    I am pumped for the Pens game tonight!

    The first round of the NHL playoffs is the best couple weeks of the year... double headers every night, my wife is going to hate me for living in front of the TV.

    I didn't get to see many western conference games, but I am oddly excited to watch the Calgary/San Jose series for some reason.

    oh how i hope the dallas and anaheim series is on tv a lot! the rangers devils series should be good too. hopefully both teams lose ;) i'm curious to see how young mr. price does as well. personally, i'm hoping he pulls a MAF from last year.

    Nuts to you!

    All kinds of pressure on Price, but he seems to be pretty cool under fire. Hopefully MAF pulls a MAF and that will be that.

    I think the West is too much for any East team this year, but we'll see.

    I'm so tired of that complaint... I understand Murray is trying to motivate his team, but it's annoying.

    And it's even funnier when flyers fans say it... it's pretty embarrasing if a team is actually throwing a game and you only win 1-0 (plus an empty net).

    Avs in 6 over the Wild. I'm sure all the games will be close though.

    murray is probably the biggest asshole in the game, i hope he gets hit in the head with a slap shot. all he did was piss off the pens. and it is not a good time to do that. i can't wait for the USS Hal Gill to plow through everyone! gary roberts will have sex with all of the senator's wives as well.

    Roberts has a lot of 'go' to him. Can't say much for Gill though.

    Go Sens Go! Nobody is giving them much of a shot, but Pittsburgh is definitely beatable.
