Dubey 1,035 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 What an anti climactic finish to a greeat hockey game. The flyers are just a fun team to watch. They deserved a better result in this game, but I still think they will come back to win this series.I'd actually be interested in betting on this if somebody gave me 3-1 odds.

digitalmonkey 929 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I think Dave really wants to bet on the Flyers lol. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Anti-climactic? The puck was clearly in, the ref is just an idiot. It was a climax, just not a retarded celebration following it, lol. I knew it was in the second I saw it.Things look good in my eyes, Sharks, Bruins, Bolts all up 2-0 (jinx). Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Lol triple postAnd yeah Zach, a playoff overtime goal scored by the road team, where the goal light never goes on, and is waved off immediately by the ref, and is followed by 30 seconds of continued play, then a video review before a goal is awarded counts as anti climactic, at least in my book.

I'm assuming this number, despite being marked replies, includes the original posts also made by dna4ever.Yeah, I figured that part out but it doesn't seem to work as well for people who post very prolifically...there's no way I only have 1056 posts in the hockey forum since day one, and when I ran the search parameters on OT General it gave me 1050 returns...which doesn't make sense because I have over 6k posts in the Sick Thread alone.I think there must be a 42 page max on the number of posts they'll return in a search...says the same number for Zach and he has 1500 more posts than that just in the Penguins thread.

Skeleton Jelly 2 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 It says it is limited to the first 1,000 returns, so I don't know why it sometimes gives more than that, but yeah, you can't do it this way for people who post a lot. Link to post Share on other sites
SBriand 4 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I have 1571 posts on the first page of topics on this account. More if I added Duck. I have posted in each topic except the Flyers thread.Also interesting that the top posters in the team threads correspond nicely with the team. Zach for Pens, me for Wings, Serge for Leafs, Dale for Habs, Ray for Bruins but Adam is 3 post away from the top of the Sabres. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Before we upgraded to the new software, like 2 years ago, each member profile would show which forum they were most active in, and the number of posts, with a % of total posts. Can't seem to find that anymore.I would bet I have about 30k split between here and the strategy forums. /loser Link to post Share on other sites

serge 904 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Who pays for the failure of the Caps in the playoffs again? Is it a failure, when you make the final 8?Boudreau, McPhee..Ovy??? Link to post Share on other sites
TwstdWrstr 10 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Who pays for the failure of the Caps in the playoffs again? Is it a failure, when you make the final 8?Boudreau, McPhee..Ovy???It's pretty much always the coach isn't it? I think it's beyond ridiculous they insist on keeping Ovi on the point during the power play, what a complete waste. The Caps were so much more focused on defense and team play during the regular season then all of a sudden in the playoffs they complete regress. To me that speaks of a lack of mental preparation which reflects poorly on the coach getting his team ready properly. Link to post Share on other sites
