Although my team is not in it, there is going to be some great matchups this year.
The greatest post-season in all the world...nothing else remotely comes close. 
Kerad said:Yes they do!
Of course I'm all geeked up about the Mighty Mighty Pittsburgh Penguins back in the playoffs for the first time since 2001. It's going to be a tough series against the Chokey Chokey Ottawa Senators...but this is all bonus for us Penguins fans this year.
I understand there are some other teams playing as well.

Yet expected. The Pens have that shell-shocked crap out of the way. Game 2 will be different. 
Kerad said:Well..yes, they DO need to tighten up. But it's the first game of a best of seven. Pens will be happy with a split in Ottawa, and the split is better if you get game 2.
Penguins will win both at home, so, we're looking at 3-1 Penguins when they hit game 5.
Though this game isn't over yet. (3-1 Chokers inbetween 2nd and 3rd)
Those first 8 minutes were brutal.

Kerad said:Yep. It's good as gold!
That Crosby goal wave-off was pure ####.
aww just pushing and shoving
Kerad said:If I'm Therrien...I would have let Laraque loose with 10 to go.
LordStanley said:hes only there to protect Crosby. all the other players can take care of themselves
Kerad said:Well...no. Once the game got to where it was...it's message sending time. Tell ya..it's "amazing" how Crosby hasn't been cheap-shotted since the Pens got Larague. Magical.
The Pens have been spanked in game one...and I fully expect them to bring it in game 2...which we have to wait until Saturday for.
Pens in 6. (My original pick, and I'm sticking to it.)
Oh they should. Unless of course they fall apart. But they seem to have their stuff together, and seem to really work as a team this year. I am suprised to see the Red Wings make it this far, I would like to see them go all the way too.Kerad said:
