Monday April 27

Two more series wrapped up on Monday as a mighty giant fell (San Jose) to a surprisingly good #8 seed (Anaheim) and a youthful troupe (Chicago) kicked out the pathetically pathetic (Calgary). There was only one Former Islander happening of note. Here goes:

Calgary winger Todd Bertuzzi scored his team's lone goal as the Flames fell at home 4-1 to the Chicago Blackhawks. The 'Hawks took the series 4-2. Bert was all but invisible in the series as he snapped a 4 game point-less streak with the netter. He compiled a measly 2 points (1 goal, 1 assist) in the 6 games. The score snapped a 13 game playoff goal-less streak dating back to May 17, 2007 during Bertuzzi's brief stay with the Detroit Red Wings.

Check back soon with FIW as Tuesday will round out the first round.
