After a protracted absence, the Scores and Standings are back. My mandatory grieving period is over, and now I can say Go Penguins (ugh).
D-man (Capt. Sparrow): 102 (101)
Datsyuk (Det) W=1
Hossa, (Pit)
Stoner: 101 (99)
Zetterberg (Det) A,W=2
Malkin (Pit)
Fleury (Pit)
Go Wings: 73 (72)
Gonchar (Pit)
Hasek (Det) W=1
Michael Corleone: 71 (68)
Lidstrom (Det) A,A,W=3
Kovalev Jr. (Habsfan1993): 71 (68)
Crosby (Pit)
Rafalski (Det) G,W=3
So the conference finals begin, and I'm trying to find a reason to care. Other than seeing the Phbblblblthlyers get embarassed, I don't care who wins the Cup.
Pittsburgh - Philadelphia
Detroit 1 - Dallas 0
Bride of Kovalev (making some mean leftovers): 71
Whitney (Pit)

What the hell happened to the Stars? Where did all that momentum go? Detroit absolutely made them look silly last night. I have a feeling these are going to be two EXTREMELY boring series. The cup finals will be a shootout between Detroit and Pittsburgh, with no defense, exactly the way hockey is NOT supposed to be played...
Here's where Dallas went:
Marty Turco now 0-8-1 in Hockeytown.
Dallas looked absolutely confusesd against the Wings power play all night. They've played the same style of PP for years now, and it was like the Stars had never seen the "Screen the Goalie, Slap Shot" trick. Really hung Turco out to dry.
You are definitely right about them hanging Turco out to dry. Where was the guy cross-checking the Detroit player who had his ass in Turco's face? Dallas was letting Detroit ride Turco like a slut a prom. And instead of cutting back in like George McFly and shoving the Wings to the floor, the Stars politely excused themselves from defending the honor of their goalie. Slackers.
