All Playoff Talk... All the Time... 2012 Edition

Even though Phoenix and St Louis aren't very exciting to watch, it's nice to see some different teams in the mix. Hopefully LA can get past the Canucks, and we'll have a West final four of St Louis, Nashville, Phoenix, and LA.

But they were actually down 0-3. Those comebacks are far, far fewer. Once every 35 years and we already had one in this decade.

Elimination watch tonight: the Flyers will want to finish off the Penguins and they'll have plenty of incentive, following an embarrassing loss; they'll want to rub it in the Penguin's beaks in front of the Penguins fans. Meanwhile the Predators will be looking to eliminate Detroit at home.

Dear god! NHL will not be happy

I'm rooting either way for LA in the West. Or whoever....anyone but Phoenix.

Oops, sorry, wrong series.

Fleury is owning Dung right now

Preds advance. Good for them. I like this installment of the Predators.

I like what they've done for their team. that was lucky of them to have Radulov come back. they're my pick to make the finals in the west now.

I was surprised to find out it was the second time they've moved past the 1st round, my memory must be failing me with old age. I thought it was their first.

25 games for Torres!

25 games for Torres, $2500 for Weber.

Yep, Shanny's a model of consistency on this stuff.

I think he took into account his history, but yeah...not sure what to say.

25 games is a joke. That's awful, that hit is being overblown so much

Have to agree.

At first, I liked the transparency of the videos that Shanny put together (despite his inability to read off a prompter without sounding like he's reading off a prompter). He has no idea what he's doing, though. There's absolutely no consistency.

Transparency: check
Consistency:

Torres is not a Norris or any other trophy finalist and he is a repeat offender. Multiply by 5.
