johnson. 678 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Its incredible how the Ducks have only had the lead in the last three games for only eleven and a half minutes. Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,858 Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) Guess the Jets didn't read my post in the sports section of a forum for a violent video game. I'll say it again. The Ducks do not lose close games. Not an exaggeration. Their record in one goal games over the last three years is something like 60-6-20. One... ONE... Of those losses came this season. The only way to beat the Ducks is to score two or more goals than them. Edited April 25, 2015 by darthYENIK Link to post Share on other sites
johnson. 678 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The Jets have the greatest fans of any sports team with out a doubt, even though the Ducks sweeped them that send off the crowed gave them last night gave me goose bumps.http://streamable.com/71z3 Link to post Share on other sites

darthYENIK 8,858 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 The Ducks have handled Calgary like nothing. Calgary just isn't doing much. The Ducks weren't looking great either, but the Flames were horrible in the first two games. I doubt this is going to be a sweep, but if things keep going the way they're going, it'll be done in 5.

Ryan 3,953 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 What a comeback by Calgary last night, especially after getting screwed over by the situation room calling their goal mid way through the third no goal when it clearly was a goal. Tonight is do or die for Montreal. I'm hoping they can get back in the series but it's gonna be tough against Tampa. Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,858 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 What a comeback by Calgary last night, especially after getting screwed over by the situation room calling their goal mid way through the third no goal when it clearly was a goal. Tonight is do or die for Montreal. I'm hoping they can get back in the series but it's gonna be tough against Tampa. It was not clearly a goal. I don't get how people can believe the "situation room" doesn't know what they're doing or makes bad calls, or conspires to let teams win. The angle everyone says is proof it was over the line is deceiving. Top down is the only angle that matters on that call, and it showed nothing. Link to post Share on other sites
QuackinAColdOne 1,619 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Montrea coming back like this along with New York is what gives me hope considering I have them both winning the series in my bracket. I got Montreal winning over chi-town in the cup and man it's getting close. I bet money with my coach for the Rangers and caps series and I still have $120 on the line in the bracket Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan 3,953 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 The Mike Babcock sweepstakes is finally over. He just signed a eight year, $50 million contact with the leafs to be the new head coach. Babcock makes $8 million in the first two years of the contact. To put that in comparison, the next highest paid coach is Chicago's Quenneville at $2.75 million. Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,858 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) He's a great coach. I wonder how long it takes for the Toronto media to turn him into the devil. That place chews coaches up and spits them out. Also he's the second coach to go to Toronto who has coached the Ducks to the finals. Edit: and I forgot they had Ron Wilson, so he's the third straight coach the Leafs have hired that have coached the Ducks. Edited May 22, 2015 by darthYENIK Link to post Share on other sites

El Dildo 14,386 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 most of Tampa Bay's lineup will be intact next season. they should be a strong contender for the foreseeable future, but man, Chicago is officially dynastic. Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,858 Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yeah, the Hawks just can't be phased. They deserved this. A shame Stammer didn't get his cup, but he's still pretty young. Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 3,953 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) One month in to the season and it's never been a better time to be a Habs fan. Four solid lines that are consistently scoring night in and night out combined with rock solid defense and goaltending (even without Price). 1st in the league standings (if they keep up the current pace, they're on track for 138 points) 1st in goals for 3rd in goals against 1st in goals for/goals against % 3rd ranked PP 3rd ranked PK Edited November 8, 2015 by Ryan Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,858 Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 One month in, and I'm only just this past week enjoying hockey. Pretty much the opposite of the Habs, the Ducks just were terrible until last week. Then they snapped out of it. Link to post Share on other sites
Redketman 20 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I know people talk about it all the time, but what has happened with Sidney Crosby? Only 10 points in 19 games and minus 7. Compare that to Patrick Kane, Tyler Seguin and Jamie Benn who has 30, 28 and 27 points respectively.. Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 3,953 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Montreal just lit up Henrik Lundqvist for five goals at home. So much for all the talk about how Lundqvist is a lock for the Hart,Lindsay, and Vezna awards. Edited November 26, 2015 by Ryan Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,858 Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Great All-Star Game(s), eh? The new format really was exciting. Scott got the MVP, but my boy John Gibson is the winner of my heart. Edit: and I thought it would be the other way around. Edited February 1, 2016 by darthYENIK Link to post Share on other sites
General Scrotum 1,010 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) The most entertaining All-Stars Game I've seen of all I've seen. The players actually wanted to win the tournament - unlike all other previous years. Loved the support the fans showed to John Scott throughout the whole thing and he proved he could actually play and keep up to the 3-on-3 (which was his first time playing 3-on-3) unlike some people thought he would just slow down the game and not be able to keep up. Knowing the NHL though - that's probably the first and last time something like this will happen - a player like John Scott playing in the All-Stars Game, I mean.
