It was pretty nice, although the people that were questioning if this goal was better than Ovechkin's are way off! Zetterberg just got lucky with it, and the goalie had no clue where the puck was or what was going on.
As for the Ovechkin goal, that was solid gold.
I never quit as Toronto and I was never informed that I was Toronto. In fact, I was never even informed that I was in this league until someone told me that, according to the site, I was Toronto. I guess not anymore...?
Sorry I have been away and haven't played any of my games in any leagues in a while.
I should be on on Friday night and almost all weekend except Saturday night to play games.
I found the predictions I had made a few days ago and here they are:
Round 2 Predictions
EAST
(1) Montreal vs. (6) Philly
habs win in 6 but tempted to say 7
(2) Pittsburgh vs. (5) Rangers
Rangers in 6.. yeah i know I am going against the Pens again
WEST
(1) Detroit vs. (6) Colorado
gonna be intense, Avs in 7
(2) SJ vs. (5) Dallas
Sharks in 5
If only Alex Semin was about half a foot closer to the net when the puck came right to him with an empty net.. but still that was an absolutely TERRIBLE call. Game 7! ot! How stupid can the refs be?!
And yeah, what Icestorm said, Malkin is better than Crosby.
I was at that game on Saturday and even though the score was very lop-sided, it will definetely be the most memorable Canucks game I have ever been to. The crowd was amazing and showed a lot of class, as well as Trevor Linden. The best thing was, Naslund never got cheered. He actually got booed
The one thing I like about the "new" NHL is all of those divisional games at the end of the season. It made the playoff race and division races that much tighter.
I like to use timeouts when I need my players to be clutch in the final moments of a game or period. Kind of like in the real NHL.
Also, I had absolutely NO CLUE that timeouts revitalized injured players. That could have helped me out a lot
WPG 7, VAN 8 OT
VAN 4, WPG 5 OT
Great games sungod, those were unbelievable.
Here are the save states just so everyone can see how intense our games were. Tons of key saves too.
*edit* it won't let me upload the save states but I still have them.
hehe well Ottawa has played very well this year against the Pens so I think maybe they can pull an upset in that series.
And no I am not putting money on that series, just because it is too unpredictable. But some of the other ones I am.
Ok hopefully my luck will be better in the playoffs
My Predictions

(1) Montreal vs (8) Boston
Montreal win series 4-1
(2) Pittsburgh vs (7) Ottawa
Ottawa wins series 4-2
(3) Washington vs (6) Philadelphia

(4) New Jersey vs (5) NY Rangers
NY Rangers wins series 4-2

(3) Minnesota vs (6) Colorado
Colorado wins series 4-3
(4) Anaheim vs (5) Dallas
Anaheim wins series 4-2
GO CAPS!!
Wow what an incredible story for the Washington Capitals. Halfway through the season they are 14th place in the East, and now they won their division. I can't wait to see them play in the playoffs. Go Caps!!
I think we all do. Man, that would be such a sight. Ovechkin, Semin, Backstrom, Huet, all in the playoffs, they could go far. The score is 1-1 at the moment.
GO CAPS GO!
