If the crowd being that loud in a Game 1 is any indication of how the fans are gonna be this series, wooo boy.
Still going with Sharks in 7. This is going to 7.

Few things I noticed tonight:
-first really bad game I've seen from Polak these playoffs. He seemed to barely be physically engaged the whole game which is like....the thing he's supposed to do?
-Couture line wasn't very good. Marleau especially looked slow out there.
-1st and 4th lines were really good.
-Jones let in a really bad goal but otherwise was really solid.
-Elliot made some great saves but also looks really leaky.
Not super worried going forward. Blues barely took that one and got some luck along the way. If we can clean up our defensive zone play, and hopefully get Nieto back, we'll be good.

I think this Blues and Sharks series could be a long one.
It's at least going to 4, I'll tell ya that.

Just got back from watching the game at the Shark Tank. Great presentation and great crowd. It was a lot of fun despite the loss. They did the full presentation like a normal game with all the music and everything. Hearing the crowd erupt when we scored and hearing our goal music was great. It was surprisingly really loud despite not being completely full. It was loud enough to make my daughter want to leave =)

The end of the Western Conference Final will be bittersweet, as I've always kind of liked the Sharks and the Blues. I'm cheering for/expecting the Blues to win, but I almost feel bad for that. Reimer is on the Sharks, and they've been so close before, plus have a lot of really good and classy players.
I'll be fine with either one moving on. St. Louis feels more deserving though, because of its talent, and I like how classy they were getting donations for Fort Mac and everything. Plus their Canada video.
I hope one of them will win the Cup.

No Stamkos tonight. Looks likely that Vasilevski will start. High possibility Stralman returns.

As long as the Pens don't win the cup I do not give a shit who does.
If the Pens win the Cup though.. I will die
Every Flyers fan in here just got triggered. I'm okay with it.

Penguins fans need a graphic on the scoreboard to know when to chant, or clap, or anything really.
I oughtta pop Jhonny for posting that hideous picture.

So, the TV ratings for a Tampa-St Louis final would just have to be the worst in history for a SCF, wouldn't it?

I would say either Bolts-Flames, Canes-Oilers or Ducks-Sens for the U.S., but overall those I believed were carried by Canadian ratings.

This is good:
Good Stuff
As my two teams it would have at least one viewer.
I feel like it's gotta be an owner thing
