Scouting, ya know. :D<br /><br />I was surprised the 'Canes just rolled right over for your guys... I expected them to put up a MUCH better fight. There might be many reasons for their non-performance: injuries, "out of gas" (see: Bruins series. Sorry, Jim, as noted elsewhere.) and who knows what else. But it is what it is...<br /><br />And what it is is Last Season's Blockbuster, all over again. The outcome will be the same, no doubt. :DBuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-34447063693818448832009-05-20T15:11:24.283-04:002009-05-20T15:11:24.283-04:00Protege: The one thing I like about hockey is the ...Protege: The one thing I like about hockey is the different players from all over the world. The Pens have Russians, Canadians, French, Czechs, and many others I don't know about on just one team. And it basically applies with all the other teams in the NHL and the AHL and so on. <br /><br />It's a wonderful global sport that deserves more recognition, especially here in the United States.Michelle H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10117937124348728578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-72378642226053874562009-05-20T13:17:43.616-04:002009-05-20T13:17:43.616-04:00Aw, I know close to nothing about hockey.
