SJS eliminates Detroit

You should take some Gravol or Pepto Bismol for that upset stomach of yours. When it does finally settle, give me a call so you can come over to my place and party with the rest of us shiny happy people.

I'm with DK, I could never be that happy that the Sharks won. I'm glad that the Wings are out, but I'm not celebrating a Sharks victory.

"They were trying to get more traffic in front of me, and there was always somebody," Montreal goalie Jaroslav Halak said. "It was how they scored their goals. The first one I couldn't see. I think it went through our guy. The second one was the same thing.

"We need to do the same thing. I think we made it easy on their goalie. We had no traffic and we need to do the same thing like they did against us."

"They won fair and square," center Henrik Zetterberg said. "They were the first to four (wins). They got the job done and we didn't. You can say we were close in every game, but it doesn't matter. They were better."

Added coach Mike Babcock: "I thought we pushed hard tonight, but we didn't have enough."

"We're going to go as far as Nabby takes us," Thornton said. "We knew he'd bounce back."

Can't separate one from the other. Besides, if I had my choice, I'd pick Detroit to advance any day over the Sharks. I like being the only team from California (or any west coast team in the modern era) to win the Stanley Cup.

[rollingdux]

well that ruined my weekend.....Well there is still one more round to go before the finals so the sharks can still....you know.........
