Hershey Bears repeat as Calder Cup champs with a 4-0 shutout over Texas in Chocolate Town. Bears take the series 4 games to 2 after being down 2-0.

Words can not express my hatred towards Hershey and the Caps organization.

Out of curiosity, why? I'm completely neutral towards the Caps, but they've built the best organization in the NHL top to bottom. Would that the Islanders had their act together a tenth as much. :(

I don't hate the Caps because of their D-III ties with Keith Aucoin and their web page content producer going to Oswego and Neumann.

However, I certainly don't love them either. Ovechkin and Crosby are almost on the same level to me now. Ovechkin just gets away with dirty hits and Crosby dives and whines.

Their fans are about the most annoying bandwagoners in the league right now too next to Pittsburgh.

I guess part of it too though is jealousy at the fact they sucked for forever and now they are reaping the benefits while my team, the Rangers, always do just enough to either get into the playoffs, or just miss them and then never get the opportunity to draft players of the caliber the Pens and Caps have now.

They have their starting goaltender locked up for the next 12 years, right?

Easy solution: make trades with the Maple Leafs. Works for the B's.

The Bruins got my hopes up today by holding a press conference tomorrow for a "major announcement". The rumor is that they are naming Cam president of the team. I wish it had to do with the firing of Claude.

- To throw a rumor out into the ether, sources inside the Sharks organization and outside of San Jose proper, all have said independently of one another that the Sharks are leaning heavily towards bringing goaltender Evgeni Nabokov back. Sharks President/CEO Greg Jamison said Thursday on Chronicle Live that the team was still in the planning and evaluation phase, conducting individual meetings with players and coaches to chart a course for the future.

So, I wasn't really paying attention, are you a Sharks fan who's tired of seeing Nabokov chokov, or a fan of another team that is hopelessly praying that he'll become a UFA so they can snatch them up and have him choke for them? I'm in the latter personally. :D

Sharks fan that doesn't want the team to spend more than $3 million on goaltending for the roster, and spend the other $3 million from last year toward finding defensemen who can still skate. Since I doubt Nabokov is going to take a pay cut from 5.375 to 2.3, I am displeased with this turn of events.

John MacLean to be named new head coach of the New Jersey Devils this afternoon.
 
Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs IV: "The game puck just got Prongered"

I've read as much as I good going back as far as I could manage.
I started to read about the worst players/coaches/front office people in Leafs history, and got sidetracked reading about Harold Ballard. The man made Jeremy Jacobs look generous.

Shoot the glass?

Interesting though that the Montreal station has this before any in Nashville.
Interesting, but not really surprising.
