What a series!  It's a shame both teams could not win!   The Islander's goalie was spectacular.   Trotzy was classy, as always, when congratulating the Bolts. 

So, now that we are down to two teams, who are you rooting for in the finals?

**STARS** **STARS  **STARS**

I'm super excited but really nervous also.

My stomach is already doing flip flops and it's

not even game day yet.

Game time tomorrow night, I'm going to have to bring out the emergency reserve supply of almond hershey kisses.

They are buried somewhere in my freezer.

LETS GO **STARS**

Bring home Stanley.

Congrats to the Stars fans!   They won tonight!  

Next game is Monday. 

@yellowrose how much chocolate have you eaten?   LOL LOL   

@hckynut   Hope you're doing well, John.  Some local thoughts from my favorite sports writer, Brooks.

Thanks Donna,      @dmod nj 

Doing well here on the home front. 

Very interesting article on Martin and the Rangers 4th line, more specifically. Not having a clue what that &*</#$%% guy running NYC will do, who knows, the Garden may be closed till that office changes.

Don't know how hockey or round ball can schedule games at the Garden with the unknowns. And the Rangers try to grab a guy when even playing games is an unknown?

Thanks again for the Rangers info as I have no idea what is going on in the sport.

Couldn't find any chocolate kisses@dmod nj . (note to put on shopping list) 

  So I snacked on spinach/kale dip with veggies.

I discovered that gnawing on a baby carrot really helps with stress. lol

Those last 4 mins with TB's goalie pulled had me on the edge on my chair.

LETS GO **STARS**

@hckynut  I'll continue to post any news about our boys. I'm glad to hear you are doing well.   

@yellowrose  aren't you good having healthy snacks during the game!   It's all junk food for me!  I know, you're shocked. LOL  

Next game is Monday, 8:00 eastern, NBCSN. 

LET'S GO BOLTS!!

The Bolts tied it up last night.   Did you hear me cheering?  lol 

I heard @soonersis  and @yellowrose  cheering for their Stars!    

@hckynut  some local chatter about the Rangers.

Thank you Donna   @dmod nj 

Lot of info there. I am pretty good with math, but with those kind of numbers and not knowing all the details? Leaves me scratching my head. Looks for sure Hank will be gone. I was really hoping he could finish all his career with the Rangers. Reminds me of what happened to my All Time Favorite Brian Leetch. I hated what they did to him.

Take care now,
