Ron Hextall comes to mind, but i'm not 100% sure.

I'm pretty sure it was J.S. Giguere in 2003.

I think you are right.

A little anti climactic as the Canucks mailed it in again. Kudos to the Bruins who basically made them quit. I was dead wrong..I thought Vancouver could overcome Luongo's reversion to prior playoff form...also congrats to classy Vancouver fans for rioting after the game.:rolleyes:

I really don't think they mailed in last night. They continued to skate hard, but they did miss the net with alot of shots.

I also thought that Luongo was alright last night. Can't fault him for the first goal, the 2nd one was tough cause he put it in his own net, but that was after making a ridiculous save. At that point you got the feeling that they weren't coming back anyway.

It just came down to Thomas was much better than Luongo and the Sedin brothers should be on all milk cartons this morning.

I don't know..to me Vancouver stayed away from the from of Boston's goal, lost every battle for loose pucks and the Bruins skated past their defense almost at will. Bergeron going past Ehrhoff on the third goal was ridiculous as was D. Sedin's effort on the face off that led to the first goal. I never got the impression the Canucks were ever in the game. Most of that was Boston's doing, but wow, for a game 7 I thought the effort was brutal. (Except for a suddenly rejuvenated Ryan Kesler).

Pretty pathetic display by the city of Vancouver last night, that's for dang sure.

the kings just landed mike richards?!?

are you f'n kidding me? That was an awesome trade.

i know the flyers were up against the cap but i can't believe they let richards (and carter) go so cheap.

it's an awesome day for l.a. hockey fans.

People are still scratching their heads on the Richie trade. Carts put the writing on the wall himself with his disappearing act in the playoffs. I honestly think im the only person in all of Philly (besides the bartenders n broads he helped feel popular) tht liked Cartsy. It seems like during the playoffs tht i was heavily embroiled in about two arguments a day about him. People think tht getting rid of him is the answer---i say they're batshit crazy... The same people tht booed Mike Schmidtt, tough crowd..

i think you'll like schenn eventually. he's probably the best thing you got in the trade. he won't win you a cup in the next two years, but he's a great prospect. the kings development program right now is 60-70's era orioles or dodgers good.

I don't know, there's a better Richards on the market this offseason (Brad). Perhaps the Flyers will be targeting him? I know M. Richards was the captain and a leader and blah, blah, blah, but can the Flyers be a better team without him? Potentially.

Carter is by far, at least in my opinion, the more skilled player, though I think the Shenn kid has some serious potential.

i think there's a reasonable chance the kings also sign brad richards. we'll know after 7/1 but if they do...
