 Wow this didn't take long. President's trophy curse lives on as Vegas knocks out Colorado in a 4 game sweep and is now in the Stanley Cup finals. Now they await the end of the Montreal vs Carolina series.

 Canada wins its 6th game, beating Slovakia 5-1. Last game of the round robin is Tuesday vs Czech Republic. A win there should secure top spot in group B. Stay tuned 

 Canada is now 5 for 5 after beating Slovenia 3-1. 14 points and leading the group. Next game is Sunday vs Slovakia.

 Boy Canada barely beat Norway, winning 6-5 in overtime.  11 points now. Next game is tomorrow vs Slovenia.

 I finally got to watching this. Napoleon Solo won the 151st Preakness with a time of 1:58.69. Paco Lopez was winning jockey and Chad Summers winning trainer. Next up the Belmont Stakes on June 6. 

 At 8:32am on this day in 1980, Mt St Helens erupted. 57 people died in the eruption that buried stuff, cataclysmic lahars, forests blown away, Toutle river flowed with ash and trees, Spirit Lake boiled, and flora and fauna took years to recover. Here is a photo of eruption as it started. I don't remember the name of photographer.

 Overtime in game 7 because why not. Montreal wins it 3-2 to advance to the Eastern Conference finals starting Thursday against Carolina. Should be a good one.

 Canada is 3-0 afternoon beating Denmark 5-1. So far so good. Canada's next game is Thursday vs Norway.
