Phoenix wins Best of 7 Western Conference Semifinal 4-3.

[Kings GM]

Good job Parker, good luck for the rest of the series.

[GoJetsGo]

Los Angeles' early two goal cushion isn't quite enough to win game 7 at Glendale. Doan posts the equalizer followed by Tikhonov's eventual game winner. Phoenix repels a late surge by the Kings and buries the empty netter. The 'Yotes move on to meet Calgary, starting on the road this round.

It's certainly disappointing to see LA knocked off after a valiant effort. Hugo's squad was decimated with injuries for the majority of the season, yet managed to defeat the defending champion Sharks and give another former champion a legitimate scare.

On to the Conference Finals!

[Parker]

Thanks for a great series, Hugo. Best of luck next season.

[Virtual Jarmo]

What a war. Wish we could have watched that series in real life. Great stuff.

Kudos to Hugo for getting where he did with so many key injuries all season long. That's one of the more impressive feats in EHEC this season.

[Commish Bub(NYR)]

Great series, guys.

Man, I want these playoffs over so we can get to the draft and on with next season. SUCKS being out of the playoffs.

[Virtual Jarmo]

Conference finals in NHL and AHL will begin on Thursday. I'll fix the file tomorrow.

Regarding the draft class, I got a jury duty summons for next week. If I have to go, I'll have time to work on the draft class while sitting around waiting to see if I get selected to a jury. If not, I'll definitely try to make room for it next week.

[Commish Bub(NYR)]

Jury duty + working on draftees.

Not. Envious.

[Virtual Jarmo]

Jury duty + working on draftees.

Not. Envious.

Yeah. Sucks.

I also need to get going on arbitrations and all of that shit.

I need a deputy Commissioner.

[SharksGM]

I'm cheering for OKC to win the Stanley Cup.

[Parker]

PRO CNT would be a great vanity plate for a high-class hoor.
