A lot has happened since I last posted. The Blues stayed alive in their Game 5 win, and will look to force a Game 7 today at 3:00. The other team that was on the brink of elimination was the Capitals. They were trailing 2-1 in the Third, but tied it 3 minutes into the period. With 12:40, the Penguins still had hope to take back the lead. 27 seconds later, the Capitals were winning 4-2.  They won by that score and will also try to force a Game 7 on Monday. The Senators beat the Rangers in OT and will look to finish them off. Hopefully the Rangers can force a Game 7 as well. The other team looking to come back from 3-2 is the Oilers, who originally had a 2-0 series lead. Game 6 of that series is also tonight.

In the NBA, the Jazz fought hard against the Warriors last night, and actually had a lead of as many as 9 points in the Third. But the Warriors came back and won 102-91. At 3:30, the Cavaliers will look to sweep the Raptors. The Celtics will try to get a 3-1 series lead against the Wizards after that, and in the last game of the day, the Spurs will look to do the same. Its a great time to be a sports fan.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are trying to do something even more impossible than what they did last year: come back form being down 3-0 in the series. The Warriors dominated the first two games, but game 3 was a thriller that the Warriors barely won. Last night however, it was the Cavs who dominated. They set some many records, that in order to see them all, you have to click here.  http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/19593666/nba-playoffs-2017-nba-finals-records-set-game-4  Also there is an incredible play by Lebron. Can he lead Cleveland to a second straight title, or will Golden State use their home court advantage? Speaking of home advantage, the Penguins creamed the Predators in game 5 in Pittsburgh. However, I think the Preds will force a game 7, because game 6 is in Nashville. The Finals are coming to a dramatic end, so be sure not to miss a moment.

Finals have both been decided, and they look familiar. For the third straight year, the Cavaliers will face the Warriors in the NBA Finals. The Warriors won the 2015 Finals in six games, but the Cavs came back from being down 3-1 to win the 2016 Finals. This year, I think the Warriors will get revenge on Cleveland because they are hungrier, and they added Kevin Durant in the off-season. In the NHL, it will be the second straight year in which the Penguins will face a team in its first Stanley Cup Final. Nashville will hope that it will do better than last year's Sharks, who lost to Pittsburgh in five. Pittsburgh will try to win two straight for the second time in franchise history. However, the Predators are a very tough, resilient team, and if anyone can beat the champs, its Nashville. Tune in tonight to see who will win the first game of what I think will be a very close Final.

Michael Gabner's wrap around first period goal was the second out of four Rangers goals in Game 3. Game 4 is tomorrow. The NHL playoff matchups are becoming closer, as the Ducks and Capitals could get even with wins tonight after being down 2-0 before Game 3 wins. The Capitals did this by beating the Penguins 3-2 in Overtime. They caught a break after Sidney Crosby got a concussion. Despite having tied the game at three, the OIlers were overwhelmed by the Ducks, who won 6-3. The team that could not tie their series was the Blues  They could not score enough and lost to Nashville 2-1. The Predators could advance on Friday. The Rangers accomplished did come back in their series last night and had an offensive explosion at Madison Square Garden. They beat the Senators 4-1 thanks to two first period goals and two second period goals.  The Senators scored their lone goal after all four New York goals were scored. Isaiah Thomas electrified the crowd with his 53 points on ...
