It's that time of year again my friends...The NHL Playoffs have begun. Three good games tonight and the boys from Hockeytown begin their Quest for the Cup Thursday night at the Joe.
This will be one of the first playoffs of my hockey life that will not include "The Captain," Steve Yzerman. It will be strange not seeing him out there, but it's time for the youngsters to step up and take a run at the toughest championship in all of sports: Lord Stanley's Cup.
If you've never experienced playoff hockey, this may be a good time to check it out. Like so many other professional sports, the "Salary Cap," has evened the playing field a bit. Parity is what they like to call it.
Let me just say this, if the Wings decide to make a deep run this year, I may not see you until sometime in June. Versus has hockey every night and I also have NHL Center Ice from DirecTV, so my TiVo will be working overtime.
Hopefully the chant, "LET'S GO RED WINGS!" will be heard all the way down here in hockey starved Ohio.

I'm going to have to watch some games with you. I really liked the game we watched on your video. The Blue Jackets just aren't there yet.
I hear it in Oregon
Yesss, It's here! I do love this time of year. I hope I get to watch the wings for many weeks to come.
