National Hockey League 2007-08 Stanley Cup Playoffs

[Cara Veteran]

Hmmm...A way to tested my math skills...lol by my horrible math...the habs have a higher %. My math

2007 - Year they were formed / number of cups

(ex 2007 - 1917 / 24)

Habs win it every 3.75 years

Leafs every 6.9 years

Wings every 8.1 years

Noe: My math is bad, I don't use much anymore, so I could be wrong. And I'm not saying who is/isn't hockey town. I was bored. I have already said I want the Red Wings to win. Though had been hoping for a Habs vs Wings cup game...

Now the question is can you do that math with the difference between founding dates. ;)

Aren't the Habs celebrating 100 years next season?

EDIT: Looked up on Wiki. Habs founded December 4, 1909. 1909-1917 in NHA, won first cup in 1915-1916. NHL from 1917 til now. So 24 cups over 99 years equals a cup every 4.125 years. Also, first cup was awarded in 1893 to The Montreal Hockey Club (commonly called the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association). So I guess Montreal has won more than 24 cups total. They also won 4 cups between 1893 and 1903.

Sure are! 1909 - 2009, that should be an amazing celebration!

Cara: THe best I can do is to not count cups won Before the wings were formed, which is two for the Habs, and two for the leafs. New numbers would be

Habs = 3.7

leafs = 7.4

Wings = 8.1

Best I can do with my math lol

SaucE - 1909 - 1917 they were part of the NHA, then moved to the NHL

Was still the Stanley Cup though.

Was still the Stanley Cup though.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that it wasn't, I was in a hurry. Wish I could be around for Calgary's 100th years...Bet it will be one hell of a party in Montreal

Good conversations, but Det and Dallas are playing tonight, it will be a sweep most likely.

Dallas was spent after that last series, they had nothing in the tanks.

[Cara Veteran]

In short...

WTF Mate?

[ncc50446]

lol Wow...so much for win number 10 in a row.

[rajputwarrior]

i have to agree with cara, detroit is a great team. I am 22 years old and DO NOT remember the wings ever sucking.

WTF Mate?

Was that at me or because you lost? :unsure:

[Cara Veteran]

Was that at me or because you lost? :unsure:

At the Wings, or whoever that was wearing the Wings uniforms since it sure wasn't the team we've been watching in the playoffs. :p

[+StevoFC MVC]

holy **** this Pens game is starting off pretty intense haha.

[Cara Veteran]

I suppose this was just not meant to be a set of sweeps for either team. A shame!

[Matrix XII]

Yeah, two interesting games in a row.

I think both series will be decided at home though.

[Cara Veteran]

Time to give the fans what they pay for huh? ;)

[Matrix XII]

We'll see what happens tomorrow. I don't think Dallas can win at the Joe, especially in the physical state they are in. Several of their skaters (including Morrow) are barely holding together, I'm sure he has multiple injuries.

[mikebiacsi]

Im gonna predict a 4-1 win for Detroit tonight.

[Cara Veteran]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and call for a 2-1 Detroit Win tonight, I feel the defense will be a lot tighter tonight given the last game and the focus will be more on keeping them off balance rather than a blow out score.

dallas just took the early lead...

This is unreal. What's going on with the Wings?

[rajputwarrior]

This is unreal. What's going on with the Wings?

they are old and their age is finally catching up to them?

[Cara Veteran]

they are old and their age is finally catching up to them?

I'd love to use that as an excuse but they haven't even had to work hard this playoff season so I doubt it.

They just look lazy and sloppy out there. Time to pick it up guys and make Dallas see stars already, this is dragging out way to long. :p

Four Non Blondes - What's Going On?

25 years of my life and still

I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope

for a destination

I realized quickly when I knew I should

that the world was made up of this brotherhood of man

for whatever that means

chorus:

'n so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed

just to get it all out what's in my head

'n I, I'm feeling a little peculiar

'n so I wake in the morning and I step outside

'n I take a deep breath

'n I get real high

'n I scream from the top of my lungs

what's goin' on

and I say hey-ey-ey... (jodel-di-dodel...)

and I said hey what's going on

and I say hey... etc. (uh! uu-uuhu-huhuuuu...)

I said hey what's going on

and I try, oh my God do I try

I try all the time

in this institution

and I pray, oh my God do I pray

I pray ev'ry single day

for a revolution

(chorus)

25 years of my life and still

I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope

for a destination

Dallas just won their second game! Could this be the first 4-3 comeback in 30 years?

[MikeFu84]

We got a series now. Dallas will still fall short though.
