Did not get to see the game, unfortunately, because I was at the Ducks game. It sounded like the Wings were totally dominant. A lot of these young kids of Pittsburgh have been calm cool and collected during the past three series, but in this instance, I guess the youth and exuberance was not the best thing for these guys.

Maybe tonight, a little desperation would be the ingredient they need to tie up the series.

However, I have been in DUCK mode for the last few weeks. I went to the game on Saturday, and covered the game on Sunday (the article will shown below). They have had some injuries to their staff, and lost their closer Joe Valentine (AAA- Phillies). After losing the first two games against Bridgeport, the Ducks EXPLODED for 19 runs (scored one in all but one inning), for a 19-5 victory. The Ducks are tied for 3rd with Bridgeport - 6 games behind division leading Camden.

BTW - at 3PM today, say a prayer in silence for those that have been lost in serving our country in the military, and for those who are doing it today. No matter what side of the fence you may be politically (and frankly, I do not care), please give your wholeharted support to the men and women who defend our freedom.

Have a great memorial day, everyone… It is BE-A-UTIFUL! day!
