Woulden't you though? We lsot 8-2 to Edmonton and I didn't want to leave my house for a week. That was depressing

Toews for Selke, and possibly MVP!
I think if the Kings don't win the cup I won't be allowed to post here anymore, thems the rules right?
I remember some kid made a thread about how he was quitting on the Yankees because they hadn't won a championship since 2009
2009!!!! I've been lucky enough to see two of my favorite teams win the first championship in franchise history, they didn't have any when I started following them, fair weather fans confuse me
but rather than shame folks, I would like to encourage them to participate in the thread regardless of team performance, there are shoulders to cry on, surely no one knows the pain of loss as much as the Leafs fans anyway...
and Toews would be my pick for Selke and Hart, agreed
Two Van/Edm games in a row, they find a way to throw in 4 goals in just a couple minutes.
Blargh. Detroit won? No Swedes for world championships.
Classic Luongo. He's terrible, and just lucky he plays on a good enough team so his stats lie for him. With any luck, no one else will notice until we trade him.
western conference teams should be glad the Kings and Sharks finished 5-6, they tied Chicago for best home record this season, each team had 39 points, and now neither LA or SJ will have home ice advantage
and we've got the Blues, thats been a good matchup for us lately, and a little variety, don't think the Kings have faced the Blues in the first round since back when cocksucker Courtnall ran Stoll and then turtled while O'donnell beat the shit out of him

He's not terrible, everyone on the planet has a bad game from time to time. Even Marty Brodeur has a shitty game once in awhile. Saying "Hey, LOOK AT THIS ONE GAME AND BASE YOUR ENTIRE THOUGHT'S ON THIS ONE PLAYER FROM THAT ONE GAME!" is kind of incredibly short sighted.
And to those on here complaining that somehow it's only Leaf fan's talking about bad reffing? Give your head a shake. The amount of Vancouver fans I know who whine and bitch about reffing constantly is astounding. And tonight's game? Had nothing to do with reffing as to why we lost. We played a bad game, period. We came out flat and played like shit, no excuses. Same goes for the game we had against Washington and the Islanders last week. But at the same time, being a true fan means calling a spade a spade. We have had game's and points taken from us because of terrible calls. The biggest one was the game against Philly where their player literally grabbed the butt end of Reimer's stick and MOVED him and the Ref's called it a clean game winning goal. That is utterly terrible reffing.
And Greeny, I disagree with you. The call against Fraser was spot on. The Third Man rule was clearly broken by Fraser. It was a legit call by the ref to throw him out of the game. The point Fraser made very clear doing that was "I don't care if I'm gonna break the rule and get thrown out, Kadri is one of our best goal scorer's and I will protect him regardless." If anything, that just make's the team click that much more.
Damnit Colorado. Oh well, at least Minnesota won't be in it long with who they are facing.
Chicago vs Minnesota - Chicago
Anaheim vs Detroit - Detroit
Vancouver vs San Jose - the battle of the chokers...ill take Vancouver
St Louis vs LA - LA
Pittsburgh vs Ottawa - Pitt
Montreal vs Islanders - Islanders
Washington vs Rangers - Rangers
Boston vs Toronto - Toronto
Boston vs. Toronto isn't fix yet. The Bruins still have one game to play due to the postponed game against the Senators. If the win it they win their division, which means BOS - NYI and MTL - TOR.
Aside from those pairings I'd go:
Hawks vs. Wild - Hawks
Ducks vs. Wings - Ducks
Canucks vs. Sharks - I'll go on limb and take the Sharks
Blues vs. Kings - Kings
Penguins vs. Senators - Penguins
Capitals vs. Rangers - Rangers
Bruins vs. Islanders - Bruins
Bruins vs. Leafs - Leafs
Habs vs. Leafs - Leafs
Habs vs. Islanders - Habs
Bullshit, look at how many games the Leafs have won while being outshot horribly this year. I seriously don't know what the hell Carlyle was smoking last night but at the start of the game he had the lines completely fucked up. Lupul, Kadri and Kessel weren't on the same line except for the power play, but they should have stayed together and maybe they would have had a better chance at winning. JVR can stay on the second line as far as I am concerned, cause the only players who have been scoring goals rather steadily have been Lupul, Kessel and Kadri. I seriously don't know what the fuck they were doing last night but the turn overs were horrendous and cost us the game rather badly. I hope Kostka is benched for the playoffs, he is fucking horrible far too often and has had only a few decent games with us this season.
the Ducks are for real, I get the impression this is the year the Ducks and Kings finally meet in the playoffs
Here go my first round picks!
Hawks vs. Wild - Hawks
Ducks vs. Wings - Ducks
Canucks vs. Sharks - Sharks
Blues vs. Kings - Blues
Penguins vs. Senators - Senators
Capitals vs. Rangers - Capitals
Bruins vs. Islanders - Bruins
Bruins vs. Leafs - Bruins
Habs vs. Leafs - Leafs
Habs vs. Islanders - Habs
You stalking me or something dude? Kind of creepy. Also last I checked this is an open forum for anyone to come and go as they please. Every single Leaf fan on earth has been rubbing their few wins in Habs faces, then apparently you come along and expect someone not to rub in a win? Are you new to this hockey rivalry thing? Oh wait, because I do not spend day and night on here I am suddenly not allowed to post in this forum according to you. But hey, typical tough guy behind a computer act, good job!
Also the refs have cost you nothing. If your special teams are so poor that you lose every game because of a "bad call" then maybe its time to think about a change? Every team in the league deals with bad calls and many of them have the skill to overcome them just fine. Maybe that just says something about the Maple Laughs? Save your animosity for after the Leafs quick ejection from the playoffs.
