The Habs lost yesterday, but unfortunately, I don’t have time to write about it now. And I couldn’t watch the game, because I had to get up freaking early today. So you’d probably be better off reading another recap somewhere else!
Biron is failing me so far…. twerp….
You’re right, he hates you…
Apparently the Caps hate me now too…. x-x
Man, looking at my picks from here, they’re terrible!
Actually, I just double-checked my Sent Items, I said Chicago in 7.
I’m obviously quite wrong about Caps sweeping the Rangers, and I’m truly surprised, I guess I didn’t know much about the Rangers’ strengths.
I can’t remember what my reasoning was for picking the Blues, since the Canucks are looking better than ever, like a true Cup contender.
You’re right Shan, my mistake! I don’t know what happened, because I also messed up with my own picks… I had picked Chicago in 5, and not Calgary (I swear!) I edited the post.
I don’t really think anyone saw the rangers upsetting the caps like that. This series is not over yet, but Washington is in serious trouble!
