Jaimoe Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Great game! Stillman hung Staal out to dry with that last cross-ice pass. Can't wait for game six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Yup. That was awesomely awesome. The third period/overtime was insane. Fuck, I love hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 And I love that the Oil didn't lose on two Greene-caused power-plays. I felt bad for the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought some of the hooking calls, on both teams, were bad too. I'm happy, for now, that the series didn't end with a power play goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peipunk Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Wow, I didn't think they had it in them, but I was loving it. Go Oilers! Bring the cup back to Canada! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggest Fan Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 I have never been over in these hear parts before but I wanted to say that I would love to see .ca team win the cup.A question did the labor agreement deal with the money issue between USA and Canadian teams.

Jaimoe Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 A question: Did the labor agreement deal with the money issue between USA and Canadian teams? quote]Good question. I think the revenue sharing linked to Canadian team hand-outs was dropped in the current deal. The cap made that inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave-O Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 Game 7, Cup finals, does it get any better than this?Right now I'm thanking gawd that NBC is showing the finals. Who would have thought that when booking a trip to the States on JUNE FRICKIN' 19TH that the playoffs would still be going.(side note - NBC's Emerick, Davidson and McGuire between the benches is OWNING CBC's coverage. I've only been switching to CBC for the intermissions.)I ran into a pile of Oiler fans, including the orange tuxedo dudes, this morning at Pearson at Customs. Go Oil!

I've only been switching to CBC for the intermissions.) I couldnt agree more after flipping around last night. Harry Neale and Bob Cole have got to go. Who would have guess that NBC would ever own the CBC coverage?????? Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 I noticed that NBC was way faster with the replays too.I think Bob and Harry take a lot of stuff for granted and don't bother to explain the game. I feel like I learn something when I listen to the NBC announcers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 For me, it is the clear-cut mistakes that disturb me and makes me wonder what the hell they are watching. For example, the puck was deep in the Carolina end. Bob Cole says".........and no one is in to forecheck for the Oilers." JUST AS ethan moreau is nailing Brett Hedican behind the goal line and picking up the loose puck. That shite is totally unforgivable and happens with far too much frequency. Its as if CBC exec's think their audience is too stupid to not notice.I dont know, maybe they are right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 I love how the BBC reports the time of the goals as if the game were a soccer match:Carolina took a 2-0 lead in Raleigh with powerplay goals from Aaron Ward (1:26) and Frantisek Kaberle (24:18). But the Oilers fought back to score through Fernando Pisano in the 42nd minute to keep their hopes alive.But a Justin Williams empty-net strike on 59 minutes sealed victory for the Hurricanes in front of their own fans. Stanley Cup glory for Hurricanes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I'm happy to report that the Canes win made the front page of USA Today. The lowballing pigfuckers on ESPN have been making fun of the Stanley Cup ratings all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
