Torres should be gone for the rest of the playoffs, that hit was so dirty. Expected from an ex Vancouver player. I lost respect for Phoenix now and Washington. With Dale Hunter as the coach, can't say anything nice about them.

Yea I was rooting for phoenix on the fact that they had a decent chance and Smith has been playing unreal, but after a dirty hit like that on a top star I hope chicago destroys them in this series.

It's nice to see physical games, but this year is over the top. I'm sure it will bring in high ratings from those who don't watch the game year round and aren't big fans, but for me it detracts from some of the skill and the game itself.

mafishman1 has a reputation beyond repute

I agree slord. I used to always like physical play and big open ice hits. You don't get any of that any more. It's just fighting. I would rather see intense mulit-overtime thrillers with good skill hockey being played.

It's called soccer. You can't compare soccer to hockey.

I love it, if its too soft you get diving coming into the game too much. Pens & flyers has been the best series to watch in a while. We prefer the cdn game.
