GAME ON!

Tonight is game one for our beloved Bruins. Tim Thomas will get the nod in net (I think I would have gone with Hannu, give him a chance to win the #1 spot and make Thomas fight for it. Thomas plays better when faced with the fact that each game may be his last as a starter)

We have high hopes as noted, we should make the playoffs, but let's not forget that we where ranked 24th in offense last season and we did not do much to correct that. Yes we got Savard but he is a set up man and if Muzz does not get out of his 05-06 funk we could be in trouble. Kessel could add a nice sciring punch, but remember Jumbo Joe had less than ten points during his first season and many people had him labled as a flop (If your one of them please refer to WHO WON THE MVP AND SCORING TITLE LAST SEASON, Then place your head on the rim of your toilet slamm the lid three times and FLUSH!)

Here are my picks for the Western Conference:

1. Anahiem
2. San Joe -se(not a typo)
3. Dallas
4. Calgary
5. Detroit
6. Edmonton
7. Minnesota
8. Vancouver

I don't plan on doing any cup winners until at least the all star break, but my odds on favorite is Anahiem. and for Joe's sake San Jose is a close second.
