Power players! In my thread no less! Garce you tha man. I spent a ton of hours trading those with the other kids on my street growing up. My PP's little blue wallet was packed fat with spares, had the soft cover album filled and was working on a second collection. Sadly, over the years my collection seems to have disappeared though. It was stored in my parents basement, to this day I don't know what became of them all but I'd kill to find them.
Game 7's coming up starting tonight I think. Hockey heaven is right.
Blackhawks -- They weren't dominated in that last game, they actually outplayed Phoenix for most of it in fact. It was one weird game, long stretches where the coyotes barely got to touch the puck, and only their goalie kept them alive. Chicago did all the dominating, all the play-making, had puck possession for most of the game, while Phoenix did simply one thing and one thing only.... scoring.
Not sure which team I'll cheer for now. I like the look of Nashville, like the vibe going on there, not an obvious hockey market but the love for their team and love for the game itself has really taken off there it seems. I like that.
I may have to back Ottawa though, assuming they win that game 7. I like the fact they've loosely recruited and at least temporarily called up Mark Stone for that one game, the kid from Winnipeg. He got an assist in that game and played quite strongly (as I knew he would, the kid is damn good).
Now to find those damn power players....
