did you see Coach's Corner last Saturday? WTF was don Cheery talking about saying that the Bell hit was clean and the Cooke hit was dirty? Looked the other way around to me.

I'd like to see the Sens make it, but I think they're done first round :(

Gotta root for my Flames and Montreal :cool:

Also.....friggen Ottawa lost!  Grrrrrrrr!  Was a decent game overall, Pitsburg played really well, Ottawa only played good for liek 30 minutes....the first goal was crappy; thoght Roberts shoulda got called for that mugging on Redden, then that goal woulda been wiped out....oh well.

I only loosely follow hockey, but go Wild, I like their chances this year

I don't like Ottawa's chances this year. Pittsburgh is too strong and Ottawa is injury-riddled :(

Calgary stole one from SJ... hopefully they can take both games at home :)

Not sure they have the experience to get too far in the playoffs. Nervousness got them in the first game. And the Avs have been in this position many times and prevailed.

I did pick Minnesota in my pool, though

Yeah Mike, Ottawa has too many injuries....Kelly Fisher and Alfredsson are all out, and I bet if even one of them were back in the lineup it would help their chances drastically.  Though I will say, they sure were a damned sight better tonight that in game one, even though they lost again.  Hopefully they can bounce back......

Yeah, that was an impressive comeback. And how about that Caps game? Love how into it Ovechkin is

Wild won last night!  Great game, they took control in the 3rd period and then scored immediately in OT, hopefully they'll be upstart enough to take the series

Ovechkin?!  That was freaking insane.....the way he went apesh## after that last goal was priceless.  Reminiscent of the Selanne, shockey stick as shotgun celebration.

Friggen Ottawa!  Grrrr!  I love my team, but they gotta find a way to damned win!  It seems that Spezza and Heatley just want to take a nap out there.....what was the point of getting experience intrades, to squander it like this....?  Oh well......rant done.......for now.

Figured Ottawa would lose... didn't think it would be a sweep, though.

Let's hope Calgary can bounce back from that terrible loss in game 4 :(
