The Pens certainly have done well thus far with all their injuries and suspensions. Winning their division the way they did was commendable as well. But Tampa has a lot of holes in their team after the second line, so they remind me a bit of Washington. I think even with Crosby this would have gone seven games.
debatable.. anyways i thought it will be 7 games. we gotta rally the troops, we play at home..i expect a win

Game over for the Hawks...Canucks found a way to avoid the embarrassment(or Campoli showed it to them...?).
Ok so it's Canucks-Preds and Sharks-Red Wings now!!!

    Toews is probably my favourite player. That was amazing stuff! AND THE SAVE CRAWFORD MADE ON KESLER...JESUS CHRIST!
    That was really an incredible move by Toews last night. If the Hawks would have ended up winning in OT, as they probably should have, then that Toews goal would have earned legendary status, at least from me. Great comeback from Chicago though. Pathetic stuff from the "best team in the NHL", the Canucks.

    The Pens game starts an hour later at 8pm Eastern.

    Wow,Canucks-Preds starting tommorow...So Nucks got only 1 day off after 7 series games including OT.lol
    That is absolutely fantastic. By the time the Conference finals roll around, they're going to be dead tired. I think Nashville will take them six games as well. The Nucks will probably underestimate them.

    We'll see how we do against the Sharks. I know we'll perform better than last season and I don't think the Sharks are any better than last year, so we shall see. Wouldn't be surprised to see seven games, however, with us prevailing because of the little break we've had.

    Less than an hour until game time, I haven't been able to sit still all day.

    I think we all understand the gravity of this game, and the toll that a classic series like this can take on its fans - when you lose one of these, it hurts all summer... at the very least.

    Anyway, Sergio, Mark, you guys are top notch fans, and you support a quality organization. Let's hope that tonight is hard fought, clean, and another great advertisement for playoff hockey. Win or lose, no hard feelings lads - this series has been everything a matchup between these two teams should be. Gotta love the classics.

    Time to crack the tequila! Enjoy the games tonight, guys!

    i see it like 30% disadvantage...

    If I had to place bets, I'd bet on the Habs.
    both home teams to win

    Yeah it's great,and I also think they'll take the Preds lightly.,..

    Last year it was a huge disadvantage to us, going seven games against the Yotes. I'd much rather have a week off and struggle in game one than be in the Nucks' situation.
