    What a game last night between the Sens/Pens. The game went into triple OT and both goalies were fantastic. Good luck Sens! You can do it.

    CAPS are out! What a shocker! Canadiens came back from a 3-1 deficit to win in game 7 B]2-1[/B]. Halak was the difference maker. Zinho must be proud!

    Holy F***! The Penguins are out of the playoffs! Habs did it, again. An 8th seed in the third round is an incredible feat. Philly came back from a 3-0 deficit to tie it up with their back-up keeper! AMAZING! Zinho must be celebrating with his posse.

    Anyone see this?

    Who you got? I think San Jose will win it all now.

    I'm changing my pick. Philadelphia look like a gritty fore-checking team, remind me of the Anaheim Ducks that beat the Senators a few years back.

    San Jose VS Chicago
    Philadelphia VS Montreal


    Three original six teams vying for the Stanley Cup.

    SJ are on the verge of elimination. Poor team can't buy a cup. Blackhawks look really good, not relying on their keeper but offensive pressure.

    *Canadiens beat Flyers to put the series 2-1. It should be an interesting series.

    It has always been that way! It usually ends in the first week of June but NHL does need to do a better job scheduling games, they can't compete against the NBA. Versus is making a killing with hockey - The ratings are at an all-time high this season.

    Go Blackhawks! They defeated the Sharks today 4-2 to eliminate San Jose. what impresses me the most is their balance and they don't have to rely on Niemi (Goalie).

    Now onto the Stanley Cup Finals: Chicago VS. Canadiens/Flyers (Flyers lead 3-1)

    What a wild game! Chicago comes out on top 6-5 in a brutal match for both goalies.

    Don't have to rely on Niemi? Umm, they absolutely relied on Niemi. He made Nabakov look like an amateur.

    Philly is down 2-0. I'm still pushing for Philly. Fuck chicago

    Tonight they did, but he was shaky in the first game. I just think Chicago has way more depth and skill, Flyers are not fore-checking like they mostly do, and leighton has been shit.

    Islanders prospect John Tavares with three goals tonight against the Buffalo Sabres. His second career hattrick. He dedicated it to his mother.

    JT is looking good, and how about another NHL porkchop, Mike Ribiero, in Dallas!

    Stars are looking really good this season, at the expense of my beloved SJ Sharks, unfortunately. :D

    The Leafs' and Kings' both are struggling... Just brutal! What is the deal with concussions? The league needs to do something about it.

    Luso - Canadian ADAM HENRIQUE scored the Game winning goal in Game 7. The second time he has eliminated a team. Devils will face the Kings in the finals.

    Kane/Hawks are a legit. Down 3-1 to come back and tie the series. Game 7 is on Sunday. Whoa! Kings/Hawks is a classic series.

    Somos, Congrats to your NT Rangers! 20 years is a long time.

    La Kings defeated the Hawks in OT in a thriller series. Kings are building a dynasty. Great team.

    Rangers vs Kings in the finals. NHL must be very happy. All about the money.

    Great game 7

    Actually, a Chicago vs NY would have been a better match up for the NHL.

    The TV watch share in LA was about a 4 while in Chicago it was a 24.
    The NHL gets a huge TV audience in the Chicago area than LA.

    Anyways, as a Leaf fan I really couldn't care who wins. I'm just looking for some good hockey.

    Like I say every year, if the Leafs can't win it, then anybody but the Habs.

    Yeah, I live in LA for the summer and the buzz isn't all that, it's more Lakers & Dodgers. But what LA is doing is incredible, both Hawks/LA are dynasties. LA has made the finals 2 out of the three years, Hawks beat them last year.

    Leafs have a good farm team but their asset management sucks. I think they are a few years away in getting pieces and sometimes a big trade can help like what happened to LA.

    I like LA over NY but it would not surprise me if Rangers win.
