Hey, siouxweet, did I mention that the 2002 Detroit team also went down 0-2 to Vancouver in the first round after losing AT HOME? They also lost game 1 of the SCF at home to the Hurricanes.

1998 Red Wings. Up 3-1 in the Western Conference semi-finals against the Dallas Stars and up 2-1 with under 2:00 left in game 5. Dallas scores with 1:25 left on the clock and Jamie Langenbrunner wins it in OT on a slap shot from center ice. Detroit would eliminate Dallas in game 6 (Osgood rebounds with a ahut-out), win the conference finals, and capture the Stanley Cup. 2002 Red Wings. Detroit loses game 5 of the Western Conference Finals at home to their nemesis, the Colorado Avalanche. Detroit would win game 6 in Denver and send Patrick Roy off into retirement with a 6-0 thumping in game 7 back in Detroit. Those moments happen - even to dynasties.

LOL!

Go Lightning go!

I'm curious as to what you think the UND legacies are of players like Greg Johnson, Zach Parise, Matt Greene, and Jonathan Toews...

I heard a rumor that Hakstol volunteers at The Humane Society euthanizing baby kitties and puppies and loves to swerve into puddles on rainy days so he can splash grannies trying to cross the street.

It certainly appears that some Sioux "fans" sure would like Hakstol to fall flat on his face in Philly, doesn't it?

I've seen better defense (from both teams) in co-rec slow-pitch softball than I did in yesterday's Red Sox/Twins game. Terrible!

Actually, the brain reacts to trauma in unusual ways - almost as a protective self-defense. It's very possible the witness cannot recall what was said.

The booth and studio guys seemed stunned that Tampa Bay kept the game within 6 goals.

Tampa Bay proving once again that going into a shell for 20:00 never works.

Andrew Shaw with a slew-foot!

Hot rumor is that the Minnesota Former Gophers, er, Wild, are going to try to sign Mike Reilly. Not surprising, I suppose...

It wasn't even a gun-totin' redneck 'Merican who put it up - that's the best part.

A number of years ago, a St Paul man placed a statue of Jesus on his property on Summit Hill overlooking the city. I can't recall how long the legal battle went on as the city passed various ordinances in order to force him to remove it. Don't remember the outcome either, but it was a mess.

Like 14 years ago.

AP's gonna be back in the fold. We'll see if he can "flick the switch" on and regain his old form. HEY OH! Too soon? Fire up the negative reputation, boys!

Next year, a limit of two players from each NHL team? Not to take anything away from Ray77, but he is a Bruins fan...

I can't imagine a nickel of that money being used for anything other than football and men's basketball.

The show was actually called "Knight Rider," but that's probably even MORE racist than "Night."

Chatted with a few locals in SW NoDak this past week - openly mocking the "Nokota" or "Charging Nokota" nickname choices. To them, the idea of plucking wild horses out of the national park and claiming they are direct descendants of horses from Sitting Bull is as ludicrous as picking up a stray cat and saying it's a descendant pet of Egyptian pharaohs. After listening to what they had to say, I am in agreement with them. Nokota or Charging Nokota - just say "no."

What did he say on Twitter?

Is this the part where siouxweet jumps in and complains about the Blackhawks and how the series is lost at 2 games to 1 because the Ducks scored 3 goals in 37 seconds?

LOL! The 2-goal rally to take the game to OT...only to hand a W to Anaheim less than 45 seconds into it.

Well, it likely already has 2 committee member votes...
