbsup

I know that the word "surreal" gets used a lot, especially lately (Alfie, about a million times in the last 24 hours :-)), but it's a pretty surreal feeling to actually live in the town where there's at worst a 1-in-2 chance that the Stanley Cup will come in no more than 3 weeks time. As many...

I'm a huge Sens fan but this is just too funny! http://eod.liquidviewer.com/wgr-od/wgr/20070507_ottawa.wma

This afternoon half of Canada and dozens of Americans will tune into the Sens/Buffalo game. The NHL has sold out to the American networks. So if you see a poll that asks if you watched the game, say no, even though you did watch. If the NHL thinks it's losing viewers and therefore money, they may...

“Our God who art in Scotiabank Place, Senators be thy name. Thy puck come, Thy save be done in the air as it is on ice. Give us this day our Stanley Cup and forgive us our slashing, As we send out Neil for those who slash against us. And lead us not into golfing, but deliver us from...

One down, 3 more to go. Although the Sharks were not dominate in this game after the first period they got the job done. The winning PP goal was a beauty by Matte Carle. A perfect pass from behind the net by Joe Thornton. :thumbsup I thought Mike Grier was one of the Sharks better players in...

Ok, did anyone predict this kind of a start? Wow. GOSENSGO

Within the first two weeks of the season, the local sports pundits were predicting that the Sens wouldn't make the playoffs. Good thing these guys aren't paid for being right or for being patient. 105 points for this season. Priceless. Here's my prediction. The Sens will go deep into the...

Playoffs trash talk. Will the sens be true to their reputation of best before? 1st round,2nd round,conference final or all the way?

Anyone know why the Canadian national anthem was sung at the Buff/NYI game tonight????

As I type this I am waiting for the 4th OT period between Dal and Van to start. Its been a pretty exciting night of hockey. A good start for sure. Can't wait for the other series to start later tonight. What did everyone else think of the first night of the playoffs?

I've got the 2007 Playoff Pool set up on the NCGT site. The direct link is here: http://www.nationalcapitalgolftour.com/ForumFantasyLinks/HockeyPlayoffPool/tabid/113/Default.aspx You have to be a registered member of the site to create an entry. You have until 6:00PM Eastern on April 11th...

Well look who is back to his "old stuff" again............:rolleyes http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=ApccUupzXaPBiE8PBMFnnDV7vLYF?slug=ap-panthers-arrests&prov=ap&type=lgns

What is going on here???? Sens and Pens at 3 on Sat afternoon after playing the first game on Wed. No canadian team for Hockey Night In Canada on Sat night and no late game.....something is not right with that. And then the Sens/Pens play again on Sun?????? At least there is a triple header on Sun.

:laughing: Now I'm going to draw some flak about this, but, once again the leafs are..NOT going to the playoffs.....As a diehard red wing fan, perhaps the leaf faithful can get a petition together and oust Ferguson and the rest of the dead wood, get better scouting and hopefully win the cup before...

Apparently Huet will be starting in goal for the Habs. Good idea or not? :scratchch They need at least a tie, and this guy hasn't played in a while whereas the rookie goalie has held the fort quite nicely. Carboneau is taking a chance here, hope it doesn't backfire on him.

I still can't believe what I saw. GSP got beat down pretty hard by Serra. He looked tense and slipped a couple of time, leading to Serra's first hard punch and from that point on, it avalanched on GSP. :fight: :rolleyes Serra is a nice guy, but I was rooting for GSP. :( And while on that...

Lets say the islanders beat PHI tomorrow at 1pm And then the leafs beat MTL in regulation at 7pm Does NJ win the game against the Islanders so BUF has to play TOR??? Or do they lose the game so BUF has to play the NYI? If MTL loses the game in OT does NJ lose the game so BUF plays NYI or win...

:thumbsdow http://www.canada.com/vancouverisland/nanaimo/story.html?id=2a01f814-60bf-49c8-a2fa-bdf6247f1212 I am sure most of you have heard or read the story about the Shawville kid being 'banned' from the regionals.:mecry Here is another point of view. First these little rinky dinky places...

What's the deal with Lamoriello? Too lazy to coach the regular season, only likes to coach the playoffs? I guess they were in a mini-slump, they'd only won 4 of their last 5 and are sitting in the #2 playoff spot. Wonder what the heck is going on there. ...

I have to addmit that I am surprised by this announcement. I was sure that the CBC was getting out of broadcasting pro sports and would not put up big dollars to compete with CTV or TSN. I suppose it's a good thing unless they bring back Neil and Cole for 6 more years.

IMO an excellent coach is only as good as the players he is handed out. So in your opinion who is the best NHL coach and why?

So both Crosby and Thornton have 7 & 6 games respectively left in the regular season. Crosby currently leads Thornton by 4 points for the Scoring Title. Joe has been on a tear lately, racking up multiple points games. Do you think he can catch Crosby and retain his title? The Pens face these...

After watching the Nashville Dallas game the other night, and not to mention all of the sportsnews orgs are talking about it, I think the NHL made 2 decisions that were correct but got 1 wrong in the worst sense. Tootoo got 5 games for protecting himself, don’t kid yourself either because...

Just learned in the office... A buddy of mine has one of his daughters working at GolfTown in Kanata. Apparently Martin Gerber was recently seen shopping for golf clubs. -- This can't be good for us Senator fans... :wallbash Cheers, Don

Who else is sick of seeing athletes like this crying like babies? Reports are circulating that he and the Oilers were only $100K apart / year? On $5.4M / year for 5 years, that is peanuts. If you really want to stay in Edmonton, sign the deal, otherwise, quit your crying.

Can anybody tell me why these guys are the announcers for sens games. The announcers can't even remember Redden, i believe it was "Redson". They are just goofballs, i swear i would rather have the game in Chinese than hear these guys, and trust me i don't know Chinese! :wallbash:wallbash. Also,...

With all the "hype" of the NCAA March Madness south of the border our Canadian University Basketball often gets overlooked. These kids are the true sense of "Student Athletes" not "Athlete Students" waiting to leave school after their Junior year for the NBA. Carleton University is back to...

The suspension is pending a league hearing. Nice hatchet job on Hollweg last night. What a tool. :rolleyes

Every year, there's one team that makes a heck of a run. In my bracket, I have Nevada making it to the final four. I never do well in this pool, but one year I just might fluke it for a million!

Two games in a row the Sens come out flat in the third period, blow a lead and end up losing. Where's the motivation to finish a team off. Brutal, just brutal. Not a good habit to get into with the playoffs just around the corner. :thumbsdow :rolleyes Maybe some veteran leadership would help???

Here's hoping they hang on tonight. :wallbash :wallbash :wallbash (wanted to use a few of those typographical characters but am no longer allowed to do so!) :meditate:

With the NHL trade deadline only a few days away, what do you think the Sens will do if anything to better themselves for the playoff run?

I have heard broken one piece composite sticks can now be repaired. Anybody know a place who does this. East end preferably.

What is this crap?!? Lindsay won't put Peter's on the ice because he knows that he's gonna get destroyed and Mair won't drop the gloves after yet another patened Sabre cheapshot to Spezza. Come on Lindsay grow a set before one of your other *****s get hurt

:biting: :biting: :biting: Lindy Ruff is a PUNK!!! There is no way that Neil's elbow was high on the hit on Drury!! If freaking Drury wasn't only as tall as a grasshopper he would have taken the hit in the chest........but the Lindsay sends out the goons to fight Spezza and Heatly - give me a...

Got into quite a discussion with some guys at work today bout the extra point for an OT win or Shootout win...... I really don't like shootouts. I guess I am from the old school that likes them to play overtime until someone scores and WINS the game but I also don't agree with the point for the...

From todays Ottawa Citizen sports. Leafs are honouring the 1967 Cup champs tonight. HaHaHAHA...!!! 40 years from now those 1967 player's kids and grandkids will be at centre ice going through the same ceremony celebrating the last Leafs Cup win !!!:lmfao ...

Yes I am in the cult regardless of where I am living. My crystal ball is telling me it's another year of missing the playoffs. :hissyfit:

I'm in a baketball league, its free to play and there are no prizes. We play for pride!!! Anyone interested? you get 35mil to start and you have to buy 6 players, you get 2 trades a week and the object of the game is to get as many points as possible. 1 point for a point, 2 points for an...

It's that time of year again. The trade market is starting to heat up. Figured I'd start this thread. Who needs what? Who is available? etc. It's time to speculate. I gotta say that I really liked that move by calgary to pick up Stuart and Primeau. The question now is can they resign...

See: http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=195934&hubname= Why is the NHL so inconsistent with the administration of suspensions. Some players will get them others don't when sometimes they should. I'm not angry because he got suspended I'm angry because other players don't when clearly they...

how about this interview, a little bit homophobic ya think http://tsn.ca/nba/news_story/?ID=196316&hubname=
