Clark hit.....Paul Ysebart?
Foligno took Josephs head off with his skate...and Clark did it again in game 7 Andreychuck in the fight...with Pat Conacher Garpenlov hit the post then..... I dont know the others...and I call myself a Leaf fan...... :confused: |

Hey Klayman, here's some recent Flames Playoff trivia: Who had an eagle on the 15th hole in 1997... |
|
ML....Your knowledge of useless trivia continues to amaze:)
Your wife must look at you like a deer (or dear :) ) caught in the headlights....or something similar to how Bryan Mccabe looked like last night. |
Some media outlets are reporting that the Canucks are not going to renew Brian Burkes' contratc for next season.
|
And in other breaking news....the sun will rise in the east tomorrow.

And people will call for the head of Pat Quinn and that Sundin should be traded for some Canadian player and if we package Antropov,Kidd and Clarke Wilm we should be able to get Sakic and Forsberg out of Colordo. But only do that trade if Colorado throws in a 1st round pick. |
c'mon bbor....no way in hell Colorado would do that deal.
Swap Ponikarovski for Wilm, though, and we're golden. |
bbor, no guesses at all on the Leafs trivia? I'm speechless...
|
Quote:
we'll give you Wendel Clark for Sundin. how's that? |

Quote:
Hell, that could be anybody. My question is which Leaf has the best chance of beating or tying that record this weekend? :) |

Quote:
Busy at work...gonna take a run at those questions tonight....some of those are brlliant...the only 1 that came directly to my mind was Garpenlov....I can STILL hear the ringing post behind Potvin. |
Quote:
Johan Garpenlov? What the hell are you people trying to do me here? Why are you bringing up Johan Garpenlov? We stand on the presipice of the end of an era of Wings greatness and you people are bringing up Johan Garpenlov hitting the post against the Leafs. You are horrible people. Isn't my current pain and anguish enough for you people??? BTW, my favorite Garpenlov memory was a game agains tthe Whalers where Pat Verbeek attacked him and Steve Yzerman had to go to Garpenlov's defense, which resulted in Yzerman getting a "Third Man In" penalty and getting kicked out of the game. |
in non-Toronto/Detroit news...Paul Kariya says he's ready to play game 6. hopefully his definition of "ready" is not the same as Rob Blake's.
|
Quote:
An easy question, but a natural follow-up.... Just seconds after the sound of iron finished echoing, who scored the OT-winner for the Leafs in that game? |
Quote:
It was Mike Gartner who got credit, I believe. |
Quote:
Are you saying that Gary Valk's winner in game whatever-it-was in the 2nd round against Pittsburgh in '99 was *more* memorable that that?! :) Quote:
Yessir. |
Quote:
That would be game 6... |
WOW! The crowd in Calgary is electric tonight.
Go Flames! :) Todd |
I decree that all Leaf overtime goals are memorable......i like Randy Wood's ot goal....as well as Cory Cross.......heres the question...what teams were they against.....what year....and what did it make the series(ex. 2 game to 1)
|
Quote:
Wood was against the Hawks. Couldn't tell you anything else about it, tho. Sometime in the early-mid 90s SI |
Quote:
Well, you know. If the Senators had heart... Never mind. Randy Wood... I'll have to think about that. Damn, I'm slipping. Edit: If Wood was against the Hawks, I guess it must have been the 1995 series. |
By the way, for those of you who were reading the trivia and wondering "What the hell is it with this guy and the HNIC opening music montage?"... well, see, it's like this.
When HNIC has a good music montage at the start of the game, the Leafs' chances of winning go up exponentially. When it's something else -- such as Ron MacLean trying to sound poetic, or the dreaded "fans milling around outside" shot that the CBC thinks we find so fascinating -- the Leafs usually lose. Perfect example: Sunday's game against Philadephia. Instead of a montage, we get MacLean waxing poetic about Bobby Clarke and Keith Primeau and the beating heart of a captain. No music. Right then, you knew we were dead. Combined with the afternoon start, and my wife might as well have babbled though the Tkachuks, because the Leafs were done. Compare that to Game Seven against the Sens. HNIC leads off with a rocking montage set to The Trews "Not Ready to Go". The Leafs go on to blow Ottawa out of the building. By the way, I'm declaring "Not Ready to Go" as the official song of the 2004 Leafs playoff run. Yes, I have the authority to do this. It will go up there with the official songs of 1993 (Boys are Back in Town, by Thin Lizzie), 1994 (the answer to San Jose question in the trivia pack), and 2002's (Hero, from the Spider Man soundtrack*). *Yeah, yeah, I know. I didn't say they all had to be good songs. |
Close enough.....Randy Wood scored the ot winner in game 6 against Chicago in the 84-95 playoffs.....LEafs were trailing 3 games to 2....and it extended the series to 7.....the Gardens went nuts that night....as did I....and our hearts were broken in a 5-2 game 7 loss....
I thought the Cory Cross goal was obvious.....Damn Senators |
Hatcher showing his true colors.

Quote:
speaking of Hatcher and colors, am I the only one really distracted by the Home Depot commercial where they are scanning all the hockey players to match paint colors, and there's a guy from the Stars wearing #2? |
Quote:
Why is the goalie in that commerical wearing the number six? What goalie has ever worn #6? Didn't anyone involved in the commercial know that? Nobody thought to point out that? Come on people, I don't ask for much! |
Quote:
84-95, man that was a long series ;) SI |
Wow.....Is H_B still alive?
Cory Cross' OT goal was amazing....I remeber thinking"who the hell shot that?" it was way too good a shot for Cross to have taken. |
Congrats to the Flames.
It is going to be really hard not to root for them being a Western conference guy and despising Colorado. I am bummed, but, hell...I will get over it (faster than I did from 99-01 and last year). I would susspect that there will be 3 coaching positions available this summer. I like Barry Smith and hope that he stays. I don't know what to think about Lewis. Again, congrats to the Flames and their fans. They were the better team. |
Damn....Gelinas again.
Poor Cujo:( |
The Wings just didn't seem to have that fire that they had a few years back. That was when you just felt like when they got to OT they said "OK, this is our time!" I think they need to take a hard look at Lewis and see if he's really the man for the job. Two straight early playoff exits says a lot with the guys on this team.
Please don't let Steve be finished... |
I jumped up and down when Gelinas scored just now. I can't stand the Wings, and it was great to see them go down again. I hope the Sharks FINALLY close out the Avalanche, and I really want Philly to lose, but I don't see that one happening. My dream final four this year would be Calgary, San Jose, Tampa Bay, and Toronto. At least then I wouldn't have anybody to hate.
Great stuff tonight. I wish I'd noticed Kiprusoff earlier in the season, because I would've watched a whole lot more Flames games. Unlike Giguere's regular season last year (which was good but not great), Kiprusoff has kept this stuff up all season long since he took over the job. I hope he can keep this going for years to come, because they could build something great in Calgary around him and Iginla. |
Huzzah! The evil Wings are dead!!!
|
And all is right in the world tonight. God bless Martin Gelinas.
Sorry H_B. |
Haters :)
Quote:
I would be willing to bet that Lewis will indeed be gone. Let's face it, this was Scotty's team. I think Lewis was put into a position to follow up the greatest hockey coach ever. That's a big order to fill. I realize that he was probably the best guy to take the reigns but it is obvious he can't get a team to give that extra 1 percent when it counts. |
Will Cujo bear the brunt of this failure again?
|
Sorry, H_B, Hurst, and all the Wings fans out there. It really sucks when you have high hopes and they don't pan out (KU basketball every year, last year with the Cubs, the year Randy Johnson went to the Astros, practically every season with the Oilers, a couple of years with the Rockets before and after the title), so I'm going to spend the next 24 hours not bagging on Wings fans. That night when your team that you thought could win the title gets bounced once and for all, the only thing left is shock and that crappy feeling that you really can't come back now because it really is over. :(
So, my 24 hour no Wing bashing starts now. Then it's back to business as usual. SI |
Quote:
Hopefully so. Cujo's a little bitch... |
I don't see how fans could blame him, if he does. The Flames just wanted it way more than the Wings did, and sometimes that's enough.

8 7 438 4 3 0 11 1.51 153 142 .928 0 1 I wouldn't think so. I thought he did an admirable job despite my frustration with him. I think it's a matter of other guys not putting up the numbers or putting up a fight. |
Quote:
That seems kindof unfair considering he gave up 3 or less goals every game this series. SI |
He was even better in last seasons play-offs and they still blamed him.
|
Quote:
Good word. I was watching NHL tonight and listening to Ferraro talk about the Flames D. One thing he mentioned, that I kinda noticed during the series was that Calgary did an excellent job of keeping the Wings on the outer edge of the offensive zone. When Kiprusoff did give a rebound, there weren't any Wings to follow up with another shot. |
