On a serious note, it's not likely we'll see that for a while. Not this year anyway, the Canucks are not generating much emotion in Vancouver right now. I was there on the weekend and most people are resided to the fact that they probably won't make it past the first round. The next time the Canucks go on a run, or if someday they win it, we'll see another riot.

I'll be honest, I'm sort of hoping for Pittsburgh tonight just to keep this great series going a little longer. I don't want it over in four games.

No love for Vancouver however. I hope LA nails them. After seeing them dummy Vancouver like this, I'm really hoping for LA to make it far in the West. They deserve a reward for killing the Canucks like this.

I kind of like that the Oilers have won the same number of playoff games as Vancouver and Pittsburgh have so far this year.

LOL Red Wings... 4 players (including the goalie) following the puck.

I'm ready to see the Flyers end this tonight!

There is little to no hope of the Canucks winning 4 in a row against a team as tight checking as the Kings, so your hot and heavy hate of the Canucks and our rioting city will soon come to an end for this year. So, from the City of Vancouver I say fuck you.

Wow! Claude Giroux has really established himself as a MVP caliber player. Also great seeing one of fav players, Voracek having a breakout playoff campaign. Go Flyers !!

Pens vs Flyers is crazy...

Its like no defense no goalie, goals everywhere..

[Nicko999]

Absolutely ridiculous...

4-3 Penguins AFTER 20 MINUTES!!!

[Travis007]

Feels like playing NHL 12 on rookie mode.

[arkitekte]

Garbage goal tending all around.

[vegeta_skyline]

O-kay... 7 straight goals now for Pittsburgh. I'm not going to delude myself into thinking this will change the outcome of the series. But this has got to be the most ridiculous playoff series in a long time, talk about shit goaltending and defense galore.

[Yume-sama]

The roles of who sucked the least were bound to reverse eventually!

[Nicko999]

9-3 Pittsburgh after 40 minutes...

This is now the highest scoring first 4 games of a serie in NHL history tied with Edmonton-Chicago (in 84 or 87, I don't remember what year they said).

The biggest surprise these playoffs is seeing the Glendale Arena full, I know there was a lot of blackhawks fans there but I've never seen so many coyotes fans. Where did they come from?

Anyways, let's go Whitecaps?

Paid actors?

[Spring2008]

Let's go Kings!!!!Has the first place team every been swept by the 8th place team in the first round of the playoffs?? You can do it L.A! Canada's with you haha!!

[Ayreonaut]

Flyers...

I guess I'm one of the few cheering for the Pens in that series?

[arkitekte]

That Flyers/Pens game was pathetic on both defenses, I wanted the Flyers to get the sweep, but at least we will have another game to look forward to.

Lets see if the Kings can get this win!

[Metro-One]

10 to 3 final! With 8 unanswered goals, wow, now that was an ass whooping.
