QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 05:17 PM) Great game! Come on, Hawks! I want a goal scoring bonanza in round 2!

Dallas barely finished.

Dallas led 4-0 through 2, but now have let 2 in. Not particularly worried about them should the Hawks make it to the next round.

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 03:03 PM) That sounds like trouble for a long Stanley Cup Playoffs run.... They basically have a 2, 3, and 4 defensemen. Johns looks like young Brent Seabrook and Kilngberg has a ton of potential (only the offensive side has really shown so far). Oduya has been solid. The rest of it is day to day. It's much better than they were earlier in the season, but they still don't look like a Cup winner with Tyler Seguin healthy. This game has been all about their fourth line having good shifts giving Spezza's line great starts.

Patrick Sharp has 10 goals in 22 games vs the Wild

Stephen Johns is the Stars best defenseman.

Bout ready to watch Minny beat Dallas again. Lehtonen in goal, which is a better sign for Dallas (It's true, but I can't believe it's true)

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 12:23 PM) This is where the NHL has a problem. Washington was just called a 4 minute high sticking penalty against the Flyers. Problem is, it was a Flyer teammate that got the stick in the face, not the Caps. But no review, and the PP went on. That needs to be reviewed, not some ticky tac offsides play that happened 30 seconds before a goal is scored. I think all major sports, especially aerobic ones should have a live replay official to confer with when something is close. Would save so much time.

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 09:52 AM) Can anyone confirm what Hitchcock said to Pierre during his in-game interview? According to my dad, he said "we like playing here, but this is a different animal." Of course, I couldn't hear so he told me this via text messaging. The guy is 66 years old and texting isn't his thing. Did he mean: Hitchcock said "we like playing here" but he wasn't prepared for that crowd Or did Hitchcock actually say that? That is a legitimate soundbite. And I think he was referring to the whole situation. Crowd energy, opponent energy. All of it.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 11:20 AM) Are you at all influenced by the reports of poor reliability with the Model S? While Consumer Reports stated it was the best performing vehicle they have ever tested, they could not recommend it due to above average reliability problems/issues. Definitely need to take this into consideration, as there are going to be at least 400,000 of these Model 3's out on the road (if they ever get built) and literally no mechanics to fix them.

Another vote for adios to Avi. Seems like a good guy, but this is baseball, not politics.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 01:42 PM) Pretty clearly you're not alone. Of course, instead of staying home, you could vote for the Libertarian candidate. Getting a 3rd party candidate up near 10% might get some attention. With a lunatic like Trump in the election, Gary Johnson could get 5-10%. Personally, I might go that way only because my vote as a "Texas liberal" doesn't matter, because red state.

QUOTE (kevo880 @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 12:52 PM) Looking at new Honda's since my sister is a manager at a Honda dealership in Aurora. Any thoughts on the '16 Accord or Civic? I think the new Civics are pretty slick. I drive an Acura (mine is a TSX, so a European Honda), and I honestly think the new Hondas are starting to make the Acura offering redundant. The Accord is an incredible mid level car and the Civic looks amazing. I have to do a double take looking at them.

That was a ton of fun.

I'm mildly shocked with the way these past two games have gone. Not sure I should be, but wow. Finish this series.

Defensive forwards. Sweet

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 09:08 PM) No prevent defense Might as well step on the accelerator and act like they're down 2

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 08:48 PM) I'm a source. I'm here. This place is LIT That's even better than the place being BAKED #coachella

Looks like he's up again. That was scary.

Crawford's hurt

Blues are broken

St. Louis looks completely incompetent.

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 08:32 PM) I would have NO problem trading Teuvo in the right package, but I don't think his value is going to be very high after this last two month stretch. Shaw's a RFA, right? Maybe move his rights? It won't get you a lot I suppose. Teuvo could maybe net a potential 4th defenseman.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 08:25 PM) I hope some of the younger wingers are ready next season because they are going to have to deal for defensive depth. Any thoughts on who that would be? Not being smart, I'm just curious.

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 08:15 PM) I know Q doesn't have a lot of options, but I don't know why he isn't just going full blast with 2-4-7 and seeing what happens. Agreed. They need to win one game. Deal with the fallout of that later.
