Almost forgot that the second round starts tonight. We can’t do another contest with only four series in play … too much bookkeeping, especially since ya boys are going to have me running around. I’m still interested to see your picks. Here are mine: EASTERN: Bruins over Rangers in 7…. Read More →
You guys who’ve been around since the GAG Line, or earlier, must be feeling pretty cool today, looking at the first Rangers-Bruins playoff series in 40 years. I know I do. I will say this, too, and I kinda touched on it when we were discussing good and bad matchups…. Read More →
