Calgary
At
San Jose

Up 2-1, Calgary and San Jose are currently playing Sunday.
Then, on Monday, they come back to San Jose, CA, to play game 5.

I am surprised there are back-to-back games played by both teams in playoffs. But, I don’t know much about hockey. (Hell, I don’t even know what “icing” means; announcers never take the time to explain it when I was jumping on Mighty Ducks bandwagon last year and watched most games of the Ducks in the playoffs).

That’s why John Madden is an awesome commentator - if you know nothing about football and listen to Madden for one season, you’ll know most of what you need to know because he explains everything. Hockey announcers assume the audience knows everything about hockey….which is why hockey isn’t as popular as the other 3 sports NBA, NFL, MLB. Madden rocks!!!!!!!

Hockey is a cult sport, and they really don't care who joins the cult. Icing is a pass that crosses 2 lines and is first touched by a player on the passers team when the teams are at equal strenth or the passing team is at a manpower advantage. In 12th grade I explained that in French to my class.
Calgary 4-3
Because Canadians deserve to win in hockey, not Nortern Californians.
