We are enemies... go sharks! Good game last night, Avs were pretty dominant, they just kept letting the sharks get back in it. Sure wish we had Pavelski this series.. there is nothing better than playoff hockey! And the hurricanes are looking like a true contender for the cup, nobody saw that coming

Penguins are out, so I'm not paying very close attention. Hoping one of the western conference teams to do it or Columbus in the East. Would like to see Dallas continue to move on.

Enemies for me is reserved for the Wild and the Wings.

However there have been some epic playoff battles with the Sharks. None of them have gotten super ugly that I remember. Both teams have been pretty disciplined in this series, Thornton?s cross check to Grubauer made me a little mad though.

The Blues and Carolina are both going to be tough to knockout IMO. Dallas has put together a great run, I need to look at their draft pipeline, if they have young guns coming it would be fun to be a fan there.

...been there Scott. Konstantinov destroying Chicago in 2 OT, Yzerman destroying St Louis in triple OT. The 'Wings destroying Patrick Roy with 7 goals in game 7 of the 2002 Western Conference finals. Claude Lemieux urinating himself beneath the fists of Darren McCarty. So many good memories and bleary eyes at work the next day. San Jose and Colorado can sleep easy now that the Red Wings are no longer in their conference, the rivalries are long gone. Good luck guys!

Holland hit a few late round home runs with Datsyuk, Zetterberg and the mule to avoid the issues Colorado had once the cap was in place. Having the ageless and one of the best d-men of all time didn?t hurt either, especially since he was able to lead as Captain so well. Unfortunately with the cap it?s all about build a core, see if they can contend, win for a cup...crash and burn for picks then repeat. Hard to build dynasties that produce the rivalries.

I don?t know that we will ever have a rivalry like the Wings and Avalanche again. The best, but forgotten part is just how good the hockey played was! Those games were insane skills on display. Forsberg had a whole new level for the wings.

Getting glimpses of hope in the Duchene, Stastny, O?Reilly era wasn?t fair. Cratering after that was even worse. But with what Sakic got for those trades filling in the team I am happy!

I haven't gone to a game since Roy played.
Costs to much to take the whole family.
Need that money for tags. Lol

The rivalries are over, and so are the ratings. Can you believe there was a time ESPN broadcast hockey? I wish the NHL had a real commissioner. Holland just went to Edmonton, so now we get Yzerman back where he belongs with full control, this will be awesome (I hope).

God bless St. Patrick.

On December 2, 1995, in his 22nd game (and the team's 24th) of the 1995–96 season, Roy was in net against the Detroit Red Wings during Montreal's worst home game in franchise history, an 11–1 loss. When Mario Tremblay pulled Roy in the middle of the second period in favour of Pat Jablonski, Roy stormed past him and told Canadiens President Ronald Corey, who was sitting behind the bench, "It's my last game in Montreal."

In what would be Roy's final playoff meeting with Detroit, he was pulled after allowing six goals in Game 7 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals, a game Detroit won 7–0 to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals.

Go AVS or Sharks...

Yeah, that Statue of Liberty stuff was fantastic....when he had the puck ha. However, he could steal a game!

The dude was also nuts, talking to the goal posts etc. But when he had that look and turned it on...it was so much fun to watch.

My wife and I were watching every game of the play-offs until the Golden Knights got screwed by the refs and handed the game to the Sharks.

I'll give you the Bruins, but the Av's just might pull off the upset Wednesday night on the Sharks ice.

Go Av's
