I'm hoping chicago wins the west, but I wouldnt be shocked if it went the other way.

I must say though that san jose seems to have finally found themselves in the playoffs. If they beat chicago and go to the cup, I say they take it all regardless of who shows up from the east.

I am absolutely giddy about the prospect of an Original Six team taking the Cup. The Bruins or Hawks, long without Stanley's mug, or the Canadiens, the greatest franchise of all time, finally back in the game. Their story is legendary this year. Even the Flyers would be interesting, being thirty-five years removed from glory.

And you were saying that the habs would lose earlier. heart says habs in 7, brain is yelling "are you serious?". If habs take one of the games in pittsburgh I have full confidence they can take the series. They keep playing like they are, like they want it more then the other guys and they'll be fine. Whoever wants it more usually takes it in the playoffs.

always listen to your heart...

they can't because crosby/malkin/fleury sucks, just like ovechkin and semin sucked last round

looks like i was right again (Y)

The comeback of the Canadiens and the Flyers is nothing short of impressive. For us, it's as if we won the cup in Montreal. I rarely use my car horn, so finally I did :D

I won't lie, I'm as shocked as the Pens fans, because on paper they have a more solid and experienced team. What I think Habs brought is heart, and seeing Halak try his hardest pushed the rest of the team to not let him down by putting the puck in their nets. The result is this, being in the conference finals hasn't happen since 1993 and we won our last Cup that year.

In people's minds here, we will be in the finals. I sure hope so, and whether it's the Flyers or Bruins, it will be an intense series!

said that about washington, pittsburgh... bring it on

I've had Hawks taking cup since January, so I'm still gonna go with them if it's a Habs/Hawks showdown. Though, they'll have to find someway to get past Halak, who is a ****in beast and definitely Playoff MVP.

As to Washington, everyone says it and it's true. Built for regular season, but not playoffs.

And always thought Pitts was overrated just because they got Sid.

To: Boston

Worst collapse in NHL history. Yes, on two previous occasions teams have rebounded from trailing 3-0 in a playoff series to win four straight games. But Boston also had a 3-0 lead in Game 7 only to lose the game (and the series) 4 to 3.

All that being said, I would have taken Boston to win the series and I would have preferred them to win but, no, that just wasn't in the cards.

Doesn't matter who they have, you hear about Pit you are only going to hear about Sid. Nothing against the team really. Just against all the talk and chit-chat about Pens being the greatest team ever in exists and will dominate the league because of Sid. I know they have other players, and I know they won the Cup last year, but honestly. How often do you hear about anyone else (other than in-game and even then) w/o Sid being mentioned. Annoyed is a great way to describe it.

What I meant by overrated is I think people give them way to much credit, simply due to Sid being on there team. They are a good team and for the past couple of years have been cup contenders (and they did win), but if Sid wasn't with them, we wouldn't hear so much about 'em and in that case we would hear about w/e team had Sid.

    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE

      This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

      They used AI based TOOLS to convert the JavaScript engine (the main rendering engine is still C++) and it was not fully automated but was human reviewed. Other subsystems will be looked into to also be converted to Rust in the future. I have no problem with any of that.

      Why not just bring back Outlook Express at this point? It did everything I needed as a home email app.

      No we just do it manually, our contact methods are calls, chats and e-mails. Whoever is doing the e-mail task for the day, deals with the e-mail, logs the appropriate ticket, adds the reference to the source e-mail and then files it in the appropriate folder. At least that's how it's supposed to work
