Another overtime game, this time with the Wild coming out on top. I'm feeling a lot better right now.

After the first half of the game, I thought the Senators get blown out again. Good to see that they have some fight in them, even though I'm cheering against them.

Ovechkin makes his presence felt in his first playoff game, scores the winning goal. I love this guy.

Looks like NYR is going to beat NJ in 4 or 5 games........Lundvquist is playing fantastic.

And the Minni/Colorado series is going to be a tougher fought series than I thought, with the 2 straight OT games. I thought Gaborik was going to make Theodore look like a sieve.....maybe his career's been resurrected.

Theodore has looked VERY good so far.

Hell yeah Pens. Didn't even know the playoffs started until I was in the beer store buying beer. They had the Pens vs. Ottawa game on and I walked in right as it ended. I was surprised and happy, and now I'm drunk. It was a good day.

Would you say he's been equal to Backstrom or outplaying him, so far?

montreal pretty much guaranteed win

Saw the Montreal/Boston and Dallas/Anaheim games today.

I didn't see game 1 of this series, but I'm assuming Boston played much better today (need your confirmation aj), as it was a close and hard fought game, right to the end.

Dallas/Anaheim was close........till the 3rd period, when Dallas broke out. Anaheim came out strong, hitting everything in sight, but stupid penalties led to their downfall. Them being eliminated, which looks like it's going to happen, will really screw up my facebook pool, lol.

 Both have been making incredible saves and both have let just a few goals slide in that you never would have expected to be goals. I'd say they've been pretty equal.

Throws my whole prediction off then. I thought Backstrom would be better by a fair bit. I'm thinking this'll be much close than I originally thought.

What a choke job by SJ.......up 3-0, Kipper pulled and 2 old men (CUJO/Nolan) lead the Flames back to win 4-3. I'm just speechless.

And Boston squeaks out a victory. I was surprised at how many Habs fans were there. Glad to see former Giant Lucic playing so well (I hope he comes back home after his contract is up).
