yeah that's what i thought, but i didn't watch hockey during the regular season, so i wasn't sure if they had stiffer penalties for fighting than in previous seasons

c'mon you fools. This place is too negative. Time to bring it up for a thread rally. DIE OILERS, GO CANES!

6/12/2006 1:43:02 PM

I don't want the Oilers to die, so much as experience two more losses in this series.

Except Pronger. I want him to bleed from the eyes.

I think this game is going to be a bit chippy at least to start. I think the box will be full like it was in Game 3 of the Buffalo series. At least for the first period. We need to create more chances in this game, and we need to play it into the corner more because everytime it hits the trapezoid Markannen is playing it.

6/12/2006 1:56:18 PM

^^like Terry Funk

6/12/2006 2:39:03 PM

They better play harder than the US soccer team did today.

6/12/2006 2:40:50 PM

T - 5 hrs

6/12/2006 2:44:54 PM

I didn't post in this thread before the last game and they lost.

Go Canes!

6/12/2006 4:23:42 PM

I think we played like garbage offensively, the D and the PK's were really solid, just add the offense and we will be fine.

6/12/2006 4:47:46 PM

GET FIRED UP PEOPLE. (*someone post the rally pictures*)

headed to RBC to watch the game on the jumbotron

GO CANES, MO-FUCKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6/12/2006 6:29:05 PM

time to eat some lasagna, it brought good luck in games 1 & 2, but i had jambalaya on saturday. not that it matters. canes need to play disciplined, and need to get pucks to the net with people in front, some garbage goals are in order. come on 'canes, woot!

6/12/2006 6:37:24 PM

beepbeep!

Go Canes!

Vodka gave me success in game 1, so Im breaking out the vodka again tonight.

6/12/2006 8:13:55 PM

I am so freakin nervous about tonight's game...I pretty much feel like the winner of this game is going to go on to win the Cup, and we looked completely uninspiring in game 3.

6/12/2006 8:14:51 PM

they are gonna set new record for late puck drops

6/12/2006 8:16:35 PM

^^rediculous but almost true. and to think....there were canes fans THAT WANTED TO LOSE GAME 3



we need to get some neat entrance. oilers shit is the tightest.

6/12/2006 8:17:44 PM

SO WAIT.....THEY SKATE THROUGH AN OIL DERRICK BECAUSE THEY ARE THE OILERS?!?!?!?


Man, that is clever. We should skate through something like a Cat-5 Hurricane before every game, or something.

6/12/2006 8:19:17 PM

^ It beats a hog.

6/12/2006 8:19:48 PM

they go out of there way to make a mockery out of our anthem. do your own damn anthem. isnt singing an anthem like pledging allegience anyway? TREASON


^^the elevator door is whats most impressive. wasnt really talking about the oil well

it will be huge for them, but a tied series is not an over series.

6/12/2006 8:21:00 PM

yea but its pretty nice to see that another nation can respect our nation like that and be quiet during it and actively sing

really shows that there are still good people in sports


holy blonde chick

Although one of the coolest things I've ever seen was here at a Knoxville Ice Bears game: their mascot rides around on the ice doing crazy donuts on an ATV. You have to see it to appreciate it, but it's damn hilarious and looks like fun.

6/12/2006 8:21:05 PM

that guy behind the oilers bench is the man

6/12/2006 8:22:08 PM

That is something I'd love to see at sports events. Screw the celebrities that are more interested "in their rendition" of the national anthem and let the fans sing the real national anthem.

6/12/2006 8:22:14 PM

haha holy cow

whatta anthem

6/12/2006 8:22:39 PM

yea id love to have that done here

theres a cute blonde behind the Carolina bench

^^^and that Oilers guy was singing his heart out haha gg buddy

I had a dream this afternoon that we won 9-8

6/12/2006 8:23:09 PM

So do other hockey teams not do that? I figured it was standard practice, but the way they're talking about OMF THEY SING BOTH ANTHEMS@!!

I mean, I figure they probably play a recording of the anthem more often than not, but this is the Stanley Cup Finals. Of course we're gonna have people sing it.

I really like the way we and they do it, but wouldn't any team do it that way?

6/12/2006 8:23:53 PM

i noticed after the band started playing the star-spangled banner at basketball games and there wasn't anyone to sing the words over the sound system there was a huge huge huge dropoff in the 'RED' shout

6/12/2006 8:24:41 PM

we did it for the University of Guelph at their basketball games this year, but there was no singing just music

I heard RED very loudly for one of the Canes' playoff games actually. Maybe Sabres Game 1?

6/12/2006 8:26:15 PM

I'm pretty sure it's standard procedure to play a visiting nation's anthem first prior to any sporting event. I very well could be mistaken, though.

6/12/2006 8:26:26 PM

To borrow an English phrase (too much soccer): "Cheeky early."

6/12/2006 8:29:35 PM

No interference on the big hit on Cullen, of course.
