Congratulations.

Rob and Scott Neidermayer (The latter of which is really rather unattractive in the adjacent picture) teamed up last night in the second period of overtime. While Rob put the HARD hit on Jannick Hansen along the boards, the puck squirted out to Scott at the point who shot towards the net - to an unsuspecting Roberto Luongo. Luongo was busy trying to get the attention of the refs - arm up in hopes of getting a penalty on the aformentioned hit - looked back with barely enough time to lower his glove as the puck cleared his pad and hit the netting just inside the left goal post.

The crowd jumped up - cheering loudly - as Luongo looked back into the net before falling to the ice, face first in defeat.. His season was over. All thanks to Neidermayer brothers.

The Anaheim Ducks have won the series 4-1 and they won't know until Monday, at the very earliest, if they'll be playing Detroit or (god forbid) San Jose.

So Congrats to the Ducks - and the Brothers of Neidermayer - for thier defeat against the Vancouver Canucks - one of my least favorite teams.
