BBKL Playoffs - Round 1

[Nick]

I didn't get to watch the first 2 periods, was still at work, the 3rd was at least a hockey game (using the term loosely) and by that I mean there was an NHL game that hadn't ran it's full 60 minutes yet.

Dear Boston Bruins,

For once in my life, my interests are aligned with yours. Please anal rape the Canadiens tonight. 6-2 would be ideal, with Plekanec getting 2 goals and Markov getting 2 assists. It would help the Leafs maintain their spot at 2nd in the East and help me dominate the goalie categories vs Chuck. Plus Budaj is starting so it shouldn't be too hard for you.

Please and thank you.

Dear Shiv,

This may be the closest to agreement we ever come. I care not about your match-up versus Chuck, but a Bruin win in regulation is grounds for consensus. I suggest a 6-5 win, so that CAM's GAA & Sv% are not elite, however it would be preferential if the scoring could be done at least a little bit by skaters on the PP, & skaters other than Smith-Soderberg, Iggy or Boychuk. I can see a heavy dose of Chara, Lucic & perhaps some 4th liners. It would be cool if Prust passed the puck to Markov before Plekanc tapped in the rebound.


I won't be mad if this doesn't happem

I agree Shiv. I need Boston to put up one pile of points tonight to remotely have a chance of competing with Nick. 11-1..ouch...

I have no problem with this. I also hope Douglas Murray is on the ice for all Bruins goals.

[CAM]

Bruins have a lot of trouble with the Habs lately. It will be Budaj in nets. Bruins need a statement game against these clowns. Lucic needs to be a wrecking ball. Soderberg is in for his first 4 point night.

[kyuss]

The Sharks abuse the Leafs but of course Torres doesn't fucking play because of some sort of fucking injury.

Can't buy a friggin goal. fuck.

score looks sillier than the actual match-up is. IIRC i've had 5 more GP which means you have a bunch more this week, 5 more today actually! Neither of us have had a goalie play so to say there is a lot left in this game is an under-satement.

To compare this to a single game: I feel like we're done the first period where I had a few power plays and find myself up 2-0, but took a 5 min boarding major to end the period and you're starting the 2nd on an extended power play.

If this were a 7 game series, might be best compared to game 1 - it's good to have the first game, but the next games are more important

[CAM]

lol...i like the analogy Nick!

Sounding like Mike could be getting his 2nd ever active week from Glencross.... if he makes it out of round 1.

my matchup with anton is still 100% up in the air...almost every cat is catchable for either team....week could get really interesting come sunday.

[anton]

im slightly concerned about fasth + hiller going over the 5 GGP but andersen playing on Monday might've saved me

[Lee]

But you are completely fine with dressing an illegal roster. That's cool.

[anton]

yep you got me. i purposely dressed a roster with only 2 Cs - surely that will be the advantage i need to cruise to victory

[The BBKL Insider]

meh, i'm pretty sure his roster his legal

i actually didn't want to play him...one of the better 8th place teams to ever make the playoffs. I'd rather have Mik tbh.

[CAM]

lol....

[anton]

it's NHL legal in that Mackinnon is playing C. it's not bbkl legal in that his FOR is 0.34 or something

[The BBKL Insider]

meh, i'd still rather be playing mik.

[anton]

fuck mik doe

[The BBKL Insider]

should have made it bbkl legal and put in Gionta over mackinnon

i would have approved that move.
