On to Round 2

Pens Shake Hands with Rangers (from our seats)

Well, that was easy. Really almost too easy. The Rangers King Henrik (the Rangers' goalie) was below average-especially for him. But, the Penguins were overwhelming. Really, the Pens played 6 bad minutes of hockey in 5 games. The rest of the series was all Penguins with just exceptions.

Bring on the Capitals! This will be a little bit more fun than normal for us since or son Randy lives 3 blocks from the Verizon Center where the Caps play their home games.

Pretty Grey on April 24 at Game 5

The Capitals are very good and should be favored. But, Pittsburgh has played them well the last several games. It should be really entertaining.

Thanks to your support, we stand in FIRST PLACE after round 1 of the Beard-A-Thon. $1,350 for the Lemieux Foundation (from all of you) so far. Molly and I will donate $1,350 to the Children's Home of Pittsburgh too to match your generosity.

Remember, we donate any prize we win to South Hills YMCA Swim Team (except the free hair cuts that is) so the team can raffle off the prize. If we keep it up, we'll be able to donate one of the fantastic prizes we receive from finishing in the top 3.

Thanks again everyone. We'll be back with more after the next series!
