Bears Rule in Texas and other news

Vol. I, No. 83

The Hershey Bears have won again on the road. AHL series tied 2-2 and the teams return to Hershey on Friday.  So one road team has won tonight.  My prediction was for a split between road and home teams.

The Flyers have the edge, going into OT.  But the last time this happened, a team from NJ won in Dallas in Game Six.  It took 28 minutes of OT for the Devils to win their Cup.

How many minutes and OT periods will it take tonight?  One thing is sure. The final score will be 4-3, the most common score in hockey.

11:06PM.  The road team scores.  Chicago's drought is ended.  49 years, and the Cup goes back to the Second City.  An amazing shot by Patrick Kane put the Flyers out of their misery.  Hossa finally has got his name on a Stanley Cup.  John Madden gets his name on for a third time.

Philly was valiant and went farther than any #7 seed ought to expect. Hats off to the Flyers for an amazing playoff run.

As for clairvoyance, I will keep my day job.  Two road team wins in one evening.  The Hawks were due.

Hockey Rules.
