Series Tied 2-2
TV: TSN
-Neither team has won 2 consecutive games this series.
-Flyers won last game 2-1 with their #1 goalie Steve Mason returning from injury.
-Mason stopped 41 shots in Game 4. The Rangers fired 89 shots at Ray Emery in Games 1-3.
-I don't want the Rangers to win. At all.
-All but 4 Flyers players have at least a point in this series.
-All but 5 Rangers have at least a point in this series.
-Martin St. Louis leads the Rangers with 2 goals and 5 points in 4 games. Suck on that, critics.

Blues At Blackhawks
Blackhawks Lead Series 3-2
TV: CBC
The big story here is the insane historic irony taking place:
2013 Round 1 Blues vs. Kings (defending Stanley Cup champions)
Game 1: Alex Steen scored game-winning goal in OT.
Game 2: Barret Jackman scored game-winning goal.
Game 3: Blues outshot Kings by nine, get shut out.
Game 4. Blues blew 3-2 lead late in third period, lost 4-3.
Game 5: Alex Pietrangelo scored game-tying goal (his first of the playoffs, assisted by Jaden Schwartz), Blues lost 3-2 in OT.
Game 6: Blues lost 2-1, eliminated from playoffs.
2014 Round 1 Blues vs. Blackhawks (defending Stanley Cup champions)
Game 1: Steen scored game-winning goal in OT.
Game 2: Jackman scored game-winning goal.
Game 3: Blues outshot Blackhawks by nine, get shut out.
Game 4: Blues blew 3-2 lead late in third period, lost 4-3.
Game 5: Pietrangelo scored game-tying goal (his first of the playoffs, assisted by Schwartz), Blues lost 3-2 in OT.
Game 6: ???
Gotta be the only time in NHL or any sports' history that kind of crazy shit went down. If the Blues lose 2-1, they will never hear the end of this legendary story in the making.
