Playoff Hockey...

Some hockey news…Ottawa wins their series, defeating the Tampa Bay Lightning, so that’s one Canadian team on to the second round! New Jersey also won their series, defeating the NY Rangers to move on. Elsewhere, Edmonton has surprisingly taken a 3-2 series lead over the Detroit Red Wings. Pronger got another 3 assists too. The Pronger, Samsonov, and Roloson deals are looking pretty good for the Oil right about now. Here’s hoping they pull out another win. Calgary also leads their series over the Ducks 3-2, so there’s another chance for a couple Canadian teams to move on. Not looking good for Montreal though. Saku Koivu is out injured, and the ‘Canes are pretty much free running the goalie. That series is tied at 2, so it’s down to a best of 3 now. Here’s hoping for some heroics out of Montreal…
