Its nice to see my boys winning in all situations this series. Nothing puts a smile on my face more than Pat Kane on the verge of tears after a spanking at home. We're taking this series in 4. We're clicking on all cylinders. I sure hope they dont run another suspension on Torres for his hit on Seabrooke. Watching it live I didnt think it was a bad hit at all, but on more review it was a shoulder to the head which they're trying to rule out. But I think Brad May put it best when he made the point that just years ago when that hit was made, it was the players fault. Whatever happened to players having to be responsible for keeping their heads up?

Nucks are playing very solid on both ends of the ice. I can't stand Patrick Kane either so i'm happy to see him and Toews getting theirs. I didn't feel that hit was bad either and i'm sick of Bettman ruining the game. The whole instigator penalty needs to go away also, let the players police the game not A WAR ROOM in Toronto.

I love Toews. But Im with you on the rest. And I just saw today as well that there will be no further disciplinary action on the hit. So there we go, they've done something right. That said, his hit on Eberle that he got suspended 4 games for...was even less dirty than the one on Seabrook, thats the biggest problem with the league right now, Inconsistancy.

Looks like the Cup will finally be coming back to Canada,

I predict a Canuck - Habs final. :yeah:

What an exciting night last night. That Chi town stomp on Van was a breath of fresh air and it was nice seeing the game get a little heated, then after, SJ comeback on LA was pretty wild too!

Chicago vs. Vancouver was a good game, however I stopped watching after Van was up 3-1. So I wasn't watching it for very long.

Side note: I'm not cheering for any particular team here. My mom is a die-hard Habs fan so we've been watching all those games. But I'm trying to follow the rest of the playoffs as well.

You mean Chicago went up 3-1. The only good thing to come from that game as a nucklehead was to see Stalberg get his ass handed to him by Bieksa, good and bloodied up. It seems a lot of guys get tough when theyre up 5 goals or whatever in a game thats getting scrappy. But theres a price you gotta pay to be able to run around hackin and facewashing players...you're gonna have to fight if it comes...and he certainly wasnt ready for that beating haha. Now we just get to win the series on home ice. And that San Jose comeback was so unlike San Jose for how they notoriously play in the post season, it was nice to see.

Pretty bad thumping for Vancouver last night. Sure its just a parting gift for the paid attendance. That series is over next home game. The thing about San Jose is they can play horribly for half a game and then just bust out with 5 goals and steal one. That was an epic collapse of playoff hockey. See what happens tomorrow, Go Ducks.

Haha! My bad, I was also doing something else while the game was on. Plus I was up all night because of the rain. Lack of sleep = poor brain function.

I think this is Vancouvers year. I think it's going to be a Vancouver VS Pittsburgh cup with Vancouver winning in 6 games.
