2. How come the St. Louis Blues have this magical gift for scoring pretty goals in the 2012 playoffs when no one else can?
3. The Shark tank exploding in cheers when their team climbs within 2 with 3 minutes left made me make this face: =/
4. I'd like to point out how miffed I am about the fact that the best goaltending matchup in the CQF round of these playoffs is Braden Holtby (22 year old rookie) vs. Tim Thomas (Defending Vezina/Conn Smythe/Stanley Cup Winner)
5. Matchup two is Henrik Lundqvist (Vezina frontrunner) vs. Craig Anderson (Who?)
6. And the other good matchup has been Jon Quick (Horrendously underrated goaltender the past few years) vs. Roberto Luongo (Horrendously overrated goaltender the past few years) or Cory Schneider (Horrendously underrated goaltender the past few years)
7. The New York Rangers from '06 to '10 have graduated 3 of their 5 NCAA draft picks to the NHL with the Kreider contract, compared to 1 of their 18 Major Junior picks.
8. Tim Thomas was the only Bruin to have his bags searched by government officials upon arrival in DC. Truly not sure how I feel about it. Part of me just finds it hilarious, the other part of me wonders if that's going a bit too far to mess with the opposing goalie.
9. That said, the layer of Obama pictures behind Thomas' net in this game was absolutely hilarious, regardless of loyalty, that's just quality chirping.
10. After Tortorella flipped out about Peter DeBoer playing games about his game time roster, he had John Scott out for the warmup chirping Zenon Konopka, and then had him out in the press box watching the game.
