IF ILYA BRYZGALOV IS SO GREAT WHY HAS HE BEEN ON FOUR TEAMS IN TEN YEARS: THE NHL 2011-2012 THREAD (INCLUDING VANCOUVER RECONSTRUCTION, BOSTON HANGOVER AND OFFSEASON SHENANIGANS. HOCKEY IS THE BEST)

hard to believe marc-andre fleury won a cup once

i don't think i've ever seen a team/athlete so completely inside another's head as the flyers are in the penguins' right now

Good thing that 2500 dollar precedent has been set nice work shanny

otm. the rationale that a one-game suspension in a seven-game playoff series is like an 11-game suspension over an 82-game season is absurd. alfie or zetterberg or whomever is no less concussed because it's the playoffs

This might be the bloodiest series I've seen since Wings/Avs 97

And I mean 98 too if you want

gf scored tix to hawks/coyotes game 4 on thursday, stoked for the playoff madness even if I think hawks = lamestains

both goalies pulled in new jersey!

three goal lead is very dangerous, even worse then 2 goal

Wow no idea Brodeur is still playing.

Just saw Hossa get laid out big time

That was a Bill Magill special if there ever was one.

three goal lead is very dangerous, even worse then 2 goal

haha this is ridiculous, but god knows the penguins believe it

damn preds just got totally totally robbed on a goal call

legwand sonned by a bettman in a hockey beef etc

And then they get one legit, and Detroit equalize on a crazy shot from the point. Craziness.

should i name my future cat legwand y/n

y

a lot of the predators have quality names for cats imo

'hal gill'

'barry trotz'

this is a good game!

barry trotz would be one of those flat-faced cats; can't have it

preds and blues are for real, though. yet i'm not too sure about a cat named tj oshie

what if there was a night of playoff hockey and only one guy died?

then i'd hope it was your guy

hawks-phx has gotten so nuts -- fights at literally every whistle

there's playoff hockey and there's shit getting out of hand -- this is the latter

at least shanny won't have handicapped anyone, bless

someone fucking summon andy van hellemond and kerry fraser from retirement

o_o

raffi torres sucks, and is a racist, and left his feet to hit hossa

big hits are sweet, but i'd much rather see hossa play hockey than be wheeled off/watch raffi torres do anything

yeah that hit was disgusting and how the ref missed it is nuts

if shaw got docked three games torres has to get at least 4 imo

he will get nothing unless hossa is suitably damaged, and even then not more than one

this might go on a while

my prediction: hawks ultimately score off a michal rozsival turnover

MARIAN HOSSA DIED YOUR NHL 2012-2012 THREAD (INCLUDING ________, _________ HANGOVER AND OFFSEASON SHANNAHANIGANS HOCKEY IS THE BEST)

oduya the cat
hjalmarsson the cat

ooh blackhawks must not be feeling great right now

wau that's a bad goal corey crawford

fucking hell that was soft

pretty sure sidney crosby's ass just scored a goal

there's been nothing like this series for twenty years

apparently the key to the flyers-penguins series is to let the other team score first

25 years ago tonight btw

YESSSSSSSS

yay schneider! and daniel!

crawford is fucking maddening

it's okay; your panthers are even
