In my new blog, I will follow the 4 major North American sports: basketball, baseball, hockey, and sometimes football, which is why it is 4 Sports Now and Then. Today, I will cover the NHL and NBA playoffs. Last night, the surprise Predators beat the Blues 4-3. Nashville swept the Blackhawks in Round 1. Being a Bruins fan, I was very happy about that. I hope they go far. Last night, P.K. Subban scored a goal and two assists on the anniversary of his first playoff performance. Nashville has a very good chance of advancing.The Oilers beat the Ducks 5-3. The Oilers have a lot of young talent, especially in Connor McDavid. Last night though, Adam Larsson and Leon Draisaitti were the heroes. Larsson scored two goals and Draisaitti had a goal and three assists. On the other side of the bracket, the New York Rangers will face the Ottawa Senators. I am rooting for the Rangers, because the Senators beat the Bruins. If New York could beat the Eastern Conference champion Canadians, than they can...
The San Antonio Spurs and the Toronto Raptors are moving on to the Second Round of the NBA playoffs. The Raptors eliminated the Bucks last night by a score of 92-89. If only Milwaukee got one more three-pointer, There may have been a Game 7. The Spurs beat Memphis by a score of 103-96. I see the Spurs reaching the Western Conference Finals. San Antonio will face Houston in Round Two. The Raptors will face Cleveland in their match up. I'm picking the Cavs in that series for obvious reasons. Both teams won there series 4 games to 2. The Wizards, Celtics, and Jazz will look to move on tonight, ending Round One.
In the NHL, the Senators and Penguins won Game 1 of their series, Pittsburgh by a score of 3-2, and Ottawa by a score of 2-1. The Penguins jumped out to a 2-0 lead thanks to two Sidney Crosby goals, but the Caps came back to tie it. Then, Nick Bonino broke the tie. The Rangers took a 1-0 lead, but then the Senators tied it. Then, in the Third, Erik Karlsson scored to take a lead. Tonight, the Ducks and Blues will try to bounce back from Game 1 losses to the Oilers and Predators. Enjoy the Games!
