It's even affecting your memory! You might want to get that looked at.
But lol @ the Caps point. I concede you that.

*Bruins eliminate Leafs in agonizing fashion*
*All the salt comes from fans of other teams*
So business as usual for this crew honestly. Never change you humps.
Looking forward to the games tomorrow, I feel like Caps/Pens might just change the script we are all expecting. And I honestly have no idea at all what to make of Sharks/Knights, like anything could happen there. Should be a fast game but beyond that I have absolutely no clue.

I've bet on better Caps teams and they've lost. Not this time. Pens in 7.
I think the Knights will take it. I was too slow to believe in them and I think it's about time I hop on their bandwagon. I'm excited to see how crazy the series can get with all that speed.
... we do both? Playoffs thread is for active hockey discussion. Off-season thread is for post mortems, draft lottery, etc.
Off-season threads were created ages ago. eg, 2006. Playoffs ended, new thread created. Then they were created during the playoffs. Then Manics lost his mind and created one in December.
That 2006 thread reminded me that the Pens could have drafted Backstrom or Toews. Jesus
Or Kessel...
I was impressed with how Marleau really stepped his game up. He scored some nice goals, including the first two tonight, and was probably pretty angry with how fast the lead was given back.
I like how on the first page of that thread from 2006 I call Mark Spector an idiot. I am nothing if not consistent.
Also on the first page of that thread? dem telling Forza to shut the fuck up.
Round 2 will probably be the best of these playoffs with the matchups were gonna get. Logically Preds v Jets and Bruins v Lightning should be the conference finals but we're getting them now instead.
I've devoted such a large percentage of my brain power and free time to hockey recently I'll probably take the weekend to play some games or do some other shit but I'll be jumping back into round 2 next week.

The funny thing is that Forza ended up being totally right. And:

Also came across a page where Marvie was helping out 'Hotshot' who he thought was a girl who ended up being Forza. The quotes show up as Hotshot but the username's changed to Epic Tales of Penis :D

You said Toews was a good pick for Chicago. :D
Sef a few posts later: "Toews just said he wanted to go to Chicago? He's crazy."
Accurate at the time. Hilarious in retrospect.
The dem posts during the draft are great.
"bad pick for the pens..
They should have went with Kessel. I can't believe everyone is letting him drop... but really i cant believe the PENS would let that guy pass them by. Could there be a more perfect complementary player for Crosby? I don't think so.."
"man that kessel family all has fat heads they look like ogres :lol"
What happened to Manics and Forza? I thought they joined resetera when it opened, or were those just parody accounts? I was looking forward to the whole family being back together...
Enough about the leafs! Today is the start of round 2 baby!!! Pens don't give these jerks their revenge! I mean honestly I would rather the caps win than Boston or Nashville but if the Pens lose it's gonna be "ovechkin>sid" and "the other series don't matter! Stop living in the past!" All over the place. I want that quadruple victory over them in the playoffs just to ensure these comparisons are put to bed forever
All that being said I have a bad feeling about this series and we have to tighten up a LOT from last round especially on the defensive end. Letang you're my favorite player but you gotta clean it up with the turnovers. My head says Caps in 5. My heart says let's go PENS!

the Bruins came up and won? thats amazing, even with Rask they did it yay! now i cannot wait for him to get lit the fuck up by Scheifele, Connor, Ehlers and Byfuglien in the finals. it would have been too sad if the Leafs had to take the kind of punishment the Jets can deliver.. but the Bruins can take it i'm sure, no need to feel sorry for them.
some boring series before that though. ugh i'm not sure if i even wanna watch Nashville play at all.. they have exactly ONE guy that is entertaining to watch (Forsberg), and well Rinne too if he plays like in the last SCF and completely drops the ball, haha. but i predict a boring series, Nashville is gonna turtle all the way (to their post-season grave).

Eh, we'll see. I thought the same thing last year. Still, Holtby looked strong in round 1, and Ovechkin did some scoring, so the Caps should not and will not be taken lightly by the Pens, I'm sure.
That would imply Toronto is better than us and we're just an offshoot of them
Alright then... go Bolts.
Something that really bugs me is when Jamie McLennan says Freddie Anderson has "solidified himself as an elite goaltender" .... then contradicts what he just said and says "there's no guarantee next year"
Either he's elite, or he's not. Elite comes with consistency.

I think the Perds will be hardened by their tough series and roll the Jets in 5 games. I don't want it to happen, but my irreproachable intuition suggests it.
I just hope the Preds will slowly treat us with more and more respect as the sweep goes on. Maybe force a game 5.
Its that thing we play on xbox a couple times a week and hate ourselves for
I didn't choose this fate.
I also astutely called the Leafs in 5 so you can start looking at the draft now and save yourself the heartache.
Oh my god the Athletic just posted Dom L's preview of the Jets/Preds and my heart can't take it.
I'm going to ignore all the parts about where Nashville has the advantage and just read this over and over:
Fuck me that's close you know what I'm moving to a shack up north I'll come back to civilization when it's over.
