Not until every 1st round series is done

This is one of them.

There's no way to sugarcoat getting swept. The games may have been close but the series wasn't.

I'd calgary finishes things tomorrow then both teams get a long break.

Did anyone outside of BC like him when he was a Canuck?

[Machiavelli]

I wouldn't say the Jets choked.

Effectively, they lost to a superior team (in all facets, including goaltending).

However, the manner in which they lost is regrettable, with late leads in 3 of the 4 games.

They made dumb mistakes at crucial times, which you can't do against a better team.

you realize you just defined choking right

[White Out 403]

suggesting the jets choked because they blew 4 leads and were swept is stupid.

they lost to the best team in the west, and did so putting up a great fight.

So excited. No predictions from me; this is all gravy. I guess I would like the Jets to get at least 1 home win out of this. GO JETS!

This is disappointing. No lies. But a choke job? Nope.

Provided that the Flames make it to the next round, I'm having a hard time seeing a scenario where they make it to the conference finals.

Please tell me I'm wrong.

Hate to be a dick, but: Losers.

empty net goal ... thanks Pavelec.

Let's get there before we start crying about it, k?

[White Out 403]

God I hope the Flames beat Anaheim or at least mess up Kessler
