NHL Playoffs.

So, I'm watching the Penguins-Canadiens game. Montreal is kicking the crap out of Pittsburgh in game 7 of the east semis, in Pittsburgh. Already up 4-0 five minutes into the second period. They bounced the Capitals, the best team in the league, in 7 games last round.

If the Habs win the Stanley Cup, how insufferable will Quebecois be toward the rest of Canada? :P

Not so fast, my friend. 4-2 just like that. My roommate was stunned (like me after the Cavs game yesterday :furious: ), he said the only hope was to put in 2 before the 3rd started... Just like that, eh?

Telo can testify to my desire to see Montreal win (I've put him on hold on AIM :lol: ) and I'd be so happy to see the Habs hoist the Cup again.

I've been watching all games of the Canadiens since the beginning of the playoffs. I must admit, I never expected they'd go this far...

I mean, beating the best team in the league (Washington) and the Stanley cup champions (Pittsburgh) is just WOW!

I think I have to grow a playoff beard now :lol:

I'm torn, honestly. Pittsburgh is one of my favourite American teams, and despite being a quarter French-Canadian, I'm also part of the Leaf Nation, and supporting Montreal leaves a bad taste in my mouth (not as much as the Senators, though).

But hell, they're Canadien. Go Habs Go.

If Boston can win its series, then we will have a good old Montreal-Boston ECF!

I'm glad it's the Blackhawks vs. Flyers.. I couldn't have handled a team that is basically in Mexico (San Jose) having the cup..... Do they even know what Hockey is that far south?? And I can't ever root for a Canadian team either..

I don't think I could get into NHL. Watching countries was one thing, but teams... naaaah, not my thing.

Don't knock something until you try it. Give one or two games a chance and see if it's not enough.

Tampa ( :D ) and Carolina both won the cup a few years back. So did Anaheim, which is considerably closer to Mexico than SJ.

Blackhawks in five or six sounds about right to me.

I wasn't rooting for them either! ^^

Heh, at midnight when I posted that I was thinking San Jose was San Diego.. Still, I never root for Californian teams, so my rooting interests stand..

Sed, you need to try playoff hockey. The fast pace of hockey really makes for some exciting playoff games as you think just about every shot is going in and scream ooooh or ahhhhh... Of all the different playoffs in different sports, it is definitely up there.

I do not support image only posts. Though I feel this image speaks for itself. Especially given Flumes's comments.
