The Preds did great this year before acquiring Radulov and Andrei K., so I look for them to get a win tonight.
I won't comment on the Rangers-Caps for fear of upsetting my friend Davey-Boy.

(Sorry, BWD...couldn't resist. :-))
The refs did miss a call there (Clarkson broke Coburn's stick in half with a slash), but their play cost them the game, for sure. After the first period the Flyers played like they were three goals up, not one. Giroux and Hartnell were more "unnoticable" last night than any other game in the playoffs. Give the Devils some credit there, but they...along with many others, just seemed flat. Bryz really did seem to play well, even in the third when he gave up three.
I'm not too concerned....yet. I think the Flyers will rebound and at least split in Newark. Hopefully, take both.

Too late. I am hiring the other two Hanson brothers to take care of you.

Awesome Rangers-Capitals game...that's playoff hockey!

Can't believe the Rangers pulled that one out. They looked gassed from the 1st OT. Looked to me like the Caps dominated *most* of the OT's.

I saw a lot of heavy legs from the middle of the 1st OT on. A lot of good cycling on both sides. The d-men were having a hard time grinding it out of their end. McDonagh logged over 53 minutes. That is a crazy amount. Ovetchkin's shot looked like the end of the game until it banged off the post. Both goalies had to stand on their head in this one.

Listening on my phone in patrol car last night. Even the radio broadcast was very exciting. Would have loved to watch.
Nice to see Peka rebound. Funny though only checked that game between rangers caps periods.

I paid more attention to the East game too, even though I am more interested in the West....just seemed from early on that the Preds game would never be in doubt.
Now let's go Kings!

Soooooo bitter about last nights game.

it was a great game both teams deserved to win Tim, but that's playoff hockey.

Agreed.

Frustrating game tonight (as a Flyers fan). Quite a few mistakes by some of the "youngins", Schenn and Gustafsson in particular. NJ is playing tough and really shining on the forecheck and cycle.

Kings took out the West #1 seed, and now have the West #2 seed on the ropes. I love these guys!

As long as no one tries to resurrect the "Kelly Hrudey Mullet and Headband", I'll cheer them on

The Kings look very impressive! Of course I am a big fan of their coach as well

Kings become the first #8 seed in NHL history to beat their conferences #1 and #2 seeds in the same season.
Coyotes are #3....
:-)
My Hero of the Day:
Dustin Brown again, 2 goals incuding the game winner.

Well, at least he got a gift last night...not often you can play the puck outside the trapazoid and not get called for a delay of game. The NBCS guys completely screwed up the reason Giroux was so hot at the end of the second (that's what he was PO'd about).
The Flyers are getting completely outplayed by the Devils. Almost seems like there are six or seven Devils on the ice when the pucks are around either the offensive or defensive zone boards.
