After tonight's win over St. Louis, their first over a Western Conference team this year, the Penguins have truly sent a message to the league that they mean business in pursuit of their second straight Cup. Even though the Rangers lost last night I still think these two teams will meet for the Eastern title. I couldn't imagine the amazing play of rookie Michael Del Zotto. Scoring points everygame, plus Marian Gaborik just does what he does. As a Minnesota Wild fan it is crushing to see how well he is playing. He never played an entire season with us because he would always get hurt. Great player.

With both LCS at 3-1 it just occurred to me how lackluster the MLB playoffs are this year and how we possibly could be heading into another ridiculously horrible World Series. A series hasn't gone to even 6 games since 2003.
