good god

 

[Luis Taint]

Gary Bettman has to have the stiffest rod, these neutral playoff games have been fantastic.

 

[LogansDad]

I liked St Louis a lot more before they traded for Brave Steve and Dickwhistle Miller

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Bryz playing great tonight

 

[cshea]

The Blues are without Jay Bo. Big loss both for this game and potentially the series if it's a serious injury. 

 

[TFP]

I've heard that story as well. From a couple different people who I trust. I'm positive that's how it went down.

Yeah I've heard it a couple times but never anything definitive. Savvy wasn't well liked in the locker room ya all from what I heard and that sure didn't help things.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Putrid turnover by Brodziak, holy shit

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Wow, Reaves caught Toews with his head down- poetically takes a delay of game
 
edit: guess they called it roughing, but if it wasn't that the linesman was calling for DoG anyway

 

[cshea]

Toews concussed? 
 
Edit: Not sure I agree with that penalty on Reaves. 

 

[Catcher Block]

That fucking rule...

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Wow... maybe a 5-on-3 for delay of game here

 

[cshea]

Just don't call it. Christ. 

 

[PedroSpecialK]

LOL not a penalty, Quenneville invites the officiating crew to suck his balls.

 

[timlinin8th]

Seems like a "ehhhh that roughing call was kind of questionable, this one might be pushing it" non-call

 

[cshea]

St. Louis probably get a makeup call at some point. 

 

[Monbo Jumbo]

Seems like a "ehhhh that roughing call was kind of questionable, this one might be pushing it" non-call

They changed it to delay of game

 

[cshea]

Roy pulls Varlamov with over 3:00 left. 

 

[Luis Taint]

Tirashinko would get his ass kicked

 

[ForceAtHome]

This Chicago-St. Louis game is awesome. I thought Tarasenko was ending it with an empty net in the first OT and I definitely thought it was over when Lapierre made that save.

 

[ForceAtHome]

MIller with a huge save. We want triple OT!

 

[Luis Taint]

Miller with a great save

 

[Senator Donut]

Matt Cooke: still an ass

 

[Catcher Block]

Jesus christ.

 

[Luis Taint]

100 minutes of hockey, no problem.

 

[ForceAtHome]

Let's play two!
 
We're heading to 3OT. This has all the makings of a mental mistake/sloppy goal ending.

 

[Luis Taint]

I call off the skate goal.

 

[ForceAtHome]

How great is it that an 18-year-old is on the ice for Colorado when they need a goal in the final minute of a playoff game? Hockey is the best.

 

[ForceAtHome]

Terrible non-clear by the Wild there. Dangerous possession here from the Avs. MacKinnon looked so poised with the puck.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Holy shit - Stastny ties it

 

[ForceAtHome]

And no surprise that the Avs tie it up after that.

 

[cshea]

Colorado ties it with 13 seconds left. 
 
It's only been 2 nights. Still have 2 months of this. 

 

[ForceAtHome]

Bryz almost had that. Great effort. MORE OT!

 

[LogansDad]

Colorado ties it with 13 seconds left. 
 
It's only been 2 nights. Still have 2 months of this. 

And the B's haven't even played yet.  Hold me.

 

[Senator Donut]

All three games are at intermission. What do I do now?

:fap:  :fap:  :fap:  :fap:  :fap:

 

[TFP]

Playoff hockey is fucking awesome. Got home from skating myself and saw the last 10 mins of Chicago 2OT then saw Colorado tie it. I can't even find the sharks game on TV. This rules.

 

[ForceAtHome]

That failed clearance by Spurgeon may haunt him. He had the puck on his stick with some time and tried to outlet it to Parise but they weren't on the same page and Colorado maintained the zone.

Sharks/Ducks is on NHL Network while Chi/StL are in OT

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Yikes... McHugh just called Erik Johnson "Jack"

 

[ForceAtHome]

No correction or self-awareness on the "Jack" Johnson call either.

 

[ForceAtHome]

J-Bo back. He could be nice and rested if healthy.

 

[Catcher Block]

Jay Bo has been rebuilt, just took an overtime period.

 

[ForceAtHome]

STEEN WINS IT!

 

[cshea]

Steen. That was quick. 

 

[Luis Taint]

Yes

 

[LogansDad]

Over in St Louis

 

[PedroSpecialK]

So who had 0:26 into OT3?

 

[ForceAtHome]

Man, great touch from Ott.
