Ducks win game 2! For some reason I think the series with the Canucks is comparatively harder than the series with Ottawa..

JFC · « **Reply #761 on:** May 31, 2007, 08:33:28 PM »

^ Ugh, such a heartbreaker. It's so damn frustrating that the Sens aren't playing man-to-man, considering that the goal that the Ducks scored last night likely woudn't have occured if they had been. Because they were playing zone, Alfredsson let the guy go RIGHT past him, completely untouched.

There is still a lot of hockey left. Still, the Ducks are in a good position! It seems like a long layoff between series is never a good thing.

Anaheim will get the cup tonight!

I'm gonna skip a class because of it, so they better win this time!

JFC · « **Reply #764 on:** June 06, 2007, 05:30:00 PM »

What if they don't? Will you have to skip another class to see the next game?

Fortunately it's gonna be weekend, but I'll have hangover then, so I prefer Ducks winning today.

Looking good this far!

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is official.

Your 2006-2007 Stanley Cup Champions, The ANAHEIM DUCKS!!!

Personally satisfying for me because of the presence of Randy Carlyle, Teemu Selanne, and Rob Niedermayer, all of whom made HUGE impacts on the hockey scene here in 'Peg Sheety.

EDIT: Conn Smythe Winner is Scott Niedermayer!

ctz · « **Reply #767 on:** June 07, 2007, 03:18:51 AM »

The right team wins at last!

I'm especially happy for Selanne, whose career seemed to be over already. Although he had that desperate hop to Colorado to play for free just to get a chance to win cup.

I would have given Conn Smythe to Giguere, but Niedermayer wasn't bad choice either!

THUNDERDUCK · « **Reply #768 on:** June 07, 2007, 12:31:18 PM »

Must be the uniform change...

Congrats to the Ducks on winning the Stanley Cup.

It's been so long since I posted as usual, but CONGRATS TO 2007 STANLEY CUP CHAMP: THE ANAHEIM DUCKS!!!

I think Daigong said Buffalo in Game 7 and he's usually right, but you were wrong! Hehe
Being a Ducks fan for 9 years, it was soo thrilling to have the cup in Anaheim where only Anaheim City cares:lol:
As ctz said, I'm really happy for Selanne who had to go through so much crap and being one of the top hockey player face icon with losing teeth, slash in the face, bruised eye, etc.

MVP should have been Giggy but who cares, he already got one. At least it went to someone who only won it 4 times now

I will be attending the Ducks Champ Parade in Anaheim so if anyone needs some Stanley Cup Gears let me know!

JFC · « **Reply #771 on:** June 09, 2007, 06:46:27 PM »

^ Be sure to get plenty of pics dude! And if you get a chance to get some autographs to try and get them to so a celebrity shout-out!

ctz · « **Reply #772 on:** June 10, 2007, 02:16:00 AM »

Does hockey interest general people in Anaheim enough for the parade? They interviewed random people on TV and only one knew the Stanley Cup finalists

btw, Wild signs Backstrom, no surprise there.

daigong · « **Reply #773 on:** July 01, 2007, 11:40:53 PM »

Phew...after being emo for a good month

here's my comments: Congrats Anaheim!!

esp. to ol' Todd Marchant and Selanne, and Jiggy >>> Iggy

Just a shame, ya know. ... taiyou is prolly the only person that cares in Anaheim. With all these American teams winning the Cups...

How 'bout that Hall of Fame. Mark Messier. Ron Francis, Al MacInnis and Scott Stevens. No question. Again Glenn Anderson got ignored.

....just been following the free agency wire and something shocking dropped...

OILERS TRADE CAPTAIN JASON SMITH

Along with Lupul for Joni Pitkanen, left winger Geoff Sanderson and a third round draft choice in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft.
http://oilers.nhl.com/team/app?articleid=326892&page=NewsPage&service=page

Dick Tarnstrom and Denis Grebeshkov?? Hmm...Sanderson?

Briere for 52 Million 8 years?? Philly is on crack.

THIS JUST IN:

Sportsnet.ca has learned that the New York Rangers have signed free agent rival Scott Gomez to a seven-year deal worth over $50 million, as well as Chris Drury

http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/article.jsp?content=20070701_162329_4180

FUCK LOWE!!! Better get Smyttie back for 45 MILLION!

daigong · « **Reply #774 on:** July 02, 2007, 07:44:03 AM »

New Salary Cap era?? WTF. Colorado signs Ryan Smyth, Hannan. St. Louis grabbed Kariya. At least the Leafs get another overachiever in Jason Blake. Penguins got D Sydor & Sykora

BUT WTF!?

Citing Team 1260 radio in Edmonton, TSN of Canada reported early Monday morning that the Oilers have signed unrestricted free-agent center Michael Nylander.

JFC · « **Reply #775 on:** July 04, 2007, 06:11:17 AM »

Biggest shock to me as far as the player movements go is definitely the two big scores that the Rangers got, Smyttie going to Colorado, and Anderson getting screwed (yet again) out of the HOF.

Curse you HOF voters!

daigong · « **Reply #776 on:** July 04, 2007, 07:27:34 AM »

You know what's crazy...this whole thing of Michael Nylander & agent & the Caps tampering? not honoring a done deal?

This offseason, like I was yapping with KT is FUCKIN AWESOME!!

At least the oilers picked up Garon. See ya Jussi

daigong · « **Reply #777 on:** July 08, 2007, 07:07:22 AM »

ROFL. KLowe sending SHOCKWAVES trying to sign Thmoas Vanek away from Buffalo. Then they match and swear revenge. Just what the Oilers need. Lowe is so slick like the grease on his head, sending a message "You fuckin guys signing these average players for LONG TERM BIG BUCKS. DUMBASSES!"

What every kid needs under their christmas tree - A REAL SIZE REPLICA STANLEY CUP!!

^ Damn, it comes with the gloves and everything!

daigong · « **Reply #779 on:** August 06, 2007, 02:31:57 PM »

DAMN. this off season has been a fuckin roller coaster. Losing Smyth, and then getting SPITED by him. I'll see you in HELL! Getting denied Nylander. Rika cries when she sees Gator in orange and black. This Pitkanen better be good

Then signing Souray for an insane amount. Though 44 will fit him well:

NOW SIGNING DUSTIN PENNER!

But make no mistake, Kevin Lowe is a hustler of epic greatness. He's like FUCKYOU. Overpaying for average guys. You give 7-8 million in the new CBA to guys like Crosby, Jagr, Brodeur. Not guys like SCOTT GOMEZ wtf. Driving the salary up for RFAs. WAY TO GO LOWE!
