I am usually not big on hockey, but this matchup right here is something I may have actually sit down and watch. This is being compared to Magic and Bird type series [although these two play diff. positions]. You have to of the best hockey stars going at it. They both have contrasting styles but are great at what they do. The regular season head to head was quite a show. This season, the Capitols have won the series but the Penguins won the last game on a shootout. They have a certain respect for each other off the ice, but during the game is another story. The first game is today @ 1 on NBC. This is the first time they have met in the post-season. I am hoping that this goes into 7 games, kind of like the Bulls|Celtics series. Overtime that causes shootouts between the two will cause more drama. Lets just hope that this series lives up to it's hype.
