And here are the upcoming schedules for the quarter finals!
SHARKS!!
I wish someone could explain how it is that more teams make the NHL playoffs than are in the NHL.
I’m for the Sabres kickin Philly’s butt.
I’ve got a bad feeling the Flyers will lose to Buffalo. Miller might have an outstanding run in the post seson and if the Flyers cant get Pronger back they might be in trouble with a rookie goaltender. Otherwise I’d love to see Vancouver do well.
Rooting for a Wings-Habs Final.
Coutuuuuuure! Let’s Go Sharks!

Hockey News Ping!
According to an unconfirmed and to this point unsubstantiated report in the Globe and Mail, an agreement to sell the National Hockey League’s Atlanta Thrashers to a Winnipeg group which plans to relocate the franchise to the Manitoba capital is done.
Sources told the Globe and Mail Thursday night that preparations are being made for an announcement Tuesday of the sale and transfer of the Thrashers to True North Sports and Entertainment, which owns and operates the Manitoba Moose of the American Hockey League and the MTS Centre arena, which would become the NHL teams new home.
