Im going to be persecuted for saying this, but I like the new NHL. Pre-strike, who ever thought that the Top 4 seeds in a conference would be upset in the first round? Who also thought that the #8 seed would play all around better than a #1 seed?
If you don't know who I support in the NHL by now, just look at my picture.
Oh, and nobody expected anything out of the Pacers this year after the first 2 months of the season, especially after Ron Artest decided to have his brain fart.
