What is your vote for the best game so far in round 1 - open criteria cause different things make games interesting for different people.

I'm starting this thread about an hour after game 4 of the Van/LA series, which gets my vote and got me thinking about this thread. It was a wild back and forth affair, lots of hits, lots of goals, good saves at both ends, and drama galore. 5 or 6 lead changes, and the most exciting 3rd period I've seen in a long time.

Oh, and the Canucks won

Ottawa vs. Pittsburgh game 5 - TRIPLE OT - great end to end action and some very good goaltending - is the new winner for me.

'Nucks - Kings Game 4 was pretty good too as was Habs-Caps Game 2 (despite the reffing).

I haven't really watched enough of the Bruins-Sabres series to make any judgements there.

I agree 110% Everybody out west should get off the Caps and Habs series and switch to Boston,Buffalo You won't be disappointed. Incredable goaltending.

BRUINS , SABRES GAME 4 !!! BEST GAME SO FAR BY ALONG SHOT, EVERY PLAYER FROM BOTH TEAMS GIVING 150%, THEY ALL WANTED IT. HITS, HUGE SAVES, OT, THIS GAME HAD IT ALL

Boston/Buffalo, no doubt, game 4 was awesome, the goaltending is so good.........wonder if they can trade Thomas now........I'm a big Bruins fan, and figured they had a shot, but they are playing the TEAM game very well

I didn't see game 4 of Van/LA, but I will give my vote to Pitt/Ottawa game 4. 8 goals in the second period; a very entertaining game it was.

Did you hear about the retired proctologist? He spent 40 years saying "what's a place like this doing in a girl like you?"

Here is what I think the top 3 games were

1. SJS/COL game 3
2. WSH/MTL game 2
3. BOS/BUF game 4

Yeah, that is a close second for sure, although what probably made the game so interesting was the bad officiating. Game 2/3/4 in the MTL/WSH series have been very entertaining, although I've been dissapointed in the results.

I've been generally impressed with the high scores in the playoffs this year - in years past it would be rare to see 5/6/7 goals scored in a game, but not this year. Definitely makes it more interesting.

Rask and Miller put on an amazing goalie duel last night. My rankings based on the games I've seen:

1. BOS/BUF game 4
2. WSH/MTL game 2
3. DET/PHX game 1
4. DET/PHX game 4

Overall best series thus far is a tie for me between BOS/BUF and DET/PHX

The arena wall in chicago should be credited with a goal.

Agreed anyone saying Boston/Buffalo series is a yawn obviously hasn't been watching any of it at all.
tbar Posted - 04/22/2010 : 06:57:22
Buffalo / Boston a yawn? I thought this has been one of the best series so far and I have no interest in either team. These guys are taking huge runs at each other throwin down the mits wearing their hearts on their sleves and to top it all off great goaltending. At least that is what im seeing.

A couple of the Pittsburgh/Ottawa games have come a close second, pretty entertaining hockey in the east I have to say. Not to take anything away from the west - I'd say Colorado/SJ has been pretty goodm, while Buffalo/Boston has been a yawn - but the tighter defence and less dangling makes for a slightly less exciting experience, and the Nashvill/Chicago series has disappointed.

it is possible Alex, but i'd still have to grudgingly admit that it was a good game. But certainly the canucks winning added to the Pile Of Awesome that was game 4. 5pts for the Sedins in the 3rd period alone!
Alex116 Posted - 04/22/2010 : 00:02:34
Yeah dude, i'd have to agree, but i'll admit, i've not seen as much of ANY series as i'd prefer to! Until the 3rd tonight, the Montreal / Washington game was pretty good! But yeah, the Van / LA game tonight was pretty good and i didn't even get to see the entire game!

Of course, i might be biased? If we'd lost, it'd prob be the worst game yet?
