hopefully dominik hasek's playoff shutout record doesn't get broken this soon. :( giggy is at 2 now, right?

[neowin_hipster]

Giguerre is playing pretty damn well. He's got a good solid technique, smart position, and against a team like minnesota, he won't let in many goals. The canucks however......

[mxp]

don't count mini out

[BroChaos Veteran]

i think everyone's learned not to count the wild out, it's just that they need to figure out a way to get pucks past giguerre.

Good job to the Devils AND Sens tonight, a well played Hockey Game til the very end. :)

As for the ducks? Time someone taught them how to croak.

sensing a lot of hate for the ducks... :unsure:

[Cara Veteran]

Just a little?

This should help. ;)

I say the Wild win tonight in Anaheim,

Wild win on the road

Wild win when the chips are down

I tell ya what, Ducks may be a better team overall, more talent, more experience, etc, HOWEVER, the Ducks tend to only play 2 periods, and the Wild play 3+, those kids just don't give up. and I do mean kids, .... but like I said. GO WILD. they can do this, and the ducks are getting to old and boring to have that cup. We need fresh blood at the top, if only for a year.

[CatnipOligarchy]

well the wild have come back twice before...whats one more time, eh?...

i really hope the sens can beat new jersey though...as long as that happens the rest will be fine

if anaheim wins tonight, i think its time to renew the golf memberships cause the wild havent come back from a 3-0 defecit.. only 3-1, which, is still an amazing feat

huh? How about 3 periods plus 3 extra OT agains the detriot. O don't forget all those extra OT against Dallas as well.

Even though they won, they still only played a combined total of 2 periods, It was a metaphor, not to be taken literally, they don't seem to work their a$$es off , not like the wild anyway.....IMHO of course.

but oh well, there can only be one winner.

Go Wild

[lawtai]

Well, if you say that they only work for like 2 periods, the other periods where they haven't worked, they've been able to keep the Wild from scoring, so that isn't too bad.

;) heh, ....true

i think ducks will go up 3-0 then win 4-1

[OrangeSoul]

GIGUERE with 16 saves in 1st period, Anahiem up 1-0. Jiggy!!!!

[BroChaos Veteran]

2-0 now. man, did you just see that goal they called off?? that was a fricken laser beam. should be 3-0 now.

[bayrider]

BroChaos... i thought you were going to be at the game in anaheim

[-Clark-]

yay, ducks win 4-0 :)

[BroChaos Veteran]

BroChaos... i thought you were going to be at the game in anaheim

my friend didn't come through with the tix :crazy:

[kainashi]

damn anaheim. damn them to hell. :angry:

[lawtai]

the mighty ducks! They can come out with the mighty ducks 4 about this season if the ducks can pull off the stanley cup.

[bayrider]

i want Jiggy to get a 4th straight donut and hold the record for shutting out a team in the playoffs for the entire series
