If the Sharks can actually manage to for once maintain their momentum they will have after beating Detroit in this series (which at this point I am convinced they will barring an absolute collapse by Niemi) I think they will absolutely steamroll Vancouver or Nashville (who I am not convinced are out of this series).
Hedman just made an awful play on that 2-1 after the save. Vinny made a fantastic play to follow his rebound to the corner and threw it right to the middle where Hedman should have been, but Hedman instead was floating near the face off dot rather than either dead center for a pass or on the wall to close off an attempted clear. Had a wide open net if he was in the proper position.
Boston is absolutely housing Philly. Why the hell did they start Boucher again?

Also, who is the fucking idiot who scheduled three playoff games at the exact same time? Tampa doesn't share their arena with somebody do they? Why would they make that a back-to-back game? Wonder if there is a concert or something tomorrow that has the place locked up.

Checked the St Pete Times Forum website, nothing until May 19th when Toy Story on Ice is playing. Why the hell did they do back to back games.
OMG Philly is just getting destroyed. Remember when they could have had Nabokov if Nabby hadn't have walked from their $2 mil/yr contract last summer? How different could they be right now?

That was a ridiculous play by Thornton to have the awareness to slap that puck out of the air back towards the front of the net on San Jose's power play goal just noe.

This is getting frustrating. I flip to Tampa's game miss Boston's third goal. Flip to that game, see their 4th goal but miss two goals in the Tampa game and the Sharks goal.
