Sounds like the NHL and NHLPA finally agreed on a deal.

Now who's ready for some hockey??

Wow. You couldn't have written a more embarrassing end of the season for the Penguins. Not only did they get swept, but they only scored 2 goals the ENTIRE SERIES.
Any time Pittsburgh is playing golf and the playoffs are still going on makes me happy.

Amen - Crosby was a non-factor, Malkin couldn't captalize and their defense was terrible - I've seen high school teams with better breakouts.

Very happy to see the Bruins getting this over quickly - even homer sports talkers in Boston were coming into the series with very tempered expectations.

An original six series against the Blackhawks would be cool.

Can't believe they put one in with 10 seconds to go.

And goodbye LA. Decent series, but Chicago just seemed to have an extra step in game 5. LA just looked gassed.

Should be an interesting finals. Two original six teams and surprisingly, the first time they've met for the Stanley Cup.

Eh. You kinda figured they were going to lose after they couldn't put it away in the first OT, after putting on so much pressure. I was waiting for it to happen. Good season. Maybe another year.

laugh out loud Yes, this is true. I was starting to wonder whether I would ever see it happen, so I can't complain. Kings made it much further this year than I thought they would, so we still had a good, impressive run. Winning back to back is hard and as much as I was hopeful, I wasn't really expecting it.

Go Bruins, I guess?

There are two types of people in the world. Those who root FOR the team that eliminated them, and those that root AGAINST.


Go Bruins.

If only there could be ties in the SCF. Then I'd say Go Nobody!

That was probably the lamest awards show I've ever seen.
