2nd Intermission Live Blogging

Caveat: While impertinent to readers, I have yet to eat dinner, and I live on the East Coast. Sigh. What playoff hockey does to me. In any case, blogging might not be as frequent.

The Bozos and I agree: On the fact that the line of Schaeffer-Alfredsson-Fisher was the most effective one in the 2nd period. And for all Alfredsson scored that shorthanded goal, I'd take Mike Fisher over Alfredsson any day of the week if I'm a GM who's tasked to build a Cup winner. You need guys like Fisher to win a Cup.

Sigh: This agreeing with the Bozos thing has got to stop. I wasn't listening all that closely to the Bozos' recap of the 2nd period, but I agreed with the basic idea that the Ducks need to keep forechecking and not sit back on a lead and that Ottawa should roll out that Fisher-Alfredsson combo as much as possible. Still, that's scary. But if the 2006-07 season officially concludes tonight, I'll have a whole lot of time next year to go back to disagreeing with the Bozos.

Commercials: Seriously, could they get better commercials for the playoffs? I usually mute commercials, but blogging precludes fussing with the mute button as I usually do. Snark warning: Oh, never mind about the commercials. I just remembered the NHL has a "contract" with NBC that's made me concerned about just how much of the Cup being awarded I'll actually be able to see. Sigh.

Time to Eat. Seriously.
