MONTREAL AND CHICAGO USED TO HAVE 2 OF THE 3 LOUDEST RINKS IN THE LEAGUE ALONG WITH THE RANGERS AND MAYBE BOSTON . I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS THE SAME WITH THEIR NEW ARENAS.

I checked out a fight the other night and a hockey game broke out lol...that use to be a popular saying around here...as bad as it seems, it use to be a lot worse...I'd rather see them take a couple jabs and go back to the game than to have ejections and meetings and delaying the game even longer...it's gonna happen in this sport, it always has and always will, as long as it's controlled and confined...not pre-meditated...
The playoffs is the best hockey you'll see, that's why I don't think there's a safe seed to be had...home rink advantage is the best one can hope for, and I believe that can make a difference...
Montreal and Chicago does have a nice ring to it... |

I dont think it needs to be there, but the speed and energy that the game is played with, its going to happen. to take it out, you have to take the game down a notch

HEY YOU!...HOW ABOUT THOSE HAWKS!...YES,MAR.31 INDEED,WHO KNOWS,MIGHT EVEN TRY TO GO TO THAT ONE....GREAT GAME LAST NIGHT BETWEEN MONTREAL AND OTTAWA...I'M
ACTUALLY GLAD OTTAWA GOT THE POINT FOR SENDING IT TO EXTRA TIME...I WORK IN OTTAWA,SO I HAVE A BIT OF A SOFT SPOT FOR THEIR TEAM...DON'T GET ME WRONG HOWEVER,I STILL WANTED MY HABS TO WIN...AS FOR EARLY FAVOURITES,I WOULDN'T GET TOO CAUGHT UP IN THAT RON...AS ALWAYS IN EVERY PLAYOFF YEAR,A TOP SEED OR TWO WILL FALL BY THE WAYSIDE EARLY ON...IF THE BRUINS WIN THE EAST,DON'T BE SHOCKED TO SEE THEM ELIMINATED IN THE FIRST ROUND,IT COULD VERY WELL HAPPEN,THE EAST IS VERY SOLID...A LOT OF TEAMS CAN JUMP UP AND BITE A TOP SEED IN THE ASS RIGHT AWAY.
ALSO HOW MANY TEAMS ARE A KEY INJURY OR TWO AWAY FROM NOT HAVING A CHANCE AT ALL?........OHHHH WHY NOT?...HOW ABOUT MONTREAL vs CHICAGO IN THE FINAL?... BEAUTY!....EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH????.....

+/- is a goals for and against ratio. for individuals its goals scored by their team vs by the other team, while they are on the ice, even strength. I think that for a team it is the same, but they might do it without taking out the goals with a man advantage.

No loss is a good loss, but you can have a really bad loss (missed opportunities and whatnot), they just don't have good power play schemes!!
I am curious about 1 statistical category...how do they formulate the +/- ???

Rangers 3 Blackhawks 2
Scorpion...what's the percentage of times a team with a 2 man advantage are suppose to score a goal?? We went 0 for 4/5??
It's always exciting to watch an original 6 game though. I think they should play more often than what they do. |

GREAT GAME BETWEEN ISLANDERS AND RANGERS AS USUAL. THE RANGERS WIN 2-0 ON TWO MISTAKES. THE ISLANDERS ARE PLAYING HARD BUT ARE JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH YET. THE YOUNG KIDS ARE GETTING GOOD EXPERIENCE ON THE PK AND PP AND ARE GROWING WELL. LOOK OUT FOR US NEXT YEAR. |
