Bbach1 Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Ok all you wonderful Canuks, you just gotta step up on this one. Since I live a darn site closer to Edmonton than the Carolinas, I'm joining the ranks of the Canadian hockey boosters. Go Edmonton! bbach Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

Billster Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Something's just wrong about hockey in Carolina. Not to mention the franchise heritage of being the forever .500 Hartford Whalers. Edmonton gets the nod as an 8th seed underdog, and old Bruin friend Sergei Samsonov. Sammy! Come back home in free agency! Buy my CD on CD Baby! Bill Hartzell - the website MySpace?!?!
Guitarzan Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 i am suprised to see no Carolina fans. are you sure you guys aren't Canadian? http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will
S. Yeti Bigfoot, Esq. Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Is that East Carolina or West Carolina? Oh, wait...North Carolina or South Carolina? "And so I definitely, when I have a daughter, I have a lot of good advice for her." ~Paris Hilton BWAAAHAAAHAAHAAA!!!

Hound Dog Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Carolinian here... My feeling is this has all happened so fast we just don't really know what to make of it. I'm not a regular NHL viewer, but I saw the last two games and the Oilers obviously had Carolina's number. I came away wondering how Carolina had won 3 games. Tonight should be great with both teams going for all. Yum, Yum! Eat em up!
The Big G Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 hockey !!!!!!!! come lads follow a proper sport. Is this the climax of the hockey season?? Edmonton Oilers versus who????? No ice in Carolina surely?? Its not a sport we take very serousily over here, a minor sport if you like. Hope its a good game enjoy it. Love life, some twists and turns are more painful than others, but love life..... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=592101
Danzilla Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 I've found a little time to watch some of the games; overall, some great hockey is being played. I felt bad for Edmonton, with the great tradition, being whipped by those "upstarts" from Carolina. However, Carolina got to the playoffs for a reason. Glad to see Edmonton regain composure and come back to force games 6 & 7. I don't care who wins, as long as they earn it. Which, it seems, either team can say that they have done so. Edmonton: traditional power, proving why they are that. Carolina: new guys on the block showing you can't write them off. One year, the Caps will regain their ability to contend.

ihategarybettman Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Go, Oilers, go! Edmonton completely outworked what appeared to be a tired Carolina team the other night, and it was great. I don't want to see the Hurricanes win the Cup because: - Any fans that can't sell out a playoff game don't deserve the Cup. - I resent the ridiculous amount of luck that Carolina has had. Key players for the opposition go down with injuries in every one of their series (have you ever seen a team lose four out of five starting defensemen and their leading scorer like Buffalo did?); flukey goals galore; and penalties, real or not, given to the opposition at the key moment of each series (each time Carolina scored the series-winning goal, it was on a power play). - Carolina and Laviolette have done a lot of whining throughout the playoffs. One of the things I loved about the Sabres this year was that they didn't use the injuries as an excuse; they just came out and battled to the end.
jbote Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 I always love the underdog, and Edmonton has been the underdog for the enitre playoffs. Even though they beat the Sharks, I'm rooting for them. Go Oilers! John
Gifthorse Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 GO EDMONTON!!!! I am a HUGE Ryan Smyth fan. I think he is one of the best players in the NHL. Not because he is flashy or scores tons, because he is a winner. He represents to me a playoff performer. A gritty player that NEVER gives up and scores big goals. I remember when Edmonton came back against Dallas in 97' or 98'. It was in the first round. Dallas was up like 5-1 or 5-2 or something in the 3rd period with like 2 minutes left or something crazy like that. And Edmonton came back tied it up and WON in overtime. I think they were down 3-1 in the series too and came back and won it. That was some inspirational hockey. They ended up losing to Colorado in the next round I think. I say Edmonton is going to own Carolina. Bring the cup back to Canada!!! http://flagshipmile.dmusic.com/ http://www.myspace.com/gifthorse
Guitarzan Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 i guess it is over. didn't happen. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will
Hound Dog Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Wow, what a game! Carolina did it. Now if the Carolina Panthers go to the Superbowl... Yum, Yum! Eat em up!

ihategarybettman Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Big G, I can't express how sorry I am to hear that hockey, the greatest sport ever invented, the perfect synthesis of skill, speed, artistry, fluid motion, and sheer determined force, is not taken very seriously over there; the UK truly doesn't know what it is missing. Oh well, if it makes you feel any better, cricket doesn't even register as a blip on the radar screen over here.
fantasticsound Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 I'm going to say, "Carolina". I watched the last few minutes of the second period. They were really going at it. But a few minutes of watching them seemingly aimlessly batting the puck up and down the ice was all I could stand. Of course, had Nashville done better this post season I would've been completely enthralled. It's easiest to find me on Facebook. Neil Bergman Soundclick fntstcsnd

Ihate, yeah hockey is played here and has a national league etc... but always struggling for crowds etc... i have been to a couple of games and yes they were good. but its never going to be big here. Cricket doesnt get great crowds either but played by a lot of people, football rules and by that I mean proper football not the game in the USA that stole the name of our game Love life, some twists and turns are more painful than others, but love life..... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=592101
