Don Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 So where has Iginla gone? I'm getting that 2001 feeling a bit now.... you're team down by two goals... playing like sh!t... no chance of coming back.... having been up 3-2 in the series and now it's all over but the crying.... Ah well, CFL starts in two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilsrule33 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Damn this sucks. The only good thing I can think of is if Tampoa wins they at least win at home which is cool but I want Calgary to win so bad. Anyways...how about Bob Cole's call on the second goal. That was priceless. A classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 4) We do not have to be drowned in the "Iginla is the next big thing" media hype. Instead you get "Brad Richards is a God.". Now that it is painfully obvious that Calgary is toastier than O, CBC no longer takes us to the Saddledome, but rather to a large (gymnasium?) in PEI where they are all screamin' and yellin' and happy.... CBC has all the angles covered. Canada wins no matter which team takes the cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJayDevil Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 (edited) Devils run last year is very similiar to the Bolts run this year: Top 2 in the Conference, hence, easier opponents in the 1st 2 rounds. Devils squash the Bruins in 5 games in the 1st round Bolts squash the Isles in 5 games in the 1st round Devils beat the Bolts in 5 games in the 2nd round Bolts manhandle the Habs in 4 games in the 2nd round Then they both go to the Conference Finals with noone expecting them to win (experts wise). Devils beat the Sens in 7 games Bolts beat the Flyers in 7 games Then they both go to the Finals, facing upstart teams Devils beat the Ducks in 7 games, At Home. Bolts on their merry way to beating the Flames in 7 games, At Home. Almost the EXACT games played, only a difference of 1, and just similiar run. Ups and Downs in the final 2 rounds until they finally just pull together in Game 7 at home and just kick some ass. Hell even after 2 periods, the score has been the same. Hell even 1 player from the Devils and the Bolts have scored 2 goals in Game 7, it would have been even scarier if they scored the same goals, like Friesen scored goals 2 and 3 and Ruslan scored goals 1 and 2. Devils gave the Ducks NOTHING in Game 7, were very well positioned, same for the Bolts. Flames haven't really come close at all, except like 1 shot, just nothing. It's all very odd.

ABC just took us to the Saddledome. Probably because they can't find Prince Edward Island on a map. CBC has all the angles covered. Canada wins no matter which team takes the cup. At least someone's got it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkirt Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 NJ, wasn't our game 7 scoreless after one. Then 1-0 after 2, with Friesen scoring early in the third ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupper and Friesen scoring both by the goal mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilsrule33 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Calgary is not out of it yet. They need to score a goal in the first 10 minutes. Iginla and Conroy must step it up. Actually check that, someone has to show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkirt Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 DR33, 'tis true it is possible, but I'm not sure if Tampa will be like the '61 Blackhawks who were up 2-0 at home and them let in a softie near the end of the 2nd period before the Habs won it all in the 3rd.

Ice Man Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 You have to give TB credit for the way they are playing game 7. They are adding confusion to the Flames and pressuring them. This has me feeling I am watching game 7 of 2001, game 6 was same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satans Hockey Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 (edited) This could be the last 20mins of hockey until next season or even longer than that(hopefully that wont happen) Edited June 8, 2004 by NJDEVILICEONFIRE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 1) The Devs are no longer the last team that lost after having a 3-2 lead. No longer will we be mentioned in articles about future Game 7's. The next ten years teams could blow a 3-2 lead in the Final and we'd still be mentioned. Any excuse to talk about Bourque after all, hell they're still talking about him ad nauseum THREE YEARS LATER when other teams are in the Finals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
