Phoenix showed no desire through most of our series, and we won in four games.  We are the first team to finish a series, which should give time for some of our banged up players to rest.

Sure hope Zetterburg is ready to go next round.  I have him in my playoff pool.

He should.

I don't think Phoenix has ever won a series in the playoffs.

Another thing they haven't done is complete a season without being in the red financially.

Big mistake to try these non traditional markets. Bettman blew it. Back to Wpg.

Can't wait for the JETS!!!!! Gonna cheer for 'em when they come back. Canada will have more teams in the playoffs next year if the Jets are there! Vancouver, Winnipeg, Montreal, Toronto (likely), Calgary (likely) and the Oilers ( a man can dream, a man can dream...)

The Oil sure are fun to watch though! Add yet another top pick, and you have a Pittsburgh or Chicago

And if they can find enough investors the Nordiques might even make it back eventually. Not next year, but hopefully soon.

YES! I get all giddy thinking about it.  The rivalries.  When hockey was about hockey, not money.  Not American tv contracts, or Disney, or 'growing the brand.'  Hockey doesnt belong in the desert.  It belongs here.
