Rational thought comes tomorrow, but for tonight, a hearty f*** you to Chris Campoli.

Canucks were terrific all game, and I hope the Predators crush the life out of them.

I'm pissed. Goodnight.

That Hawks Canucks game was flat out amazing. And i'm happy to see the Canucks moving on.

Being in Vancouver these days, I was downtown watching the Habs game and then stuck around to watch the 'Nucks game as well. Streets were loud and proud after the win, it was good to see. Not up to Montreal caliber, but I've been spoiled in that regard as a Habs fan.

Here's hoping the streets of Montreal will be rocking and not rioting tonight! Go Habs Go!

There's a difference?

Lets hope we can beat the Sharks so sick of playing them though. Wish we would have got the Preds instead.

The Canucks looked bad yesterday, the only thing they really did well was play a physical style of game I think that's what did it for them. Burrows was a beast yesterday the rest of them sucked. Hope the Habs win again and send the Bruins back to Boston!

The fans celebrate, and the criminals riot/smash/grab etc... Mtl has a bad rep when it comes to being terrible, but the ones doing all the damage aren't even Habs fans, they just take advantage of the situation.

Anyways, headed downtown Van City to "The Forum" (fitting, eh?) to watch the game! Go Habs Go!!!

Bruins Habs going to overtime. Lets go Bruins!

Game 7 OT is so much more enjoyable when you're team isn't involved.

For how good this first round has been, it's pretty shocking that the lowest seed advancing is a 5.

Tampa Bay holds on and a road team finally wins a Game 7 in this round.

New first post coming up soon.

Bruins 3rd goal a result of no call on a headshot by Ference, and a missed high stick by the linesmen. Awesome.

Stay classy Boston. The Flyers aren't classy, so they'll stoop to your levels next round... better be ready.

I'm very happy that TB won and am pleased with Boston winning. Good stuff all around

Round 2 lets do this!

Couple great games tonight. Sad to see the Canadiens lose though.

Can't wait for that Bruins Flyers series its going to be great.

That 3rd goal was a result of Roman Hamrlik putting more effort into diving and complaining than playing the game. I like to think karma played an integral part in it as well.

Right, because Montreal is all about the class.

I must say that Boston and Montreal series was great as a outside fan I couldn't stop watching them go at it. It had everything in it and more, sad to see the Habs send home (would have liked to see them win a cup if Detroit didn't).

Glad to also see Stevie Y get his first series win as a GM. Dwayne Roloson was a beast the guy is machine in game 7's I think his GAA is now under 1.50 in game 7's which is insane. Anybody else hate the Rogers Sportsnet personality's? The are idiots calling a GAA stat a ERA one. Botching players names and so on and so forth. Man it's painfull to watch sometimes.

Bring on the Sharks and lets get round 2 started!

Take off your rose coloured glasses 15th, and watch that play with Hammer and Kelly again... Kellys stick goes up and spears Hammer in the throat. I don't know if you've ever been nailed in the throat before, but that doesn't feel very good, and makes for a hard time breathing.

The fact of the matter is that it should never have gotten to the point where that play happened. Why? Ference's cheapshot on Halpern should have been a 2 min interference penalty at the very least, AND the puck was touched with a high stick by the Bruins player, and it wasn't whistled down.

Since you're so video happy, here's one for you:

The worst part is Ference criticized teammate Paille for a hit to the head earlier this season.

As for diving, I'll agree with you that PK doesn't need to embellish, and I don't like it. He's an extremely skilled player, and doesn't need that to be a part of his game. However, same goes for Chara. Chara went down conveniently easy last night to draw a penalty.

This is the first, and probably the last time I'll ever say this, but... Go Flyers Go.

P.S. - Montreal IS all about class. If you were a hockey fan, and didn't cling to every word that idiot Jack Edwards spews... maybe you'd realize this. If you want to learn about class, watch this video, and then the next 7 parts to it...
