4+ *****!

wouldn't be surprised to see a huge let down after an intense game either

[Titan_Fan]

^I was going to say the same thing.. hard to keep the intensity going after the emotional expenditure they had against the Pens... Luckily, since it is Buffalo, although the Sabres are doing better, the Isles could still have the edge... but I think we see a sloppy game...

[tsunami]

^good news is we should see some more haley hits (no suspension)

[Titan_Fan]

OOOPS! BOO BOO ALERT! Why is Montreal under Power Play % Tsunami?

GREAT! Can't wait for another sighting of Haley's Comet!

What a moron!! lol


I know the idea about the let down... but I dont see it... had we beat the Pens 3-2 in a good back and forth tussle, I think we could see a let down. But never in recent history ahve the isles been so dominant offensively and physically in a game, I think aadrenaline cn lead them to win more than half there games left.

[tsunami]

^i have no idea what you're talking about

[Titan_Fan]

^lol...

[Titan_Fan]

4+ *****!

At least I see all of us got the poll results prediction in BEFORE the game is played this time! <snicker snicker>

[Titan_Fan]

See Tsunami? Some of us DO read all the stats when you make these excellent game threads... and not JUST to catch mistakes! LOL

[Titan_Fan]

So, Montoya or Koskinen tomorrow afternoon?

[tsunami]

hopefully koskinen. he's played really well lately.
