    It looks like the 2 series in the west are going 7 !

    I love long playoff series when its not my team ;)

    I can watch and just enjoy it and not be stressed out

    That would be cool... other teams could do it as well... Avalanche/Nordiques, Coyotes/Jets, Flames/Atlanta Flames, Devils/Rockies or Scouts... I'm sure that there are a few others.

    you giving up on the B's already?

    (I know, you spend time in DC ... just bustin' your nuggets)

    Speaking of the B's, again, I cannot see them on TV, probably for the better, it jsut seems from the blog entries I'm reading they are being vastly outplayed. They need this one to even up the series ... c'mon Bruins!

    Oh hell no I'm not giving on them ever, I love them. I'm back home here in Maryland but I root for the Caps till they play the Bruins. BTW why isn't the B's game on. I just came back from an errand and I can't find the Celtics or the Capitals game, where are they?

    If you think that there is a chance in hell that Ovechkin is going to be suspended for that, you are crazy.

    No shot he gets suspended

    If it wasn't him who did the knee-on-knee that's a 5 min major and a game

    There is no way that was intentional. Penalty? Yes. Suspension? No.

    x2.

    x3

    I'm not even sure if he should... some replays look worse than others.... but to think that the league will take Ovechkin out of a playoff game, is a joke.

    The thing that annoys me, if it was a scrub player hitting a star like that, then there would be a suspension...

    While the knee on knee wasn't intentional, you have a point there.
