2017 NHL Playoffs Thread

[Adelle Dazeem]

I'm so uninterested in the finals, tonight is the first game I was watched even a minute of...both teams are just blah to me. More catfish in the ice...snooze.

I'm definitely in the camp of wanting Nashville to win so Crosby doesn't. I also like PK too.

I have definitely had enough of Sidney. He has turned into quite the dirty player & he gets away with ALOT because he is Sidney.

Go Preds!

Agreed. I don't think any other player would still be playing in the playoffs after nut checking a player and cutting off another player's finger with a high stick.

Those are egregious in their own right. But the way he works his blade under someone's visor is borderline criminal.

It's a best of 3 series now.

We'll be down there for CMA weekend. So can only imagine the time that we will have if the Preds win THE CUP in game 6. I will feel kind of bad for the acts performing from 8-10 at the Nissan. Trying to compete with "Let's go Preds" chants and flying catfish.

I'm glad the series is tied. I don't like it when a team goes up 3 games to 1.

I need to get to Nashville someday to see a game.

I like hockey.

But when the NHL headlines on ESPN are about Carrie Underwood's bday present to her husband, Charles Barkley (stick to basketball) and Subban's bad breath.....no. It reads like a People magazine. I do understand they do it that way because hockey doesn't draw in the numbers other sports do and they want to bring in new fans, but eh.

Glad it's going extra games but my must watch sport will be WSL's Fiji Pro this week.

This next game is the key and I hope Nashville wins it.

As much as it would suck to miss the game, I do think you should go to the wedding AND the reception since they have already paid for your meals.

For what it is worth we did go to the wedding and reception. My husband gave our tickets to one of his clients so we made someone very happy. This guy is one of his best clients and has been going through a tough time. That made it a little easier to miss the game.

Go Preds! This has been so much fun I don't want it to end. More hockey!

Welcome to Nashville! Downtown will be crazy good. The streets will be full of CMA people and hockey fans all having a great time. Bonnaroo will also be finishing Sunday night so some of those folks might be making their way back through Nashville in time for more partying.

Come on Nashville!!

Id love to see this go to Game 7 with Nashville taking it in Pittsburgh.

 

[ddluvsdisney]

We just don't want the Penguins to win. Go PREDS!!!

 

[pooh'smate]

Lets go PREDS!!!!!

 

[bcla]

Are they really booing? That's just rude.

 

[Adelle Dazeem]

Everybody boos Bettman and I would be booing Crosby as well. The klassy part was tossing stuff on the ice when Pittsburg scored and I just saw something being thrown at the players skating with the cup.

I'm just glad this crapshow of a season is over.

 

[roliepolieoliefan]

STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS
BACK TO BACK
PITTSBURGH PENGUINS!!!!!

 

[JPPT1974]

Great job however Nashville Predators. Hope you can get in many more to come! Have a future there.

 

[kimblebee]

Ugh

I wish the League would stop kissing Crosbys butt. He's been in the league for 10 years, find someone else to idolize.

Plus, he's a whiner and is really turning into a dirty player.

I agree. And after he gets away with stuff, like throwing a water bottle on the ice, he tells the umps on the side that he didn't mean it?? Like it just slipped out of his hand onto the ice?? And yet again, no punishment for the favorite son.

I used to like him, but seeing how dirty he played this year has been an eye opener.

 

[RedAngie]

I was flipping between the game and the Tony Awards and missed the winning goal. I thought it would go into OT.

Not the result I wanted to have happen, but congrats to the Penguins. I think they won all five of their Cups on the road.

Have you ever watched what gets done to him? He's let it go on long enough and he's finally retaliating. I'm not excusing it and if he commits a penalty then he should be in the box. The NHL does a poor job protecting its best players. The NFL realized their stars are money. The NHL still likes the thug aspect of the league which I hate.
