    The Bruins were just down 2-0 with both losses being at home too, so the Caps' series is far from over.

      Add me to the list of people pulling for a Bolts/Preds Stanley Cup.

      I'm sure the TV ratings would suck, but it'd be cool to see to more Southern teams make it since Carolina is really the only other club to have success.

        Obviously, the next game will be HUGE. Hopefully they can come out strong at home, and cruise to the conference finals. It's been a little while for lightning fans, but man... I forgot how much fun it is to watch the playoffs when your team is rolling.
        You won the Stanley Cup in 2004.

          Exactly. Brooks Laich said this last night. 2 of the goals for TB so far have been 100% luck (deflections off Hannan and Green), but they've also done a great job of protecting their leads and taking advantage when they do get legit chances. The Caps have dominated in scoring chances but Roloson has been good. I think the Caps are due, but we'll obviously see.

            I'm still sour about that no-goal call in Game 6. The puck crossed the line, damn it!

              Something needs to change in Detroit this offseason. They are very clearly a second class team in the West now.
              Hard to score goals when the other team is diving for calls every 2 minutes. Swear San Jose and Montreal should have a contest to see which team can draw the most bs dive calls.

                Lol. Oh well get ready for more. though all those dives were helped. I see quite of few Bruins doing the same thing.

                  I know. That why I said a little while... as opposed to a long while, or forever, etc. And I wasn't talking about the Stanley Cup specifically.. I was just trying to state how it was nice to see my favorite hockey team playing well after a few years in the cellar.

                  I haven't heard anyone say the series was over yet. It seems to me like it's only Caps fan bringing that up. They were one of the very best teams in the league this year, I don't think anyone is counting them out just yet.. But the odds certainly aren't in their favor anymore.

                    Tampa? Dallas? If anything, Sun Belt teams have been over-represented during the last 10-12 years.

                      I would think that what the NHL would want is Detroit and Washington to reign in the casual fans. Maybe Detroit/Philly, but every knows Ovie's face in the casual observer world and can even paint him as a villian if they want to from his Olympics "antics". Any other matchup would probably not bring up ratings, at least in this country. Hockey just doesn't matter as much, especially with MLB taking on stronger life each year.

                        LOL right, somehow I knew you'd have a reply like this. Boston doesn't even remotely flop anywhere even close to the extreme that the Habs do on a regular basis. Hell my ex has started to call Devin Setoguchi, Diving Devon.

                          Which is funny because he has not got a penality call for him. Logan did overact with he got a stick to the face, but I haven't seen too many dives. They are to busy racing the puck. Watch your team tonight and then come back here and wait for my post.

                            Meh, every team has guys who embellish. You can't take it personal just because you're a fan of the team. I hate it when I see players on my favorite teams do stupid things, but it's not me, I can't control it.

                            That said, some teams do have more of an "identity" then others. The Leafs of the early 2000's pissed me off to no end with Tucker and McCabe (to a lesser extent Domi). And Quinn at the helm whining like a little biatch!
