Should another good game tonight. Go Canes!

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

Carolina just scored 1-0

Oh this is airborne’s ping list, used with permission. Ping me or mail if you want on or off.

[dfwgator]

Go Habs!

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

So I'm actually a dejected Red Wings fan, and the past several years I've been working on my theory that along with not wanting an American as Wings captain, Steve Yzerman enjoys watching playoff hockey as much as I do. It's just that he sits back rooting for any Canadian team, while I root for all Canadian teams to lose.

Yeah jaded. Go Canes!

[dfwgator]

Montreal ties it at 1-1.

[Jonty30]

Go Canadiens.

Go away.

[dfwgator]

I don’t want a Carolina-Vegas Final.

[crusty old prospector]

Go Stars! Oh, wait…

[dfwgator]

Carolina scores....2-1.

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

I can’t believe Vegas is this close to putting the Avalanche away.

[dfwgator]

Based on what I see so far, I don’t see Montreal winning another game in this series. Carolina is just smothering them.

[UB355]

Notice it’s tied 2-2

[Dr. Sivana]

Big loss for the Hartford Whaler fans of Connecticut. Fewer people, but they actually appreciate hockey.

[dfwgator]

Yep, should be a good 3rd Period.

[dfwgator]

Montreal takes the lead 3-2. But it’s under review.

Oh by the way, The Knicks are about the sweep the Cavs.

[montag813]

Habs take the lead 3-2! Woo-hoo.

[dfwgator]

Not going to stand.

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

Uh oh, 3-2 habs, but looks off sides.

[montag813]

OOPS. No goal.
