When the Soviet Red Army and Wings teams toured the US to play NHL teams, my eight-year-old self rooted for them over the Rangers and the Islanders.

I look forward to the re...He he he he.... ah, yes. I look forward to the rematch if the Blues fight their way into the playoffs. Would love love love to see them hang on (heck - oust Anaheim for the 7 spot, they're only a point back) and St.L has what should be one of the easiest paths left. Dallas, Phx, and Colorado are toast - only the Blue Jackets will have motivation and Columbus' schedule shows they don't have an "easy" game left. Nashville is fighting for its life; the BlackHawks will be desparate to keep the 4th spot.... and Minnesota is never an easy game no matter where they are in the standings! <BR/><BR/>Content in my Red Wings (for now - prefer top seed but will take 2nd - San Jose has a very smooth path right now) I am now frantically rooting for the Blackhawks to hang on to that 4th spot. Scored 1st round playoff tickets. 1st set of home games. Anxious now, as if they start on the road I may be out of town at a "no you can't call in sick!" 3-day conference in San-freakin-Diego for their two home games. NOT IN MY HAPPY PLACE about that.<BR/><BR/>(logs off humming "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" with hockey-appropriate lyrics in place of Christmas ones.)Rileysdtrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-84971731397028641052009-04-03T09:09:00.000-05:002009-04-03T09:09:00.000-05:00It's seriously so much fun, isn't it?

Which reminds me of a quote from Glenn Hall, I believe: "I love everything about hockey, except for the game."<BR/><BR/>So true!rebeccahttp://rmercurio.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
