The hockey is decent but it's disappointingly tame overall. Winnipeg and St. Louis are trying to hurt each other but otherwise it's been pretty tame. I thought Florida and Tampa were supposed to hate each other? Gonna be a war? Looked more like they were getting ready to go golfing together. 

Maybe the 4 Nations spoiled me but so far the best hockey of the year was in that not this. 

I disagree

You think it's physical? I'm not saying it's not fast and skilled. Just that it's not as physical as I expected.

I've only been able to watch the Habs/Caps game on Monday. That game was really physical. Can't speak to the others, but I really enjoyed that game.

For most of the game, the Caps looked much bigger/stronger than the Habs and it looked like they were gonna boat race them. But the Habs kept fighting and eventually forced OT. I don't like their chances in that series at all, but MTL is a well coached team with a roster that doesn't get rattled and plays well together. They did their rebuild right and should have a bright future.

And there it is Jeff Skinners NHL playoff career has stopped at 1 game   He's a healthy scratch tonight 

is it wrong that I take joy into his failure ?

Old “friend” Evander Kane draws into his spot. I like him a lot less than Skinner.

On these nice warm, sunny spring days I have flashbacks to moments in my youth when the Sabres were in the playoffs. I can almost smell it in the air. 
 

I am starting to forget the euphoric feeling. Even if we make the playoffs next year we are looking at a first round 4-1 series elimination. At least these playoffs have been entrertaining. It really does help that there is no Boston Bruins hockey in the first round

The Blues and Jets are playing a very physical series so far.
 

Jets have more speed and skill, but St Louis has been working very hard.
