Sweep!

Bruins swept the Canadiens in the NHL playoffs! Next!

I know, but it was predictable. The bruins areTHE team this year and the montreal Canadians have the less percentage of Quebecer this year in the team. I hate to say but we must stop the invasion of other languages.

Did you know that we had a privilege too chose Ffrench Canadian before all the other teams! (IIRC) And in that times we were in the best team of America.

Dang, i want the Nordique back.

I just hope that in the future our national anthem can be respected. The Nordiques were good, they won the Cup 1 or 2 seasons after becoming the Avalanche. That had to hurt!

All of that went right over my head

I like hockey, but I could never make head or tail of it...

I have to admit that the Bruins are the team to beat, but I am still hopeful that the Sharks will get back on track somehow. Losing the first two games to the Ducks hasn't given me a lot of hope, but they did look much better when they won in Game 3. Still, they aren't nearly as healthy as they were during the regular season.

Tonight is the Sharks chance... they lose this one it's going to be pretty difficult to win three straight.

Wow, I'm surprised to see the Sharks gone! The same thing happened to Boston a few years ago when they had the #1 seed. Montreal handed them their a___es in the first round.


Two game 7's in the east tonight then it's on to round 2!

Yeah, I'm not too happy with the outcome, but I'm also not all that surprised. The fact is that the Sharks were healthier during the beginning of the regular season, and they struggled as time went on. Their defense alone was indicative of how things would turn out, as Nabby had to field a lot of shots that should have never made it through to him. So the back of my head, I knew that they probably weren't strong enough to defeat the Ducks. But it was one helluva year! The # 1 record for the season, both in their division and in the entire NHL, as well as the President's Trophy. Ok, so they didn't get to the final victory, but it was still a really great year!

Now...of course...the darker side of me hopes that Detroit knocks out Anaheim!

Well, best of luck to you and your Bruins, Jeff! I think they have an extremely good shot at taking the Stanley Cup this year!

At this point the Sharks probably aren't even thinking about that. Back when the Patriots went undefeated then lost in the Superbowl the team was very sour. The 16-0 regular season meant nothing to them and that's never been done before!

Detroit used to have some killer seasons only to get knocked out in the first round. After a few years of this Scotty Bowman decided to pace his team and only play well enough to make the playoffs. They've won the Cup twice since then.

You're right Jeff. They probably aren't thinking of any of that, but they should still be proud for their efforts.

Awww, Dude!

My condolences. I really thought the Bruins would take the Cup this year.

But I am reconciled in that Anaheim got knocked out! That's what they get for taking out my Sharks!

I thought they would at least make it to the finals, but last night they didn't put in a good 60 minutes. That'll cost a team and it did...


Go Pitt!
