no offense to the ranger fans but pitts is too strong
if lundquist gets extremely hot its possible but even then not probable

plus they dont have home ice advantage

i was thinking the sharks and habs have the possibility of a comeback habs more than any of the three teams

I'm thinking iffin the Sharks win tomorrow night...the series is theirs...

But...don't believe them or the Stars can git past Detroit...

I think the Rangers and the Sharks both have a decent shot. The Rangers played the Pens quite well 5 on 5. I think if they can continue to do that they have a really good shot at coming back.

I think the Sharks are starting to believe they belong in the playoffs. Last nights game was pretty crazy. A little bit of luck helped too but still, they have to be feeling pretty good right now.

Haven't been following the Habs so I got nothin to say.

No offense taken but they just gotta take it one game at a time and play smart.

Habs just didn't have the goaltending... The number one scoring team and number one power play unit in the NHL just didn't bring it. And, it seemed like every bounce was going the Flyers way. It was astounding. I have to hand it to the Flyers.

This was brutal series to watch as a Habs fan. The Flyers made the most of their chances.
They believed in themselves.

R.J. Umberger scored 9 goals so far in the playoffs (8 against the Habs -- if you could believe that).
That's 4 less than he had all year.

The Eastern final is going to be epic no matter which team advances.

I'ts a great time to be a hockey fan.

Now we is down to the nut cuttin'...Good luck to whichever team is your preference...Personally...I'm just happy the Stars ain't playing another West Coast team...Mebbe I can watch more games...

The irony is that the Pens all but threw the last game of the year against the Flyers by not suiting players, namely Crosby. The general consensus was that the Flyers were such a cheap shot team, the Pens didn't want to chance injuries. And now, here they are, playing the Flyers.

That, is karma. Given that the Canadiens hit 100 posts and outshot the Flyers by a 2-1 margin, it seemed like the Flyers were destined to meet the Pens. This is going to be one heck of a physical series.

The East should be an amazing series.

Originally I was thinking the Wings could beat the Stars but with Turco playing as good as he is right now I'm not so sure.

Should be some fun stuff to watch.
