Disappointment and Hope

Yesterday morning I was so excited for the next two NHL playoff games to come. Unfortunately, last night the Wings absolutely killed the Yotes 6-1. This game looked as if it was going to be close after the first period which remained scoreless. It even looked tight when the score was still 2-1. Then the Wings added a goal around the 14th minuet and another with five seconds left in the second period. At this point I'm sure everyone thought the Yotes were out of it and everyone was correct. The Wings added two more goals in the third and they move on to play the Sharks in the next round. From past experiences in the playoffs I believe that the Wings are going to beat the Sharks on the pure fact that the Sharks never preform well in the playoffs, even though they did seem to make it past the first round of these playoffs with relatively no trouble.



The last game of the first round is being played tonight and it's a series I'm sure no one thought would go to a 7th game. It started off good for Les Canadiens with a game 1 win, but in game two they dropped the ball and gave up a huge lead. The Caps then won the next 2 games, but the Canadiens are resilient and ended up upsetting the Caps in games 5 and 6. So, that leave us with game 7 tonight. After watching the Wings kill the Preds last night I'm not feeling so great about this game 7 tonight. I did, however, talk to a kid I know who is a Caps fan and asked him how he felt and he said he doesn't feel good, so that's some semi positive news. Barry Melrose even said this morning on Sports Center that he doesn't think that Ovie and keep up with Sid and that
Mike Green is playing awful defence.

So, we'll see tonight who'll win and we hope it's not the Caps! If not just for the pure fact that we really really hate Ovechkin and most of the Capitals "star powered" team, then because of that stupid Caps Rap video posted earlier this season.
