2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs

[Davedirectv]

I remember that Chris Osgoods rookie season

didn't he let one in from center ice that playoff?

1-0 Montreal with 5.54 to play - Halek is stealing this series.

 

[riffjim4069]

didn't he let one in from center ice that playoff?

I thought that was Vernon, but I don't recall since it has been so long. No, you're correct...it was against Jamie Langenbrunner in Game 5 of the Western finals against the Dallas Stars. Detroit Red Wings goalie Chris Osgood again proving critics wrong in postseason - ESPN

 

[riffjim4069]

Wow! 2-0 Montreal with 3 1/2 minutes to play. This marks the first time a #8 has beaten a #1 after trailing 3-1 in the series.

 

[hwkn]

The Caps are almost toast......down 2-1 with just over 2:00 to go.

 

[riffjim4069]

Wow! Washington scores with 2:16 left to play; 2-1 Montreal.

 

[Davedirectv]

2-1 now, they just put it home...

 

[riffjim4069]

The Caps are almost toast......down 2-1 with just over 2:00 to go.

That's what I thought, but had two great opportunities and now have a powerplay with 1:45 left to play.

 

[riffjim4069]

That's what I thought, but had two great opportunities and now have a powerplay with 1:45 left to play.

...and they've pulled the goalie too.

 

[BillD1984]

In their four home games in this series, the Caps have never led in regulation!

 

[Davedirectv]

Do they pull the goalie?

edit, nvm looks like they did

 

[riffjim4069]

Montreal Wins!!!

 

[BillD1984]

YES!!!! The Bruins get home ice!!!

 

[SabresRule]

And the road to the Eastern Conference title will run through Pittsburgh.

(If I'm the Penguins, I'd better take advantage of this)

 

[BillD1984]

The East has the #4, 6, 7 and 8 seeds remaining and the West has 1, 2, 3, and 5.

Is this the first time that every seed number has been represented in the first round?

Stats only a true hockey fan would cite.

I don't see Halek duplicating his performance against Pittsburgh...BUT who knows? Anyway, he is certainily "seeing the puck" and will have to have to play out-of-his-mind in order to beat the Penguins.

Round 2 playoff previews

Pens over Habs in 5- Emotional letdown for Montreal. Pittsburgh now has home-ice the rest of the way in the East. Plus, I don't think Montreal can get outshot every game and win- sooner or later, they're going to have to generate more shots than the opponent.

Bruins over Flyers in 6- Philly's goaltending seems shakier than the B's.

Sharks over Wings in 6- It's their time. They have home-ice. It's now or never.

Blackhawks over Canucks in 7- This will be an epic series, but I give Chicago a slight edge.

 

[riffjim4069]

YES!!!! The Bruins get home ice!!!

I wonder if this is the first time a #6 seed has held home ice?
