I think those Mint Julep jerseys contributed to it.

After reading your comment I started singing "Sink The Bismark" in my mind. Dallas went down like the Hood lol.

Why keep watching? So I can say to myself: yeah, we keep at it-maybe we can catch Colorado in a couple years?

The power of positivity!

For real, the Blues just had a great season.
Have a bunch of young great kids, and are set up to have a great team for 10+ years.
You guys need to chill out.

Which part was the great season: the 82 games that didn't count, or the six that did?

Well you can't go 0-82 and still make the playoffs...

I agree, I miss the 80s, when you could win maybe 20 games and still make it in...

Since the Blues are out I say take the Cup back to Canada...Go Habs!!!

I'm good with that. After that, I would probably go with Boston.

I gotta go with Minesota, just because of my fellow swiss Nino Niederreiter!


So let's go Wild! :D

So that would either be Minnesota, San Jose, Philly, or Columbus. Everyone else that is left has already won it recently so I can't support those teams.

So basically, if MN beats the Hawks, you will be rooting for them the rest of the way?

This is easy for me, I'm a Kings fan now. They are built very much like the Blues from a personnel standpoint, and their success can be used as a blueprint for the Blues. They were also a part of the same 1967 expansion as the Blues were.

The fact that I hate the Blackhawks and Ducks enters into the equation as well. I am indifferent to the Wild, but their goaltending is so poor, I can't imagine them getting past this next round, despite the fact I will be rooting for them.

In the East, now that the Flyers are out, I really couldn't care less. I guess I'd like Boston the most, again a similar type team.

I didn't play in the forum playoff prediction contest because I didn't want to jinx the Blues, whom I would have picked to go all the way. How naive I am sometimes.

Have to say I'm pulling for entertaining hockey.

So finals should be Bruins vs anyone but the Wild.

Probably Hawks bruins kings in that order but not tremendously emotionally invested in any team.

Doubt I'll go to any of the Hawks games.

Wild
Habs
Penguins
Bruins
Rangers
Ducks
Kings
Hawks

Only 1 team left without a cup. Barf.

Wild or Habs. Everyone else can suck a fat one.

I hope Chicago wins it again, just to shove it down the Blues throats. I hope we open next season in Chicago and have to watch them raise the banner. Maybe that will be enough to piss them off and motivate them. I want them to think about what could have been.

Could it be possible that it wouldn't have mattered, because we didn't have the players we needed to go all the way? Our D is without question but the last few years scoring has been the bugbear. I think this would frustrate them more than anything. They have all the heart in the world, but they're still missing pieces, so why antagonize them? All that's going to do is have players on the line with their agent saying "Get me out of here."

I've come to this same conclusion too. If the Wild win, that 100 million they spent would be a proven investment and not a waste of money. I'm curious to see how it goes for the Wild.

I'm rooting for dmiles...

When Dmiles wins the Cup, should they also include the '...' when they engrave his name on it?
