Poll on cknw.com How should we honour Trevor Linden after winning the game last night? 25.38% Free Starbucks for life 29.01% Give him a key to the City 5.69% Get him a knighthood 12.95% Make him GM of the 'Nucks 26.94% Clone him so every female has their own Linden =my choice

Bluejaxrock: Here's the link to the YouTube. It's not much, but it's funny to hear the city explode. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mT0Qc5Ek1Gg

I have decided to tune in to the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs. I have not yet decided what team to root for. I accept bribes if you feel you need another fan in your corner.

Thanks, Karen. Here in C'bus, the city goes nuts if OSU wins/loses a big one and on campus they set fire to everything in sight. (And not being an OSU football fan, I'm never close enough to hear anything.) How do you it in the Great White North? Sounded like just a lot of yee-hawing and general merriment...I didn't hear any glass breaking or sirens or anything!

Ok, Hermi, from what I've seen, most of the sportswriters are calling for the Sharks to take it in seven, so we have to stay strong and positive. The Coyotes beat the Sharks at a particular game 8-0 . . let's hope that's the team that shows up to play Detroit.

Cindori, say it isn't so. Why are they calling the Sharks in 7? I didn't see anything during the quarters that would make me think that. I'm glad that fellow-posters from a hockey board aren't here...they'd never let me live down rooting for the Wings.

Bluejax, they are. It looks like they're banking on Thornton and Marleau, with the last-minute acquisition of Rivet helping their defense. I don't really understand it, but I've seen a bit of speculation that the Red Wings don't stand a chance when they're roughed up by the other teams? I thought they did pretty well against the Flames when they played that game . . .

Hermie, I see how easily you are bought off! Here in my territory, we are rooting for the Sharks. I give you my undying friendship, which I think is much more valueable than Cin's money. (sorry Cin!)

Yay Vancouver, I guess. I only care because another series means more dinner & game nights at my work. I was sooooooo bitter last night though, because we normally CLOSE the restaurant before the game shuttle brings everyone back, but our manager let everyone sit at tables for drinks. It was brutal. My last table was LEAVING, and then I get hit with 2.5 more hours of work, for only 45 more dollars of revenue, 15 in tips. I had already made 150, and wanted to go home!! Grrrr. Go Wings!!

I'm going with the Ducks over the Canucks. Like I said before, there are many reasons Doug MacClean is looking for a job, and one of those has to be the Federov trade...Feds for Beauchemin and Marchant. Seems like Beauchemin is a bit of a player, now. If it goes Ducks vs. Wings, I gotta go Wings. I think the Wings can take the physical game, but also bring some finesse. When they are on, they are a thing of beauty. And Chelly - my age and still incredible! Who needs Shanny, anyway? Oh yeah, the Rangers...lol

I am pulling for the Red Wings in the west and the Rangers in the east, as they are my two favorite teams these days. If they both pull it off, I will be so screwed! The final series would have me in circles chasing my tail! How do you cheer on the guy with the puck and the goalie to make the save all at the same time! It would drive me bonkers. It's one of those be careful what you wish for kind of deals.

The Red Wings have said that Holmstrom will be out for at least Game 1 due to the eye injury from Sunday night's game. Crap.

Cindori, it'll be all right. Just repeat after me...I believe...I believe...I believe. Mary-I've been there, and it's fun not having a fave team. Sometimes for me it comes down to which players I like least. As for the Ducks/Wings, it would be tough for me cause I can't stand Bertuzzi and Selanne makes me sick. lol But I'd probably stay with the Wings, in honor of Stevie Y.

Bluejax, I tried to believe, I really did . . . So San Jose scored two goals, what, 24 seconds apart? And those were the only two goals of the game. Sigh. We're hoping for a much better showing from the Wings tomorrow!
