As for Conklin kudos for him getting back to the bigs. Still trying to figure out how he did it though lol ME TOO!!
No one has ever ticked me off like Conklin did (referring to the game where he was behind the net, and the Carolina b!tches scored) lol
Humiliating goal... and I will always remember that one. | |

| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 9:42:15 AM | One of the things I remember about that playoff run was that MacTavish had so little confidence in his back-up goalies that he was rotating Conklin and Markanen as the second fiddle. I remember the moment Roloson went down, we were saying at the party I was at "well, was the right guy on the bench?" Clearly not. | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 10:51:19 AM | Geez....I remember some Flamer fans laughing when Roloson was injured and to our surprise, out came Conklin. One of them was killing himself laughing and said something to the effect of, "OMG!! They're putting in Conklin!! Cue the disaster..." Well, a few minutes later...yup.
Anyway...there were three culprits involved in that goal: 1) Conklin 2) Smith 3) MacT for having Conklin as a backup...WTF!! | |

| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 2:40:23 PM | Way to remind me of a not so glorious moment. Geez, biggest disappointment ever that year! Rolli getting hurt killed us.
About as bad as Steve Smith scoring on Fuhr in our own net in the 80's. I was a kid and I still remember that one. The year we DIDN'T win the cup during that stretch of glory.
Not sure who I am cheering for now. It's down to who I dislike the least I think. | |

I'm also wishing for the Sharks to pull one more tonight and push a game 7. History could be in the making. I don't think there ever was a team that came back from an 0-3 deficit and won a series. O.o [but i'm not sure. somebody correct me if i'm wrong...] | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 6:41:40 PM | I believe 2 other teams have done it, but not in the modern era.

My reasoning for cheering them on has more to do with a certain Flames fan (who shares my blood FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!) lol
She has been cursing the Sharks since they blew out the Flames in the playoffs.. GO SHARKS GO!! heh. | |

| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 7:28:24 PM | | Leafs did it in 1942, then 33 years later, in 1975, the Islanders did it. And here we are, 33 years later ... | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 7:30:36 PM | 3 teams since the 1930's have come back from 3-0, according to the TSN guys tonight.
Sorry I am rooting for Dallas though, I like Marty Turco, and Modano, and DON'T like Ron Wilson. And I really don't like San Jose fans, remember they boo'd Oh Canada when we were playing them in our last run. Yea, I'm holding a grudge... lol.
Go Pens on the other side! | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 7:40:45 PM | | my prediction is that the Oilers become a better team than Calgary in the next 2 years | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 7:48:30 PM | TSN guys are wrong then. It's only happened twice. I think they were saying SJ is trying to become the third team to do it. | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 7:48:37 PM | ^^Earlier than that AE!!
And I really don't like San Jose fans, remember they boo'd Oh Canada when we were playing them in our last run No, no... that was Anaheim. Not San Jose.

Holy cow!
And here we are. Overtime. This could go to 3-3...O.O
WOW
Edit: for the isles, they obviously blew it, cuz the Flyers won it that year...
That sucks tho. Coming back from 0-3 to tie, but they blew the last game! mouhahaha. It's like a big fat orgasm waiting to happen, but it doesn't come. LMAO | |

The Isles did it against Pittsburgh in the quarter-finals in 1975, then came back from a 0-3 deficit to force a Game 7 against the Flyers in the semis. | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 9:26:22 PM | They did it twice? WOW! O.O
Anyway, 2nd overtime right now in Dallas. One of the most exciting overtime i've seen! Miraculous saves from both goalies. this could go on for a while i think... | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 9:34:00 PM | | Yeah...crazy saves!! At least 3 or 4 should have been guaranteed goals. How about Morrow's hit on Michalek? Ouch. Shades of Raffi...hehe...poor guy has a rough 3 years in the playoffs. | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 9:41:58 PM | Head's up boys!! (that puck is purty, but you may want to look UP!) lol
Gruelling overtime.. I LOVE IT!!!!

|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 9:49:52 PM | TSN guys could sure be wrong, I have no idea.
You're right Fox, it was Anaheim. Oh well, I'm cheering for Dallas anyway... lol. SJ is taking it to them in 2nd OT though. | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 10:11:36 PM | | Awesome! I'm actually enjoying this game a lot. I'm betting the Wings are hoping that the Sharks pull off the upset so they can beat on a tired Sharks team in the next round. Anyway, that whole Pavelski routine on the icing...hmmm...I wonder if they actually have a rule about that situation or did the refs just improvise on the spot. | |
|
| Who to like now? Posted: 5/4/2008 10:20:04 PM | Nearly 68 minutes without penalties!! The refs must want the game to end already, go home and have a brew or two... LOL

I watched that game holy crap almost 6 hrs I do know of the 1943 dea things and the islanders did it 75 or 76 don`t think there was a 3rd nhl team but it was sweet when the sox did it to the yankees. (Thats baseball) However I will go look it up ps hell of a goal Malkin scored. Henrik just looked stunned. One of the sweetest backhand goals I have seen in my life and I have about 30 of his rookie cards
Being a Flames fan I wanted the sharks to die. Maybe us taking them to 7 games helped but I think Dallas simply had the better goalie also the better luck but 4 ot`s I almost snoozed off | |

| Who to like now? Posted: 5/5/2008 3:05:39 AM | | I don`t really remember that goal which game was it I remember the game 6 4-0 game did carolina even get 9 shots that game Yeah yeah I`m a flames fan but I cheered for the Oilers now all our teams are toast who does Conk play for now is he Fleurys back up too lazy too look it up. | |

| Who to like now? Posted: 5/5/2008 3:21:13 AM | Dr Strangelove did you get to watch that brutally long game I`m glad the sharks are back where they belong I can`t remember who it was on here that told me the Flames were just smashing them around in game 7 that they`d get raped next series down 3-0 the sharks put up one hell of a fight and this could gone to a game 7 I think San Jose scored that goal but the refs rule is final and the series over I think they got screwed and I am happy with that
As cor coming back 0-3 it was either the 75 or 76 islanders and also in Baseball my Boston redsox vs the Yankees to kill the curse oh yeah don`t forget what the red wings did in 43 just picture it stanley cup finals you are up 3-0 and you screw it up detroit did it.
I want Dallas and the Pens in the final game 7 all the way now that all our canadian teams are gone Part of me wants to see Dallas win and part I would love to see Sid holding the cup don`t want the wings or the flyers winning it.
Most folk in edm hate dallas and don`t want them to win so cheer for Croz and the Burgh | |
