The replay is currently on FSD for anyone who missed the crazy action! 11:30 left in the 1st. Currently chanting 'dirty mullet' and the commentator said something about the "Past your bedtime" chant from the U-18 games

I think they skip intermissions too, which is cool

I absolutely LOVE the way Lynch has finally broken out. It took forever, but he scored and just kept on going. It's like 'how Kevin Lynch got his groove back'

Also the PP scoring!

I was in the student section, and I think I almost killed a girl when I lifted her after Hagelin scored the game winner, cause she was trying to jump as I tried to put her down :p

Place went absolutely f***ing insane! BEST GAME EVAH!

I just saw the highlights on mgoblue. I thought Carl's game winner got tipped somehow. I did not know how much of a snipe that was!!!

Did anyone watch sportscenter? If that wasn't a top ten play then I will boycott ESPN for putting 5 routine dunks (with one or two good ones) every f-ing day. Oh you mean your team is up/down by 50 points and you dunked it? CONGRATS. That game winner is so deserving of a top replay spot. The game should at least make the show.

I haven't used twitter in a while but I'll gladly do it. Would it matter? would they see how many people do and it's better? I'm not up on retweeting.

However, even though he made the account just now, he is 100% right. SC's "top play of the day" is from a dunk contest. A CONTEST. NOT A GAME.

[obligatory not a game, we talkin about practice, not-not-not a game... practice! reference]

But seriously, I like bball, but I ABSOLUTELY HATE DUNK HIGHLIGHTS. Hockey is in season right now, it's not only bball, so the top ten shouldn't feature 9 dunks and 1 obscure badminton highlight. It pisses me off all the time. Also, grudge on Blake Griffin from beating us in the tourney so I rarely enjoy watching him on the top ten, but I'll admit sometimes he belongs there. But the other ones are usually shit.

If that play isn't better than a freaking contrived, choreographed dunk contest then I don't know what is, but we don't deserve the NHL in our country and should send all teams (except Detroit and canadian teams) to Sweden.

I retweeted your tweet instead of his. If I understand this correctly, we need 3 more people to retweet your tweet, and it will be the 3rd most popular tweet containing "sportscenter," and appear at the top when someone searches "sportscenter."

I just saw that the #3 play was a college hockey game. But it was some team (BC or Minnesota, I don't remember, I just know the colors) who shot the puck from their own goal line off a faceoff and the dumbass goalie was picking his nose or waving at his mom or eating a sandwich or something and it went in. That's rare but not a top play damn it. At least not better than ours. Maybe tomorrow's plays, it might be too late to add it to todays?

I didn't count the number of dunks, because I didn't feel like samurai kicking my TV. It was somewhere around 6-7 if I estimate correctly though. Maybe even freaking 8

and i cant blame espn for skipping our highlights, they need to save room for the same slam dunks to show in every damn top 10 with the arbitrary Any Blake Griffin Dunk to go at #1 to fill space before summer when they can fill the top 10 with several of  the Totally-Not-The-Same-As-The-Last-3-Plays Outfielder Diving Catch
