Because that's the game.

You may be down, but you aren't out.

You play to win.

I didn't see the game, but it sounds like the 'Nucks stunk it up pretty bad. I hate to admit it, but I would love to see a #7-seeded team advance to meet the #8-seeded team . . .

Playoffs hockey rules!!

By the way, Ken, 60% of the Wild team is Canadian.
28% is non-North American (Europe and S. Korea).

And a whopping 12% of the team (a whole three players) is American.

You sure showed those Canadians . . . :rolleyes:

Have a little more respect for Canadians (especially Fernandez and Roloson). They might just win the series for you . . .
