It's very possible that the top 3 seeds of each conference will be eliminated. Tampa Bay, Washington, Boston from the East. Calgary, Nashville, San Jose, Winnipeg from the west.

Caps are flying tonight at home and really punishing the Canes all over the ice. Got a PP goal for a 1-0 lead but total domination in the 1st period.

Pens have already gone from 23rd to 21st in the draft with Columbus and Colorado winning. Rooting for St. Louis, Vegas, Dallas, Carolina to move the Pens up to 17th.

Talk of domination Blues outshooting Winnipeg 30-10 four minutes into the third period in what is an elimination game for the Jets.

I think the odds are pretty good that Dallas, St. Louis, and Vegas win. Not holding out much hope for the Canes, but I can see them taking the series to a 7th game.

What a great trade Sundqvist and a 1st for Reaves was. Set in motion a series of bad trades that got worse until we might have fixed things with Bjugstad and McCann but what a horrible and stupid overpayment that was especially when we had a hug hole in the middle after that.

Sundqvist did nothing for St. Louis last year, he has come on playing wing not center this year.

Not to mention that in a roundabout way, Sundqvist got the Penguins McCann who is a far superior player. I'd rather have McCann and Blugstad than Scott Wilson, Sundqvist and a few draft picks.

Yep, and even their fans managed to pick up on how the path is set up for the Caps. Last week when they were getting drubbed by the Canes in Raleigh, a few went to Twitter to gripe that the Caps were "blowing a golden opportunity now that Tampa and the Pens were out."

It's sickening. The Craps team of the last two years has even really been all that impressive to me. The 16 and 17 teams were far more threatening yet it's the recent teams that finally won the Cup and have a good shot at doing it again. As disappointing as the Pens have been this season they still beat the Caps in 3 out of 4 games this year and have mostly owned them aside from last year's playoffs.

Caps down 3-2 and going to the PK thanks to a sneaky, dirty play by Stephenson. Here's to a 3-3 series and a home ice upset.

No matter how much Edzo whines it won’t change the fact Ovechkin pushed Mrazek into the net with the puck. No goal.

WOOOOO! Canes and Caps heading for a Game 7. Stellar work by Carolina and their crowd. Home team has won every game so far.

If Crosby pulled the crap Ovi did at the end of the game he'd get crucified in the media.

Watching Ovie get tossed revealed the difference between he and Crosby. One word ..... class. Ovie has none.

Game 7 should be fun to watch.

How is that a 5 minute major? Talk about decision by injury. Two minute cross check at most. It was a fluky thing and nowhere near an intent to injure.
