i think you can just pack it in grizzlies. there is no way we are coming back after these two losses to vegas. scott burt is already playing golf in his head back in idaho not playoff hockey. huge dissapointment all playoffs for me. i really expected more from him after winning with idaho last season and the way he talked in the begining like he was all this team needed. what a let down. it takes more than two assists to win a championship scott! get it together tonight or go back where your head is.

Sorry Utah fans, the cinderella run ends here. The Wranglers brought the brooms along to Utah with them Nice playoff season, but maybe next year!
Come to the E Center tonight! | 10:24 a.m. May 15, 2008
Let's show some support for these guys! The Conference Finals are a big deal. I know it isn't the Jazz, but it is some really good playoff hockey. Tickets start at $11 and there isn't a bad seat in the house. Let's show the team that we are behind them!

If Utah loose Game 3 tonite, it will be over. They're a good team, which you should never underestimate, but as a Wranglers Fan from the Beginning and even been to the E-Center in 2005, I've seen that the Grizzlies can play Hockey. But after a good nite, they're will fall and loose big time like in 2005 or the last times they're played Las Vegas. The Wanglers are taken the Cup this year and even a bad Grizzly can't do nothing about it.

It will be the Wranglers Vs. Cyclones in the Finals. Wranglers in 7

Do not underestimate a team that is desperate for a championship! Both Utah and Las Vegas have the fire and intensity it takes to make it to the top, now for the fun part, watching the two battle it out. Tonight, I am sure that the Grizzlies will put up a great fight, heck, they may even win. I do not understand why everyone is already counting them out, that is definitely not a smart move folks. This is the toughest series both teams have faced and I wish all the luck to both teams, at least it's not Alaska or Idaho in the Conference Finals.

Well the Uath team has put up a good fight but after watching both game I know that Las Vegas Wranglers are going to take the series. The Wranglers are on a mission to show Uath that they came to play for keeps and Ferraro,Cracknell,Fraser,
Limpright,Seitsonen,Czuy,Madill,Mosienko,Miller and the rest of the team are going to keep peppering Mole, Lawson until the goals read Las Vegas Wins another game and Uath is on its way out. To Mole you'll never stop the Las Vegas Fans from saying Mole,Mole,Mole,Mole just like Auston Powers did in he movie. HA HA HA.

I'd never count my Wranglers out like that.... Utah fans are different I guess.... I've seen some amazing comebacks here, GO WRANGLERS

The Grizzlies dominated the first period of game two with almost three times as many shots on goal as the Wranglers. And Mole's save percentage was actually higher than Lalande's. And Labelle, Haley and Sanford (who's been so exciting to watch during playoffs) came through with a great clutch play. So Grizzlies, give us a little more of that please! And Wranglers fans, your taunts would be ever so much more hurtful to us if you used better spelling and grammar. And finally, Grizzlies fans, make some noise, please! Bring some of your Jazz fan friends if you must. Let's be the seventh man tonight!

Be realistic here. The Wranglers made it to the Playoffs 4 times in 5 years and always struggled on Alaska or Idaho. This year, Alaska did us a favor to eliminate Idaho and then got send home from us. We came now so far, nobody will stop us to take Kelly Cup from us, even not a feisty Grizzlies Team. They're will say good bye with honors and will fight even harder on home ice.

Your Alaskan fans WITH cowbells! | 9:23 a.m. May 16, 2008
Okay Utah...Don't let Wrangler fans get under your skin. Alaska Aces fans are ringing cowbells for you, something unforunately Wranglers will never see, they use mac n cheese. Don't give up that cup. WE believe Utah! Come on Bourne, Lawson, and Johnson...we know you can do it. Git 'er done Ian Forbes...go for it!!
