Your Flyers took it so you're probably excited at this point ;).Quote:

I hope the Sharks/Stars series doesn't turn into a penalty-fest like what happened in the last game of the season.
Well... I'm officially cheering for the Sharks in the West. I hate the rest of who's remaining.Quote:

His ego is going to have him start thinking that he's a 50 goal scorer again worth $6 million per year and have him playing the role of spoiled diva again.
I have to give him props... he did have an amazing game! But I think that it's the exception for him over the long haul... not the norm. I don't expect him to be shoing the same dominance that he did with Chicago in the early 90's. And there is every possibility in the world that he'll let that game allow him to start thinking that he's the greatest thing to ever happen to hockey again.
I hate that I'll be cheering for a team that he happens to be a part of... LOL!
I'm a huge Roenick fan, I love that he's enjoyed such a resurgence in SJ.
Avs versus Redwings. WOOOHOOO! yea baby best rivalry ever back at it. Heck yea!
Back to the days of Vernon and Roy taking a fight to center ice.. One of the coolest hockey moments ever..Quote:

Anybody see Roy's son dish out the beatdown in juniors? The other goalie looked like he wanted no part of it but got PUMMELED anyways.
Jeez, Patty has a kid old enough to fight? I am getting old.
I think my team is headed for disaster vs Montreal, but I'm proud of them for even getting into the playoffs at all.
It will however be amusing to watch 20,000+ french canadians boo Danny Briere every time he does anything, as they did in both regular season games up there. I'm going to say Habs in 6.
Philly did well this year after the disaster that was last year. A nice improvement! I wonder what they'd done if Gagne was healthy?
My predictions fior this next round:
Montreal over Philly
Pittsburgh over Rangers
Detroit over Colorado
San Jose over Dallas
I don't like the Rangers at all, but I'll have no problem pulling for them to stomp Pittsburgh. I think NY is the more complete team, but the pens have such incredible top line scoring that Lundqvist is going to have to be amazing to see it through. Rangers in 6, this is the **** that Avery was born for. He's going to have Crosby begging for his mommy.
The Avs and Detroit will be another great series. Colorado has been playing lights-out and Adam Foote is looking like an old-guard stopper from hell. The avs are a nice reunion story. The Wings are a powerhouse like always, both teams can score. I think this one will boil down to whichever defense keeps it's head on straight. Lidstrom in other words, so Wings in 7.
I think SJ /Dallas is a complete toss up. Both have made the right deadline pick-ups for their squad to succeed, both have good D and goal keeping. I give SJ an edge on offense, although the Stars have really surprised everyone the last couple of months in that regard.
The funny thing about Philly and the Habs will be to see how hard they try *not* to get penalized. We're talking about the #1 and #2 powerplays in the league, so composure and discipline will win it here. And that's why the Flyers will probably be golfing soon. They've been eating **** from the refs all year, and guys like Downie and Hartnell get called for sneezing at other players based on reputation. So, MTL is going to score a pile of goals on the PP, and out goes Philly. /excuses:D
I'm going to the Avs/Red Wings game on Tuesday! Snatched a couple tickets for only 47 bucks each this is going to be awesome!
Holy Crap!Quote:
