More predictable on the western side of the aisle:

Sharks beat Avs in 6
Hawks lead Preds 4-3 at the end of the first. Good game.
Canucks came up big to beat Kings in 6
Coyotes/Red Wings going to Game 7 tomorrow.

So....if the Caps win the Flyers play the Caps and if the Caps lose the Flyers play the Bruins.....right ?

Caps win:

#1 Caps vs. #7 Flyers
#4 Penguins vs. #6 Bruins

Caps lose:

#4 Penguins vs. #8 Canadiens
#6 Bruins vs. #7 Flyers

I love the way the NHL re-seeds in the conference semifinal round.

With all our injuries I think we would do better against the Bruins.

As a Bruin fan I never thought I would say it, but go Canadians.

It is time for the Predators to fire Barry Trotz.

Its time for the refs to stop picking sides. They completely screwed Buffalo over. technically outside of Game 2. We had Boston.

Yeah, the Sabres got hosed for sure. But they didn't play that great, either, against a team that they should have beaten. Oh well, next year...?

Why? He's a darn good coach! Do you blame him for the loss?

[beachmouse]

Trotz and the Nashville management do an excellent job of fielding a competitive team year after year given the limitations of being a small market team. They've been much more consistent than Miami, Columbus, and Atlanta over the years among teams of more recent vintage, and, save for Tampa's Cup year, have been consistently better than the 'Ning in recent years.

The Red Wings shifted to a new gear last night, leaving the Coyotes in their dust! The Coyotes were impressive, but this series ended up with the right result. Wings over Sharks in 6 or 5!
