Pitts Vs Ott 04/24 Live Thread

[superjeff24]

I'll give you props for not welshing. Lots of people treat it like farmers bets. However, please don't bet on hockey unless you are betting against me. The books are rich enough already!

[MathewXB]

Now now jeff I played college here in the states this never made it past a beer leauge

[superjeff24]

3-0 lead for the Senators and they crap the bed with 4 unanswered. gotta love sens playoff hockey. in and out faster than a hooker with a place to be

[MathewXB]

Now jeff I am a sens fan lets try to keep the salt rubbing to a min please .

[JumpoffJoeBeezy]

Don't worry about it, Matthew. Lets not forget the Sens had a goal called back that should have not called back. If the NHL wasn't slobbing all over Crosby the Sens take a 4-1 lead and this game doesn't even get to OT. Then "super jeff" is singing an entirely different tune.

[superjeff24]

just pointing out the obvious. poor alfredson. i'd demand a trade if i were him. he's a great player, but without a Cup it'll be hard to justify a place for him in the Hall of Fame someday

[superjeff24]

also, even on CBC in Canada they were agreeing before the decision that the net was off its moorings. stop picking threads. a win is a win, a loss is a loss. senators arent a playoff team, they're a regular season team only.

Road teams finished 5-1 in this series.

Guy.. Lets face reality here.. The league wants the Penguins to win. A Penguin knocks the net off, and then the puck goes in the net. Thats a good goal. CBC loves Crosby too.

You layed juice.. Got a good goal called back, and had to go to OT to win. You're SICK, buddy.

[superjeff24]

correction, a penguin pushed a senator into the net. it's the same as the almost 3rd goal on the PP when the sens player cross checked a penguin on leclaire, goal goes in and is disallowed.

and yes i "laid" juice on the sharp money, and won my bet because I'm smart. hows your ass?

[yisman]

yeah, you can't complain about the disallowed goal because the thing on the other end was basically the same thing.

Malkin was shoved into Leclair by a Senator, and they disallowed the goal because of that and did not call a penalty.

If they call it the other way and be consistent, it would've just been an extra goal for each team. And it actually would've been better for Pittsburgh, because an Ottawa goal would've caused the penalty on Gonchar to be waved off.

[superjeff24]

when malkin was shoved into the goalie it may have been a penalty, but getting an extra goal would be so much better for ottawa. 4-1 instead of 3-1 and a powerplay? no hockey team on the face of the planet would choose the latter over the former

[JumpoffJoeBeezy]

I GUARANTEE you I'll have a better record at the end of the playoffs than you will.. guarantee it.

You obviously didn't understand what I meant.

I said if the Ottawa goal had been allowed, the Pittsburgh goal would have been allowed as well.

Obviously if it's a pure choice of goal or penalty, you want the goal, but that wasn't what I said.

[superjeff24]

just as you guaranteed the senators move on to round 2

i'm guessing you'll have to modify your strategy of "ride horrible playoff teams like the sens" if you actually want to make money.

who else are you on? montreal for the cup?

i gotta go, the gf is waiting outside for me. have a great night pretending to know hockey

[JumpoffJoeBeezy]

Gotta love tools like this guy.
