So my boys have made it into the playoffs! Even if you're not into hockey, if you ever have the slight desire to watch, the playoff games are the games to watch. I'd have to say I'm a pretty hardcore devils fan. Ever since they won the Stanley cup a few years ago, I've been obsessed.
The first playoff game was on Thursday.. and what an amazing game it was. The devils won 5-3 and had some really awesome goals. Parise scored two and Elias, Rafalski and Gionta were responsible for the remaining three. Marty rocked in goal as usual even though Tampa Bay managed to get three goals by him. Overall the game was just so exciting.. full of penalties, fights and whatnot. Not a boring minute..
The second playoff game was on last night and unfortunately the devils took a sad loss. I have to give them credit though, because they fought up until the last minute (literally) almost making it a tie, but Holmqvist (Tampa Bay's goalie) brought on his A game last night and blocked both attempts just as time ran out. It was a close game though, 3-2. The devils still have time to come back with 5 more playoff games to go, so no worries!

The playoffs are great. There are so many games in the regular season that it gets hard to view any of them as important. The playoffs add that sense of urgency that games like football have for most of their seasons. But once you add the fast-paced nature of hockey it becomes more exciting than any other sport could be.
