Yeah the first four but then you can't forget how well Wellwood and Johnson have played! Made the difference in the first round. Raymond is getting better and better each game and any team would love to have Rypien in on the roster.

Any Oiler fans wanna talk about the Rypien vs. Stortini fight? I don't think Zach knew Rypien used to be a boxer He definitely didn't know to watch out for the lefts!

I think his dad was the boxer,but rypien was trained by him

Ok yeah...I just know he can box and most other guys underestimate him cause of his size.

All I know is Detroit got ripped big time.

Oh well.

Must say the Canucks were a different team last night. Like Cherry said, they have been at home to long. Just need to get away and go out together for a couple of pops.

Yup the lay off didn't help. I was in Yaletown (area of the city) during that break and Mattias Ohlund was sitting outside Starbucks in the sun just relaxing with his bike. Not that it's a bad thing but right in the middle of the playoffs mid afternoon, not exactly normal for the guys to be just chillin'.

They really have been home for way too long. Needed to get out of the city and focus on hockey. All the pressure is on the young Hawks now. Going to be interesting to see how they can respond. So far they have been outscored 6-1 in first periods this series.

Well that sucks. Great game for 57.5 min. then loose it. Hope they can recover from that loss.

On another note. Yay Detroit.
