Crazy series, Rags just won't die easy. Hard to predict how game 7 is going to go.

Driving me up the wall trying to determine which team is going to show up. After shutting them out in MSG, I was sure the Lightning would put them down tonight.

The Bolts had to take them down tonight. I can't see the Rags losing another one at MSG and not a Game 7. TB can win, but it's a mighty tall order. Will prob be a 2-1 hang on for dear life game.

Back to back game 7's to get the SCF. Bettman couldn't have dreamed a better scenario. I got Rangers and Ducks. I think Tampa has been better than NYR, but there is something to that whole not losing a Game 7 at home in franchise history. Maybe tonight is the end of that streak. If the Rangers lose, I will shower in my son in law's tears.

I thought I was going to get TB/ANA that I was hoping for, but the experience factor may favor NYR/CHI. Going to watch both games and hoping for great contests. Should be fun. Go Bolts and Ducks!

One down, one to go! What a good game from the Lightning. Kinda shocked the Rags got shutout at home. King Henry's first loss in a Game 7, too. Wow!

2nd shut out in a row at MSG!

Really well played game by the Lightning. Can't believe Killorns goal got through.

it doesn't matter how you score, just so you do. :) The 2nd one was a great play and shot. The whole series was enjoyable.

Yes he could. His dream scenario would be a NY/Chi final.

Goalies never win games because they can't score, but even the great ones can let a **** goal in that loses the game and the series.

Never expected 4-1 and end of 2! Kessler with a nice goal followed by a bad penalty and Crawford playing with a lot of confidence. Oh, **** Hossa

Looked like a "kicking motion" or directed it in to me, but what the Hell do I know? That 4th goal might be the dagger in this one.

I can root for Brandon Saad. Can't deny Towes and Kane are the real deal and makes me wonder why are our two stars not that dominate in the post-season? Not a Hawk fan by any stretch, but they are a damn fine team. Reminds me of the St. Louis Cardinals.

Don't think the Bolts have enough to pull it off. Hate the Hawks but they'll take it.
