Flyers Force Game 5 in 2008 Eastern Conference Finals

 
Well, well, well… the similarities between the Eastern and Western Conference finals continue.  The Dallas Stars raged back to force the Detroit Red Wings to go to Game 5 and now so have the Philadelphia Flyers.  Before their game against the Pittsburgh Penguins last night, I was wondering if this would be the outcome.  Just […]

Dallas Stars Wake Up And Win Game 4 of 2008 Western Conference Finals

In the nick of time, the Dallas Stars woke up and decided to actually play hockey during last night’s game against the Detroit Red Wings.  I can’t blame the Wings for being stunned (or so it looked to me) to actually have to skate because I had all but prepared myself for a sweep.  […]

Penguins Punish Flyers in Game 3 of 2008 Eastern Conference Finals

Oh. My. Gawd.  This is absolutely insane.  The Dallas Stars and now the Philadelphia Flyers are each one game away from being swept in the 2008 Western and Eastern Conference Finals, respectively.  I cannot even believe this.
Last night, the Pittsburgh Penguins VISITED the Philadelphia Flyers and dominated the game.  I was hoping that home […]

Detroit Red Wings Are One Win Away From Clinching Western Conference Finals

What the hell???  I can’t even believe how bad this series has gone for the Dallas Stars.  That game was a complete and total waste of my time last night.  The Detroit Red Wings all but mopped the ice with the Stars and Marty Turco was a hot mess.  He didn’t even look like […]

Penguins Beat Flyers Again in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals

The Pittsburgh Penguins currently have the best record of any team in the playoffs since the postseason began.  With last night’s 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers, the Pens have improved 10-1.  Since this is their second game (and second victory), they are halfway to winning the 2008 Eastern Conference Finals.  If I were Philly, […]

Detroit Red Wings Take Lead in 2008 Western Conference Finals

Last night’s game felt like a tighter battled continuation of Game 1 between the Detroit Red Wings and Dallas Stars. 
Dallas fell to the Wings but they can’t look to goalie Marty Turco to blame - the netminder was excellent, despite the loss, stopping 32 of 34 shots on goal.  Stephane Robidas opened scoring […]

Penguins Beat Flyers in Game 1 of 2008 Conference Finals

The first game of the 2008 Eastern Conference Finals is over and the Pittsburgh Penguins easily beat the Philadelphia Flyers.  With five of the six goals scored in the first period and a final one netted early in the second, it was just a matter of maintaining the lead for the Pens.  Mike Richards was […]

Detroit Red Wings Dominate Game 1 of 2008 Conference Finals

Wow.  The first game of the 2008 Stanley Cup Conference Finals is over.  It was almost too painful to watch as the Dallas Stars got trounced by the Detroit Red Wings who won 4-1.  The action at Motown’s Joe Louis Arena was basically all in favor of the Wings who took 31 compared to […]

2008 NHL Conference Finals Predictions

Can you believe the 2008 NHL Conference Finals are going to start tonight?  It all went by so fast.  I don’t know how you feel but I always wish it wouldn’t end so quickly.  I just want to enjoy every day of the playoffs but before I know it, it’s over. 
I thought I would […]

My Biggest Surprises of the 2008 Stanley Cup Semifinals

The biggest shockers were in the quarterfinals for me (still can’t get over the Ottawa Senators going down like that) but I still found a few things surprising.
I thought, for sure, that the Montreal Canadiens were going to find a way around the Philadelphia Flyers but, alas, they went down in Game 5 in truly […]
