JJFIVEOH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 When Anaheim turns it on there's no stopping them. Incredible, they just know where all their teammates are on the ice at all times. Quote
Iron Crotch Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Down two in the third? No problem for the Ducks. Quote
... Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Crawford is going to get himself pulled. He's been beat easily a few times now. Quote
Hoss Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Wow. What a collapse by Crawford and Chicago. Quote
Ogre Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 When Anaheim turns it on there's no stopping them. Incredible, they just know where all their teammates are on the ice at all times. The last three goals sums that up nicely bro! Quote
... Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 A bit late to the Anaheim party, but is that Anderson as in formerly from Ottawa Anderson? Quote
Iron Crotch Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) A bit late to the Anaheim party, but is that Anderson as in formerly from Ottawa Anderson? Frederick Andersen from Denmark. The Great Dane. (Drafted by the Ducks) Edited May 24, 2015 by Bulge Quote
... Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Thanks. He seems pretty solid. I love how, at this level, you can not make a mistake because every player is so engaged with the game. Anaheim, especially, seems tuned into where the puck is, and where it's going, without fail. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 I've never been impressed with Crawford. He's always looked clumsy, kicks out a ton of rebounds and not very confident in controlling the puck. Maybe if the Blackhawks hadn't spend $6mil/yr on him they could have afforded #5 and #6 defensemen that they trusted with more than 12 minutes TOI after 80 minutes of play. Quote
qwksndmonster Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Great game. This series never disappoints. I should expect nothing less from the Stanley Cup Finals, though. Quote
LaLaLaFontaine Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Great game. This series never disappoints. I should expect nothing less from the Stanley Cup Finals, though. I think this series is the real Stanley cup final. Either of them will crush the Rangers or the Lightnings. Quote
qwksndmonster Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 I think this series is the real Stanley cup final. Either of them will crush the Rangers or the Lightnings. Yup Quote
Thorner Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Yup I wouldn't be so sure. The Rangers are a very good hockey team, and they would have a distinct advantage in goal if they were to play the Blackhawks. I think Anaheim is the best team right now, but the Rangers, while often playing a less-than-entertaining style of game, are a real threat. Quote
Hoss Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 I don't think any of these teams should be counted out. Chicago and Tampa are both fantastic offensive forces with solid defense corps but are lacking consistent goaltending right now. The Rangers have a defensive system backed by the best goaltender in the game but hasn't been able to consistently generate offense while the King has shown to be capable of a bad game or two. Anaheim has everything going for them but is still in a 2-2 series with a team that has more experience in winning playoff games. Quote

I think that it could go either way with any of the remaining four teams. It seemed like the first two rounds were more lopsided than usual, leading to a closer conference final and most likely final. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) I still think there are too many people on the ice. The linesmen need to each have their own box opposite the bench overlooking a blue line. They can blow the play dead from inside the box when an offsides occurs but still have the option of leaving the box if the refs need help controlling the game. I've seen way to many instances this postseason where the officials make little to no effort in getting out of the way. Edited May 25, 2015 by JJFIVEOH Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 Late to the party. TB in 6; Ducks in 7. Tampa in 6? We may need to get you into one of those early dementia studies..... They only need to win 4 of the next 5. ;) Do you happen to have any war bonds stuffed under your mattress?.......... Quote
Taro T Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 Do you happen to have any war bonds stuffed under your mattress?.......... :lol: Wish I did.It's not over yet, but if TB play like they did in 3&5, it'll take Henrik taking over to save the Rags. Quote
bunomatic Posted May 26, 2015 Report Posted May 26, 2015 Shite. 2 quick ones for the Ducks Chicago looks tired. No shots on goal at the 13 min. mark. Quote
