Its Time, Hockey Fans!!!

Wow, looks like the # 6 seed has San Jose's number. 20 seconds into the game and BAM!!! Silenced the crowd right away. Calgary looks very tough and now they are headed home for game 3.

Speaking of game 3.....

As Floridaminnie would say "OUCH"!! It is kinda bittersweet for me because I found out I have game 6 tickets for next Thursday! The only thing that can ruin that is a sweep by either of the teams and that means Tampa is the only one that can do that now! I will bet a lot of money that the Flyers win the next game! At least I hope that happens so I can see them once again this year. I will promise to bring my camera and post pictures here after the game. Khabibulen stood on his head tonight! I have a lot of respect for that!!

HOpefully Big Dude...LIghtening will be able to finish the series here in Tampa on the 18th!

Hey Floridaminnie I have just heard rumours that if the CBA goes through Tampa may be moving to Winnipeg or Indianapolis next year. The Panthers are also rumoured to be moving to either Houston or Portland.

Where did you hear that ugly little rumor?

 

[DSNY FN]

It was on tonight on Sports centre here in Canada the mayor of Winnipeg was telling them that Tampa owners had talked to the city about moving it there.

 

[floridaminnie]

NOOOOOO!

 

[DSNY FN]

I guess they just don't have the fan base and support they need or would like in Tampa. Sad really considering the great team they have. Bring it to Canada and the team will get the support it needs and deserves to bad really They are also talking about a team coming to Hamilton Ontario about 40 minutes from my place that would be great they currently have the Hamilton Bulldogs Montreal farm team in the AHL.

 

[floridaminnie]

This town just doesn't understand hockey, which is really sad.

 

[DSNY FN]

Well you need to get out there and do something about that. I know it is all about the Bucks I bet hard to competet with that in Florida.

Too bad Tampa retracted their Free Beer with the purchase of Season Tickets. I bet Big Dude and I would've moved down there for that offer!

Go Lightning!

The San Jose - Calgary series might be one of those series were the home teams always lose. I hate those, makes for quiet buildings.

Here's to Big Dude's long series! (at least, six games!)

Here's to a home team winning at home!

 

[floridaminnie]

Lightening won at home and hopefully they'll win Saturday to keep their perfect away streak going and finish the series Tuesday at home!

BTW...I already bought my season tickets for next year before the offer was even up. Plus I don't drink beer. Don't know what they were thinking other than people in Tampa sure do drink a lot of beer.

Hi everyone! Just popping in to say hey! I haven't watched any of the playoff games in about two weeks! Between my trip and the craziness I came back to at work, I just haven't had the time.

Hope everyone is doing well!

NOOOOO! DH and I were watching the game last night and talking about selling the house and moving to the Tampa area in a few years....I could definitely see myself doing that if the the Lightning stay there, I could still have my hockey fix all winter, be near WDW...warmer climate ........ !!

 

[Big Dude]

BOOOOOYA!!!!! Oh YES!!!! Big Dude is going to Game 6! I just hope it's an elemination game for the BOLTS!!! I had to work last night so I missed both the Flyers game and my beloved NASCAR race. I had my DS tape both for me and made extra sure not to see or hear any broadcasts on the way home so I watched the Flyers first and lo and behold I was very happy!

Then I watched the NASCAR race and Dale Earnhartd Jr. won! Yes that's the guy in my siggy! Saturday has been a very very good day for me!!!!

NASCAR and Playoff hockey with the FLYERS? Big Dude is in HEAVEN!!!

Just checking in. Great game yesterday afternoon.

GO FLYERS!!!!!!!!!

 

[Big Dude]

What has gotten into those SHARKS? They are playing with a vengance! It seems that the road teams rule this series which might not be good for the Sharks should it go 7 games. I have a feeling they will win tonight unless the Flames find a way to play an entire solid game without those momentary lapses (last night's second period barrage).

Now, if only my FLYERS can take one more game down in Tampa, I'll be a happy camper.

GAME ON

[minniecarousel]

We're "giddy" here in the SF Bay Area (or should I say, SJ Bay Area!?) At least the people who are hockey fans are excited! We gotta win tonight at home!

GO SHARKS!!!

 

[Big Dude]

Big Dude....dream on.

For my Flyers.........First this............

Then this..........

Will the DREAM live on? Tonight may tell the tale!!!!
