CanuckInUSA 0 #1 April 25, 2003 Peter Sykora of the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim score one minute into the 5th overtime period to beat the Dallas Stars 4-3. And I believe that this was 4th longest game in NHL history. It's wierd/cool watching a hockey game that last 7+ periods. Oh, the Ducks scored a goal during the 3rd OT period, but it was disallowed due to the net being dislodged prior to the puck entering the net. I thought it was a bad call, so I was happy when the Ducks scored the real winner. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 April 25, 2003 BUT that was game one, still plenty of time to kick the Duck's asses!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #4 April 25, 2003 The game was incredible! I was working, and I didn't end up being able to watch that game until ten minutes left in the third. I was talking t a friend of mine and predicted overtime. I didn't think it would go that long. Too bad the Lakers were also playing. It took some convincing, but I got the bartender to leave the Ducks game on one of the T.V.'s so that a couple of my friends and I could watch it. The Laker fans had no idea why the wild cheering erupted...twice. The Ducks are for real (God, it hurts to say that. I'm an LA Kings fanatic). Giguerre is the real deal. Problem is, so are the Stars and Marty Turco. Should be an amazing series. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it was a bad call, so I was happy when the Ducks scored the real winner. I agree, that goal should have counted! When it was dissallowed a bad taste was left in my mouth concerning the consistency of hockey. The NHL feverishly is trying to gain viewers to par with the big 3. There is no consistency in the sport, at least on a professional level. I never thought that instant replay and the two-ref system would actually make the game more blinding. Maybe, I am just a perfectionist....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #6 April 25, 2003 Quote Didnt the Ducks knock Detroit out? As AggieDave pointed out, it's only one game. But the Ducks have had an incredible playoff run to date. Four straight wins to sweep the defending champs and now a marathon win against the heavily favored Stars. I'm now cheering for the 'nucks to win it all (since the Habs and Avs are out of it), but I'll also accept anyone just as long as it's not Joisey or Dallas.

jlmiracle 7 #8 April 25, 2003 I was obsessed with Mike Modano. I kinda stalked him at a celebrity golf game in Minnesota. I can't watch hockey anymore.JudyBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the Ducks stay the same the Devils and their patient style might be the only team that can beat them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #10 April 25, 2003 An even more frightening thought: They quit selling beer at the arena at the start of the third period. Thus, the whole arena was sober by the end of the second overtime. What a miserable experience!!! Sober at a damned sporting event??? My wife is hotter than your wife.
