Arizona have walked around Hedman twice already.

I have Vasilevesky in my fantasy league finals. I don't need him being scored on.

And now it's 1-0 Arizona. Not Hedman's fault, though.

I come here looking for knowledgeable hockey debate...but its hit or miss...sometimes i get the knowledgable fans...other times i just gwt the clows that hurl insults to cover the fact theyre overmatched.

Tonight is still to be determined

Yet when the heat gets turned up you tuck your tail between your legs and flee.

You're begging for attention. Admit it.

So...back to hockey...whos to blame about the 6.00 Gaa the last sttetch...thats concerning when we start talking aboutBergeron, Pasternik, Marchand, et al heating up....thats NOT promising...

Is it tbe goalie or the defense thatz been so bad?

Why do you care?

He doesn't. He just wants us to jump through his hoops because his life is really that pathetic.

Stamkos just scored to pass Lecavalier in all time goals for Tampa.

Id call 23 GA in 4 games a disaster...

I'd call it the fires of adversity, in which the iron will of champions is forged.

Im a hockey fan...my team is in thd Atlantic division...and theyre horrible...so naturally the Atlantic division playoffs are what i focus on.

So...as rough as it is facing Boston without home ice....i guess its better than Tampa. I feel for any team that has the fate of facing them at ANY point. Holy Steamroller, Batman.

Last year was so bad he had to bench Matthews in the playoffs. I didnt think it would happen again, so this collapse is surprising

Because he was hurt and only playing at ECHL's level. Babcock expects more from Matthews and so does Matthews.

Yeah...like i said...the insults from the overmatched...no big surprise

If benching him in Game 7 is the way to send a message...so be it.

Admittingly, he waz horrible at the end of that Boston series. Bad. Thats why he was benched. Calling him an ECHL player might be a stretch though.

I wonder if he learned a lesson on playoff hockey vs. Regular season hockey

Yeah...like i said...the insults from the overmatched...no big surprise
- RippedFuel

someone who insults you doesn't mean they are over matched.

You spinning it that way is no surprise though, right?

No no, that means Jack Eichel

You sure you are knowledgeable?

I didn't insult you, are you drunk?

No no, that means Jack Eichel

- Cherry--Skoal

Its spelled Eichel.

You called Matthews play in the playoffs ECHL level...maybe AHL...thats why he got benched...ECHL is quite a ways down from there. But hey ...hes your guy..so if you say it waz ECHL level...who am i to argue?

I hope he did, so he can tell Eichel what it's like.

I don't recall him being benched in that game though.

- Cherry--Skoal

I havent been drunk in 25 years....you leave that behind after college....unless youre a loser.

You hardly overmatch me.
