Thorny Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) Can you imagine if every team played this well? If hockey was this entertaining on a consistent basis, even in the playoffs, it's popularity would boomWas it a hook? I didn't think so, but I could be wrong. It is very clear though that the refs aren't going to be calling anything tonight You're nuts if you don't wanna see a Stars-Hawks series Initial reaction was it was, but I could be wrong.

No thanks. Call me nuts. Edited April 26, 2016 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Holy balls Crawford. This is te most entertaining period of hockey I've seen all year Initial reaction was it was, but I could be wrong. Why, so we can watch the hawks win the cup for 4th time in the last several years? No thanks. Count me crazy. The Hawks don't have to beat the Stars, Caps, Pens, or Ducks. But they make every series they're in that much more entertaining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Can you imagine if every team played this well? If hockey was this entertaining on a consistent basis, even in the playoffs, it's popularity would boom It's just not humanly possible for guys to be able to keep that pace up for 82+ games (let alone a seven game series). I don't even know if I would have the energy to watch it for 82+ games. This is exhausting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know if I would have the energy to watch it for 82+ games. This is exhausting.Maybe not physically or mentally, but I feel like coaching suffocates a lot of the fun of hockey. Let'm looseBut they would.They called their series against the Ducks last year as the hardest one they had. The Ducks play the exact type of game that frustrates the Hawks. I could also see Washington having a shot. Dallas-Chicago would be all 5-4 games, which would be awesome COME ON Edited April 26, 2016 by WildCard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorny Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 The Ducks may not even get out of the first round. Blatant trip by Ladd. No call. Fine I get it, let them play. By why did Chicago get the only PP then? Blues snake bit here on these chances.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 I've seen missed calls on both teams, I won't blame the refs up to this point, blues need to keep some O zone pressure in the 3rd and not let Hawks play their game, really this could go either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattPie Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 If you can think of a better example of an arrogant, ego-maniacal tyrant with little man syndrome....... I'd love to hear it. :P Trump? He said small-man, not small-hand syndrome. Probably due to the British propaganda that WildCard mentioned. Similar to the Marco Rubio "Trump has small hands" propaganda. :) Another one I learned about recently: eating carrots doesn't improve eyesight. It too was British propaganda, but this time WW2 and meant to cover the use of radar to locate German bombers at night. http://www.snopes.com/food/ingredient/carrots.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
