Earth Day

Happy Earth Day to everyone!  I hope you had a chance before tonight's games to plant a tree and do your part!  Mother Earth will be very happy.

I see the bandwagon jumper discussion has sparked some interest.  I believe the two brothers have asked a friend to mediate this discussion because they cannot come to a civil conclusion on their own.  I will follow up with more details as they become available.  Everyone's opinion is still welcome and appreciated.

It's going to be a big night for a couple of teams.  The Pittsburgh Penguins could take their series with a win in game five tonight against the Ottawa Senators.  Or the Senators could force a game six with a win this evening.  Ottawa has become the most recent team to turn to goaltender changes with Pascal Leclaire starting tonight for the Senators, in place of Brian Elliott. Leclaire To Start For The Senators.  New Jersey is also in danger of falling out in the first round as they face the Flyers in game five tonight.  With two of Philly's better forwards out for at least the rest of the series, the Devils may stand a chance. Gagne & Carter Out  Both match-ups start at 7pm. 

Other match-ups this evening include Chicago at Nashville in game four.  Nashville leads that series 2-1.  Sounds like Chicago defenseman Brian Campbell is very close to returning from a broken collarbone injury received during a run-in with Alexander Ovechkin about six weeks ago. All's Quiet In Chicago   And Colorado is back in San Jose tonight for game five.  That series is tied at 2-2.

I have one new beard picture to share from the brother-in-law.  The husband is off taking his final exam for the semester.  I will take his nightly shot when he returns.  For now...
