Ovie has indeed hit his stride, the Caps are looking pretty good in this series so far. Caps lead the Rangers 2-0 in the series.
Montreal-Ottawa -- Series tied 1-1. With regard to "the hit" my take on it is that it was a clean hit, there was no interferance as Eller had puck possession. If there is fault it lies with the guy who made the pass and to the guy who had his head down in mid-ice inviting a hit. I think the resulting penalty and one game suspension was enough, Shannahan didn't have to add a second game to it. I played hockey for 20 years, I know a clean hit when I see one.
Vancouver-San Jose --- SJ leads series 2-0. The Canucks are digging themselves a nice little hole. Luongo is playing great, I am never sure why their fans are always on him when they lose but when they're winning he's the greatest. Newsflash Vancouver, it isn't your goalie, it's the lack of performance and production from the top forwards.
Toronto-Boston --- Series tied 1-1. Nice to see the Loafs come to life and take a split going back to TO. It will be interesting to see how the next two games play out.
I'm also watching the IIHF world hockey championships, at least every game Canada and team USA have. But I DVR every NHL playoff game as well, it's like a veritable hockeygasm going on right now. I love it. :D
