NHL Playoffs

It was a great game last night, and except for the second round in the East the hockey has been terrific throughout the playoffs. Unfortunately I think Tampa might have been a better match up against Vancouver. Don't see Boston getting more than one game..I hope I'm wrong and it's a long series.

Gotta agree with you on both accounts. Usually I'm against the B's (Wings fan) but now I have to root for them as an original six team. The hockey has been soooooooo much more exciting than the NBA for sure.

Not even a shot? I have 15-1 on the bruins.

Good luck, but even if Luongo reverts to his former playoff form of not being able to stop anything smaller than a city bus, I think the Canucks have too many horses and waaaaay too much team speed for the B's to deal with.

As much as I love the Saux and Tarheels, the Bs have always been my #1. My first hockey memories date back to the '72 Cup. It time for the 39 year drought to end. Bruins in 6!!!

Huge missed opportunity to steal Game 1 last night. And to give up the winning goal in the last 30 seconds.....

I thought that the Canucks were offsides.

A tremendous game from the opening face off. The Bruins might rue that they let that game get away. I hope they make it a long series..I'm not ready to start watching baseball just yet. As an Islander fan, I wish Pierre Maguire or someone else would congratulate Mike Milbury on trading away the first two stars of game one for essentially a used puck bag in seperate trades. His crowning achievement in hockey remains beating a Ranger fan with his own shoe.

(To forestall any question from Golfer, yes, I watched the whole game.)

That makes ONE of us.

Agree. Vancouver in 5.
