Karma is a bitch hey? Have a nice summer, (F)lames!

Stats up to game 5: (Wings vs Flames)
Home team: 5-0
Team scoring first: 5-0
Game 6 tonight: The home team (Flames) scored 1st, but did not win! Imagine that; a buck in the trend!

Could be due to a thing called karma biting them in the ass? (If scoring 1st AT HOME and then losing in overtime on a goal scored by one Johan Franzen, the guy who was the victim in McLennan's slasher happy 18 seconds in game 5 which resulted in his suspension and fines for the team, can be called "karma".)
Be it karma or not, the Flames lost in 6 games to the mighty Red Wings and all is right with the hockey world (for now).

With one series yet to be determined, I have a 6-1 (W-L) predicting rate so far. Go me!

If the Stars win tomorrow night, the 2nd round in the wild West will be Wings-Stars and Sharks-Ducks. If the Canucks win, it will be Wings-Sharks and Ducks-Canucks.
Either way, it should make for some great hockey.

Maybe some the Flames will join the gang heading to Russia? If not, see all you suckers next season for another round in the ongoing Battle of Alberta.

I think my prediction record is 6-1 too. Something like that. Not too shabby. Hopefully both of ours will go to 7-1, hey? ;)

Sadly, my prediction rate goes 6-2, but I did call the Nucks-Stars series to go 7 games, so that has to count for something.
Right?
