Earlier this week the Carolina Hurricanes got rights to Jared Staal and have signed him. Jared's older brother, Eric Staal, is captain for the Hurricanes so we are sure to see a family affair!

Playoff's Recap: Day 24
Way to make it suck Hawks. In a game that could have easily closed the series the Blackhawks choked and let the Canucks have their way with them. The Canucks started off strong with a goal a minute in and it was smooth sailing for them from then on. The only Hawks goal came from team captain Jonathan Toews in the third period but aside from that the Hawks game sucked! The two teams will be back in Vancouver Tuesday for Game 6.

Playoffs Recap: Day 24
The Sharks are the first team to make it to the conference finals knocking out the Red Wings. Despite a nice drive by the Wings who kept the game tied for most of it, the Sharks broke their playoff bad luck spell!
The Penguins pleased their home fans in a 2-1 game against the Canadiens. In your face CALAMARI!
Short and sweet :)

So Bruins lost...in OT... suck...
Blackhawks won though and there was another hat trick! Jonathan Toews completely took over last night and netted three goals, the game with a final score of 7-4 in favor of the Hawks!
Tonight the Penguins and Canadiens go at it in Game 5.

Playoffs Recap: Day 22
The Penguins fought hard but fell short in tonight's game against the Habs. Pens/Habs final score was 3-2 despite an ongoing lead by the Pens. The series is now tied 2-2.
Crazy night in Hockeytown where Johan Franzen scored 4 goals in just one period and the overall score was 7-1!!! Guess the Red Wings aren't ready to end their season. Boys are back in San Jose Saturday for Game 5.

Exchanging Recipes Maybe?
The Hawks and Canucks go at it in front of the Hawks bench @ game 3 in Vancouver. The Hawks are standing high and mighty and totally mouthing off. When you're up 5-2 though you got bragging rights. Adam Burish? TOO FUNNY
Playoff's Recap: Day 21
So I'm beginning to think my Bruins shirt has magical mystical powers. Every game I have worn it for the Bruins have won and tonight's game was no exception!! Full recaps are boring so like always I'll give you the important details. Asham scored the only goal for the Flyers about two and a half minutes into the game. Two minutes later Wheeler scored and then came Satan's little sploosh. WOW! It looked like he was skating in slow motion and right as he was about to pass the net he tapped it in past Boucher. With two more goals scored in the third by Bergeron and veteran Recchi the Bruins were able to seal the game tight and now anticipate Game 4 in Philly where they very well may take the series.
The Hawks game was nothing short of FANTASTIC, EXHILARATING and VENGEFUL! Good god this has to be one of the most interesting series’ so far. The bad blood between the Canucks and Hawks only makes the game so much more interesting. Aside from exceptional game play you get a side order of extreme checks, mouthing off and lots of fights. The Hawks took the game with an ending 5-2 score and pretty much laid out the Canucks while at it. The star of the game was Big Buff though who got the first Hawks playoff hat trick since like the 70s! With only three minutes left in the game an all out brawl ensued right in front of the Hawks bench centering around Bolland and Burrows (video coming soon). You can see the Hawks bench all smiles, Burish and Eager mouthing off, as O’Brien is backed away, HILARIOUS. The Hawks now lead the series 2-1 and return for Game 4 in Vancouver on Friday.

Playoff's Recap: Day 20
20 days of playoff's and the action is only getting better!
Today the Penguins and Canadiens played their first semifinal game in Montreal and unfortunately things did not go well for the Canadiens. Fleury managed to get a shutout (looks like he's finally starting to play like a Stanley Cup Champion) and Malkin finally netted one after a five game dry spell. Just because they lost does not mean the Habs didn't play well. Halak was still a force and notable presences on the ice were former Florida Panther Dominic Moore and P.K. Subban. The Penguins now lead the series 2-1. The Habs and Pens go for game 4 in Montreal on Thursday.
Tomorrow's Schedule:

Hockeytown fell silent tonight. The Sharks have taken a strong 3-0 lead over the Red Wings after yesterday's OT game. Despite early goals by the Wings and even a penalty shot opportunity, the veteran team fell to the California team. The Sharks hope to close out this series Thursday night in Detroit.

That's more like it!
Finally a night where both my teams win!
B's take Flyers 3-2...up on series 2-0 heading to Philly.
Hawks win it 4-2...tie series 1-1 heading to Vancouver.
Hopefully the Pens & Sharks can pull off W's tonight...completing a quartet of wins for my teams.
Playoff's Recap: Day 19
It was a great day in Hockey for both the Boston Bruins and Chicago Blackhawks.
The Bruins have taken a strong lead over the Flyers after today's win in a 3-2 game. With goals from Satan and Boychuck the Bruins are off to a great series start.
The Blackhawks game was another success. Canuck Mason Raymond got an early goal followed by another by Mikael Samuelsson but the Hawks didn't stop their game. Brent Seabrook netted one in the first and from there on the team had some momentum. With no scoring in the 2nd the Hawks came back in the 3rd with an amazing goal by the Sharp Shooter Patrick Sharp. Steeger's game winner showed just how great the Hawks are at passing the puck and then Patrick Kane sealed the deal with an empty net goal with 45 seconds to spare. The Hawks are back in the game and have tied the series 1-1.

Playoff's Recap: Day 15 and 16
Although I have a strange attraction to the Wings I will admit I did not watch the game. I caught some highlights the following day but that's all. The Sharks took an early lead in the game and it looked like the Wings were going to get shut out but they made an amazing comeback. The Sharks kept the lead though and won 4-3.
The Penguins/Canadiens game was a blast of energy and it is safe to say that Halak has met his match. The Penguins got 4 pucks past Halak before the Canadiens put Price in. Although they had a great win with a final score of 6-3, the Pens still suffered a great loss when Jordan Staal took the blade of P.K. Subban to his foot. Staalsy had surgery to repair a lacerated tendon and although he is not ruled out of the rest of the playoff's he is currently on day to day.
The Hockey Bees hope for a speedy recovery and may Staalsy be back soon!
In just half an hour the Chicago Blackhawks begin their series against the Vancouver Canucks so be sure to watch!!

There Will Be Blood... PART 2
Tomorrow night the Blackhawks and the Canucks meet again in what is sure to be an anger/revenge filled series!
Brooks Laich: What a Stand Up Guy
As if girls needed another reason to love Brooks Laich! As most people know, the Capitals lost in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup quarterfinals to the Montreal Canadiens. The boys left the locker room angry and sad yet Brooks Laich still stopped to help a fan change her tire.
Brooks doesn't see the big deal about it but when you're gorgeous and a hockey player any little thing you do is a big deal, especially after a loss like that. Brooks own words were 'Just because my day sucked didn't mean I couldn't help someone'. For full story from the Washington Post click HERE.

Part 2
Seed of doubt planted...
Oh how the mighty have fallen. With the exception of Brooks Laich (because in my eyes that man can do no wrong) the rest of the Washington Capitals find themselves in an odd predicament...my bad side. After the beyond amazing season they had, their run at Lord Stanley was cut short by the 8th seeded Montreal Canadiens...8th seeded!!! Un-fucking-believable. With the arsenal of weapons the Caps had all season, NO ONE showed up to play. Their power play went to shit, along with most of the big boys on the team. As a captain Ovechkin was nowhere to be found, the team just seemed to fall apart.
Now I'm not taking one red cent away from Montreal, they came together to rally from being down 3 games to 1 and proved to be a serious contender for the cup. Halak, MVP of the playoffs as of right now...131 saves in the last 3 games...hello?!?! That is fantastic. Brodeur who?!?!
One more question begs to be asked...how will this affect the Caps next season? After a meltdown of epic proportions, how can they bounce back? In the end there's only one way to describe the ending to the Capitals season...sucky.

Playoffs Recap: Day 14
A disappointing end to a disappointing series. Who would have thought the Washington Capitals, the unstoppable force of the regular season, would lose in the first round? I'm not even going to go into details except that the Habs took it with a 2-1 win with goals by Bergeron and Moore for the Habs and Laich for the Caps.
The playoffs continue tomorrow where the Sharks and the Red Wings start their semifinal series in San Jose.

Playoffs Recap: Day 12
Extremely proud of the Hawks and Bruins! Both closed out their series and our moving on to the semifinals!
The Hawks did most of their scoring in the first period with goals from Keith, Kane, Sharp and Toews and in the last seconds of the game Madden tossed one into an empty net. The Hawks will now move on to playing the Sedin twins and the Canucks!!
The Bruins also closed out their series against the Sabres at home in Boston. David Krejci was #1 star with two goals scored against Ryan Miller. It is still unclear which team the Bruins will play in the semifinals.
Last and CERTAINLY LEAST we have the Caps/Habs game. As it looks right now I can tell you the Capitals don't look like they're going to the finals. Maybe they're tired or maybe they just got too cocky but this is not the same team that dominated the regular season. The Caps scored just one goal in last night's game to the Canadiens' four. The Capitals return to DC for game 7.

The Red Wings chose the wrong day to not show up to play. In a game they could have closed the series out with they lagged behind and the Coyotes beat them in a 5-2 game. The two teams will head back to Phoenix for game 7.
The Canucks on the other hand played a great game , Daniel Sedin tying the game late in the third and Alexandre Burrows came in a minute later to break the tie and win the game. The Canucks in the semifinals will play the winner from the Blackhawks/Predators series.
