You're right. Playoff hockey is fantastic! High Definition means you can follow the puck like never before. Almost as good as being there.
And wow, Pittsburgh and Vancouver already playing golf.

Playoff hockey is the best. Been watching many of the eastern conference series. Exciting, Fast, Hard Hitting, Nail Biters. Like that Boston & the Rangers won, making it to game 7. Would like to see that match up the next round. Boston fans probably remember last years 3-0 against the Flyers, losing next 4....Ooch! That series would be exciting.

Bruins and Rangers can not meet in the next round, but it would be one heck of a series to determine the Eastern conference champion. Not to be picky, but the Bruins did not lose to Philly last year, if you recall the Bruins won the Stanley cup in 2011!!!!! It was 2010 when we fell to Philly who then went on to the finals. Just saying.

My Bad. Last year series Bruins 4-0 vs Flyers.
I was looking at the bracket from NHL.com NHL.com - The Stanley Cup Rankings is how they pair up in the next round. Thanks for setting me straight. My son is a die heart Patriots fan and has a (Bruins shirt & fan....I think as long as they keep winning).

Don't count out the Capitals just yet, we got a game 7 to go.

Good win for the Capitols and tough loss for the Bruins.

I was all settled back for 20 minutes of action and BAM - game over.

Two more games tonight - NY Rangers vs Ottawa and Florida vs NJ

Go Rangers! Go Florida!

Round 1 is over - several upsets based on ranking.

Now for round 2 (round 1 ranking in parens):

Phoenix (3) vs Nashville (4)
St Louis (2) vs Los Angeles (8)

New York (1) vs Washington (7)
Philadelphia (5) vs New Jersey (6)

I like Nashville, St Louis, New York and Philadelphia.
