The Official Neowin NHL Playoff Thread

I agree the ducks suck. Detroit did not loose. Dallas is mutilating 6-0 each game. They are nothing but a bunch of flukey cheater infedels who, praise allah, will commit suicide. Anaheim's goalie sucks. He is cheating. He is using a rubber magnet. ALL WILL BE KILLED! Dallas will win i tell you.

Seems the Iraqi information minister agrees.

Damn, I just read through 60 pages of hockey posts. Wish I would have found this sooner. My favorite part: The only thing mentioned about the TB vs Capitols series was someone asking if anyone cared about it. hehe.

To add my thoughts about the ducks, I admittedly have not watched much of their series, but anyone who can win 7 of 8 games against the #1 and #2 teams in the west have my respect.

Anyway, I just thought I'd stop in and support my Hometown: GO CANUCKS! OLE! OLE-OLE!

i'm not from cali either, i'm from michigan. and i'm rooting for the ducks in the west, but that will stop as soon as they meet the flyers in the finals :p

is it just me, or are the ducks and the wild almost similar teams? same work hard, grind it out, create your chances, capitolize on mistakes type of team? tiny payroll, good coaching. only difference is one beat the wings and the other didn't...and now they are the ones getting picked on.

[Cara Veteran]

Actually BroChaos, to me the difference is that the Wild have played their entire season way above the expectations of a young expansion team. The ducks are a more established club with a record to consider.

If the two teams were on a level playing field, same age and payroll, then the ducks would be impressing me. It will take a few more years of extreme play by the ducks before I feel the same about them that I currently do the Wild.

theres no pleasing you huh? even if they are on some sort of a lucky streak... you have to consider they ended the season with 96 points in a conference that had 4teams with 100+ pts and 1 team with 99pts, and they eliminated probably the best team in recent history in 4 straight games, which is unheard of, and theyre on the way to eliminate the 2nd best team this season. So say what u want, the Ducks are on a roll, JS is outstanding, and all the players on the Ducks contribute evenly, there is no one puck-hog that is carrying that team, each player is putting in his own blood and sweat to get where they are now.

Hehe, as you all know dallas was from minesota. Coincidence... I think not!!!
