Official NHL 2005-2006 Playoff Thread

flyers got rocked today :(

they looked so off, they were constantly one step behind it seemed. never really even threatened.

Flyers are a talented bunch but are big and slow, even with Gagne and some others. Buffalo is small and fast so Philly has to either beat up on the Sabres or they'll get trampled all over with their speed. I honestly didn't think it would be this close but if Philly can use their strength and their talent they can win this in 7

For tonight, I hope Edmonton finishes off the series with Detroit, and Ducks beat Calgary for a game 7.

Detroit, though their numbers are inflated because of playing in a weak division, are still a good team and tonight isn't gonna be a walk in the park for Edmonton.

well edmonton just got screwed twice. roloson got steamrolled, but no goalie interference call, and then the oilers had a breakaway, but it was called offside, even though detroit had brought the puck back into their own zone.

Officiating has some serious flaws these playoffs. I dunno what the hell is going on. Huet for the habs has been plowed and slashed all series and only last game were there 2 goaltender interference calls out of a possible dozen the previous games. Also A LOT of calls have gone uncalled like that sever high stick to Koivu's eye and one on Markov.

I missed the 2 Detroit goals, but sometimes if an edmonton player is the reason for Roloson being plowed over then its not considered interference as it was their own fault. It has occured a lot this season. I'll rewind it on my DVR and give you my opinion after watching it :)

Sweet deal! It's been way to long for us here in the E-dot and we are finally through! I believe someone said that Detroit was ranked #1 going into the race for the cup? Not sure as I typically watch the playoffs here but regardless....the boys in blue are on their way. Wicked finish to this game/series.

And now I'm off to the bar to celebrate the sweet taste of victory!

Wow! Well, the Dallas/Colorado series pitted my two favourite teams, so good stuff there. So glad that Detroit is out. Them and Toronto are her favourite teams so I can just laugh. These playoffs are so entertaining so far. Canadian teams for the cup!

Koharski, what a moron. The puck was in and out of the net before the interference call on Kipper. What a disgusting call.

NHL is becomming a joke. Thanks for fudging up the playoffs with your excellent officiating.

Whats even worse is that the NHL came out with a statement after the Koivu high stick saying "If we had seen it we would have called it"

There you go, the NHL admitting that its officials suck and can't see blatant penalties and make the proper calls/.

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
    • 🤦🏻‍♂️ No, expected because 10 EOL
    • Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.
