my dad is playing rollerhockey tonight and im going to go to the game and see him play

[im_an_alien]

Cool. I like hocky. Is rollerhocky much different than ice hocky?

[Phil]

Kind of like it.

It's generally played on a smaller rink more like a roller rink. So it's not 200 X 85 its more like 140 X 60 So it's 4 on 4 instead of 5 on 5.

But yes it's mostly like ice hockey.

I would like to play hockey sometime.

I play little loop football, soccer and tball. this year i'm going to play haft t and half pitch ball.

How similar is rollerskating to ice skating. If you do one, can you do the other easily?

[Nitro God]

I don't really like hockey.

No, maybe not easy but some of the steps are the same and you wouldn't be starting from scratch. So once you learn to do 1 it would take less time to learn the other.

Viper, do you like any other sports?

I'm a Maple Leafs fan but I have not been to a game at all this year.

[Phil]

Isn't that nationally sacreligious?

[Hatson]

Yeah it is. lol I went to the Leafs game in Buffalo on Easter Sun but they got crushed 6-0. The Maple Leafs can't possibly make the playoffs now. A real bad year we need better goaltending.

[Phil]

The Penguins didn't have the best year this year either.

[Hatson]

With the Leafs out I have to stay for the Eastern Conference.

Montreal is spanking Carolina
Ottawa is spanking Tampa Bay

I am glad because both them are Canadian teams

Buffalo is leading Philadelphia
and I hope The Rangers beat the Devils but I don't think that will happen. But 3 of the 4 teams I wanted are ahead. not bad eh.

[Phil]

New Jersey Devils have already put the New York Rangers out,
Carolina now leads Montreal in that series.

The Senators have already eliminated the Lightning. No chance for a back-to-back there.

And The Edminton Oilers put out the mighty Detroit Red Wings.


Update-
The Hurricanes put out the Canadiens
and the Sabres put out the Flyers both those games were lastnight.

[Hatson]

Ottawa is the last Canadian team in the east left. But we have Edmonton over Detroit. Who would have thought that would happen?

[Kimm]

Thats why they play the games hatson because you just never know. And playoffs are a different thing alltogether from the regular season.

[Phil]

The Senators and the Devils are both a game away from falling out of the running.

Unless either of those teams can win 4 straight it's going to be a Sabres vs Hurricanes Eastern Conference.

The Oilers got themselves back in the running with a 3rd overtime win over the Sharks lastnight.

[Blastgirl]

Buffalo Beat Ottawa tonight so the Senators are gone.

That leaves the Sabres to play either Carolina or New Jersey. The Devils won tonight to keep their hopes alive.

Out West, Edmonton and San Jose are tied at two games a piece and Colorado got swept in four straight games by the Mighty Ducks.

So it's likely to Carolina playing Buffao in hte East, and It's going to be good out West to see who gets to play the Ducks.

[Hatson]

Carolina and Buffalo would be a good series.
