Ok, my team is out. Many other fans teams are out. We have two 3-1 series where it's the Rangers & Kings in top spots. Elimination time and get out the golf clubs, or move on.

I hope the Black Hawks pick up a pace or 10 and push it to 7, but not so sure that is happening. Don't rule them out though.

Rangers are loaded, big, and really good. Plus one the the best goalies this year, so a kumbyaya to them. Poor Montreal (is that an oxymoron?) got whacked when Price took a skate to the knee. Sucks to be him.

Not sure about the Hawks though. The other bestest goalie is donning the crown over in earthquake land.

I'm seeing Rangers v Kings. Go Rangers (I didn't really say that so smack me now before I delete this...lol)

Let me get this straight...

You're pretty sure your Canadians will beat their Canadians? 😉

(go ahead and call me whatever...I just had to...)

I wouldnt rule the habs out yet (they were my second pick). Give me the Kings over the hawks. Habs in 6 over the Kings.

Yea Mr Cash, I wish for Lord Stanley to go back to Canookdia where it started. I'm an "original six" fan. Wings, Hawks, Rangers, Toronto, Montreal, Boston. That was it. Born & bred Motown and went to lots of games.

It morphed into a monster and went from just Canada & US guys to totally international. Not sure if it's good or bad, but I'm still old school. I like all the euro influence though, lots of skill and good quality games with super skilled players.

I do hope the Rangers take it all. Better yet, Chicago picks up a puck or 10 and takes it to LA to face them. Original Six!!!

Otherwise, Rangers in 5. But the Black Hawks can beat the Rangers if they can pick up the pace vs LA. Kings are toast vs Rangers.

Not trying to jinx it, but I would love to see a Habs-Kings rematch (remember 1993?). Habs took the series in 5 in 1993 and would love to see the Kings take one from them.

They need to get there first though. I would love to see the Kings dispatch the Blackhawks tomorrow.

boy, the Kings look REALLY good this year. I swear last night they had two extra guys on the ice the whole night!! 😉

BUT,,,, my Blackhawks love to be the underdog, so don't count them out just yet.

I don't think Montreal or the Rangers can beat the Kings or Hawks, though. So this is probably the best series of the Cup!

Let's read a book

I grew up with hockey.
It's about as pointless as football or NASCAR.
Or basketball.
That's also really a major waste of time.

I prefer to waste my time with other meaningless diversions.
Like baseball.
Or the things that Fleming makes you Google to figure out what the heck he's talking about.

After that Game 1 win, I can't help but worry the Hawks will come back strong tonight. I also agree the team from the west will win the cup.

I hope that you're right.

Anyone but Montreal or the Rangers.

Don't count Montreal out just yet. The team plays surprisingly well when up in shot creek.

However, the Kings or Hawks should take the cup. The West have bigger and stronger teams.
