No Playoffs for the Leafs - Ptooey
I hate the New Jersey Devils. It’s like they didn’t even start playing until the last few minutes of the third period. And when they started playing, they were good. It’s like they’d decided to let the Islanders win, and then in the third period changed their minds. Screw you, Lou Lamoriello and Martin Brodeur. I don’t care that the Leafs should’ve been responsible for their own fate, I wanted the Devils to at least try to win today. Like, try the WHOLE game, not just the third period and OT. Of course, the Leafs sucked a whole lot this season. They had a whole boatload of injuries, but they sucked during some big chunks of games this season.
I’ll root for the Penguins to win the Stanley Cup. I’ll root for the Devils to be humiliated by Tampa Bay. And I’ll now devote most of my fan efforts toward the Dodgers...and my fantasy baseball team.

I think you should root for the Thrashers to win the cup. Y’know, your pals Helly, Bo, Alan & Nancy’s hometown team.

Thank you thank you thank you - I thought I was the only one who noticed that the Devils didn’t do JACK SHIT until there were like 4 minutes left. Geesh. I’d rather root for the Islanders now that the Leafs are out on account of the piss poor performance of the Devils in that game.

PS - did you have a coronary when they scored with 0.9 seconds left though? I was FREAKING out in my kitchen. My poor family.

Canucks?
Are you forgetting about your little west coast friend?

Helly, I can root for the Thrashers to win this series for sure. That’s a start, no?
Chickie, omigawd, I thought once that goal counted, we’d for sure be in the playoffs. There was no way the Devils could lose. No way! Crap. They found a way.
Jess, I can also root for the Canucks to win their series, especially since Dany Sabourin played on our Las Vegas ECHL team and we actually saw him play.
But you guys, I like the Penguins. I like the kids - Sidney Crosby and I share a birthday. If that isn’t enough, I don’t know what is. Plus, they have Gary Roberts, who is still a Leaf to me.
