Fuck yeah Playoffs start tonight, I don't know about you guys but I'm pumped as a motherfucker

GO SENS GO

[El Kabong]

Montreal up 1 on the Sens
Isles up 1 on the Caps
Flames up 1 on Vancouver

and the best match last night the Blackhawks came back from 3 down to win in double OT to go up 1 on the Preds.

It was a great night of hockey. Sens/Montreal was VERY fast paced, very chippy... it's going to be a very exciting, rough series. PK Subban got thrown out for a slash, a lot of people thought it was a bad call, I thought it was fair, it was a baseball swing that caused an injury so what can you do?

I was switching back and forth between that and the Isles/Caps game... Caps were a little flat but I thought they played ok. Ovechkin played his ass off, 8 shots on net and he was actually back checking and hitting anything that moved. Another good series but I felt the Islanders were a bad match up for them.

Caught Preds/Hawks, great 1st for the Preds and great 2nd for the Hawks... could have went either way. Gonna be a tight series IMO, still taking the Preds.

Missed Canucks/Flames, just caught the HLs.

Habs vs Sens could really get nasty depending on Ottawa's response to how rough Montreal were. I think Subban got a raw deal getting a misconduct for that slash, he should have gotten a penalty no doubt, but it wasn't bad enough to toss him.

Isles vs Caps will be interesting to see if the Caps can get anything to fall for them.

Hawks vs Preds was just goalies falling apart left and right!

Good games last night NYR vs Pens was a good game

Great hockey. Best series so far? Hawks/Preds. Close double overtime game 1, Preds kill them 6-2 game 2, it has the makings of a really wild series.

I'm still in shock that we have 5 teams in round 1. Shame that 4 playoff in the same round. That bugs me as a nationalist and fan. Really like how my home town got off. I dislike the Canucks and Vancouver. Thought the Sens might spoil it for the Habs but so far so good. The Jets are a pleasant surprise. Couldn't happen to a better fanbase.
