It’s time again, Gentle Listener, for another episode of the IPB Hour. In this week’s installment we stretch our metaphors for how we feel about the Flyers to ridiculous lengths, review the four second-round series that have just concluded, and spin our wheels while trying to convince ourselves that we don’t care about the [...]

Here we go, Game 2 of the Official Series We Care About — Go Pens! Go Stars! We’ll be filling this with what little thoughts pop into our heads as we watch the games today and tonight.

Gentle Reader, after a day of “yardfun” (if we called it work we’d never get it done) we’re too pooped for anythin other than an open thread for tonight’s Montreal-Philadelphia match-up. We were delighted to discover Detroit won handily this afternoon. We wonder if Stan Fischler has changed his prediction to Colorado in [...]
