AFAIK, the Audio stream is still Broadcasting a recoring from Game 6 Pre-game, dunno why though

[SkateZilla]

edit: they aired the normal Music Intro later.. lol

[SkateZilla]

Thourborn just dropped the gloves... w00t

[JD]

And he got beat down.

Peters is gonna fight Belak.

[SkateZilla]

I guess toronto is deciding to just be a Penalty leader this year...

[SkateZilla]

Toronto looks like an ECHL team,

I thought I had just stepped out of the Delorean when I started up the audio feed. :D

Toronto hasn't changed much from last year, in terms of being a disciplined team.

[SkateZilla]

oh yeah, im sticking with 2K this year,

played NHL 07 on the 360 at a friends house
and it just lags lags lags.. stutters worse than 2K6 did,, lol

2K7 is smooth, and i like the score overlay :)

[SkateZilla]

Toronto Got Owned By Half the Amerks... lol.....

Mike Ryan was a Force!

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

God it was great to hear RJ's voice again!

[pyrrhonist]

Absolutely. :up:

As long as Briere is ok, this was a successful game. :clap:
