Really, I think the only truly bad move that Shanahan has made so far is not suspending Weber. It doesn't matter that Zata wasn't hurt. Weber still should've gotten booted for a game. (I also think that would've sent an early message and maybe prevented some of the subsequent incidents; perhaps not, but maybe). I don't know if that was the only bad decision he's made, but it was probably the worst. It seems like there's been more of this stuff in the playoffs this year than any time in recent memory. Every day the question is "what are the fines and suspensions from last night going to be?" I think that by not suspending Weber, Shanahan basically gave a greenlight to cheap shots left and right. Also, I hate, hate, hate the Flyers. But I really hope they finish the Pens tonight.

In soccer terms, that was a goal against the run of play, but I'll take it! You could see Hunter's fingerprints all over the team's play tonight - conservative but technically proficient, adept at minimizing mistakes and recovering quickly when they did occur, opportunistic counterattacks. If Holtby had just lunged onto the puck instead of trying to sweet it away, this would've ended 1-0 in regulation. Remarkable change in playing style - will be interesting to see if they can physically handle another such series. Not surprisingly, the opponent will be crucial.

Devils-Flyers is what I like to call "The Meteor Series."

Slightly misleading headline. Hunter didn't quit, since his contract only ran through the end of the season, which is now complete.

I'm really starting to think that the Kings have sold their collective souls to Mr. Applegate.
