I can just hear him with that Swingers Sega Hockey trash talk.

Are you sure that's not just a Blackhawk goalie with a very detailed Vince Vaughn paint design on his mask? The size and shape of his head make me wonder.
This may be the year I will disappear.

We all get older, Khan.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

Alot of talk about Stamkos and St. Louis but Lecalvier looks like the player he USED to be. Nice to see him using his body again.

That pass he made to St. Louis for their first goal last night was so great. They're not ready but at the same time I don't really have any faith in Pittsburgh against a team with an actual back end. I just hope they don't play Montreal again. (Zzzzzzz)

Preds/Ducks is awesome.
Gaborik sucks but get off his back, dumb Ranger's fans. Bad bounce on a back check (probably not used to it lol.) Maybe don't blow a three goal lead.
I'd sell my soul for a Capitals or Vancouver collapse.

Big night t'night! In other news, I guess Bryzgalov said if Phoenix moved to Winnipeg, he wouldn't be tagging along. Can't blame the fella

I am rooting for my hometown Predators.

I always imagine that to people in "classic" hockey cities, it has to be a great affront that there is NHL hockey in Nashville.

Time for a story.

I was in SF 6 years ago for my sister-in-law's wedding, and I tagged along for the groom's bachelor party. One of the guests from Toronto was drunk & über-obnoxious, and after awhile started needling yours truly about the town I call home. "Seriously, what's in Raleigh? Why would I ever move there? Why would anyone ever move there?"

Do you know how good it felt just a few short months later to send him a picture of Hurricanes captain Rod Brind'Amour holding the Stanley Cup?

I've watched the Canucks blow their spots for my entire life. The idea that they might be able to actually close the deal this year is jarring to my psyche.

The Nashville win was very exciting. They must've been celebrating in Nunavit last night!

Flyers! They really had control of that game. Buffalo looked like they didn't belong on the ice.

Short handed game tying goal with under 5 minutes in a game seven! WHAT?!

What a shot by Burrows!

Both of these goalies were incredible. One of the best series I have seen in a while.
