Yesterday was a big night for hockey. Unfortunately for Leaf fans, the Marlies lost out a convincing 4-2 decision to the record setting Norfolk Admirals. The Marlies are now heading home with a 2-0 deficit but here’s to hoping that the crowd at the Ricoh can ignite them again.

Norfolk opened the scoring with Panik deking Ben Scrivens, pushing the puck through the Toronto goalie’s legs and scoring to set the tone for the rest of the game. Alexandre Picard, Brandon Segal and Trevor Smith also scored for the Admirals. The only two goals for the Marlies were scored by Joe Colborne and Juraj Mikus. Mikus’ goal came in the final minute of the game.

There was also a Stanley Cup Final to be played, Game 2 to be precise. While the Devils played a much better Game 2 and dominated through large stretches, Jonathan Quick wasn’t about to be denied a second win in the series.

The Kings are still Kings of the road, winning all 10 of their guest playoff appearances. It was basically a rerun of Game 1 with the Devils packing the  most punch this time. Drew Doughty opened the scoring with a fantastic end to end rush. We had to wait until the third period to see the Devils offense finally produce that tying goal, as Ryan Carter got the tip and goal.

Overtime produced yet another hero for the Kings, his name also being Carter. Los Angeles traded for Jeff Carter to score goals, clutch goals. He did exactly that as the Kings continued their remarkable postseason run.

    I’ll give you that, but I think in this case it’s more about Sather’s obsessive need to sign every star he can. Guys got some serious shiny new toy syndrome. And Radulov could certainly be a star in the NHL. Or, like I said, it could just be a negotiating ploy in his attempts to acquire Nash without having to give up the package that CBJ is demanding.

    still haven’t posted your source and it looks like you spent a great deal of time trying to dig that shit up, it’s a lot easier sometimes just not saying anything but I get the feeling you just like to listen to yourself talk

    I didn’t waste any time at all, simply don’t live on my computer. Came back and saw your response, so I posted my own reply after a very quick search. Like I said, go look for yourself. Or continue to bluster. The post was on a hockeybuzz blog and was my first hit. Did I need to post them all? Do you need footnotes as part of a formal essay? Isn’t it enough that Crawford has been interviewed multiple times by a team who’s owner went out and explicitly stated that the next coach would be able to communicate in french? No you’re right, a report from Andi Petrillo saying “she’s heard he’s taking lessons” is as good as law on the subject.

    It amazes me you’ve gotten this angry and resorted to name calling over whether or not Crawford speaks French.
