I have been online for about 10 years now, in the current sense really, where I actually contribute to the internet. I used to have a wonderful site that had a couple thousand registered users, thousands of hits a day and all that fun stuff. I had to deal with the occasional user that would taint a forum post or a sour comment. I started this blog because I really love hockey and I love to cheer for the Anaheim Ducks. But my god, this sphere of hockey blogs is almost like commenting on a Digg or YouTube post at times. As the series against Vancouver started, Canucks blogs would link me up and especially since the conference finals were set, that is when things took off. Thank you to Earl Sleek, Bill at A2Y, Scott Warheit and Matt Saler mostly, those four sites have driven the hits way up for me. It is just funny to me how people on opposite sides bash each other. Whether it be directly in a post or comments, it is usually the visitors making the comments though. Arguing online is so stupid, how old are you?
As for today’s game, it is going to depend on which teams show up. I bet both teams keep the same tempo, no reason for either team to think they can let up. Red Wings fans, if you think nothing is wrong and all is well, you are living in a bubble. Maybe you are mixed up with the Pistons-Bulls series, because this is not an over matched series. Everyone has their own point of view and mine is defiantly skewed towards the Ducks, I have honestly been watching this playoff season in a non-biased way. I watch as many games as I can, though I did miss a lot of the Red Wings-Sharks series.
I bet we see the same thing as we did in game one, but I bet the Ducks score a couple more goals in today’s game. I wont really know until later tonight, because I am recording the game and wont be home until about 8PM. I wont look for the score or anything throughout the day, I will wait until I get home and get to watch the recording. Fuck you commercials!
I will go out on a limb here as well and say the Ducks win tonight 3-1. I don’t like to give game predictions because the dynamics change too often in a series. But I think the Red Wings are going to get the best Ducks team tonight, because they don’t want to go home down 0-2.
You are a douche
Wings in Six.
Exactly. Did you think of that one alone or was that a group effort?
“Red Wings fans, if you think nothing is wrong and all is well, you are living in a bubble.”
Yeah, up 1-0 in the Western Conference Finals, the Wings only have to play .500 hockey for the next week and a half and they’re in the Finals. Things are terrible right now.
“though I did miss a lot of the Red Wings-Sharks series.”
Then you shouldn’t be commenting about the Wings. You simply cannot understand what this team is about this year if you haven’t watched the games. All you have to rely on are the media and their “old slow Wings” schtick. Which, of course, is nonsense.
4-3, suck it Wings.
