So...

Blues fans, are we rooting for the Penguins? (I am…) Or is that a dumb freakin’ question?

Nope

Still going for the meteor.

Barret Jackman is my hero.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.

the meteor was eliminated along with Chicago in the conference finals.

Let's go Blues!!!

I really like the Pens.

I’m not afraid to admit it. They were my adoptive playoff team after the Blues were eliminated so yeah..kick some Det ass.

Ditto.

They’re always my EC team in the playoffs, and before the Thrashers wandered along were my favorite EC team since I was a little kid.

I’m not a huge Sid fan although I think he’s an unreal player, but I like the rest of their squad and have been EXTREMELY impressed with them this post-season.

Wiki question?

According to Peter Zezel’s Wiki entry, he really got the screws put to him by Brian Burke when he was the GM there. Does anybody remember this?

Damn, I just wish I could play PIANO like that . . .

much less the drums.

Oh, and (begrudgingly) go Penguins.

It’ll have to be the Pens. Will Crosby touching the trophy make a difference? I’ve always thought the hands off superstition was one of the silliest.
Gotta hand it to Crosby for being only the fourth player with the balls to pick it up.
