My Flames squeaked into the playoffs, whewwww They had me worried for a bit!! Unfortunately they face the red hot San Jose Sharks!! Hopefully Kipper gets and stays hot!!

The team that i'm really excited to watch is the Capitals!! They are a fun team to watch! As much as I love Crosby, I think I would pick Ovechkin!! Solid 2 way player, and man does he ever get excited when they score!!

Caps start off against philly, i believe they tied the season series 2-2, but one of the Caps wins was in a shoot out. probably not going to any of the games!1 rather stay in the comforts of my house and drink cheap beer, vice $7 for 1 at the game,lol

To good hockey!!!

D and I will be there Friday night - woot! Not planning on drinking any beer at the Verizon Center though, lol. I may have to eat my words that Washington is not a hockey town. The last few games that we have been at, the place has been rocking!

If my Isles can't be in it, Go Caps!

I think DC just likes to support a winner!! My wife is out of town for the weekend, so I was thinking of going to the game if I could get tickets, but I rather watch on TV,lol and I have a big exam on Monday, fun fun!

Yeah, there def seems to be more than a few fair weather fans here, that's for sure. Try being an Islander fan since the late 80's! jest.gif

The NHL is still around?

Appears Versus is showing 2 games a night!! Sweet!

Of course the Capitals are the only team I can watch on television, so hoping they do go far. Going to be too busy for a couple of weeks to be able to watch any of the games I am thinking (Go Caps Go). I would love to go to a game, another reason I want them to stay in longer cause I can't go right now, LOL.

It's baseball season.
Leafgal
I believe if it all goes as long as planned it would be I think the first week of June before it is all over.
flames9
I love playing baseball, about the same as hockey!! But I just can't watch ball, its soooooooooooo slow!!

My Rangers will have to put up or shut up. I think they can go far though. If they don't then I don't care as long as it's not Montreal.

I'll be at the Caps Game Friday night as well!

Hubby and I are in Section 113 Row E

Couldn't even THINK of getting tickets like that in Toronto...Of course, I can't remember the last time they were in the playoffs tongue.gif

Both games are sold out, unless you want to shave your head into a mohawk for Elliot in the Morning...he'll give you a ticket if you do! laughing.gif

C-A-P-S Caps! Caps! Caps!

Well maybe if the Leafs were playing wacko.gif

Les Glorieux contre Les Bruins. Montreal-Boston series are always wild, just don't expect to see Cheevers, Dryden, Lafleur, Ratelle, O'Reilly and the rest of the boys. The head coaches are Claude Julien (ex-Habs coach) for Boston and Guy Charbonneau for Montreal. It's going to be very interesting to see who wins this one.
Leafgal
WHOO HOO FLAMES !!!! I only was able to see the first period but that was pretty good. kicking.gif
TracyTN
YEAH - go Flames!!! Knock those girly men from San Jose out of the playoffs!!! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Yes that is the problem with 2 teams that are west coast, I can't stay awake for them to finish for sure. I will have to call my son during the next game, he lives in Calgary and a huge fan so he must be pretty happy since it was touch and go to the end if they would make it.

Go Penguins GO !!!! How sweet would that be to see " Sid the Kid " holding the cup !!!

Pittsburg is an exciting team. not sure trading for Hossa made them a better team though!!

Hossa is an all-star who had 29 goals this year...I'd take him!

Next Flames game isn't until Sunday night. The Saddledome is gonna be insane...I wish I could be there!!!
flames9
But Pits gave up some good players for a rental, and one that has a history of not showing up in the playoffs! Time wil tell!! I think one of the key players for Pitts is Roberts!! Always liked him.
stillCanadian
Pittsburgh did give up some for Hossa , but man can he play ! And Roberts is a workhorse .... out for so long with a broken leg , and to come back and play like he is.
I think the Pens are like the oilers of old. Young guns , that can skate like the wind , and have no fear.....
Mario must be beaming !!!
Udella&Wiz
GO CAPS GO ... C ... A ... P ... S CAPS CAPS CAPS.

Can't wait for the caps game tonight!! I am almost tempted to buy a ticket off of craigslist, but then I see my cold beer in the fridge,lol
