in the first round we seen all top 4 seeds in the west lose. now here in the 2nd round, we see 3 teams already up 3-0 in these series with the sharks/oilers game still pending tonight. if the sharks happen to win tonight that makes 4 series that will be 4-0

i'm i the only one that is suprised over this strangness this year?

I cant believe how bad the Senators are playing in this series. Dont look like the same team from the regular season. I guess they were playing at Playoff pace in the regular season and the other teams just turned it up and play at the same level now.

The same goes with the Red Wings.

Its the playoffs, and some rise to them better then others.

[Illusion]

Really, the Senators haven't played well for about two months. They lost a bunch of guys to injuries and never recovered.

I have made a killing fading this team down the stretch.

[Razz]

Personally, I think the playoffs have been amazing.

Since it is no longer on ESPN or a network, I have not heard one word about the NHL playoffs on any local radio or print living in the midwest. I heard that KC might want to bring in a hockey team to the new Sprint arena, but not a word about the playoffs.

[bigboydan]

the penguins might be moving to KC i hear lakerfan.

I will say this much though. that was one hell of a triple O.T. last night in that edmonton/San Jose game. Roloson made some great saves.

anaheim and san jose are no surprise. two good young teams that came together late in the season. they've been playing the best hockey of any west team down the stretch. better than dallas. better than detroit.

new jersey is the shocker turned shocker. win 15 straight then drop 3?

i think the playoffs have been great.
