I am getting some brooms ready for tonight. Bruins are going to sweep away the Flyers and then on to the Eastern Conference Finals. Go Black and Gold!

Hopefully they can get the next win as well. I read that after this postseason that their lease expires with Joe Louis Arena. Might they make the move to the Palace of Auburn Hills? Only time will tell.

I would love if they moved to the Palace, as I live about 15 minutes away from there.

Huge win for the Wings and the Canadiens! Wings need to keep that momentum going............

Ok, I am no longer going to make any predictions involving the Habs....they just keep suprising! The Pens really need Staal back.
Kudos to the 'Wings, they played a hell of a game to stay alive. If anyone can come back from down 3-0, it's the 'Wings.
Simon Gagner may mack his return tonight, that could help light a fire under the Flyer's ass.....too little too late though.

Agreed on habs comment. Also Staal is a real contributer to the team so agreed on that as well.

Talking about predictions, I'll add my name to the list of those who can't even come close to picking the winners.

I'll just throw a few thoughts out:

The Canadiens have surprised me. On paper they should have been swept by now, but they have been showing alot of heart. For those hockey fans who love to root for the underdogs, this team is the one to root for this postseason. They still can't set up plays to save their lives, but their defense and their goalie have been good at frustrating the Pens' shooters. No small feat as it's obvious that Pittsburgh has more talent with the puck.

Detroit and Vancouver had big, dominating wins over opponents. Detroit over Phoenix in game 6 and Vancouver over Chicago in game 1. Following those games they were unable to win the next two or three. It will be interesting to see whether Detroit or Vancouver can return to their winning ways. I honestly thought that these two had very good odds of playing in the Conference finals. I believe the one big factor in all of this is defense.

Boston is taking care of business. They seem well-balanced and players have stepped up when they needed to. I've never been a fan of the Bruins, but if they make it to the Conference finals I'll be rooting for them against whichever team they face.

Yeah out of all the teams in the playoffs, the Bruins have been, by far, the most consistent.

Say good bye to the Wings............ This blows. Let's go Canadiens!!!

[pantomime horse]

My Wings are out. I'll be supporting the Sharks now. I'll also continue to watch the other games in the playoffs. They're quite entertaining thus far.

[kickass32]

Bye bye 'Wings, but you'll have some more company tonight...Habs and Flyers to join you.....not that I am making a prediction, because I said I wouldn't make anymore predictions involving the Habs, 'cause they are so fricken unpredictable.

Again, not making any predictions here, but this could be the year San Jose finally gets over the hump. The way both Chicago and Vancouver are playing, I think the Sharks can take either team over a 7 game series.

Habs have to win - they're the only team I have left......
