    That's a goal for the Preds

    Thought it was an incredible save at first for Murray

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Wednesday, actually. I wish there was an NBA Finals game on tonight.

    I bet Adam Silver, David Sturn, Stu Jackson and Kiki Vandeweghe are watching.

    Haha...Great by both. Barkley crashed the Gretzky press conference and asked who his favorite black athlete is, and Gretzky, without hesitation says Grant Fuhr....who was his goalie in Edmonton

    Those saves by Rinne were ridiculous. How did the puck stay out of the net?

    Barkley loves the uncertainty of hockey. For those not aware, or more likely not caring, Nashville was an 8 seed. Actualky 16 seed. Worst team into the playoffs.

    Barkley even more passionate when talking hockey.

    Honest question to those lurking...if anyone. Are fans more passionate, and if so, why?

    This is true, but when you say it's a 50-win team against a 41-win team you can really tell that there is parity in hockey.

    To expand on my answer to your previous question, I think sports fans are pretty similar across the board.

    That's it. Empty netter from Nashville.

    Ironically, if Pittsburgh had moved to Portland a few years ago, Nashville probably would be in the East, and this still may have been the finals.
