could only watch that chopfest for five minutes. I know a bunch of people think its the peak of exciting. to me, it's not.

To be perfectly honest with you, I predicted that the Penguins would win, but out of modesty I refrained from thus posting.

I now prognosticate that the Penguins will win this series. Sheer determination, and pissed offness.

But with all the hurt players, I  forecast that the Penguins will not beat the winner of the ducks or the predators.

:lol:

Nashville knocks our Anaheim without their top 2 centres... Pitt on their way there with an AHL defense*.... people will talk about needing depth and coaching etc to win... to me, it says the NHL season is way too damn long... imagine the Stanley Cup finals in April when most teams are relatively healthy...

 

*I may be exaggerating this one a bit...

Its always nice to have fully healthy teams in the Cup but how often does that happen?  But this shows depth, good coaching, an ability by certain players to rise above adversity.  Oh and goaltending.  Great great goaltending.

That is exactly the point I was making... I guess, I just stop caring about hockey by time June rolls around... would be nice if the playoffs were earlier in the year...

Yeah cut season by 12.

For that matter the CFL needs to start earlier too. June 1st, come on already.

Keep 82 games  but start two weeks earlier.

Yes.  It's not perfect, but a major improvement.

In my opinion the biggest problem is the Cup finals are about to start and most Canadian hockey fans are done.  Myself included.

It's finally warm out.  Most people are ready to start doing things outside over finishing up month 8 of the NHL season..
