Just a few things that caught my eye:

• Best save of the night? Zdeno Chara's backhanded snag in the last minute. That stung, but not as much as it would have had the puck found twine.

• Tuukka Rask, second-best goalie in the world or just lucky? Discuss.

• Patrick Kane finally showed up Thursday night. He even back checked. Amazing.

• Bryan Bickell is on a four-game, five-point streak and he has five goals in his last seven games. Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang were oh-fer Boston. As in no goals, no assists, no nuthin. Just saying.

• Kaspars Daugavins, where have you been all my life? That inside-out toe drag got you right into the slot and you almost found twine. I didn't know you had that in you.

• Yoo-hoo, Drew Doughty -- where are you? Slava Voynov is embarrassing you.

• Two guys who have not looked out of place this postseason -- Torey Krug and Tyler Toffoli. 

• The Penguins scored twice in four games. The offensively constricted Kings have already scored eight. Just saying.

• The Bruins joined the NHL in 1924, the Hawks arrived in 1926 and the Original Six era began in 1942-1943. If the Hawks push through, those two teams will face each other in the finals for the first time ever. How did that happen? Oh right -- there were haves and have nots in the Original Six, too.
