Yeah, well....

Confidence level that Chicago wins their series: 99.99999999999%
Confidence level that the Wild win their series: 50% (maybe)

So there's that.

Ain't that the truth.
Winners win
Others worry about winning

Amazing to see how overmatched the Blue Jackets suddenly are.
The leagues best team a lot of the year, cant compete with Pittsburgh, even banged-up Pittsburgh.
The Oil bounced back last night, that will be a great series.
Montreal/NY just a bloodbath.
Milbury went OFF on Montreal last night, it was nuts. And well-deserved. He's not an Ott fan.

The Hawks have their collective hands full with the preds, but I thought that would be the case. They are a tough matchup for anyone. I think the Hawks will win tonight, and I think the Wild will win tomorrow, and start rolling against the blues.

Bruins go up 3-1 today after already taking game one
Ottawa doesn't quit, goes all-in and ties it and then wins it in OT
SOME teams know how to play (when desperate) ..... in this league.
Seeing you may LOSE YOUR FIRST TWO HOME GAMES usually stirs something in professional athletes, its called pride, I believe.
Unknown concept in this state, apparently.

Uh oh. I guess nobody told nashville that they were not as good as the Blackhawks. 3-0 with 12 minutes to go in the game. The horses better start scoring, or they are going to be fishing in early May.

Orpik wrecked Roman Polak last night. Clean, solid bodycheck that knocked Polak off his skates, but his leg got under his body when he went down. The Leafs are going to miss him, for sure.

Thanks Joe, you too!
Our teams sitting in the same spot after 2, but I have a feeling your team has a better chance to overcome the odds than ours does.....

Really fun to see the young outsiders busting thru the glass ceiling
Toronto is for real.

Great young talent on a couple classic franchises
Love Boyles role with Toronto. Coulda helped us.

Well, it looks like the Hawks want to hit the links early this season. 2-0 lead into the third, only to lose 3-2. And they will not win four in a row to win this series.

Ha! The matchup the NHL bosses always wanted. Imagine the ratings. On the plus side, the Toronto/Washington series is really fun to watch.

Agreed. Lot of good games this year across the board (except from our personal perspectives, of course)...

What an amazing night of hockey
I'd say best-ever

The Preds/Hawks game was an absolute boat race.
What amazing offensive attacks
Chicago fought like the champs they are
Nothing to be ashamed of Joe, I grew even more respect for them last night
Preds are playing something the Wild have never seen. It's a level completely different from us and St Louis.

I'd bet every dime I have that Dubnyk would have given up at least 8 goals to over half the teams last night.
Just an amazing night of comebacks and push backs

wow. McDavid is so quick with the puck. It seems like every time he gets the puck with some space, he puts a shot on goal. They've got a nice mix of young guys and vets on the oilers.

7-0. I went to bed when it was 3-0, but the oilers looked like they were still very much in the game. There's a lot of talent on the sharks. How good would Burns look in a Wild sweater, huh?
