A series two years in the making

Western Conference Semifinals
Red Wings vs. Ducks


It seems like just yesterday I was in a prone, motionless heap on the living room floor (calm down, I was clothed), feeling like the Ducks had run a train through my soul. The gutty 2007 Red Wings left everything out on the ice and it still wasn't enough. I, perhaps like many of you, have never felt as emotionally spent after a series as this one.

This series is what separates hockey from every other sport on the planet. You're literally hoping that everyone makes it out alive.

The first round comes to a close tonight, and then we'll finally devote our entire attention to Anaheim. For now: I just wrote a massive paper spanning two days of work and I need to rest the trusty fingers for a minute.

Let's go Red Vings
