well it's official -- Montreal are gonna be playing Boston in the first round of the NHL Playoffs.

that's gonna be one hell of a bloody, and exciting, series. this and Toronto were the two matchups i wanted. it's gonna be electric again this year.

and also because of the Boston win today -- Toronto vs Ottawa.

i like Ottawa but they've been kind of on a tailspin these past few weeks. either team would be a good choice for the second round against Montreal but Toronto is gonna be the biggest matchup. watch those CBC/RDS ratings and the Molson stocks go through the roof if that happens :) beer and pizza for everyone!

i really, really want Montreal to come out on top against Boston. it's gonna a hard one, definitely. but i need them to make it to the second round because ... that's when i got two weeks off of work! :) i'll be working through the first round. i'm gonna be able to catch a few games but i really want to watch them all from buzzer to buzzer. but the second series falls right into my two-week vacation :)

are all canadian teams in now?
Edmonton was tied for 8th with Nashville as of this morning. dunno how that's going, but every other canadian team is in. very good.

holy shit. i just read that the second round wouldn't even be fought against Toronto or Ottawa; it's gonna be the winner of the New York Islanders/Tampa Bay matchup. fuck that shit. i want the ultimate canadian series now.
