Chicago are still in the playoffs after winning the last 2 games 7-2 and 5-0.The pressure is now on Vancouver and Luongo and if the Hawks can score 1st on sunday I can see a game 7 coming up.

Amazing game last night between Chicago and Vancouver, really hoped Chicago could pull it off

I thought Chicago was going to pull it off when they scored to take it into OT but it wasn't to be

The 1st round is over and I predicted 7 out of the 8 teams that won.Here are the 2nd round games with my predictions



East

Washington/Tampa(Was win in 6)

Boston/Philly(Boston win in 7)



West

Vancouver/Nashville(Van win in 5)

Detroit/San Jose(Det win in 6)

Washington are out after losing in 4 games to Tampa and Detroit and Philly could soon follow as both are 3-0 down in their series.

Second round of the playoffs finished last night with San Jose beating Detroit in game7.The conference finals start on saturday with Boston/Tampa in the east and San Jose /Vancouver in the west.I'm going for a Boston /Vancouver final.

Saw the sad news this morning!!! The guy was only 28.



He seemed a real genuine guy to and set up his charity 'Boogaard Booguardians' that looked after kids and families from the armed forces and hosted them at Rangers games. Hell of an old school style enforcer too.



R.I.P

Medical examiner has released the cause of death as accidental due to a mixture of alcohol and painkillers.

It's going to be Boston/Vancouver in this years final.I'm hoping for a Boston win but I think Vancouver will win the cup in 6 games.

Lets Go Bruins

Canada has got a new NHL team with news that the Atlanta Thrashers have new owners and they're moving the team to Winnipeg.



It's probably too late for next season but there's no way a Winnipeg team will keep playing in the East so in 2012 they'll move to the West with a team going the other way.Early favourites to go to the East are Detroit but that would split up the Wings/Blackhawks rivalry.I'd move Columbus as they're still a young franchise and they could build up a rivalry with Pittsburgh as Ohio's NFL teams don't like the Steelers.

Vancouver win game one of the final 1-0 with the goal scored just 19 seconds from the end of the 3rd period.
