That Henrik purse-slap on Brown video is hilarious. Looked like a poofter fighting over a glory hole in the Dufferin "men's" room.

6-0 Coil in the 2nd... the Wild are a joke. I guess the best scenario now is a regulation win by LA tomorrow to lock up a Van/SJ series. The best alternative to be sure, but the Sharks are a skilled and hungry team that hates us -- so it's definitely less favourable than the Wild would've been. Oh well, it's not like anything ever happens easily for Vancouver...

The good news there would be that the Sedins play great against them, their core is aging, Niemi sucks, and they've lost a lot of their push-back.

Wow, Craig Leopold, nice investment, bud...I'm sure he didn't expect a Stanley Cup in the first year, but a bitchslapping at home with a playoff spot on the line; yeah, wow, any buyer's remorse there Craig.

The very reason we'd like to play the Wild is the reason these donuts may not even make the show.

Looks like SJ or LA. I think I'm more concerned with St. Louis than either of those two, but regardless, first round is going to be a dogfight, tossup. Would be nice to get some revenge against LA though...

Yeah, I'd rather play Anaheim in round 2 while the Hawks play the Kings.

Ya I guess its official, either LA or SJS based upon who wins their game. I hope Minny loses their last game, what a disgrace. Would look good on them for sure.

Well, round one will be a tough one. Hope they can reach the switch to turn it on.

Whoever plays St louis is going to get bruised big time.
LA/ St. L would be a great match up :twisted:

Got to be rooting for the Kings to beat Sharks..
We match up well against SJ.. Sedins can score much easier than
against LA or more balanced teams. Bye bye Wild..

I would like nothing better than to see Minnie miss the playoffs. Detroit looks like they won't be denied (again :wow: ) and Columbus has been lights out for the last two months. I'm a Canucks fan, but I'm a hockey fan too, and Columbus (and their fans) deserve to be there (and if they give the Hawks a hard time in the first round, even better :mrgreen: ) Minnie are garbage right now.... if make it in the Hawks will blow them out in four, and who (other than a Chicago fan) wants to see that?

Detroit up 3-0 looks like they will make it.

Minny up by 1 end of second and Columbus is in a tie with 5 minutes to go. Minny will know before the end of their game what they need to get in. Could be over in the next few minutes.

All down to Minny needing 2 points to get in. Anything less and Columbus makes it. What a great run for them to come from so far back. Gotta cheer for Colorado to get the win now. I'm OK with at OT or SO win. Kinda sad to see Minny miss out by a point :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Speaking of the leaves what happened to them tonight? Reimer pulled?
