    The other team

    Nobody really. I'd love to see Pittsburgh lose. I hate both Chicago and St. Louis, so it's a shame they can't both lose. But if I root for another team, it's only because I don't want someone else to win. Not because I actually like that team I'm rooting for. The last time I rooted for another team in and of itself was Anaheim in 2003. They had a lot of vets who'd never won the Cup, were a feelgood story, and I actually like Kariya in those days.

    4/13 GDT: Red Wings 3 @ Blues 0

    I've also had the same experience. Nothing worse than a fanbase that acts like their team has actually won something in its 45+ year history, when in reality, it hasn't won squat. They'd probably lose to Chicago even if they were healthy. Only difference is, their injuries made them drop in the standings in order to play Chicago instead of Minnesota or Dallas. But still, the Blues are not a team that gets it done in the playoffs.

    St. Louis has lost in the early rounds the last two years in a row. Looks like three years this season, because I don't see them beating Chicago. They're becoming a team that's only good for the regular season.

    Ryan Smyth Retirement Night

    Good player, but one of the more overrated players of his generation.
  5. Howard has to be the best player in the world for two weeks if we're going to beat Boston.

    Sproul and Ouellet recalled from Grand Rapids

    Benching Lashoff for the playoffs is the right thing to do.

    Puck Daddy: Trotz Head Coach for Caps

    When did you become a mod?

    Play em or rest em?

    Rest everyone. I want to see a top line of Bertuzzi, Samuelsson and Cleary.

    Pens or Bruins

    The Pens and Wings are #1 and #2 in man games lost this season. It'd be ironic if they met in the first round.

    Pens or Bruins

    Can we play Buffalo instead?

    Pens or Bruins

    Probably the Pens, and only because Malkin and Crosby are so fragile with injuries. Fleury can stink it up too. At the same time, their powerplay would rape our PK. And they get a lot of powerplays.

    4/9 GDT - Red Wings 3 @ Pens 4 (SO). Wings clinch playoff spot!

    You're forgetting Cleary will be back in the playoffs. This is the time of year he lives for. He doesn't care about the rest of the season. He rises to the occasion in the clutch, when most of us would fail under similar pressure.

    That's an anomaly. Team has scored more for him this season, but his save percentage isn't that good. I can't imagine him in a 7 game playoff series. It'd be like a heart attack on every shift.

    Nah. Guy is always out of position, and his saves only look amazing as a result of that. Kinda like Hasek, but he's nowhere near Hasek's league. Gustavsson is too wild in his style. No wonder he gives up so many bad goals. Entertaining to watch, though. Kind of like a clown.

    LOL. Pretty much summaries Gustavsson's goaltending skills. Total ******* clown.

    I wonder who we're going to play in the SCF.

    Told you guys we'd tie it.

    Like they'd make it that easy for us.

    I'd take Boston at this point. I just don't want us to miss the playoffs.

    They need to play Friday night like it's the last game of their lives.

    Brian Lashoff playing in the NHL is one of the greatest feelgood stories you'll ever see.
