I must say Dustin Penner has been a beast in these playoffs. Where the **** was he during the regular season?

wow. talk about reading comprehension and stuffz.

I will talk very slow for ya k?

MLB: Once Playoff start in baseball ANYTHING goes as far as who wins the World Series. This is a fact.

It's also a "fact" in every sport. That's what the word "fact" means. I figure a man of such intelligence that passed the bar would know that.

NHL: Usually the better team(s) with descent seeds win the cup as no 6th seed or worse has won the Stanley Cup EVER

So to make the generalization that just get in and you have a chance in the NHL is fucking moronic, and thats being nice.

Its true in baseball.

Anything else? your a good wingman for hawkwriter, i admire your effortz and stuffz.

Well, other than the fact that you got into your obnoxious condescending tone again, there's a problem with what you mentioned.

The LA Kings, this year, by MLB's format, wouldn't even have made the playoffs. Baseball uses 4 seeds per conference/league/whatever.

When you play a 162-game schedule, you weed out the weaker teams. Only good teams typically make the playoffs. That means, out of those four teams, there's less of a disparity in overall talent than there would be between the 8 teams in an NHL playoff. There's more of a chance for "anything" to happen in the NHL because the talent gaps between the teams are greater. A 4-seed beating a 1-seed is not that big of a deal. An 8-seed beating a 1-seed? Big deal. Doesn't matter how it happened, who the teams were, or what happened in the series. Just happened in the NBA, too, and it was a damn big deal there as well.

thats great that you wasted energy writting all that when Im NOT arguing that the leagues are different.

if someone says "get in and anything can happen" in hockey is foolish.

in baseball it is fine.

again not arguing the variables, arguing the statement.

Yet an 8-seed is going to the Cup finals (let's just cut the formalities) and you still won't back away from your point. You spent the months of March/April clamoring for the Hawks to avoid the 8-seed because they'd have no chance of making it to the Cup. Now a team is doing that but just because they're not a "typical" 8-seed, you're somehow vindicated.

You never said anything like that back in March. That's not the argument.

yeah because I wasnt talking about the fucking Kings I was talking about the hawks the whole time. You make no sense.

this coming from a guy saying " coyotes never advanced in the playoffs since moving to phoenix" as one of your reasons why the hawks would win the series.

I mean, take a look at what you wrote on icehogs VM a few months back and explain to me how you aren't flip flopping on this situation. The kings had potential but here is a fact, they are an 8th seed...the exact type of seed that had no chance according to you.

Because you continually said that about every lower seed team.

After the Kings beat the Canucks I said something like, "this is why I love the NHL playoffs, where every team has a chance to win it all". You then went on to say that wasn't true and lower seeds don't have a chance bcuz of history. All of a sudden that has changed...

Once again for the deaf, blind and stupid: The kings are not your typical 8th seed. if you are an idiot fan than you will look at the standings casually and say "well they are an 8th seed so they must be your typical 8th seed team"

once again you are missing the point and trying to twist words which you fail at. Im sorry that you dont understand the whole entire point, I really am.

How am I trying to twist words? The Kings are an 8th seed. Fact. You have said that lower seeds don't have a chance at winning. Fact.

So Kane isn't elite because of potential but the Kings are better than an 8th seed because of their potential? Hmmm

now you are really twisting words.

Real 8th seed teams dont stand a chance. FACT

here is were you are a complete fucking moron as usual: You use the Kane Elite arguement and debate, its too bad that we arent in the past with the kings when they were really bad, because that is what you are trying to say with the arguement with the kings. We are in the present, and we are seeing the skills of a very good team actually come to life. with Kane we are still in the "potential" stage and we dont know what is going to happen with him, but we do know what is going on with the kings...they are playing amazing. so your comparison is idiotic at best and fails once again.

rewind to when kings where bad: " I think the kings can win the cup on "potential" I think they are a championship team based on "potential" <<<<<< that right there would be the kane arguement, but its too bad im not doing that.

failed again. keep trying though. this is entertaining.
