Day 1

Went according to plan, more or less. The Rangers win was an upset, but from what I hear (I only had a chance to watch the first period of the Vancouver-St. Louis game) it was a goaltending problem for the Capitals. As long as the Caps don't panic, they should be o.k. in this series.

What I saw of the Vancouver game was excellent - very entertaining hockey! Up + down the ice action, and some amazing goaltending at both ends.

Now the real important games start in Boston and Chicago.

Hey, it's great to have 5 of the (Almost) Original Six teams in the playoffs: Boston, Chicago, Detroit, New York Rangers, Montreal. For the life of me, I can't remember what the sixth team was! Montreal Maroons? New York Americans? Pittsburgh Pirates? Portland Rosebuds?

Vancouver Millionaires?
