Cheers,

Hawks move on. I was very impressed with the Wild in the postseason. They have some exiting young players that have blossomed. If they can get a solid everyday goalie we will be seeing a lot more of them. And hopefully not in those nauseating red jerseys. They should stick with the green and cream.
Pens lost I’m so bummed.
Tonight I will cheer on Montreal but I would favor Boston to win if I were a betting man.
Montreal's Dale Weise draws first blood in Period 1 of Game Seven at Boston with a tip-in past Bruins' G Tuukka Rask
to give the Canadiens a 1-0 lead at the first Intermission. The winner hosts the N.Y. Rangers in the East Conference finals.
Looking good for the Habs. 3-1. 2:22 left in the 3rd.
Montreal up by two, Go Habs!
"Hey Boston....U Mad, Bro!"
You know there were lot of Habs fans who wanted Therrien fired when he benched Subban earlier in the season. Subban responded the right way. Therrien knows what he’s doing.
Now with all my teams out, I’m rootin’ for the Blackhawks.
Looks like a lot of the favorites are going to be watching.
Price looks solid. And so does Lundqvist.
Should be an interesting series.
All the top seeds are dropping like flies… You've got #4 vs. #5 in the East, and if L.A. turns the trick it would be #5 vs. #6 in the West.
