6-2.

Meh...I was typing 6-1 and just about to hit the 1...

And that's a wrap!

Who's next, Boston, Carolina? Back to back division titles would be a nice feather in the cap. Especially considering how the Pens turned it around this year.

I think the Pens match up well against both teams. Boston has a deep, dynamic forward core and the superior defense, but even though he's had a great season I'm not 100% sold on Thomas in goal. The only advantage I'd give Carolina is in net, but I think the Pens can perforate Ward. If I'm you, I'm cheering for the 'Canes.

Boston is my 2nd favorite team, so I'm hoping they can win the cup now that the Canucks are dead.

That was one of the MOST edge of your seat game I've seen in while.

Shit! we almost pulled it off.

The Ducks were good but the injuries def. played a toll and we were physically done.

I dont' usually follow hockey but one of my buddies is a big Pens fan so he had me watching the Capitals vs Pens series. I was pretty impressed. Looks like the Pens will play the Canes now.

The Pens are going to roll the Canes. At least half of my SCF prediction will come to pass, though it's small consolation.

Go Wings eh?

Well we pushed a game 7.

I'm happy but wow! does the "d" suck.
We almost blew it there at the end.

Some brilliant saves which had me jumping everytime.

Was getting pissed because the Ducks totally were defending the 2-0 lead in the 3rd and I can somewhat understand but I hate when teams do that in sports.

Really good game, I just hope the Ducks can somehow regroup and play a good game.

Sorry to hear about your Ducks Mick. They fought the good fight tho, and almost pulled it off.

Well, the semis are all set. The Pens and Carolina series is going to be a good one for our house. I go for the Pens, becuz they aren't Toronto and are my team. Crosby is clearly awesome and showing his mettal as a true superstar by elevating his game post season. If Malkin decides to come to work, it could be interesting. The goaltending has been solid also.

My dad is going for Carolina becuz Paul Maurice and Ron Francis are locals and are friends of his and says I should too. Wut? As if..

Red Wings and Hawks. I'd just like to see the Wings lose. They never seem to do enough of that. I don't hate them or anything, but just gettin tired of seeing them win all the damn time. Plus the finals would be an easier place for my Pens without the Red Wings, should they make it.

So in short, Go Pens! Fuck all the rest.

That's it. Game on.

Canucks and Bruins are done. Go Wings. I guess.
