Dallas Stars vs. Anaheim Ducks Playoffs *Round One*

[Nightcrawler]

quick question will, did they give out green shirts at the game? I know they gave out towels, but the arena, although full, still looked really bland. The waving towels were nice, but I saw more white and grey then green. I was really hoping that every seat would be green and the towels would be green just to sorta establish an identity and a look. It was definitely rockin in that arena, but I think it wouldve been good for the tv to make it freakin ireland in there

A lot of the spoiled rich people only go to the games to see and be seen. Wearing the green T-shirts would cover their fancy outfits and defeat the purpose of going.

Nope, they just gave out the white towels. The majority of the crowd was wearing green though. Some fans had on white jerseys or the old black ones, so those account for a lot of the white and black you saw.

While that's true for the regular season games, everyone gets into the spirit for the playoffs. Had they passed out green t-shirts, everyone would have been wearing them (including the "spoiled rich people").

Getzlaf, Robidas, and Selanne (not really that impactful but still) are all out for game 4. So I'm sorta thinking this is a MUST win. Force game 6 back on home ice and pressure them to win in LA

 

[Justinkm83]

Is Getzlaf out?

 

[terpsfball09]

ya he's out. so we gotta fuckin win. they're gonna target 14 and 91, so we just gotta keep playing our game and as long as they arent playing theirs we should be fine.

 

[Justinkm83]

Just heard while pisssing tht Getzlaf was out. It's already loud in here

 

[terpsfball09]

must win game. Now, we can't let Perry or Cogliano beat us.

 

[terpsfball09]

val's playing like dogshit right now. i dont like him very much on the first line. looks completely out of sync

 

[gregrey972]

couldn't agree more so...this definitely sets up as a must win game and opportunity to sting a team that feels it can sit its best player...unless he is really hurt badly from all the abuse he took in the last game...its kind of a slap in the Stars' face.

 

[terpsfball09]

They got the first, but as I said earlier, I truly believe goal number 2 is the most important one in playoff hockey. Anaheim is starting to control the game, so for the final 5 minutes of the period we have to out skate them and piss them off

 

[gregrey972]

ouch...that 1st period was a kick in the teeth

 

[terpsfball09]

Will must not be at this game.

 

[terpsfball09]

I never thought I'd say it, but our second line is STRONG. REALLY strong. Better than Anaheims. Its not that talented of a line, but they are so fast and get teams out of position and out of their gameplan that its almost impossible to defend.

I knew what the Ducks were going to do there at the end. Get rears kicked so they decide to get into a wrestling match. Hey, we are getting into their head.

 

[terpsfball09]

If they wanna turn it into a wrestling match, they wont make it to 7 games. That's right down our alley. Pray that's what they do

I'm not even really a fan of hockey but I was just thinking the same thing. Dallas seems to have the mental edge IMO.

 

[TheRangerDude]

That goal by Eakin was purty... hopefully they can take this momentum back to Anaheim on Friday. That should be a very exciting game

Great sport, especially in chippy games like these

 

[Justinkm83]

What a game! I might just have to get tickets to game 6 also.
