I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade but...

...am I the only person out there who feels completely underwhelmed by the playoffs? I'm sitting here waiting for the puck to drop at the Caps/Rags game and I'm ready to fall asleep. I mean, we're not talking Devils/Whalercanes here. We're talking Caps and Rags. We're talking Ovie and Avery here. I shouldn't be bored out of my mind. But I'm really not any more or any less excited by this game than I would be about a regular season game. I can't honestly say that the prospect of the Habs/Bruins bloodbath has me anymore interested (for the records, my idea of being interested is thinking about it nonstop for at least 24 hours prior to the event).

Is there something wrong with me? Am I way more tired than I thought I was or am I just plain hockeyed out at this point? I feel guilty for not being more interested. I feel like I should be interested even if my team's chances look about as good as me landing a Blackberry in the next week.

I dunno. I'm not going all doomsday or anything but I'm jutst not very interested right now....

Eh, maybe I'm just a lot more tired than I thought so I should just stuff it and go stick my Milan Lucic voodoo doll's hair on.... the guy is still bald for crying out loud....x_X

I actually feel the same. I think that's normal, cosidering the expectations are pretty low. I mean wherever you look, everyone is predicting AT BEST a six games series loss. At ths point, predicting that the bruins will win in 7 games almost looks like a delusional prediction.
At least, the habs won't feel too much pressure. I'm not saying they will beat the odds, but I still have some hopes they can make this an interesting series. And then, hey you never know...

I'm really only looking forward to the Habs playing. But I'm a little biased. I will watch the Flyers because I have to, but I won't enjoy it.

Grrreg - Yeah. This city has gone back to depressed mode... Boo... I will not be depressed though! I may be bored but I will be happy and bored!

Kristin - the Flyers made me sad tonight.... And that's saying a lot... =p
