The Hawks are going to beat the Wild. But they'll need to step it up a notch or two if they are going to beat the Ducks or Sharks.

Why I thought the Canucks would turn it around this year after last years first round exit is beyond me?

Isles management moved my seats 2 rows closer to the action. They lied and said the media had access to those seats. It was just a big group sale. They sent my Playoff tickets (same as regular season tickets) via UPS on Tuesday, then sent others on Friday. Same location (behind goalie), just 2 rows closer. Why they had to lie about it and say my regular seats were reserved for the media (for the playoffs) is just typical corporate BS.

That crowd was the loudest I've ever been to since Game 5 of the 1969 NBA Finals between the Knicks and Lakers where the Knicks came back from a 31 point second quarter deficit to beat the Lakers. That was the game Willis Reed went down early in the first quarter and Dave Debusher ended up guarding Wilt Chamberlain and ending up stuffing him when the Knicks went on that incredible run in the third quarter.

That was the greatest game I've ever seen. Today was great, but not the greatest.

Heartbreak Hotel.

People were crying after the game.

NBC must have been thrilled. They aired a tremendous game.
