Congratulations to the New Jersey Devils who beat Tampa Bay 3-2 this afternoon to move forward into the next round. They will now play Ottawa and Buffalo will play the New York Rangers.
Last night, Dallas shut out Vancouver again to tie the series at 3. Game 7 will be Monday night.
Jamie McLennan was suspended for 5 games for his slash on Franzen's chest last night. Jim Playfair was fined $25,000 and the Calgary Flames fined $100,000 for their part in the actions of the Calgary players. Lebda is out with a concussion because of Langkow's uppercut in the 3rd in which Lebda was penalized for "Clipping" Iginla speared, then crosschecked Schneider to the ice and was penalized, not counting his crosschecks on Zetterberg, Lidstrom and Draper all in the final minutes of play. Playfair... or Iginla.. one or the other, i forget which now was quoted as saying "That's the emotional part of the game." I totally disagree. There is no place in hockey for classless play as such put forth by the Calgary Flames in game 5. I hope the Wings teach them a lesson in front of their hordes of fans at the Saddledome this evening. 36 minutes to gametime. 6 minutes to Pregame. Go Wings. Good Luck.
