Hawks are taking the West. Only reason they lagged and finished lower was those injuries.

I'd hope so. I'd love a repeat. Going to game 1 of the Stanley Cup last year when they won in triple overtime was one of the best live events I had the pleasure of attending.

Was hoping my neighbor had an extra ticket for tonight, but no dice.

Go KINGS!

The perfect evening:
-Duchene starts and scores a goal or two in the Avalanche's 7-0 victory over the Wild, topped by MacKinnon's hat trick.
-BJs or Kings win to force a game 7 and give Colorado an extra day off.
- Celebrate with beer.


What I assume will happen:
- The Wild and Avalanche go three OTs.
- Pens and Kings win.
- I drink beer to numb the pain of gouging out my eyes with a fork.

I envision both of these. Oh wait, you're speaking of the hockey team...

Pens up 3-0 again. Better not **** this up

Malkin put on his superman cape before tonight. Hat trick. 4-0

All tweets pointing to Duchene playing.

Can the Penguins hold a 4-0 lead for one period?!?!!

...eh, forget it.

Good series, Jackets.

Pens should take it.

Fleurys looked good all series minus his game 4

It's official - Duchene plays tonight. PBJ PBJ PBJ

Haven't been this excited for a hockey game in a while and that doesn't help, heh.

Hell, it's probably been a decade since I was this excited for a Chiefs game... if KC had a hockey team, I'd go broke.

I'm still pretty worried, but Dutchy helps. We've looked like total ass in Minnesota thus far, so we're gonna have to get out ahead early and shut the crowd up.

If we lose, I'll still be mostly content if 1) we look competitive (not just because of Varly) and 2) Duchene looks like he could make a difference in Game 7.

Ah this feels good! Go pens!
