If it wasn't for Pecka playing lights out last night, Canucks win 5-0. Preds looked out of sync majority of game. It's gonna be a short series if they don't wake up.

Crap. Really want to see the Preds move on for selfish reasons. If they play the Wings next round, I won't have to endure those 10:30 pm start times! Plus it would be great for the city of Nashville.

It's already been good around here. I've actually created some hockey fans at work talking about the first round. Now only if they will stick around a little longer.....

Good luck with the Sharks. Helps having Zetterberg back, eh?

For sure. Nice rest for them. I have a couple of guys right next to me that are from Chicago and Detroit and hockey was the way we bonded. Nice to have people to talk about the playoffs with, I wish I could find a horseracing "buddy" too.

At least the way the series is playing out with the Sharks, the only game that could potentially be one of those awful weeknight 10:30 p.m. EST starts is game seven, and let's not hope it goes that far. Game one tonight, game two Sunday, games 3-4 are Wednesday-Friday, game five also on Sunday, and game six back at the Joe. Only game seven has potential for severe sleep loss.

Wow. Sharks-Red Wings just put on a show. Action packed OT. Crappy way for the Wings to lose it.

Based on game one, this has a repeat of the 2010 series all over it. Wings control early, Sharks get a rush of questionable calls late, spend eight of the last 13 minutes on the power play, and win on a deflection in overtime moments after the Wings had killed the weakest 4:00 high sticking call that I've ever seen.

Just saying, why is it that whenever the Wings play the Sharks, the Wings are suddenly called for double their average in penalties? It's like freaking clockwork.
