NHL Playoff Update!!!

If you haven't been watching (CAPS FANS), the NHL Playoffs are getting very very interesting. Remember that gritty team that wasn't supposed to have a chance against the superior talented Penguins?? Well the Habs are back at it, the Canadiens have come back to tie the series against the Pens at 2 games a piece. They waited until the Caps were up 3 games to 1 before coming back to win that series in 7 games, this time they didn't wait nearly as long!! Sid the Kid has yet to put a puck in the back of the net, the Canadeins have done a great job taking him out of this series and not letting up at all. As long as they keep scratching and clawing the Habs have a good chance to upset another top ranked team in their conference. The Bruins are ready to take the broom out and complete the sweep of the Flyers!! I didn't think this series was going to go this quick, the Flyers need to play with more heart and try to get back in this series. The Redwings were right where the Bruins are right now, they responded by coming out in Game 4 and blasting the Sharks 7-1!!! Even with that blowout win, the Redwings have a steep hole to climb out of as they are still down 2 games in this series. The Sharks now lead 3 games to 1. Vancouver is looking up at the Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago is up in the series 2 games to 1. They play tonight and the Canucks can not afford to go down 3 games to 1, the Blackhawks are doing something no team in Chicago has been known for doing in a while. That's to succeed in the Post Season, this game is a pivotal game in this series because a tie gives the momentum back to the Canucks and a win for the Blackhawks entrenches them in the driver seat. Do you still see the Penguins as the favorites now that they are in a dogfight with the Canadiens? Can the Redwings and Bruins stave off elimination?
