I have said it before and I will say it again, the NHL Playoffs are the best playoffs in professional sports. If you want to see grown men giving it everything they have night in and night out then you watch. The effort these guys give is far and above that of the NBA and no matter what the seedings are every team has a chance to win and every game is close. Sure the NBA has some great overtime thrillers and great performances, but the NHL has hard hitting, close games that you just don't get in any other sport. If you haven't been paying attention, you better start. You're missing one hell of a first round. Between the Canadiens and Senators having a blood bath and the Islanders and Penguins scoring like crazy these have been my favorite playoffs to watch to date. I don't even have to have anything emotionally invested into the games and they're still awesome. Nothing is better than playoff hockey. It cannot be touched. Oh, and they don't get a week and a half off between games 2 and 3 of every series.
