The Canucks are way too much overrated. They have mediochre goal-tending at best, and past Bertuzzi and Naslund, not much depth. I don't get where all these grand predictions of Cup Finals and Conference Finals are coming from???

Oilers win 2-1 (almost 3-1, if not for the questionable-but-probably-correct high-sticking call). Take the lead in the series. Oh, yes...

But I hope they don't get too cocky. Pride could be their downfall.

Never the less, I am very pleased.

(Especially to see Hatcher get the misconduct; he, Odelein, Lemieux, and Morrow, were just nasty tonight; I'm glad the Oil kept their head in the game and didn't retaliate. Beautiful.)

My revolutionary idea: Rename the Oilers. The name's all right, I guess, but I have trouble getting too excited and/or proud about petroleum. I propose they change the team name to...

(Drumroll, please...)

The Edmonton Protocol.

According to the Globe:

"A deft move by Flyers officials defused the national anthem issue that has dogged some sports events since the start of the war in Iraq.

As the public-address announcer asked the crowd to respect the singing of the national anthems, there were some boos at the mention of Canada. However, the announcer then introduced a United States Air Force colour guard along with anthem singer Lauren Hart. The colour guard stepped on the ice behind Hart and there were no boos for O Canada, even a few cheers at the end. No one, not even the Philadelphia fans, who have a reputation for booing Santa Claus, wanted to be seen booing the Air Force."


Finally, the US air force helps out Canada.

As for Ottawa, so much pressure on the next game for them to win.

Snow couldn't even stay with the Canucks and he earns a shutout?

How bout them Canucks. 6-0. I was about to gloat but it's bad luck, I guess I just did (knocks on wood). I can't think of a single thing Vancouver can take away from that game. Cloutier is going to have a hard time recovering, sorry.

Go Blues.

And mad props to Gigi. I use to hate you (made the Blues look like punks) but now that you beat the Wings, I love ya. (albeit it's one game)

7 out of 8 of the first games taken by the lower seed, this is going to be awesome post season.

	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

It's only the first games. It'll be interesting to see if the Canucks have what it takes to come back. With Crawford managing them, I doubt it, but who knows.

Detroit should have enough experience to know this is just one game, but experience also tells them what a super hot goalie can do for a team.

From what I have read, the Sens tried to play a hard-hitting game against the Isles and it back-fired. They'll probably go back to their old style and get their act together.

Philly is in trouble. Chechmanek must be having a massive confidence crisis after letting in four goals on 14 shots. Ten bucks says he'll throw another hissy fit before the series is over. Meanwhile the Leafs know they were sh!t lucky and will come out even stronger in the next game.

I took a walk for a few hours after the game, it was the best thing I did today.

Not their worst playoff game ever, but close.
Should have gone out with my friends instead of watching that game, but then again, what if they won, eh?

It's a seven game series, which is why the Stanley Cup is the best trophy. One win won't trash a team or clinch a cup, unlike the Super Bowl.

But if they lose again..

And Detroit will win the series - this is becoming an annual thing now
