And last night we just lost one too many.
The Vancouver Canucks are now out of the playoffs … and I am left stunned by the game. Calgary just seemed to desire it more. While I can blame a couple weak calls in the last couple minutes, Calgary just fought a little harder.
A last effort by Naslund and Cooke tied the game with 5 seconds remaining to push the game into OT. However, a faltering Flames power-play seemed to finally click and not 2 minutes into the extra frame the black rubber disc lie behind rookie goalie Alex Auld.
I am now wondering … whats next … the Leafs play tonight to decide if they move on. And my new ‘home town’ team will take on the Canadiens in round two.
I wish Calgary luck in their series against Detroit … I look forward to them in the Cup final. (Leafs vs Flames … is it possible?)

HEATHEN…it will at least be Tampa, Calgary. Though I’d prefer Tampa, and another team that shall not be mentioned but I’m not picky. Now Tampa, Toronto in the eastern finals…that would be cool.
Aw that’s so sad. I hope you still keep us in the loop, because you’re my only source of hockey information :).
