[biggunsbob]

Sigh

Damn Wash.

 

[biggunsbob]

Shitty Capitals make the playoffs.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Kinda glad in the end Washington won outright If the Wings gonna tie anyway and would've lost the tie breaker.

The Red Wings weren't going to be given that game that's for sure.

 

[biggunsbob]

We need to fix the defense next season. Get better goaltending.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

If not for that last Larkin injury they coast into the playoffs.

Sigh.

 

[biggunsbob]

I don’t think the Flyers pull goalie if they knew we had tied. It was so late.
I had the flyers broadcast and you should have heard them.

Sigh.

Don't be one of those people. Larkin injury does not excuse losing 8 of 9 games and playing lifeless in the vast majority of them.

Probably not but it is what it is.. Good season regardless and exciting.

 

[UMRules06]

Just beat Washington one time and you're in. They couldn't do it.

 

[biggunsbob]

Kane should be signed back for other reasons. But he seems to score in shootouts.

But we won.

 

[UMRules06]

I will say this.....I really hope this sparks next year's team a lot like how when the Lions won in Lambeau to close out their season in 22 and then came back and did what they did last year getting all the way to the NFC Championship game.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

But we won.

Just seemed like Philly was gonna cave regardless

 

[biggunsbob]

We have to figure some things out. Defense giveaways . Goaltending needs fixing.
Frustrating we didn’t make it.

They played much better in the 2nd and 3rd and remember they had a goal whistled out by a shitty ref. I don’t think he pulls his goalie if he knew the game was tied so late. I could be wrong.

 

[UMRules06]

Tip your hat to Washington....they gave up only 9 goals in their last 6 games or so I think they said.

Can't say the same for the red wings.

I mean yea

Chances of winning even a series with that goalie battery wasn't great.

But 7 plus years no playoffs after experiencing 15 plus years of highly competitive teams has been rough.

Would've been nice to get one series

 

[biggunsbob]

Last 6 games Washington goalie only let in 9 goals.

They actually had 25 seasons of straight playoffs.
