How could I not pick Toews or Kane? Good thing I fired my GM already. I need a Calgary comeback over Anaheim, Johnny Hockey to light up Chicago, and Stamkos to light it up the rest of the way.

Boy, isn't that the truth? That sequence with Hossa was ridiculous.

Stayed up late for that scoop, eh brianvf? ?

Makes sense that they were being scalped for $250 a pop outside the arena - lots of red and white in that building last night.

I think that New England's punishment should be to replay the last 30 seconds or so of the Super Bowl. Let's see if Pete Carroll could screw up the play-calling again.

Before tonight's game, Koivu was a -12 against Chicago in the last three playoff series'. Zach Parise was a -11. Just sayin'...

Home run disallowed. George Brett ejected from game.

And I miss Montreal's 6th goal while breaking up a brother fight. 0-8 on seeing actual goals scored. Turning the TV off now.

And the kid walks directly in front of the TV on Tampa's 2nd goal, blocking my view. Unbelievable.

I'd be impressed if they got to game 5.

Somehow, I have managed to walk away from the TV or otherwise have my head turned for all 6 goals that have been scored thus far.

Sieve-elesky replaced Bishop after the 3rd goal - no change in results.

Yup! And make sure you spend every nickel too so you can complain how and why you need even MORE money next legislative session.

"That far into the future" is only two seasons away. The Wild have enough problems on their team right now starting with Vanek. Do they REALLY want to take on Phil Kessel too?

Your ND taxpayer dollars hard at work.

Global Hawks? Green Pride? Yes, please, let's waste some time and $$$ looking into those names. Get the consultant on the phone! Ka-ching!

Well, I couldn't care less about how little you care.

The Wild had no problem giving up a draft pick for a guy who won't be around next season (Chris Stewart), why wouldn't Fletcher try to pick up a former Gopher?

So it's not "the University of North Dakota Force," but actually "the University of North Dakota The Force" instead? I think I just shipped my pants. Dumbest. Nickname. Selection. Ever.

"Beyond a reasonable doubt" probably doesn't apply in the NFL courtroom. What's next, poor Tom Brady claiming he was being blackmailed by the ballboy? If Tom didn't pony up some autographs and nakey-nakey pictures of Gisele, he was going to get "rugby" balls on the field?

So you saw the play I was referring to? What was your take on it?

Tampering with equipment in exchange for signed shoes and footballs? Sounds like a story to me.

Did anyone catch Around the Horn yesterday when Jackie MacMullan was talking about this and asked why no one questioned the Ravens for playing with inflated balls? She almost chuckled out loud at her comment.

I wish I could remember what player it was who jumped over Bishop's outstretched arm (laying on the ice as he made a save) with one skate but made sure to rake his back foot right across Bishop's arm. Didn't bother to re-wind it but initial glance sure looked intentional.
