People here were hoping the Avs would advance so we could play them.



Why Hockeytown hates the Avalanche (article). The article is actually pretty tame.

so, do you get special time outs in hockey so that teams can beat the shit out of each other, or is there still a sin-bin penalty?

They have time outs in hockey where they push a black disc around the arena.

It'll be a rough series, but usually they try to fight less in the playoffs.

Kinda funny. The radio station I listen to called a couple companies in Detroit to see if they could talk to a Red Wing fan. They probably talked to about 8 people. None of which gave a rat's ass about the Red Wings. Even found a bunch of them willing to wear Avalanche jersey's out and about. So they sent 2 jeresy's out there for the locals to wear. The more people that saw them, the more people wanted one. Just kinda interesting...

So as far as the games go...first game sucked ass. We played well until the 3rd where we fell apart. Can't believe McCarty got a hat trick. Hopefully we can come back for the second game. Can't afford to let Detroit get 2 ahead of us.

Yeah, although I guess we wouldn't have gone to OT had Roy not scored on himself, so we didn't rally deserve to win.

I used to work with an Avs fan from Michigan, I think he just liked being annoying.

Also, the game winner was a pretty goal, that was nice.

It was a good game (I was planning on saying that no matter what the outcome... really!). I am glad neither team has fallen into suckdom, that kills a rivalry.

I feel slightly cheated, and mildly aroused.

it's like sex with dad all over again.

Wings deserved to win it, there were taking more shots, and it seemed to me that they put more heart into it.

My poor little self can't take overtimes in playoff hockey. I'd like to change my vote, maybe it will go to 7 games. Admittedly, we're playing better than I thought we would. It's been a pretty good series so far.

/me goes back to biting her nails.

looks like the AV's have the initiative now. they lead 3-2 and can wrap it up if they win on wednesday at home. and we owe it all to Forsberg and Roy.

Let me just say, that I'm very disapointed in the ammount of enthusiasim for the playoffs this year. Last year we had a 5 page thread about it. This year, nothing.

The Wings Avs series has proven to be a very exciting thus far. Too bad they are still a buncha losers.
