Hawaii, Alaska, Maine, Alaska. Very close! Hawaii, Alaska, Alaska....and, drum roll, Alaska! Alaska's Aleutian islands cross over 180th meridian into the Eastern hemisphere. ha! trick question!

first goal in over 8 games for robertson.
stars will have to get that guy scoring if they're going to advance.
to be fair he's second on the team with 10 assists and he finished 10th league-wide in the regular season in assists, but the guy's a goal scorer first and foremost.

Game is on espn+ whereas the main channels have wnba games.
Shows how little the NHL is worth to them. espn is a clown network.
At least it's on abc network, I forgot it's Sunday.

Tough to stop when you get 2 minors on the same shift.

I was going to get comfy for a 3 period OT.

The trend continues in both conference finals. All 4 games go to overtime, and the largest lead has been 1 goal!
So far, one of the best pair of conference finals ever

Oettinger and Adin Hill making my pick (Stars in 6) look bad

Man, I forgot it was an early game and missed it. I hate missing even one. Had a nice day at the park with my dog though (wife was working).

Had a nice day at the park with my dog though (wife was working). 2 a.m. start here. by chance, i happened to get up for a whiz right before puck drop but cratered on the couch for pretty much whatever followed the first intermission. hopefully it was the last afternoon game of the 2022/23 season.

I knew it started at noon, so I figured it would be over when I woke up. as it turns out, I turned on the tube just before OT started... as far as afternoon games go, I thought it was pretty lame to make Vegas have a noon home game. seems like the east finals would be better suited for early starts, but what do I know...

So will we continue to see 1 goal leads as the max for the conference finals? So far, the 2 series can't get anymore competitive. I'm going with Dallas in this game.

can't imagine a dumber penalty than the one benn took there. what a great captain he is. what a dumb, dumb penalty. works for me, though. I want a Vegas/Florida Final. first time winner is guaranteed. I think he plays the next game, though. if Petro got one game for his very late 5 and the gate vs Edmonton, then Benn gets to play the next game.

Maybe the hottest Finals in history. Miami and Vegas are not very cool this time of year. Could be 110 in Vegas and a humid 95 in Miami.
Also. Ottinger has been terrible in this series. Just awful!!!

Benn wasn't around to face reporters after the game. Some captain.
Thought this was a good line from hill.
Couldn't watch most of the game. Saw the replay of domi's little tantrum. I'd love him back but those dumb penalties he takes are part of the package i think. Pity about the fans losing their shit in dallas...hate to see that shit anywhere. (other than st. Louis maybe)

There are some dumb fucks in the NHL and some Neanderthals. I can't make up my mind which one Benn is; or if he is both.

And Pittsburgh swept the Hawks to end up with an 11 game winning streak. Game 1 turned with Hawks leading 4 to 1 and then Jagr danced around the whole team. Games 3 & 4 at home where 1 goal games with game 4 a 1-0 shutout loss. Maybe Hawks win game 1 different outcome.

2 game suspension for benn. this quote...did he say it with a straight face? Since he said that after the 2 game suspension was imposed, the league, if it had any guts and if it was really interested in player safety, should have suspended the mfer for another 30 games. He is a complete asshole and I don't want to hear about how he is generally a good guy and how this was an aberration. He is a complete asshole and should be gone for half the season next year for what he did and how he responded. But, this fucked up league won't do a damn thing after he cross checks a guy in the neck. C'mon what does some asshole in this league have to do to get a real suspension. Bring an AK-47 to a game and unload on the fans?

Larkin missed the rest of the season after Benn did the same to him...

Larkin missed the rest of the season after Benn did the same to him... I didn't know that. So, he is a repeat offender for the same type of offense and the fucked up NHL gives him 2 games. Someone should cross check Bettman in the neck 3 or 4 times, so he gets some idea what the hell is happening out there. What a totally fucked up league the NHL is when it comes to punishing those who ruin the game. I don't get the end game of ignoring these horrible offenses. I can totally understand how Texas would not dare prosecute him since it is run by a governor who wants to pardon a convicted murderer because he killed a black guy during a Black Lives Matter protest. But, for the league not to protect its players is pure bullshit and shows that the NHL has no moral code.
