They played like shit tonight.  Just absolute trash.

No way they make the playoffs. Good thing too, they would have been swept first round.

if you're going to troll dude, how about not being a bore. Instead of bouncing in with your one liners, add something to the tread. Print something that shows some thought, some insight, maybe a little logic. If you have an original thought, let's hear it. 

Otherwise flake off.

You were too late Vladdy.  Come on man,  you gotta show up BEFORE the game is over.  This post needed to happen at the end of the 2nd period.

Brutal all around last night, they got completely out played.

Terry looked pretty good, his size was a problem a couple times, he got muscled off the puck pretty easily, but he will learn how to avoid that.

Yeah, Terry definitely needs to bulk up a bit.  But overall, he showed he has the moves.  He looked like of like Kase avoiding and moving.   But unlike Kase, when someone lowered the boom on him, he was easily neutralized.  I'm sure that will be addressed in an off season conditioning program.  But he looks like a very good option to have.

Last night was brutal. Fuck this team seriously. Act like you fucking want it. Kings hold the tie breaker now and STL and COL looking good. With our shit performance IF we get in we'll probably face Nashville and get wrecked in round 1.

Flyers up over Colorado, hopefully they hold on instead of choking.

[arch stanton]

Neither Varlamov or Bernier available. Andrew Hammond in net with Spencer Martin backing up. It’s been 2 months since both goalkeepers were available at the same time

Philly did us a favor but next Colorado faces the Chicago Tank while the Ducks face the Kings. Its a must win, they better show up or fire Carlyle.

Watching this Kings/Coyotes game.  Can’t help but be troubled by how much quicker Arizona’s “team speed” is.  They just don’t have the clunkers that we have all over the roster.  This is a team that’s had a rough year but they’re trending up.  The record since January is indicitive.  They’re giving the Kings a good bit of trouble.  I think what’s going going on in AZ is going on with a bunch of teams in the West. 

Going forward the Ducks are going to be in trouble as the roster ages if they fail to make moves that work.  The team MUST get faster and more skilled.  For this season obviously the Ducks have to approach every game like it’s do or die at this point.  That Coyotes game at the end of the season won’t be easy. 

Edit: Kings finally pull ahead but this hasn’t been easy for them.

The Lady Ducks are sending a record number of teams to the USA Hockey championships

[UndertheHalo]

the game is just about as big as the Kings game.

[gotbeer]

I feel one or two boners tonight.

[UndertheHalo]

this is a tough match up.  hopefully the Ducks have a good plan for dealing with MacKinnon.  Probably going to need a big time effort from Gibson.

Yes, put the Dick on him.

[UndertheHalo]

oh fucking brother.

[gotbeer]

Oh boy.  Linesman assholes to the rescue.

[gotbeer]

Getzlaf is pissed.  He's running over everyone now.

Gibson needs to be sharp.

[UndertheHalo]

its bullshit but the Ducks have to get it together.  got a whole game to play here.  was gonna take more then 2 to beat the Avalanche anyway.

[gotbeer]

Kase with pressure gets the penalty on a hustle play.  Lock him up.

[gotbeer]

and the linesman gets in the way of the Ducks penalty.  

[UndertheHalo]

Way to go Cogs.

[gotbeer]

Cogs!!!!!!   AGain waiting the goalie out.  

[gotbeer]

Boner line buzzing also.  Good sign for the Ducks.
