Hawks game was a LOT closer than it looked on paper (4-1, but 2 empty net goals).

1st Wild Card team will likely face two out of LA, Anaheim or SJ in the first two rounds, then meet up with the Central winner in the conference finals. Not a very easy task, I suggest the Hawks step it up and stay ahad of Nashville, who are looking real good lately.

At the rate the sharks are playing, I wouldn't bank on them doing much. Put together a good 3rd period against the Stars, but one period does not make a game.

Tom - Scheifele is rocking again tonight. Tune in to the Jets game! He has 2 in already - some serious skill on the first!

Saw 'em both, Neil. Glad to see them on the sheet, and since I was playing against Pavelec (sp?) in fantasy playoffs, wasn't that sad to see them lose.

Tom is your squad coasting right now or is there some actual issues going on? I have a feeling we will see a normal Hawks team tonight. Can't let us get the season sweep.

I seriously can't believe the Wild right now. They look like a completely different team for the last month.

Oh and by the way, Duncan Keith should be suspended through the first playoff series for his stick slash to Coyles face. Maybe even the rest of the season to send a message. Second offense of this nature for Keith. Used to think that guy was a helluva player. Lost all respect for him last night.

I agree. It's actually Keith's third offense, Sedin (elbow), Carter (high stick), and now Coyle, each with intent to injure (IMO). And while his taunting of Backes two years ago was obviously not suspension worth, it was tactless and it really effected my opinion of him.

Maybe it's a learned behavior...



Tom, !

On another note, Wings and Bruins both lose! Good news for the Flyers. Hopefully the Caps have a President's Trophy hangover tonight.

Not that I have any skin in the game, but I just saw an article that said Keith was suspended indefinitely.

WWII veteran Len Kropioski (sp?) - made his return to MTS on Tuesday, after a several weeks away. His face is always on the jumbotron saluting the anthems.

Anyway - not in his usual front row seat, but back nonetheless. Kroppy got quite he ovation!

Thankfully he got some punishment. IMO it should have been for the season.
My first thought when I it saw it was of Maki's shot to Ted Green's head in '69. (Ted did take the first swing, thankfully missing.)
He suffered brain damage. This kind of thing has to stop in the game.

Hawks - Jets - one heck is of a game tonight. Wheeler and Scheifele still piling on the points for Tom.

OT win for Hawks.

You're welcome Tom.

So was he trying to right himself after a fall, or is that an intentional slash at the face? I think it's hard to know, considering the momentum seems to be trying to turn him right side up. If there was truly any intent there (I sure hope there isn't), then honestly, he should never play again.

Just my 2 cents.....
