When it rains, it pours. Hawks coach had a horse in a race. Lost in a photo finish.



With Seabrook facing a likely suspension, I do not like Chicago's chances even if they're coming home for Game 3.

Come on Columbus... please get your first win in the playoffs ever?

Re: 2013/14 NHL Playoff Pick'em

Another tough loss. Hopefully being back at the UC will wake Crawford up.

You mean the entire team? Craw played fine. Our defense broke down and let players stand directly in front of him. It's hard to stop shots you can't see.

YYYYYYYYYES! They did it! Matt Calvert! Columbus wins their first ever playoff game!

Re: 2013/14 NHL Playoff Pick'em

I picked the Penguins, but I want Columbus to win. Crosby's a great player and all, but god damn do I hate the shit out of him for being a whiny pussy.

Holy shit Nathan MacKinnon. This 18 year old is practically picking apart the Wild right now.

Check out the D-man's (Spurgeon) feet as he gets deked.

Currently at 1 goal and 2 assists in game 2 AFTER SCORING 3 ASSISTS IN GAME 1.

TL;DR: 18 year old has 6 points in 5 periods of playoff hockey.
What are we doing with our lives?

Re: 2013/14 NHL Playoff Pick'em

I can't help but think that Minnesota has already knuckled under mentally, given how they reacted on that first goal when the Avs got it in their own zone. They immediately go back on their heels except for one guy who gives lip service to the idea of backchecking, he splits the wings, dekes the hell out of Spurgeon (in such a way as to cut off the other defenseman, nice!) and makes the goalie look like Swiss cheese.

That other goal didn't help, either. Gets the puck, puts it between his own legs, skates past one guy, goes around Spurgeon again and back-passes to the slot, where there is a FILTHY backhand pass to expose a yawning net.

Colorado is quickly becoming one of my favourite teams to watch. I've loved Landeskog since he was in the OHL.

Re: 2013/14 NHL Playoff Pick'em

1 goal and 3 assists for MacKinnon tonight. 3 assists in game 1.
He has 7 points from only 8 Colorado goals. He has a point on 87.5% of their goals.

Seriously, this kid is nuts! He'll be so much fun to watch in later years. Colorado, you lucky bums.

First person to say that he's the next Pavel Datysuk gets a hockey stick shoved up their ass. Blade first.
