So Bruins could be going to the semis after tonight. Do you think they will be the next to win their series or will it be someone else. Obviously I'm biased.

Can someone turn CNBC on and see if I'm the only one not seeing the game?

I'm about to lose it.

Are the Canucks still in there?

No, they were unfortunately swept by the sharks

So far it looks like this.

West:
Chicago beat Minnesota
Anaheim and Detroit tied 3 games to 3
Vancouver lost to San Jose
St. Louis lost to L.A.

East:
Pittsburgh leads New York (Islanders) 3 games to 2
Montreal lost to Ottowa
Capitals lead New York (Rangers) 3 games to 2
Boston Leads Toronto 3 games to 2

So far in the west there has been 2 lower seed upsets. In the east it isn't looking to good for any of the lower seeds.

I would like to extend my thanks to the St. Louis Blues for choking so hard.

Their loss ensures I'll have a nice pizza dinner at work.

Did you think the Blues were that much better than the Kings?

Unlike last year, this series was SO evenly matched.

Enjoy your pizza dinner! Now... I gotta pick a team to root for in this playoff... any ideas?

Well don't cheer for the Wings right now. Don't need that bad mojo on us at the moment.

Cheer for the west please, I don't need your mojo in the East (Unless you're going to root for the Penguins)

Penguins! THat's a fun team two watch!

'Wings v. 'Hawks.

Let the games begin.

Time for some original 6 fun. This should be a great series. Will be an awesome way to close out our time in the West.

I can't believe that Boston has squandered a 3-1 series win. Really hope they can pull it out in game 7.

Play-Off hockey. Toronto is no slouch. It'll be an interesting evening with two game 7's.

Traditionally, I wouldn't root for the 'Hawks... 'cuz... we're supposed to hate them. But, lately, it's more of the "friendly rivalry" nature. Plus, they're playing awesome.

As to the Wings... they're the underdog and I like root'n for the underdog... but, dayum I'm having flashbacks when Yzerman scored from the blue line in '99-'00 playoffs that knocked out probably the best Blues team ever.

Can't decide....

I'll just watch 'em hoping for some good games then.

Die hard Blues fan here is going for the Wings. But that's cause he lost a $200 bet with a Blackhawks fan that St. Louis would go further in the play-offs.

Oh, hey there, Caps. Thanks for giving me nightmares about yet again watching you guys fumble out in the first round after a hope-raising regular season.

I personally hope they choke. I can't stand Ovechkin. Overpaid punk. Your team shoulda ripped that C right off his jersey this year.

I wish the Sens weren't playing the Penguins in the second round. I'd like to not have yet another fething Pittsburgh team decimating a team I cheer for... I seriously hope the Sens v Pens regular season record isn't a sign of the times to come. :-\

Did you not at all watch his play for that majority of the regular season? "Stars" don't act like it's trouble to get on the ice and earn your paycheck.

I did. He's up for a couple of awards due to his regular season play. He started slow, that's for sure, but more than made up for it.

At least the browns went 1-1 against the steelers last season

Hate you so much right now

Okay... I just gotta share this joke with ya.

I want the Blues players to be my pallbearers when I die... so that they can let me down one last time.

Agreed.

Whether or not the 'Hawks win, this is the series I was hoping for.

I think they vindicated themselves very well. Well done.

So. Caps lost another Game 7.

I'm not sure why I hold out hope that they'll stop doing that at least once before I die.

They have the same saying for Browns fans too

Also heard something that I don't think will be possible, but Stanley Cup finals... San Jose Sharks v Ottawa Senators, the 2 smallest market shares in the NHL... While I'd love to see Ottawa in the finals, I don't see that happening... also it's a Sens game day baby! (In... Pittsburgh D: )
