Best beards of the Stanley Cup playoffs

Just think the worst beards starts and ends here:

History is all there is until new history is written. You're the one who posted that cocky BS "get ready to get fucked up". I say, Caps have a LOT to prove come playoff time or its just ANOTHER great regular season

oh well Caps fans, new history is written, and it isn't good

On the plus side, I could see Garth Snow doing a lot of crazy shit this summer so that'll be fun. Wouldn't shock me if Ryan Miller wound up there, you've gotta think he's going to finally get a star winger to play with JT, Hamonic needs to be dealt with, Nielsen is a UFA as well...should be fun.

I knew immediately who liked this post.

Washington was eliminated last night. They're quickly becoming like Detroit of the mid 90's. Good regular season team that can't do anything in the playoffs.

Anything more than we once won Cups? ...No?

LMMMO.

My goodness, I am going to have fun quoting some old posts in this thread!

As long as they don't become the late 90s / 00s Red Wings. That would be horrible.

Not much new about a second round Caps exit.

Not much new about a second round Caps exit.

nothing new about it, unsure how certain fans could ever be over confident with that club

I still find it crazy that the Canadians had zero teams in the playoffs, where as Nashville and two Florida teams made it, two of those are still in it. I think it's probably best for the game if the Leafs, Canadians, and Canucks make the changes necessary to make the playoffs and start to contend for Lord Stanley's Cup. The Flames and Jets can both disappear for all I care, and the Sens seem very 'Meh' to me.

For the Conference Finals, I hope that it's Nashville vs Dallas, with a finals of Nashville vs Lightning. I went to 2 Blackhawks games this year, one in Nashville, the other in Tampa, so I'd be thrilled to see my two closet Franchises fight it out for the Cup.

All I care about though is that the Blues do not win it.

I do like how Lucas didn't even mention the Oilers, however

I knew this would crash and burn and cause a firestorm.

Well damn, there I go, I thought I had forgotten one but was trying to not have to double check. Whoops. I have nothing against them so I'll put them in the group that I hope gets their shit together.

I just hate that we've supplied two franchises to Canada, and while am too young to remember the Atlanta Flames, I had ST's to the Thrashers and I just can't find it in me to cheer for the damn Jets.

lol - I actually lived and worked in Atlanta for a year and a half and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. It's a pretty neat city with lots of things to do, Buckhead has a lot of cool restaurants and nightclubs and loved heading down to Savannah as well. Besides, if it wasn't for Atlanta, we wouldn't have the Flames.

Yeah, I do like the Alternate Captain logo the Flames do to remember Atlanta -

And then I see things like this and I just get mad/sick all over again -

It's too bad the Thrashers couldn't rid themselves of GM Don Waddell, he was the main reason that team continued to flounder and eventually the fans stopped showing up as they realized no progress was being made.

It's too bad about the entire ownership of the Thrashers as well.

Now I'm stuck with the Atlanta Gladiators in the ECHL, where the last game I went to about 2 months ago consisted of the same Center getting TWO breakaways only to slip on both accounts, getting not one shot on goal.

It's too bad the Macon Whoopee aren't still around, love that name.
