So, can anyone tell me when was the last time both the 1 and 2 seeds were knocked off in the first round?

Detroit and Dallas both looked flat in the playoffs. It just goes to show that when you have everything locked up well before the season ends, you still need to play at a high level because you can't just flip the switch and all of a sudden start playing your best hockey again. Even when it mattered most, the top two teams in the Western Conference got outplayed by the two lowest seeds, who have been playing for their playoff lives the last couple of months.

I'm pulling for Anaheim, but I still think we'll be seeing Avalanche/Sharks and Oilers/Flames this weekend. Both should be great series.

Holy crap! Colorado can do no wrong agianst Dallas! Two games in a row they go down by 1 in the 3rd, two games in a row Brunette scores a goal in the final minutes to tie it up, and two games in a row the Avs win in OT. The OT goal was a fluke, but Avs definitely have Turco's number. I wouldn't be suprised if Dallas benches him on Friday.

Hell yes! Edmonton is sticking it to the Wings. I fell asleep during the intermission after the first OT, but was relieved when I woke up to find that the Oilers scored the game winner halfway into the next period. It'll be awesome if they can go up 3-1 on Detroit tomarrow. Being an Avs fan, it's just awesome anytime I get to see the Wings lose, especially in the playoffs. Especially when they're ranked #1.

Can't wait to see the Avs win again tonight at home!

Check out this screenshot comparison. Check out the shot from the Dark/Sega transfer:

From what I've seen, the Special Collection LD's are the closest in color to the actual film. The only problem with them is that they are a little too blue/green overall, as the film's age was starting to show at the time of the telecine. Still, I'd say that the original color was more blue/purple than red/orange. Whether that's a "deliberate creative decision" or not, who knows.

Edmonton is playing very well. Especially since they're going against arguably the #1 team in the playoffs in Detroit. They're pretty much taken the Red Wings off their game and have been playing them very physical. The Wings won game 1 in OT, but the Oilers won convincingly in game 2. Edmonton fans don't have much to complain about at this point.
