Not optimistic about this. Given the last game between these two and the riot that occurred at the end. This is the one team I didnt want the sharks to see in the first round. Pronger is going to go Pronger on someone and Perry well he took lessons from Pronger apparently. I am really hoping the refs dont put the whistles in their pockets. I am thinking the league will be on top of them. The refs who did their last regular season game let that get away from them in a hurry.

One things for sure I doubt who ever wins will go much further as this one will be a violent series. Hell even the guys on the nhl channel on XM radio were saying this was going to be an ugly series.

Oh, I completely agree with Pronger/Perry. It appears he found his protege... I hate Pronger, likes to start stuff, but NEVER finishes what he starts. Refs always tend to loose the whistle at the end of the season, and then it never makes it to the rink for playoffs.

Sharks seem to always get a really physical team the first round, and then get banged up, definitely not what they needed with all the injuries they had late. We will see if this is the year they respond correctly to the physicality, and the much closer checked games. Thornton is going to have to learn to deal with it, and to shoot the damn puck. Guy has an amazing shot, and you wouldn't even know it. Would also be nice if Cheecho could do something productive.

Thanks James....you know I am rooting for the Wings with the same disclaimer. I don't think the Jackets have the firepower, I would say the best chance among the 8 series for a sweep.

Just want to wish everyone who has a dog in the fight the best of luck. And those that don't, I hope you get great tee times.

With Avery, I'm not surprised. A little penecillin should take care of that clap problem.

Looks like in the west I'm going to have to cheer for the sharks because they are my playoff pool team.

I am actually cheering for the Rangers, I want Avery to get what he deserves and the Bruins are the best bet to give him that. Hope that he lives through it but I really don't care.

icehog3 · 04-15-2009, 05:10 PM

Looks like I am rooting for the Caps to come out of the East, Matt...my pool team.

Shaerza · 04-15-2009, 05:28 PM

Go Wings! I hope they prove my worries wrong!

04-15-2009, 05:32 PM

Go flyers... Been too long!

I'm a closet habs fan as well. Kinda funny I know.

And the playoffs are underway!

bugmenot · 04-15-2009, 06:47 PM

Flyers have seem kind of flat so far. Hopefully they can get it together in the second period.

04-15-2009, 06:55 PM

The game has been very hard hitting ... As is expected.

They seemed more awake in the second half of the period.

Go flyers!

SmokeyJoe · 04-15-2009, 08:04 PM

Guess I need to give the Devils their due... so far (after 2 Periods) they are handling my 'Canes pretty easily.

We will open the third on a power play. Gotta score!

SmokeyJoe · 04-15-2009, 08:26 PM

Hurricanes could not get a shot off on their power play...

Guess I will start collecting my 5 cigars.

Not giving up - just being prepared!

I wasnt able to see much of the game. I got from where Carolina scored on. I'll have to watch the highlights

Trust me... 95% of the highlights belong to the Devils.
