So while they have a better record then the Sharks, the Sharks played in a much tougher division. They get to beat up on Colorado and the Oilers 12 times a year, where as there is not one gimme game in the Pacific this year.

Being a number 1 seed usually seems more a curse than a blessing come playoff time, but Vancouver has a much more solid team than the Capitals. I do agree with what you're saying about the division, though.

Beat the Habs... Check.

Thomas get another shut out... Check.

Chase Price out of the building... Check.

Campbell scoring on a 5-3 penalty kill... Holy shit that acutally happen.

7-0 and pretty much win the Northeast... check.

Tonight was a great night to be at a bar lol.

I think Roloson (probably spelled wrong but im high) was a good pick up for them. He's a solid veteran with lots of playoff experience. Not expecting any shutouts but they're a team made to score goals so if he can keep them in a couple games they might make it out of the first round. Ill definately be trying to pick up a couple tampa players late in my playoff pool. especially with st. louis, lacavalier and stamkos all going in healthy (as of now *knocks on wood*)

Short answer...yes........but I don't understand how being a fan of a team based in the U.S makes me un-patriotic??? At one point they had more Canadians playing on the team than most teams in Canada.....Jason Arnott, while no longer in New Jersey, was born, and lives in the off season, 20 minutes from where I live. Marty Brodeur, the best goalie to ever live is from Canada, a 2 time Olympic gold medalist, and a Canada Cup champion.....just because they don't play in Canada, doesn't mean there is no Canadiana about them..........

side note...fucking Leafs won last night.....come on Sabres and 'Canes..put that dagger through there heart!!

Patrick Roy is a better goalie than Brodeur....but Brodeur has had a better international career. But Roy was better in his time.

Another thing that makes you unpatriotic is your 'Boss' signature of Springstein with his born in the USA flag album cover.

I'm going for Montreal for the rest of the year, but don't have much confidence in them. They don't have the size and I think they are going to get pushed around.

Losing to Boston last night was bad....losing 7-0 was pretty damn bad. But some of that had to do with 4 players returning to the lineup and not being in sync.

I think Boston will probably win the east, which should be the number 1 reason that most people should hate them. Does anyone really want to go for overwhelming favourite?

I was just busting your chops about being unpatriotic. Tough to call someone that when their avatar is Martin Brodeur in a Team Canada jersey. Im actually a huge Black Hawks fan because Patrick Sharp was buddies with my cousin in highschool.

?

No way in hell Roy was a better goalie, Brodeur had a better international career, A/ cause Roy quit on his country and B/Marty is simply a better goalie. And Marty has a better NHL career, records don't lie.....only thing that is debateable is whether Roy is a better fighter, but I'm not even sure about that as Vernon and Osgood both kicked his ass!

As for the Boss....he's the Boss, whether he has an album cover with the U.S flag on it or the fricken Iraqi flag....he's still the Boss.....and I can't even stand his political side.
