[QUOTE="Quickbeam, post: 191944, member: 635"] The Leafs proved me right again! Before I continue patting myself on the back, I'll respond to other questions and comments first ;) Moulin Rogue: No, the Leafs really aren't that good, but then again neither were the NFL's New England Patriots this past season. Toronto just keeps finding enough left in the tank to eke out 4 victories and advance. If you look at the games they've lost thus far, most have been pretty lopsided, while their triumphs have been much more closely contested overall. And Bettman did come off pretty weasley and smarmy during the interview. What bugged me, was that he essentially deflected the questions about the league's excitement at having different teams (like the Sharks, Sens, and Hurricanes) advancing farther into the playoffs than usual AND the strong Canadian presence in this year's postseason. I'm American and [b]LOVE[/b] the fact that Canada still has a rooting interest this year, and would have preferred an all-Canadian Eastern Conference Finals to insure representation in the Cup Finals. Welverin: 1) I agree that the Persson hit on Domi ultimately turned the tide in Toronto's favor and cost Ottawa a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals. Ditto Therrien's bench minor for the Canadiens. 2) Detroit got zippo for Ward...except for Bowman being happy that Aaron had moved on. Every team has stories like this, but it really irks Wings' fans to see so many quality players released or traded for garbage reasons: Oates; Ward; Graves; Primeau; etc. 3) Aren't we [b]ALL[/b] sick of seeing the Avs :D?!? Back to my personal rantings...I hope the Sharks prevail this evening. Namely because I predicted they'd win the series (albeit in six games) and because I'm tired of Colorado. However, should the Avs win tonight, the hockey world will be treated to yet another classic Wings/Avalanche series. See ya back here tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
