Not that I believe the Sen's have a snowball's chance....

Um, FYI, the Sens are not playing Boston. The Caps have the privilege starting tonight.

Stuff happens. They still had to get 3 more to win. You could also say that the bad call should have fired up the Pens to a higher level of determination but I think they sat back and said to themselves "we've got this one".
In other news,
The Canuck lose the first one and everyone is shocked. A first game win or loss means little other than to look at how it was played. Looks like it could be a rough and tumble battle. Bitz: ugly boarding.
Catfish or Octopus? I predict the Wings in 7 and last night was a good indicator that it will be a 7 game series. Maybe the best one to watch other than the Panic in Pennsylvania. Sheas needs to sit in the corner for a game and think about what he did.
Tonight its Ovechkin versus Chara. The rest of the teams will be there but that will be the matchup to watch. The supporting cast of Seguin, Seidenberg, Bergeron, Backstom, Semin... Holtby could be the surprise star player or crush under the pressure. If he crushes (or Ovi does his usual crash and burn in the clutch it will be a short series.
I won't say who I'm rooting for to win
