Sharks are playing like they want it

i think this is the first time a backup goalie has played for the Avs in the playoffs (isnt it?)

this year, yes. remember game 7 of the western conference finals in 2002 between the avs and wings? ;)

Can't believe the flames won that game. They were outplayed easily for the first two periods and most of the third period. There was also one goal in the first period that was disallowed :( Very disappointing. I hope the Wings don't plan on losing this series...

BTW, I'm glad the Avs lost (as is every Red Wings fan :p).

Senators' Martin fired after another playoff loss to Leafs

if u ask me, its not Martin whos the problem in Ottawa, its the ****heads who go out on the ice everyday, dump Lalime, find a better goalie, re-organize that team who has no desire to win a hockey game. Put some heart on that team, talent will get u no where if u have no desire to win

That's the problem with Martin. He doesn't inspire heart. Pat Quinn may be a lowsy tactical coach (especially compared with Martin) but if there is one thing that Pat Quinn is good at its inspiring a team to win.

I'm not saying that Pat Quinn is the best coach ever (although he did get us a gold metal in 2002). My problem with Quinn is his dedication to selected players (Reichel, Renberg and Antropov). They must be great guys off the ice...

Detroit got rattled yesterday but they'll get better. I'm sorta mixed feelings here. I want Detroit to win but I also want the Flames to win. As for Aebischer, I think he was just caught off guard (really off guard). Hopefully he'll be playing a lot better on Saturday though, or a second loss could mean a possible elimination in Round 2 for the Avs.

Roy had his bad games as well. Remember the blow out a couple of playoffs ago, when the Wings and Avs were playing in game 7? I think Roy gave up 6 goals in that game. All goalies has their bad days. During the playoffs, it gets put under a microscope just like everything else. Aebischer had a bad game against the Stars and the next game he was great. So, hopefully he will bounce back and play good. If not, then Avs should get their golf clubs ready for the off season.

Can't wait for 1pm. local game 2 Flames vs. Detroit.

A little quote from Manny Legace;

"That is going to be a scary playoff team. Scary, I know I'd be worried playing them," Legace said after that win. "If their goaltending gets hot, and no one's been hotter than Kiprusoff, they could make some serious noise, some Anaheim-like noise, this year."

The Flames got absolutely KILLED today by the Wings lol... Iginla is an idiot for fighting Hatcher, that shows no leadership. He is their top scorer, and fighting a 6'5 defensemen :| ... btw, the AVs are embarrasing themselves right now :p

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
