The Dallas Stars are on to round two after beating the Ducks four to one tonight. The first half of the game didn’t look good for the Stars. They seemed to be doing everything right, but weren’t reaping the benefits. In the final period, Dallas’ powerplay finally cashed in. The crowd erupted, momentum shifted, and a minute later a second goal was scored. The team Dallas plays in the next round has yet to be determined. Detroit and Colorado have advanced to the second round, but San Jose and Calgary are going to a game seven.
Non-hockey related: I’ve been keeping up with news related to the giant $750 million U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, which is now ready and only six months late. They now have all of the fire alarms and saftey equipment in working order. The following link provides a very complete collection of photographs that put the size of this project in perspective: Eyeballing the US Embassy Baghdad. If you missed my other posts you can see them here (Baghdad US Embassy? More Like Resort) and here (Mounting Incompetence).
