Pens and Wings Cup final, I give the Bruins alot of credit for playing great hockey against the Rangers but I don't be with my heart anymore and the Pens look like their Destined to be in the Cup final. They have too many weapons and Vokoun has won 16 of his last 18 games which is fairly impressive, and only lost one game in the playoffs. 

Now in the west the Wings are looking really dangerous now and Chicago can certainly battle back and move on but I have a feeling that won't happen. Detroit has a one game lead and has shown that they can score goals. There's always next round but that will be for another day. Anyone esle picked this Cup Finals matchup?

IF it Penguins vs Bruins it all comes down to WHICH Penguins team SHOWS UP. the one that tends to "screw off" a times OR the one that FILLS the NET like tonight in Ottawa?

B's v. Pens really is a toss up. Rask and the young D are holding their own plus getting healthier. Pretty tough to stop the potent scoring Pens but I could see it happen in a couple games and B's are finding their groove on O too so dont discount them just yet. I see that series going 6-7 easy and then it comes down to who gets more bounces and makes fewer mistakes. Pens or B's, both are great representatives for the East. 

I still like Hawks out of the West but they need to handle RW's first which is never easy this time of year. SJ and LAK are also playing inspired hockey. Can't wait to see who advances. Playoffs have been intense.

Voukon isn't a goalie that can weather the storm.  IF they get to next series vs. Bruins id be concerned about his ability to keep pucks out of the net.  Rask has ability to steal a few games - would be a close series but theres still a few games to win to get there.....

If you think Tukka Rask and the B's defense are playing  great, you are mistaken what's really happening...

The truth is they are not facing a great offensive squad like the Pens... They are not even facing a good offensive squad... I'm not sure if they are facing an offensive squad at all.... Rangers are pathetic... 

With Seidenberg and Ference still out, Chara is going to get burned if he continues to play 30+ minutes / game. 

All i'm saying is don't get too excited over the fact that Bruins are leading 3-0 against the worst team still in the playoffs.

Pens are the absolute opposite of the Rangers, and they are 3-0 against Boston this year  





























Let's Go Bruins

IF Bruins fans think Tuukka Rask is the answer, you better watch the replay of game 4 with the Rangers. should have been an easy B's win to close out.

I will stick with "TV Geezer" as long as he's getting decent "goal support". Pens "chased" probably the best goalie left in the eastern playoff, Anderson, 2 of 4 games this series and need to "close out" Friday
