Hmmmmm, never thought of that.

I remember in 04' the entire country got behind Calgary and the same thing with Edmonton in 06'. I don't think that happened with Ottawa in 07'.

The big advantage Montreal has is their crowd, and how loud they are.

I see the Sharks winning game four, and Chicago winning in SJ.

Get the brooms out for game 4. Sharks are done, Thornton has gone back in his playoff hole and Pavelski has cooled off considerably. The Hawks are exploiting the weaknesses of the Sharks, especially defensively. Too much talent and speed for the Sharks to handle and it has showed in every game.

What a heart breaker for the Sharks last night. They tie it up, head to OT, and then bam its over and they are down 0-3.
It was a very good game last night, with an awesome breakaway goal.
I see the Sharks winning game 4 as well. No way do they get swept. It may go six, but I see the Hawks winning now.

End of 1 in today's game on NBC, score is tied at 0-0.
Game 4, Flyers at Habs. Flyers lead 2-1.

Back and forth really, Habs have had chances, but nothing yet.

Flyers with a nice sweep in, and Giroux with the top shelf shot.
1-0 Flyers, 2nd.

Bad defense+awesome pass by Pronger=Flyers goal

2-0 Flyers, end of 2.

Not looking good for the Habs, they only had a 1 shot on goal in the whole period.

Flyers take 3-1 series lead. Looks like Flyers-Blackhawks will be your final unless there is a complete collapse from one of them.

As much as it pains me, I have to root for Chicago if that final happens.

Same here.

Toews is going to be one of the top 5 players in the NHL very soon.

Yep, I gotta root for Chicago to win if it ends up being Flyers-Hawks. I like Kane, Chicago hasn't won in a long, long time, they're original six, and the Philly players look like they probably smell like cat pee.

^^ HAHA, all of Philly smells like that though.

I have always said I would root for Original 6 or Canadian teams before anyone else so Hawks get my vote if things go the way they are right now.
