Both are up 3-1 against probably two of my least favorite teams, so I hope they can pull it off. Also, we have Game 5's in the delightfully crazy Pittsburgh-Columbus and the somewhat invisible (to me, anyway) Minnesota-Colorado series. It's a full day, folks...better run those errands now so you can spend the rest of the day planted in front of the TV. Nashville Predators News Predators see Scott...
Luckily for Kings "fans", the team isn't comprised of all Southern Californians. Otherwise, they would've found a way to lose the series in 3 games and just go surfing instead. Nobody can get eliminated tonight, but the Blues and Blackhawks continue to beat each other senseless in Game 5, followed by Game 5 for Dallas-Anaheim. Should be fun...

What's the Canadian word for "broom"? Whatever, it doesn't really matter. I was kind of rooting for Tampa here, but it will be Canada Man who advances, and Florida Man who goes home. Will the Kings be the next team to leave? They went down 3-0 to the Sharks last night, and that's a sweep that would make me VERY happy.

It's the most exciting way to win, isn't it? And it was the first playoff win in their franchise history, which I guess is pretty cool, too. The Penguins better hope they win Game 3, and in convincing fashion, because Columbus thinks they can win this series. And they might be right.
