the west is the best.

and it's only fitting that the last two NHL CHAMPS face off in a game 7.

to be the best u gotta beat the best.

go KINGS!

I'm obviously rootin' for the Kings, but I gotta admit, I DO feel good for Alain Vigneault, because the Canucks let him go, thinking that he was the problem when it was really the team.

I am bummed we can't hear Sara Diamond sing the American anthem one more time at a raucous game seven. Centre Bell is the true madhouse and makes the United Center look like a senior bingo night in comparison.

Is she the Canadian Kate Smith? I'm more glad to be done with that creepy video we had in Philly.

Now I'm torn. Playing in Chicago is both timezone & travel preferable but both teams have downsides.

HMMMMM

On Sunday, the Montreal Canadiens and their mascot Youppi! fulfilled the terms of a bet made with late night television host Jimmy Fallon.

Because the Canadiens lost the best-of-7 Eastern Conference Final to the New York Rangers 4-2, the team changed its Twitter avatar to a picture of Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist playing guitar. In addition, Youppi! tweeted 10 pictures of himself wearing a Rangers jersey around town before ending Sunday morning by riding a mechanical bull at Montreal bar Chez Serge.

Beginning with a shot looking up at Montreal's Bell Centre, here's Youppi's! tour of the town wearing a Rangers jersey with Fallon's name.

I mean they both will be tough. Chicago is geographically & game time preferable.

Plus Chicago doesn't have a top tier brand name goalie. Those can come in handy in the playoffs.

Don't all playoffs forget the leafs? I thought I read on NHL.com that the playoffs "unfriended" the leafs on Facebook. I'm pretty sure the playoffs are BFF with the ducks now

Crawford gives up a massive rebound that leads to a goal and then makes a great save a few minutes later. He's so inconsistent and all over the place yet can be brilliant. Imagine the Hawks with Lunquist? They'd be unbeatable.

6 and a half minutes left, we could see 4-5 more goals in regulation

Greg Millen just said he can't believe the rebounds both these goalies are giving up. Glad I wasn't just being overly critical.
