    I thought there were a couple of bad no calls today in the Canucks game, the blatant Bolland slash that snapped Sedin's stick in half and, more notably, the hit against Bieksa behind the net. Basically the same hit that Torres put on Seabrook yet there was no roughing or charging call. The guy dishing the hit (I forget who to be exact) left his feet, went for the head...and no call, I thought that was rough.....although the refs were probably thinking OT and "let them play" and all that jazz.

    There were plenty of no calls throughout the game, and the previous few games to. Kane was getting his ass kicked by cheap ass hits the whole game and none where called.

    Even if they win Tuesday, Nashville will cut threw them like a hot knife threw butter.

    I agree with you, but the no calls have favoured the Hawks moreso than the Canucks. For example,

    I mean, you can't expect the refs to hand you a game but the difference in penalties is pretty skewed.

    Maybe, maybe not. But as a fan, I really hope I get to find out by watching and just speculate about it!

    No doubt about it. But, I like kicking dogs while they are down.

    I really dont know who I want to win. On one hand I dont like Chicago, on the other hand I like home ice advantage.

    You should go with the hand that likes home ice.

    Game 7, this should be epic...I am pretty nervous. It's only round one but it's pretty intense.

    Corey Crawford is legit....I thought he was going to steal this one for the Hawks.

    Yeah, Crawford was fucking amazing. He was making so many fantastic saves. There was nothing he could of done for the game winner. I don't even remember who scored, all I remember was two failed clearing attempts. I feel sorry for Campoli, hopeing to god they resign him. Fucking fantastic D by him all season long.

    It was a great season, Lu got his W. Lets see how he does in round 2. Looked a bit shaky during the game, he was probably shitting himself thinking "Not again!"

    I went six for eight in round 1. I wish It was seven for eight, but you know you can't win every series against the Canucks. Gotta lose one.

    ANOTHER great series with Boston and Montreal.

    Am I the only one who can't stand the Bruins? Wow.

    How can anyone hate the Habs? I wish my team had 30,000 Stanley Cups.
