Looking forward to a good series.Gotta root for the Habs(Canadian of course),and son is Habs fan.
Best feature of course,is all games on CBC.
Fuck,Pierre McGuire

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Teams are mirror images in so many ways. Won't be about tempo, will be all about execution & luck. Should be a great series.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

This is going to be one hell of a series!

“We’re a very rare group here that loves to be together and loves to compete,” Richards said. “I’ve played a long time in this league, and it’s special.

“And we’re going to cherish the opportunity to do something special.”

Fukcing right!!

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

I'm ready for tomorrow!!

Holy shit, the Rangers exploded!!!!! Impressive 7-2 victory. I know what Stealth is going to say though. He'll say if the cheerleader played it would have been 7-zip!

Ishall, there was no need for you to take a shot at stealth like that. Both you guys should just respect each other's difference in opinion. So what if stealth thinks that Cam Talbot is better than Henrik Lundqvist? It doesn't bother me. Whatever

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

dont care...he shouldnt be talking shit to me I never spoken to him before and guess what thats not what I said. stay out of it Doob

I agree stealth he shouldn't have said that. Just let me be the middle man. We need a more peaceful exchange.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Guys, relax!!

We won 7-2 yesterday, let's fucking enjoy it!

After reading what you guys wrote, I kind of felt bad in a way that Stealth has girl like sensitive emotions & I was going to apologize but the little girl like boy had to private message me with a nasty gram so he can go jack himself with his girlie sensitive hormones! Bottom line is Hank was spectacular and the Ranger's offense exploded & like Johnny stated, "Let's just enjoy the shit out of this success!" MSL was great! You guys really won that trade for this reason. He is clutch in playoffs! Congrats guys and girlies!

And to put it this garbage on the board there was nothing about hockey

Thats sound like sport2 garbage .....get lost loser

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

GAME 2 TONIGHT!!!!

Let's see if we can keep the momentum and strong play going and finally take a 2-0 lead this post-season!

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Series over for the Habs, Price is done for the series.
