GAME 7, BABY! The Senators and the Penguins face off tonight to decide who gets to meet the Predators in the Final. I know the playoffs are not meant to be included in the voting for end of season player trophies, but Craig Anderson’s performance during the playoffs while supporting his wife through her fight with cancer (f*** cancer!) seem all be assured to garner him the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy.
Personally, my instinct is to root against the more successful team, probably a side effect of growing up supporting Minnesota teams, so I’m pulling for the Senators, but it should be a good game regardless of the outcome.
