Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 15 May 09 - 04:26 PM Is that Shaq the basketball player? Who's Eddie Shack? ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: gnu Date: 15 May 09 - 02:03 PM Yeah! Fact is, you said he HAD a breakaway but was tripped... penalty shot. Then, he had a second breakaway and was hooked... penalty shot. Now, I did not know that the second penalty would revert to a time penalty if the first penalty shot resulted in a goal. But, since you clearly explained the logic behind the decision, it makes perfect sense... which I sometimes have a lack of. Okay... here's one for yas... if Eddy Shack wakes up in a bed without any floral prints on the sheets, did the "opposing" player clear the track? |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 15 May 09 - 01:21 PM Before it gets lost! Two penelty shots would be awarded. If on the first attempt, a goal is scored, the second penelty (shot) would revert to a time penelty. If no goal is scored on the first attemp, a second penelty shot would be awarded. If no goal is scored on the second attempt, play would resume and no time penelties would need to be served. Reasoning is that you can only score 1 goal at a time during the normal coarse of play, but you can assess more than one penelty at any time during the hockey game! |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 15 May 09 - 01:05 PM Subject to change. Come on over! Come on OVERRRRR........! We got two recliners and a couch in the living room plus 4 wing chairs (WING chairs, LOL) with all the pink colors covered up, and two camping recliners and two more upholstered recliners to bring in. And a GREAT pub-dog dog (according to Leadfingers) who hears goals being scored and celebrates with us. Several boxes of treats so each person can reward him for their own teams' goals. Lapcats indoors and out.... Porches.... campers to sleep in for the highly-allergic, not to mention the kingbed in the MuDDorm if any spously fan-pairs attend..... A whole fridge just for beer! A smoker, ready to load..... a grill or two.... at least a gallon and a half of BBQ sauce (two kinds) and wasabi...... aw, come on over! PLAN NOW FOR NEXT YEAR. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 15 May 09 - 12:06 PM 1. I'm thrilled to see the schedule for the CF flatters Gonchar's leg healing. It's a huge advantage for us; hope we use it well. 2. I hope my Wings-fan friends here will remember my steadfast admiration of them these last several years. But I am originally a Hawks fan, so.... but I'm OK with whichever team wins that series-- it will be such GREAT HOCKEY. 3. I'm actually OK if the Canes win the Pens series, too, but GO PENS! 4. Are ANY of you coming over? :~) 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs - Conf.

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 15 May 09 - 10:45 AM Beer.....close, but no cigar! Hint, hint..... both infractions would have resulted in a penalty shot if they had happened at different times of the game, but they happened simultaneously during the regular coarse of play with no stoppages in between! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 15 May 09 - 10:03 AM Lets try this again. Tripping penalty to be called if defending team touches the puck. Ref's hand is up. However the player gets up and takes off again but is hooked. Ref calls a penalty shot. Man in box for tripping even if the goalie is scored upon on the penalty shot. Ad. |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 15 May 09 - 09:31 AM Adrien.....nice try, but wrong! gnu........player was from western Canada and they won't stay down! |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 15 May 09 - 08:38 AM First 3refs, thank you for the explaination. Here is my guess to "What's Your Call?" I would say the answer is a Double Minor. Adrien |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 15 May 09 - 08:26 AM A-Each Team shall be permitted to take one thirty-second time-out during the course of any game, regular-season or playoffs. B-This time-out must be taken during a normal stoppage of play. Only one time-out, commercial or Team, shall be permitted at any one stoppage of play. (NOTE) For the purpose of this Rule, a commercial stoppage in play is deemed to be an "official time-out" and not charged to either Team. C-Any player designated by the Coach will indicate to the Referee (prior to the drop of the puck) that his Team is exercising its option and the Referee will report the time-out to the Game D-Timekeeper who shall be responsible for signaling the termination of the time-out. E-No time-out shall be granted following a face-off violation. (NEW for 2005-06) When a penalty shot has been awarded to either Team by the Referee, no time-out will be granted once instructions have been given to the player taking the shot and the goalkeeper defending the shot. No time-out will be granted during the shootout. Whats the call? An attacking player strips the defenseman of the puck at the defenceman's blueline. Attacking player is clearly on a breakaway when he is tripped by the defenseman. The attacking player is able to return to his skates, still in possession of the puck and continues towards the net. As the attacking player continues towards the goal, still on a breakaway, he is clearly hooked from behind by the other defenceman! No peaking.....what's yer call? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 15 May 09 - 12:00 AM Beer, that's called the media time out, and it's not charged to either team. Ain't one in overtime tho. ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: maire-aine Date: 14 May 09 - 11:34 PM Woo-hoo! Go Wings. And the series against the Black Hawks is gonna be great. One of those old-fashioned hockey rivalries.... Maryanne Royal Oak, MI |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 14 May 09 - 11:12 PM Here is a thought. Time Out is usually taken near the end of a period or at game's end. However no one ever speaks about the time outs that take place for commercials. Right? Adrien |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 14 May 09 - 10:03 PM Stand up and CHEER or sit down and MOAN, Dan Cleary me by's is taken it home. Adrien I love the Hawks as well but the Wings come first. |

(There ain't no Wes Ginny Wildcats, Boberdz...) There ain't??? Well, if there were they sho nuff be kickin' butt and takin' names.... Go Wildcats!!! Tear 'um up and spit their heads out...

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 14 May 09 - 06:51 PM You need to become a RCF, too, Bobert. I tell you, I DO understand.... Here's how we handle such moments in Mudcat hockey threads. Pick another team to throw your support towards, and get hockeyhappy. GO BOBERDZ SURROGATE TEAM! ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Bobert Date: 14 May 09 - 06:48 PM Well, there is a silver lining about being a Washington, DC sprts fan and that is alot more time to rake leaves, mow grass, shovel snow or just watch "I LOve Lucy" reruns... Ya see, when yer homies never ever make it to the finals of anything then you just don't get that "final's" mindset so for us, when the last regular season game is over, and usually well before, we have lost interest in that particualr sport... Then we get all hyped up about the next looser and root for it until it craps out and then back to raking leaves, mowing shoveling snow or Lucy and Ethel... Only folks in DC understand this... Actually, it's kinda a blessing... Frees up alot of time... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 14 May 09 - 02:10 PM And we have a freezer full of ready-to-heat BBQ. What a shame! Again, I issue the invite-- MudGather, our house, with DVR, BBQ, and BYO beer? Maybe NHL games on puder, too-- think it's fast enough, maybe the laptop is as well. Laptop radio for sure. ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 14 May 09 - 06:56 AM Did I mention we're originally from Chicago? GO PENS GO HAWKS GO 'CANES GO WINGS ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 13 May 09 - 09:09 PM nO, REALLY, i SWAR, aS AN rcf, AT THIS POINT i AM SAYING, WE MIGHT STILL WIN THIS ONE. oops sorry "We might still win this one...." As if we are down 6-1 instead of up 6-1. And just as I said, they're risking pissing it away-- it just went 6-2. We gave them life. I AM glad to see they scored on Theodore, but not 5 goals, eh? You wait and we'll see.... ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 13 May 09 - 09:08 PM 6-1. 4 and change left in the third. Not the game I expected. Hate to kick him when he's down, but your only as good as your goalie. Not a good day to have a bad game! Good Luck Pens!!!! .....now 6-2. Too little, too late! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Bobert Date: 13 May 09 - 09:03 PM WYSuzie, Ain't no jinx on yer beloved Penguins, who BTW had beaten the Caps every playoff series, except 1 (that's one) going back to the days of Columbus and the flat earth... I'm not watching the game 'cause it's a Washington, D.C> sports team in a playoff... That means that 99.99999% of the time the Washington sports team looses... Talk about a jinx... Try growin' up around here!!! Watch baseball steal not one, but 2, of yer teams... Watch 30 years of crappy basketball teams... 20 years and counting of crappy football teams... The only good news is that we went 30 years without a crappy baseball team 'cuase we didn't have baseball for 30 years... Or was it 40 years... Prolly closer to 40... So ya'll gloat about how great the mighty Penguins are... Who cares??? I told ya'll that it was gonna go like this... Believe me... We folks 'round D.C. know the deal... The Caps would have lost to Helen Keller... lol... B;~( |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: gnu Date: 13 May 09 - 08:23 PM Okay... go for it. >;-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: gnu Date: 13 May 09 - 08:11 PM Hahahahahahaaaaa.... good one. But... it can turn on an ice chrystal... careful. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 13 May 09 - 08:05 PM Bobert, as God is my witness, please don't jinx my Pens by bad-mouthing your Caps. :~) These first two goals for instance are a SURE sign we will ultimately lose by pissing it away with a letdown of focus. I mean 3 goals.... ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: gnu Date: 13 May 09 - 08:02 PM The Cherry said REFEREES ARE HUMAN! Seriously. I have it on tape. The Cherry... seriously. I may have to play it back and make sure, but I heard it... I think... better play it back... a few times... to make sure. GO LITTLE BIRDS THAT DON'T FLY! |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 13 May 09 - 09:51 AM Three games down to the wire. And all three should be great. Adrien |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: gnu Date: 13 May 09 - 09:23 AM Severn might take offense there, Bobert! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Bobert Date: 13 May 09 - 08:08 AM Vegas odds on the Caps winning tonight: 1 in 3... I'd say that it very optomistic for the Caps... I would be stunned if any Washington team made the finals in anything... Tiddly winks included... B~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 13 May 09 - 07:20 AM Game 7 can be new territory for many! "I've watched a lot of Game 7s, but this will be my first one," Crosby said before his team headed off to Washington where it will meet the Capitals tonight at the Verizon Center. "I've never played one in juniors -- or any level." Hockey Night in Canada's Ron MacLean once described Game 7 as "the two most exciting words in sport." "There are few sporting events as compelling as a Game 7 in the N.H.L. playoffs. Maybe the final round of a golf major, but that depends who's in the running. Certainly not do-or-die games in the baseball postseason, many of which end around sunrise EST. Super Bowls amount to corporate schmaltz, with the continuity of the contest destroyed by the glut of advertising. Some prefer the N.B.A. playoffs. But, no, not me. Give me a Game 7 in the Stanley Cup playoffs, any round, any teams, with the season hanging on every rush up ice, every goalmouth scrum." Stu Hakcel |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 13 May 09 - 06:46 AM We have a period left of the Chi game to see later-- am I gonna like it? ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Michael Harrison Date: 13 May 09 - 12:03 AM Oh, no, this does not look good for the Wings. I sure hope they come out storming in the third or it's back to the Joe on Thursday; which, really stinks for me (selfishness here, to be sure)as I've got a show that day at 5pm, my daughter's senior choir dinner at 6:30pm, senior choir performance (her solo) at 7:30pm - and the Red Wings will be playing elimination game #7 at the same time. Well, I'm just going to have to leave the choir performance early enough to catch the third period. Damn it! It's not fair! Of course, in a few minutes the guys could come out storming, sustain it for twenty minutes, and kick hell out of the Ducks. GO RED WINGS! Cheers,..........mwh |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 12 May 09 - 10:07 PM No mention of Chi. upset? I don't see them taking the Wings if it goes that way, but if the Wings loose I think they would have a fair shot at beating the Avalanche |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Bobert Date: 12 May 09 - 09:43 PM Not to worry, WYSuzie... The Caps will blow it... They are not as good a team as the Penguins... They cannot keep control of the puck... Pittsburg can and will in Game 7... Pittsburg will outshoot the Caps by at least 10 shots and will win... Guarenteed!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Ref Date: 12 May 09 - 09:10 PM Of course the Bruins are growling. They've been screwed yet again by the NHL brass. Nothing like a little injustice to stimulate the lads! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: gnu Date: 12 May 09 - 08:22 PM The Bruins are growling. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 12 May 09 - 09:30 AM Thanks, Boberino, but.... The problem is.... that as an "RCF," (recovering Chicago fan, all sports), I know that the flipside of your reassuring mindset is part of my path to sure, hoodwinked destruction. "We can still win this thing" is the mantra of many a heart-crushed Chicagoan as we go down to the dust. Even as the Bulls and the Bears celebrated the championship wins they DID finally achieve, that was still the mantra, with its "maybe next year" echo in counterpoint. So I cannot, as a RCF, if I really want to aim for total wellness, allow myself the start thinking that the Pens/Caps record means a damn thing. The TVblatters were FULL of assurances last night that no game-6-elimination-game had even been won by the Caps, and then, of course, they DID. See our struggle? And beerlessly. ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Bobert Date: 12 May 09 - 08:15 AM Not to worry, WYSuzie... Like I said, for Caps fans watchin' a Caps/Penguins playoff series is like watchin' a snake devour a mouse... We no lnger expect to win these things 'cause it only happens once outta every 10 or so times... So we watch from a morbid curiousity mindset... Actually, that applies to all Washington, D.C. sports... Redskins, Bullets (Wizards), Mystics, Nationals... They all suck and have for decades... 'Cept the Mystics and Nationals who only suck going back to gettin' here... So not to fear, WYSuzie... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 12 May 09 - 05:18 AM There are some health concerns with beer I will not go into, but recently we were able to reintroduce it in small quantities. Hardi bought porter. Being too tired to fetch it last night for the half=glass each we can have, we comforted ourselves thus: the new tradition will be "no beer till they get into the playoffs, and then one ritual six-pack of very good stuff per series." = No new sixpack till they earn their way into the next series. So no beer unless they win #7 and start the next. Hardi will buy. ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: Beer Date: 11 May 09 - 11:09 PM Lol Susan. Sorry for your loss this evening. Well lets hope the next game is a turn around for you. My wife has never bought a beer for me from the local store. And that is O.K. I can get it very easily if i want. ad. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: 3refs Date: 11 May 09 - 11:05 PM Game #7 in hockey(apparently I have to say ice hockey)is the most exciting game of all the major sports game #7's. I really think that any game #7 in any sport at any level is more often than not an "all out affair", but there's just something about the Stanley Cup playoffs! In most cases, as long as my team isn't playing I don't care who is! Van just scored 4-3! Enjoy the playoffs! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Hockey: Stanley Cup 2009 (08-09 Season) From: wysiwyg Date: 11 May 09 - 10:21 PM I said it duiring the 2nd period letdown-- they're losing this game right now. And they did. Hubby already went and fetched savory sides to go with BBQ for supper. He tired. Neither of us could make it to the beer store, too tired to drive safely-- beer 15 minutes west, food 15 min, east. Got fud. Big day. ~Susan |
