Playoff Hockey

What a game, glad to see my Hawks take the first win of the series against the Sharks. Three more to go.

Would love to see a Hawks-Habs Stanley Cup series.

You are just asking to get all fired up when the fans of le Club de hockey Canadien boo the Star Spangled Banner. I have been tempted to drive to the border and scream obscenities at them.

Nice game today on the road for the Hawks. It is good to take back the home ice advantage, though Chicago has been more than impressive on the road lately.

Been a Sharks fan for a couple years now and I gotta say it's been good to see solid playoff performance after and aggressive season. Here's hoping for a Stanley Cup in SJ's favor!

Oh, the fans are rude but not as rude as the folks in Quebec.

Why yes...yes they do. But, not as much as they despise the Wings. Seriously I'm sick of the Pens, time for the Hawks to win.

I'll admit I used to be a very avid Devils fan. I would get into the games and get upset when they lost. But having been out of hockey for a number of years now I've slowly started watching less of it as well.

On the other hand, my passions have shifted from being a supporter of the Devils, to just an outright "I can't stand Crosby" fan. And the thing which killed me the most, he scores the winning goal against the US in the Olympics... just shoot me now.

Anyways, good games so far, I think the Flyers are gonna pull off their series unless Halat saves his team. As much as I disliked the Flyers, I've never actually seen a 3rd string goalie do so well.

As much as it pains me to say it, I think the Blackhawks are going to win it - especially after the performance by the Flyers last night...

I am a Flyers fan. I hate the Sharks. So guess who I'm rooting for?

If the Flyers make the Finals, I may have to go.

Habs Are A No Go

The Flyers are clicking right now, even after that loss, and they'll bounce back in game 4. As for the Sharks... ouch. They really are getting outworked. I picked San Jose and Philly as my pre-season matchup but it's not looking so hot. Chicago has the burners on and Byfuglien is playing like he's the 8 Million Dollar Man. San Jose Better pick it up if they want that elusive first Stanley Cup.
