    His 14pts in the first round are the only points that matter

    :D

    I would think that many players from that series are in the top 10 in playoff scoring...neither team play defense till game 5

    Your boy Sidney games 5-6 zero points

    I think his head isn't right since the Malkin collision

    Giroux is a beast you should like him he's Canadian

    Yes I agree he wasn't right after that. I do like Giroux, if your goalie comes through your team has an excellent shot to get to the finals.

    As for Giroux I was thinking about how good our Olympic team will be in 2 years. Just need to find a goalie.

    Alfredsson back in the lineup tonight.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    #8 over #1 upsets since current format introduced in 1994:

    1994: San Jose 4, Detroit 3
    1995: NY Rangers 4, Quebec 2
    1998: Ottawa 4, New Jersey 2
    1999: Pittsburgh 4, New Jersey 3
    2000: San Jose 4, St Louis 3
    2002: Montreal 4, Boston 2
    2006: Edmonton 4, Detroit 2
    2009: Anaheim 4, San Jose 2
    2010: Montreal 4, Washington 3
    2012: Los Angeles 4, Vancouver 1

    Vancouver is first #1 seed to lose in less than six games.

    If Ottawa wins another game 2012 will be first year with both #1 seeds out in the first round.

    Concerned that captain Daniel Alfredsson may be playing out his final NHL season, a group of fans came up with a chant earlier this month to honour the team's long-time captain at every home game. When the game clock reaches 11:11 each period — Alfredsson wears No. 11 — the fans count down before repeatedly chanting "Alfie! Alfie! Alfie!" once it hits 11:00.
