Agree with everything.

I hate Maurice from his days in Hartford. The old Whalers brass LOVED him even after he made puzzling move after puzzling move. Probably had more to do with him being young back then and everyone is so desperate to find the next up-and-coming young guy in professional sports...no matter how mediocre that guy actually is. He's a decent coach, don't get me wrong. I'm just irrationally holding an old Whaler fan grudge against him.

CBJ does have a nice home ice atmosphere in the playoffs and it's a good test for TB if they have any deep run aspirations like everyone thinks they do. I admit that I thought TB would sweep rather easily so I will enjoy seeing how the Bolts respond. I think they'll be ready to play closer to 60 mins tonight.

The Pens had some spurts of good pressure the other night. I do get nervous about their D when teams hound aggressive forecheck styles like the Isles did the other night. Seem a little too prone to turnovers whenever I get to watch them. That said, I think the Isles D is in the same boat: prone to bad turnovers under pressure. I also think the Pens will even the series tonight.
