    Good question

    Taking a team and doubling their wins from last year ya think would get you some kind of reward !

    That is pathetic

    the strange thing is that carey Price will not win the rookie of the year and they say that the reason is that he didn't play the whole season but Bruce who didn't coach the whole season is in the running being it the weakest division and they still did not get as many points as John Stevens did.

    It should be a good series

    The TV deal is may be playing into the Friday-Sunday deal ?

    NBC game ?

    True, the Sunday game is on NBC but they could have easily put Crysby and the Pens on Sunday. It doesn't matter, just seems like alot of days off between the end of the season and the first game, but I'd rather have that, then start the series and have 3 or 4 days off between games.

    How funny would it be to have the Sens knock the Pens out of the first round again.... :D

    I don't believe so.. think he's out for at least the first round.

    And I guess the league loves the Flyers-Caps matchup.. every game on Versus or NBC.

    Wow.

    Do you guys even watch hockey? Ovechkin has been promoted just as much as Crosby, and much more so this year given Sid's injury.

    And did you really think he would play Sunday? The Flyers are nothing but thugs through-and-through, and I'm glad that Pittsburgh doesn't have to face them in the first round simply because you guys would take cheap shots and probably take out half the team to make up for losing in 5 or 6.

    Anyways, the Caps should dominate assuming Ovechkin can avoid the swinging sticks and shots to the head that he will undoubtedly be treated with. But like the Pens showed (when playing full strength), all you need is a decent power play to win.

    And is "Crysby" the best that Flyer's fans can come up with?

    So jealous.
