i have the bruins hoisting the cup.  i just don't see montreal getting past them, as much as i would want them to.
I had an extended drinking session with the other two Wings fans in my neighborhood last night and we all agreed quickly we thought the Wings would fare better against the Bruins than the Habs. That's a frustrating team to play against.

I'm just ready for the games to start and take my mind off every Michigan bball player electing to leave early. :(

so smackie, in his wisdom, isn't going to share his predictions.  that way he can later claim that he knew whatever happened was going to happen.  some day i'll learn...

Actually, I'm still thinking long and hard about them.  Other than a Blackhawks/Pens outdoor games, I've seen a ridiculous amount of Pacific Division games.

A month and a half ago I was all about the Ducks.  Then it was a month of "here come the Kings on the back of Quick again."  But I really think winning the division was huge - I think LA/SJ goes 7 games and is brutal.  I don't care if LA wins (I'd like to see the rivalry) or San Jose wins (I'd like to attend the games), but the winner of the next Pac Div series faces off against Boston in the final. 

I'm digging deep to see if I'm being fan biased or if Anaheim can actually win this.  I'll let you know when I decide.

These Ovechkin/Fear Of Missing Out on Hockey commercials are awkward already. Sorry Caps fans.

I'm telling you, the Pac Division has had some amazing hockey this year.  No lead is safe.

I realized it had went in a solid three seconds before anyone else at the view party I was at and leapt out of my seat screaming, "Goal! Pashaaaaaaa!" and everyone looked at me like a nut until they realized.

I am also two weeks outta back surgery and regretting my first sudden movement since. But sooooo worth it.
