As much as I hate the Hawks, I gotta say I hate the Bruins more than anything right now. I hope they get demolished in 4.

Even if they do get demolished in 4 at least they'll score more than 2 goals. One player on the Bruins outscored your entire sorry team. What a bunch of pansies.

come in my shame circle
I want the Bruins to win so I can really see how many people I know genuinely believe the Leafs would have won the Cup if they won game 7. :lol

I want Chicago to win. Fuck Boston, they beat my Rangers.

Probably the juciest win for me this series. I grew up in CT so people were either Boston or NY fans.

Got to talk a lot of shit :)



Also, this is still probably the best gif from the playoffs.

Series will come down to goaltending. Rask and Crawford are good but neither have won anything yet.

Also, Kane is so deadly when he cares.

Did anyone notice Dustin Brown in the playoffs when he wasn't trying to take someone's head off? 4 points in 18 games.

Hopefully Bylsma and Fleury both return:

PITTSBURGH -- As the Pittsburgh Penguins embark on an offseason that figures to include significant changes, coach Dan Bylsma insists the goalie position won't be one of them.

Bylsma called Marc-Andre Fleury "a franchise goalie ... this franchise's goalie" on Sunday, one month to the day after Tomas Vokoun made his Penguins postseason debut in place of Fleury as Pittsburgh's starter.

Fleury started every playoff game the Penguins played since being taken with the No. 1 overall draft pick in 2003 until Bylsma opted to go with Vokoun for Game 5 of a first-round series against the New York Islanders. Fleury played just 43 minutes the remainder of the playoffs, fueling speculation he might be traded or bought out of his contract this summer.


Not so, Bylsma said Sunday.

"Marc-Andre Fleury, I'm not sure the definition of 'franchise goalie,' (but) he's our No. 1 goalie," Bylsma said two days after the Boston Bruins completed a stunning sweep of the Penguins in the Eastern Conference finals. "He's a No. 1 goalie for this franchise and he will be going forward.

"We were in a situation where Tomas Vokoun went into net and won the third and fourth games of a series for us and continued to play in our net. But Marc-Andre Fleury is a guy who's going to come back to our team and he's going to be the No. 1 goalie. He's going to be the franchise goalie. He's going to be this franchise's goalie."

So what options are in place for NHL-GAF to share their reactions when GAF eventually blows up? I figure nhl steam gaf could use steam chat, but I know not everyone is there.

Also, I'm predicting Bruins in 6. :( Another prediction where I hope I'm wrong, but the Bruins are a scary scary team right now. They dismantled the offensive power of the Penguins, so it's not unexpected that they do the same to the Hawks. I think it comes down to a big series from the Hawks D to shut down the Bruins Offence and really hope for the depth players to shine.

The Norris just means Montreal will have to pay him an extra million a season starting next year. Should have locked him up long term in January.

I dont think you'll find too many in Montreal complaining about paying Subban to big money, but yea they could have had him cheaper.

Hey Quick / Acid, you both read a lot of comics right? I just got an iPad and there's a really nice comic app on it, I've never read any but was thinking of checking some out, you guys have any recommendations for a first timer ?

Bruins start the Stanley Cup Finals tomorrow, the Red Sox won a 14 inning epic and are in first place in the AL East.

What are they talking about on the radio?

Tim Tebow.

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUU!

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.

Acid and I will probably tell you to read Hawkeye by Matt Fraction. It's a standalone series, so there's no need to know any previous storylines or something. It's not long, since it only started last year, so you'll blow by this pretty fast.

My default go-to recommendation has always been Y: The Last Man. 60 issues, so it's a pretty hefty read.
