    Anyone know a good bar in Houston to watch the Stars? There has to be some place where Dallas transplants get together...

    yeah so i had just gotten back from witnessing UT's 20th no hitter of it's history and decided to check the dallas/SJ score. noticed it was in OT, so i just listened to it and then BOOM. about 30 seconds after i turned on my speakers, we were up 3 games to 0.
    lets go stars

    We're meeting again at Legends for the game tonight. We had about 50 folks come out last night. I'm hoping for a similar crowd tonight. Look for the guy with long hair and glasses, that's me.

    I went to the game last night. First playoff hockey game I've been to. Badass is an understatement. The Erwin center was never even half as loud as it was at times last night.
     
  12. Thanks Matty!

    A very timely goal so I could finish watching the Spurs close out PHX.

    I don't want to jinx anything but it looks like it will be Stars vs Redwings in one hellacious Western Finals.

    GO STARS!!

    Tonight's game is very important. The Stars need to muster a win. They need to close this thing out now that Detroit has obliterated the Avs.

    They did look tired, but so did San Jose until Zubov's turnover. It was a complete game-changer. I fully believe that if Richards' shot off the crossbar moments earlier had been an inch lower this series would be over. But it wasn't, and it's not.

    With that said, the Sharks haven't scored more than 2 goals in a game this series yet, and I don't expect them to tonight either.

    not sure why VS is not in HD...but they need it up in the replay booth...that was a goal by Morrow and they took it away. That was not a kicking motion. [​IMG]

    God Zubov is just brutal in the defensive zone.

    What a joke! That call looked like a call in a David Stern ran league. The only difference is these refs even had the benefit of a very clear video slow motion replay. Also, Versus is in HD. At least on DISH.

    For what it is worth you can call 212-789-2000 to contact the NHL League offices. I left a message for Bettman with my phone number on it. I wonder if I get a call back.

    I don't often (or ever?) blame the game on the refs/officials/whatever, but that was ******* ridiculous. Horse ****.
