Shooter Now: Finding Minnesota Wild coach could be rough ... or Ruff

so which greenwood you from dev? why do you never answer any questions around here ?

Great game.

I though the Wings pressure would ultimately tie the game, but the Sharks bent but didn't break.

Datsyuk's backhand goal was sick.

wings played a very good game.. amazing that they came back from 3-0 to make a series out of it......but the injuries and age i believe caught up with them... plus a little bad luck... say trebuchet did you vote on the ryan the lian rian poll yet ??? if you didnt then please feel free to exercise your right to vote !!!!!!

whats worse is this, the Red Wings could have beaten Vancouver, but The Sharks, the way they are playing right now...NO CHANCE AT ALL !!!

The very best thing about all of this series though was/is of course, here is YET another BLATANT EXAMPLE...OF THE OLDER GUYS PUSHING 40...PLAYING BETTER THAN THE YOUNG GUN overpaid zillionaire superstars.

Yes older EXPERIENCED players dont have to skate at high speed.......they can pass like the puck is on a string.. Experience is a thing that young tits such as pureshit and lian rian dont understand and are too proud to listen...which makes them little fools.. Watching the wings come out of their own end is magic..such ease and the way they control the puck in the opposing end is heaven... but in the end you need the wheels turning too and with the wings injuries and age everything caught up with them all at once. Oh and everybody please vote on the lian rian is a baby Poll

I find myself a much bigger fan of the OLDER teams 1st, and then the original six, but after that to me it's all underacheiving.

And I was seriously wrong about another thing.

After the way Montreal went out LAST year...I felt for sure OVERTCHKIN was gonna be sooo mad still he was goig to own this years Stanley Cup playoffs.

Never happened. Not only that, He sucked all year and evereywhere else as well.

3 games and not even a POINT at the IIHF championships.

And I like that because of this...it says soemth8ing I love about this game.

In order for any team to be successful in HOCKEY in and in particular at the PRO level in the Stanley Cup Playoffs...it takes a whole TEAM of guys ALL ON THE SAME PAGE AND BONDED TO ONE AND ONLY ONE GOAL...WINNING EACH AND EVERY SEEMINGLY INSIGNIFICANT BATTLE FOR THE PUCK OVER THE ENTIRE ICE SURFACE FOIR 60 MINUTES AT LEAST AND FOR THE BETTER PART OF AT LEAST 16 GAMES.

IF EVEN ONE GUY IS OFF...THAT TEAM RISKS LOSING EVERYTHING.

"TEAM"...BEATS ALL OF THE "TALENT" IN THE WORLD IN HOCKEY!!!

A GOOD MGMT "TEAM" INCLUDING GM AND COACH WILL BOITH GUIDE AND MOTIVATE THEIR "TEAM" TO THIS END ALONE.

AND ANYTHING, I DO MEAN ANYTHING ELSE AT ALL, ANY OTHER APPROACH...IS DOOMED TO FAILURE!!!

EVERY SINGLE SEEMINGLY INSIGNIFICANT BATTLE FOR THE PUCK...WIN THOSE FOR THE BETTER PART OF 60 MINUTES IN 16 GAMES...ALL 26 OF YOU...AND YOUR GONNA ACHIEVE THE SINGLE GREATEST THING IN ALL OF SPORTS, AND MAYBE THE HARDEST...AND GET YOUR NAME ON "THE LORDS" MUG.

look back at the story for each and every cup win and the story is exactly the same for all of them, well, just about all of them, all of them except one.

The 1999 "Brett Hull" Stanley Cup.
But as you know I am sure, that one is a whole other story!!!

But yet you blame price for every single loss the habs have . Way to contradict yourself !!!

Yes i have went over the wins and losses and he was at fault for about 87% of the losses. that pretty well sums up the habs season........say rian did you get a chance to vote today ??? If you didnt please do !!!thanks.

You're such a hypocrite Spartshit. You keep saying that Price is the cause of all the losses and now you post that it takes a "WHOLE TEAM OF GUYS BONDED TOGETHER YADDA YADDA YADDA " you're a bright guy aren't you hypo.
Oh and you thought that Ovechkin was so so so mad that he was going to win the cup because he was mad mad mad. What a childish stupid immature thing to say you moron. Just because he was mad he was going to own the playoffs and win the cup???? Hee hee hee hee. That's funny man...I'll give that to you. That comment just shows that you are about 12 years old little man. By the way, it takes a team of mad men to win the cup buddy, not one guy. Again you contradict yourself spartacus...are going senile or what?

I will vote..

Spatacus as Head Coach

Devshit as Head Coaches bum boy and towel holder

I will vote pureshit as uneducated half hearted fan with little to none hockey knowledge...with the baby as his equal in that catagory...

Still won't say what greenwood you're from eh dummy ? I'll vote dev dummy of the year and spartacus as shit talker of the year . If price was responsible for 87% of the loses , he was also responsible for 99% of their wins and also responsible for getting them into the playoffs . That pretty much sums up a season where a team with only 2 20 goal scorers gets into the playoffs in the 6th seat riding the stellar play of their goalie .

Price is a goalie that just cant stop the one you need him to stop... gets a little flustered when the big games are on the line.......not a stanley cup type goalie.......sorry.........don t for get to vote rian the lian

Such a idiot . why won't you say which greenwood dev? is it cause you're a chicken shit? affraid i might come up their and school you in a game of hockey ? gets flustered in big games eh ? that's why he has a junior gold medal ,a calder cup and he is the youngest player ever to win mvp in the playoffs for AHL . What has halak done again ? i already know what your answer will be , you'll copy and paste another one of your moronic price posts .

You guys are arguing over goalies?

Here's a news flash: Goalies are head cases.

Look at Roloson. How many teams has he been with?

Now he's in the Stanley Cup semi's with a good shot at the finals.

Who would have bet on him in October?

Goalies get hot, goalies get cold, goalies get somewere in-between.

Who would have bet on roloson in october ?? Lets see don cherry told teams to grab him... I suggested that a team should pick him up because he could still play... see here is the thing...price gets all the press clippings,but roloson has history of stopping the unstoppable when it counts..........price can make a big save when his team is leading 5-0 but cant stop a beach ball when you really need a big save...thats the difference between a playoff goalie and a non playoff one..

I never argued over golaies, they did...and I have mentioned rolonson a hundred times and I have also made your exact same statemrnt many times...and golaies are fucing dime a dozen. IT IS VERY RARE THAT SOMEONE LIKE EITHER GEORGE HAINSWORTH JACQUES PLANTE OR KEN DRYDEN EVER COMES ALONG...ROY WAS CLOSE BUT VERY FAR FROM THE TALENT THOSE GUYS HAD...AND PRICE...IS THE FURHTEST THING AWAY FROM THEM POSSIBLE,,,THEY WERE ALL MEN...HE IS A LITTLE BABY BOY WIHT A BAD DISPOSITION AND A VERY INCONSISTENT DEMEANOR AND IN 4 OF THE 7 GASMES WIHT BOSTON HE ALONE WAS RESPONISBLE. NOONE ELSE.

THIS IS ALL FACT...IT'S IN THE RECORD BOOK, AND NOTHIGN ANYONE SAYS OR DOES CAN EVER CHANGE IT...HIS AGENMT IS DEMANDING 5 MILLION PER YEAR MINIMUM, AND WIHT SCOTT GOMEZ'S SALARY, THAT;'S A DEATH BLOW TO ANY CHANCES THIS TEAM WILL HAVE IF PORICE REMAINS...THEY BOITH HAVE TO GO, THAT GOMEZ SALARY HAS TO BEGGED OFF...AND PORCE CLEARLY HAS NOT LIVED UP TO EVEN ONE EXPECTATION.

THERE IS NO ARGUMENT...IT'S A FACT!!!

HENWAS OVEREVALUATED AND OVERVALUED SOIMCE DAY 1 AND NOT INCE HAS HE PERFROMED IN THE PKAYOFFS WIHT ANY COINSISTENCY WHATSOEVER.

IN FACT...IN ALL4 OF THOSE GAMES...MORE THAN 1 GOLA WAS SOCRED AGAINST HIMN IN ALL 4 THAT ORGINATED FROM BEHIND HIS OWN GOAL LINE...A CLEAR AND IUNDENIABLE INDICATION OF JUST HOW INCINSISTENT HE IS.

AND TO MAKE MATTERS EVEN WORSE...JACQUES MARTIN COMPLETELY IGNORED THE FACT THAT ORICE CAN NOT POKLAY THE OUCK PROPERLY BEHIND HIS OWN NET, SOMETHING HE HAS PROVED OVER AND OVER AND OVER AIN, YET MARTIN NEVER ONCE TOLD HIM TO JUST FUCKING STOP, AND PRICES' OWN PHONEY SWAGGER AND HOLIER THAN THOU ATTITUDE 100% TOOK OVER AND HE FAILED AND I DO NOT CARE WHATS WRONG WIHT OTHER PEOPLE'S VISION, I SAW WHAT I SAW AND WHATS ON RECORD...HE FAILED...AGAIN...4TH YAR IN A ROW...AND FOR THE 50TH TIME I SAY...HE WAS COPMPLETELY OUTPLAYED ALL YEAR AND THRIOUGH THESE PLAYOFFS BYA 40 YEAR OLD VETERAN...ROLONSON...TO NAME JUST ONE.

HE IS NOTHING LESS THAN A COMPLETE DETREMENT TO THIS TEAM AND AT 2-9 IN HIS LAST PLAYOFF HOME GAMES...A DISGRACE TO THE "CH" LOGO AND EVERY SINGLE FUCKING THING IT STANDS FOR.
