    Praise to baby Jesus that our company declared Good Friday a holiday after watching a 3 OT blues vs Blackhawks game with my Blues crazy best friend last night. Just waking up now and I don't think I would have made it into work on time otherwise.

    Go Wings!

    Montreal deserves to be up 2-0 ... they just need to keep it going at the bell center, no let up and no repeat of the Boston series a few years ago.

    Milan Lucic deliberately took his stick and swung it in an upward motion and nailed Danny Dekeyser right in the nuts from behind.

    There are lots of dirty moves I've seen but that one takes the cake. I'd rather get kicked in the nuts from behind the have someone swing a wooden sword into my nuts from behind.

    Who does that?

    Lucic has always been a dirty little fucker and then you throw Chara in the mix and it's just a dirty play hoedown. Didn't think it was possible to hate Boston more than I already did but those two fuckers make it possible.

    Hey if anyone is in the DC area I have a BUNCH of autographed Caps stuff from when I worked for them. Hit me up if anyone is interested in a trade.

    I'm pulling for the Ducks! I hope Bruce gets his Cup, he deserves it.

    Yeah, I watched the game last night and am hoping there's supplemental discipline from the league:

    NHL has to do something. This goes beyond the NHL rule book. This is a severe violation of Dude Code. And Nard Code.

    That would infer that Boston was ever classy... although Thomas was, felt bad for that guy when he played for them.

    Lucic did the same thing to Montreal's Emelin less then a month ago! Although at 1/10th of the power he was trying to turn Dekeyser into an eunoch, you can still see the devastating affect. ...

    The NHL is a dirty sport to a degree ... that's life. Every game has its share of cheap shots.

    Cheap shots maybe. But not nut shots. I've never seen anyone do something like that. I can handle a cheap shot. Trying to de-nut someone goes beyond what is considered dirty gamesmanship.

    First nut shot you've ever seen? It has happened enough ... it's the only team sports that condones fighting, allows guys to pile into one another after a whistle, has no problem with guys running around after each other after clean hits are delivered and then say "he sticking up for his team mate ... I didn't see the game, did anyone come go and stick up for Danny boy. I've been saying eliminate the instigator rule and cheap shots and concussions will drop ...

    Nut shots have been around for a while. Goalies are the worst offenders of this with guys standing on the top of the crease.

    But yeah, it does go way beyond dirty gamesmanship.
