The Milwaukee Admirals Thread...

Got back from the game today, and I know that there are Admirals fans on here, and I thought it was only appropriate to start playoff talk. After today's game they are still in fourth place in the West and have a four point lead over Houston, so unless they completely fall apart in the remaining thirteen games, they should be in the postseason, even if it is because of the cross-over rule. Rich Peverley should be back from Nashville once David Legwand returns for the Predators and Cal O'Reilly is having a career year. Matt Ellison and Cal O'Reilly have really stepped it up during Peverley's three promotions and they have showed that they can play with out him, making his presence in Milwaukee a huge impact. I think the Admirals have a chance to be competitive in the playoffs especially with the one-two punch of Peverley and O'Reilly. Antti Pihlstrom and John Vigilante have also played well, and the team is really starting to fire on all cylinders over the last six games. Alex Henry has played good stay at home defense and Pekka Rinne has also played decent lately. Should Milwaukee get the fourth slot they would have to play Chicago which has been a problem, but I like the way the Ads have been playing, and if nothing else it has been a nice finish to the season. Hopefully they could sneak by Chicago and roll their way deeper into the postseason. It might even be easier if they did get the cross-over because I think Chicago is more dangerous than Toronto, plus it seems like Milwaukee can't stop Jason Krog.

Really good game today, and this homestand has been awesome. I really think the refs got it wrong on O'Reilly's goal in the 1st, but oh well. I'll take a 5-2 win anyday. Especially with one of those goals coming on a 6 on 3.

Anyone make it to the game today? Would have been nice to win it in regulation and not give Houston a point, but still, excellent game, really exciting and it was nice that there were so many people there to see it.
