Isles have the hockey gods on their side. No way to explain the way that puck sat there for Tavares with no one on Florida knowing it was there other than hockey gods.

They got an assist from the refs. Blatant trip wasn't called maybe 10-15 seconds earlier. That call would have ended the game.

Did not realize that the last playoff series wins for these two teams were two of the most miserable playoff memories in Pens' history -- 1993 vs. NYI, 1996 vs. FLA.

Is it just me or does Frans Nielson get lit up at an abnormally high rate on the ice? I feel like he gets absolutely smoked at least 1 to 2 times per game.

Both of these team are bad. Wings and Flyers might have beat them.

Capuano still looks like Cocaine Dealer #3 from an old Miami Vice episode.

Flyers, yes.

Wings were pretty bad. They wouldn't have made the playoffs if any other team actually won a few games.

How was Florida the top seed in the Atlantic? Was half their team injured right now?

Bortuzzo for the win ~ I dislike Hitchock, but time for Chicago to go away.

Blues all over the Hawks in game 7. They look big and bad.

Not re-signing Hossa was such a mistake.

The whistles certainly seem to have been put away in St. Louis.

Until just now where they made a phantom slash call in the Hawks but then ignore Upshall getting a stab in Crawford after the whistle which should have evened it up.

He made the choice. We offered a better contract. He thought the Wings were the better option to a Cup.

Game 7 one goal game in the third and you send a guy off for hitting a player who had the puck in his skates. NHL has the worst officials.

Tampa Bay-NYI 1-1 early. I actually think the NHL did the right thing by starting the series even though there's still a round-one game remaining. NBA does the same thing.

Isles aren't a bad team but they've been charmed thus far. Tampa had a legitimate chance to tie the game late. Really don't know whom to root for in that series.

Preds just scored the first goal. Boudreau's face just got more red, if that's possible ...
