    Loved the atmosphere in The Peg! Sentimental favorites for me in the tourney this year since Barb is from there and I have visited many times.

    Leafs tonight!
    This Cindy / Phlyers series could wind up worse than the Isles vs. The Missing Link and his blueshirts in 1994 when Isles were swept and outscored 22-3.

    Only chance for phlyers is to revive the Spirit of '75 and bloody the way forward.

    Hope it works!

    ^ the west as a whole has been great to watch thus far.
    Please don't ask questions, just use google.

    I always seem to enjoy the West playoffs more than the East. The game is so different.

    The final 10 minutes of last night's Shark's-Duck's game was some of the most exciting hockey I've ever seen.

    OT in DC. Must win for the Caps. Especially after blowing two 2 goal leads. Can't go on the road down 2-0. Otherwise, same ole Capitol's.

    Edit - And there ya have it....Same ole playoff Caps.

    That was a great game last night. Leafs need to duplicate that feat tomorrow. I still thought Boston was a lot more dangerous than Toronto was. Shots on goal tell the tale.

    Yeah, Boston was threatening the whole game. The Leafs dug deep though. Hope they do it again.

    Speaking of saves, Hellebuyck made an unreal one in last night's game! Can't find the video unfortunately.... That Jets-Wild series is getting nasty!

    Lots of good hockey! I'm especially enjoying the Caps/Blue Jackets series. No love between these two and lots of OT.

    That was a stunning save, don't think the Bruins played badly at all, they got hurt on the power play goal that should never have been a PP. One of those games where the goalie played great and the breaks went the Leafs way. Good for the series that the Leafs are back in it.

    The CBJ - Caps series is great, tight, nasty, can go either way.

    I don't know how long this run will last, obviously, but the fact that I was so wrong in hockey not working in Las Vegas makes me giddy. Going to some bar or whatever and seeing bunches of people not just rooting for the home team but the fact that it's a hockey team is so very cool and a little bit of vindication for me. So many years I've been telling people how cool hockey is and now that they get to see it, well, I can't tell you how many times I've heard "I was never a hockey fan but now I love it".

    It really has been a surreal ride since the shooting, the very emotional opening game ceremonies and the winning team of castoffs they have put together. For you guys this type of fandom is old hat but here it's all new and been such a joy to watch.

    The scene at T-Mobile is unreal. Outside there are bars, restaurants and shops with picnic benches, a concert stage and a huge monitor on the arena you can watch the game for free. You can even BYOB(it's Vegas, you know) to make it a relatively cheap outing and get to hang with a bunch of locals who are into it.

    I was so damned wrong it's more than funny, it's hilarious but I'll ride this wave as long as this team can keep it up.

    Sounds like a blast! I hope the NFL will have a similar impact as it's my team that is moving there. I have never been to Vegas but was planning on going once the Raiders move, to try and do a hockey/football combo vacation.

    Looking forward to your first trip to Vegas. There's so much good food here whether it's on the Strip or off that you'll love it just for that.

    I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

    I need a new team to root for in these playoffs, as my Flyers aren't worthy. Might go with the Leafs or Blue Jackets.
