Vancouver advances, Nashville is out. Vegas wins to force a game 7 in Dallas on Sunday at 7:30pm eastern time. Game 7 of Boston and Toronto is on Saturday @ 8pm eastern time, on ABC and ESPN+.

Toronto wins 2-1 against Boston, forces a game 7. That will be Saturday at 8pm eastern time, airing on ABC and ESPN+ Vancouver and Nashville play game 6 on Friday, along with Dallas/Vegas. Both games are on TNT.

Oilers advance, eliminate Kings. Stars win 3-2 and take a 3-2 series lead. Only one game scheduled for Thursday, Boston at Toronto, game six. Boston will advance if they win.

Seattle has fired head coach Dave Hakstol after the team failed to return to the playoffs.

So he is playing the villain? If he gets people to hate him, they will watch just to see him lose. That is the same thing Colby Covington does to sell fights. Yes!! I believe his net worth of $300M attests for the fact that he's so darn popular as the MMA bad boy. Perhaps the real reason why McGregor is so popular is that people want to see what he'll say/do next. *music* bad boys bad boys what ya gonna do? What ya gonna do when they come for you? Connor McGregor answers: "Become super famous and get 300 million dollars." What a world!

Florida defeated Tampa Bay in game five and has advanced. Dallas won game four to tie the series with Vegas, a series where the road time has won all four games.

UFC 303 is two months from the day of this posting, and tickets went on sale over the weekend. If you want floor seats it will cost you up to 14k per seat. I've seen Super Bowl tickets that were cheaper, and this is not even a title fight. CRAZY. If you just want to be there and are willing to sit in the upper deck all you need is about 1,700 dollars, not including fees and taxes. So if you have an extra couple grand sitting around and don't mind the nose bleeds, you can attend this event at the "bargain prices." Personally, I would never spend that much to attend a sporting event, but there are enough people who will so the prices keep up with the demand. Also, I don't understand the obsession with Connor McGregor. Why is he so popular? Because he is a loudmouth trash talker? I am newer to the UFC so maybe I missed it?

The performance by Ovechkin in the Rangers series was pathetic. No effort, no points, and only five shots in four games. He was a team liability. It is shameful that the Capitals are keeping him around to chase a goals record instead of trying to win. Washington did not even deserve to be in the playoffs. That was embarrassing.

NY Islanders and Tampa keep their season alive with wins, Colorado takes a 3-1 series lead over Winnipeg, Vancouver does the same against Nashville. The NY Rangers advance after sweeping Washington.

Ranger win, go up 3-0. Oilers, Avs, and Canucks all win and lead 2-1. Carolina and Florida have a chance to advance on Saturday while Boston and Vegas have a chance to take a big lead in their series.

Scores from April 25: Florida 5 Tampa Bay 2 Carolina 3 NY Islanders 2 Both winners now have a commanding 3-0 series lead. Four game threes on Friday: NY Rangers at Washington Vancouver @ Nashville Winnipeg @ Colorado Edmomton @ LA Kings

Draft going about as expected so far. First four picks are 1. Caleb Williams 2. Jayden Daniels 3. Drake Maye 4. Marvin Harrison, Jr.

I saw that the Scorpions are doing a 40 year anniversary tour of their album "Love at First Sting." I have been a fan of them since I was a teenager but then I saw that the opening act for some of the shows is Ugly Kid Joe. I used to love Ugly Kid Joe back in the 90s. I put on some of their music and found this song that I have not heard in almost 30 years! Ugly Kid Joe - Milkman's Son

Impressive first two games for Vegas. Some great goaltending tonight from both teams. Other winners' tonight were Boston (leading the series 2-1) and the LA Kings (series tied at 1-1) who got the OT win against Edmonton. Two games on the schedule for Thursday. Florida @ Tampa Bay and Caolina @ NY Islanders. Both Florida and Carolina lead 2-0.

It's definitely true. We have seen some teams that had historically good regular seasons win the Presidents Trophy and lose in the first round just in recent years. Boston last year when they lost to Florida and Tampa in 2019 actually got swept in the opening round. Once the playoffs start everything that happened in the regular season doesn't matter anymore. Tonight, Colorado and Nashville evened up their series a 1-1, both getting three goal victories. The NY Rangers and Florida Panthers are up 2-0 in their series after wins on Tuesday night, both one goal games.

Vegas and Edmonton win to take 1-0 leads. Toronto wins in Boston to tie that series 1-1, and Carolina has a wild comeback against the NY Islanders to take a 2-0 lead in the series, scoring five unanswered goals, four in the third period, and scoring two goals in a span of nine seconds. A monumental failure by the Islanders who are now in serious trouble. I don't see them coming back from this. It is a devastating loss. Then after the game the Hurricanes account on X was trolling the Islands for the loss. The NY Islanders were 81-0 in their playoff history when obtaining a three-goal lead. They are now 81-1. WOW. Just wow. PLAYOFF HOCKEY IS BACK!!!!

GO KNIGHTS!! I missed one. Kings and Oilers series also starts on Monday night. Two other games tonight, the NY Islanders lead Carolina 3-0, and Boston is tied with Toronto at 2, both in the second period of their second game.

If you want some older fights to look up : look up Shogun vs Dan Henderson. They had a previous one that was absolutely amazing Thanks.

Happy Birthday

Craziest game so far was between Colorado and Winnipeg. Tied at three after the first period and the Jets won 7-6. That is a tight matchup and should be a very close series. Other game one winners were NY Rangers, Florida, Boston, Carolina, and Vancouver. Vegas Dallas series is the last one to start with game one Monday night.
