Marc-Andre Fleury chokes again. BJ's average 4 goals a game in a sweep.

But teh VOKOUN is back! So maybe that 4 goals a game will dip to 3.75 when all is said and done.

Hard to root against the Blues V2 Colombus team.

I'd like to see Columbus make it out of the east, for JD and Jarmo. It won't happen, but it would be nice.

Pitt in 5? I dont know if the BJs have enough to compete with the Pens, unless the Pens take them for granted.

Man, when Columbus was up 3-1, I thought they had Game 1 in the bag. They gave up back to back goals in a short span and let the game trickle down their leg. Oh well, I still see enough that I could see them pull off the upset, especially if they steal home ice with a win in Game 2.

Pitt is not very deep on the blue line and cbj plays a pretty tough style. This might be a long series-longer than Pitt wants or expected.

Since they're no longer in our division I can say it. I'm really happy that Columbus got their first postseason win. That's pretty cool.

It's unlikely, but I'd like to meet Columbus in the finals.

It would be a soccer circle showdown for the ages!

Columbus is leading 2-0 after 1 period... I know it's only game 3 and it's only the 1st intermission, but that would be something if Pitt got bounced by the BJ's. Marc Andre Fleury IS just that bad, after all.

It's like the hockey gods gave him everything to make that last second save to secure the Cup against the Wings, and then they took it away and made him suck forever.

What an epic meltdown by the BJ's. I truly kinda feel bad for them. I had the Blues game on, was watching, BJ's were up 3-1. Blues go to intermission, few minutes later and I switch back, BAM 4-3 Pens. "Holy crap!" That building was ROCKING too. WAY louder than the United Center, which is saying something. I hope the Jackets win, I truly do. Their franchise needs it badly.

That was a really bad goal Fleury let in with 25 seconds left in regulation. The Penguins have a juggernaut when it comes to offensive weapons but their biggest weakness is goaltending. And Fleury has a big contract so he's not going anywhere it appears anytime soon.

I'm going to be a cocky fan here, but I can't help but feel like the Blues and the 'old' Central division helped toughen the BJ's up for a run at one of the East's 'best' teams.
