I Told You Getzlaf Was A Champ

Hey Peeps and anyone else checking in. A special "Hey" goes out to Hazel Mae.

The Ananheim Ducks evened the Western Conference Final at two games apiece with a 5-3 win over the Red Wings last night. The Ducks, who were without all world defencemen Chris Pronger, were lucky to get out of the first period with a 3-1 lead - they were outplayed by Detroit and had it not been for J.S. Giguere, it could have been the Wings up after the first period. The second period also belonged to the Red Wings as they had seven power play opportunities - cashing in on two of them. Anaheim got their game together in the third period - getting a third period power play goal from Ryan Getzlaf and an empty netter from Rob Niedermeyer.

Its going to be an interesting weekend in the NHL - to be discussed tomorrow.

The Red Sox get a good performance from Julian Tavarez and a gutsy/grinding performance from Curt Schilling to sweep a day/night doubleheader with the Tigers - who in the hell do these guys think they are...the Dodgers?


HAZEL'S THREE STARS
Anaheim Ducks C Ryan Getzlaf really stepped up last night for the Ducks - Getzlaf had been called out by Ducks GM Brian Burke as one of the guys who had to be more consistent and needed to step things up in Pronger's absence. The kid responded with the winning goal.

Tampa Bay Devil Rays RF Delmon Young hit two home runs, including a walk off two run shot in the 10th, and drove in five in Tampa's 8-6 victory over the Texas Rangers - spoiling a good game from our boy Mark Texeira.

Milwaukee Brewers OF Gabe Gross (a former Toronto Blue Jays prospect) had two home runs to lead the Brewers to a 3-2 win over the Phillies.


FRIDAY THREE PLAY
It has been a tough week - we haven't had one of those in a while. We start the day - $415 for the week...we'll fix that this weekend.

San Diego over Seattle - we'll go with Chris Young over former Jays P Miguel Batista. Lay $100 on the Padres - $124.

Milwaukee over Minnesota - the Twins are in a funk right now...going up against Chris Capuano isn't likely to help them out of it. Lay $100 on the Brewers - $155.

Philadelphia over Toronto - we'll take Jon Lieber of Dustin McGowan. Lay $100 on the Phillies - $165.

That's about it for today gang - have a great one peeps!


HAZEL'S FRIDAY HOROSCOPE
You can make some crucial moves today if you discuss your future with people who are involved in the same line of work as you. An emotional similarity with someone you know will bring you closer together. 4 stars

Hazel, I hope things are groovy in your world...have a great weekend.
