The NHL Playoff Thread

[Youngblood]

For some reason, CFH isn't keeping this thread updated.

Oh well, I suppose I must then.

The series is currently 2-1 in favor of the Red Wings, with the PENS pulling out a 4-2 win 2 nights ago. Game is about to start here in a few minutes. This is an absolute must win game for Pittsburg in this best of 7 finals. Detroit is just too strong of a team for me to see them making a comeback after a loss tonite. So it is pretty much all on the line I believe.

Go PENS!

[Youngblood]

What Theeee Fuck is Bill Geurin doing? Bench that stupid old fart! Standing in front of his own net screening his own goalie, like he's supposed to be doing at the other end? Gotfukkindammit.

Det 2 Pens 1 after the Pens opened the scoring...

[Youngblood]

In spite of El fugtard, and a couple of back to back penalties (questionable) to the PENS, 2 goals includng one short-handed!

Pens 3 Wings 2 - 9 mins remaining in 2nd.

[Youngblood]

End of 2nd period.

Pens 4 Wings 2.

[Youngblood]

Yay!

Pens hold on to their lead and series now all tied up at 2-2.

Hope is alive...

Datsyuk will start the next game in Detroit.

Looks like it's been a good series. I haven't been able to watch any of it so far, but I thought at the outset that Pits would win this time around though I loathe them (I have since the Lemeaux - Jagr days) and I am quite fond of Det.

I laugh every time Mike Babcock speaks Great accent. CFH and Youngblood, do you sound like that when you talk?

I like hockey actually, I just never get around to watching it.

I don't watch a whole lot of hockey but this year my buddies a huge Pens fan so I have been following them in the playoffs.
Watched game 4 last night. All I have to say is the 2nd period was one of the best periods of hockey I have ever seen.
The Pens might just have the Momentum to go into Detroit and steal one there.

I imagine Youngblood and I would sound fairly different considering we live about 2,000 miles from each other.

I don't think I have much of a Canadian accent, but I've been told I have a slight one.

I've been told I sound like a Yooper. WTF?

A yooper? Like I even make fun of how those dorks sound. It is the goofy, almost Fargo-ish tone of speech of the people of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. A lot like the movie Fargo..."Ohhh ya, eh...ya see, Mike he's a good guy yaaa, he is. You be careful eh bout his brother, real trouble, dontcha know, yaaa."

So yea, first time I heard them I laughed so god damn hard, whilst jumping about pointing and laughing at the circus freaks they are, only to have all sorts of people I talk to now who live any where else, giggle and say, "You're a yooper aren't you?"

Yaaa, fell Fuk you too OumaFag, yaaaa, don't even know where ya from ehh, but 4 sure you sound lika goofball too, dontcha know.

[Youngblood]

Oh, and if you wonder what CFH sounds like, I found this clip of him, and his, ummm...room mate. You guess which one he is.

Was an amazing period of hockey, for sure Ben. Especially as a Pens fan. Basically all the stars aligned, the puck bounced right, and they did that they had to, to make this a contest.

Going to be tough in Detroit. But I am not without hope now...

I'm sure Youngblood would've kicked my ass by now if that was the case.
