With the Stanley Cup Playoffs well underway, my emotions are on edge to say the least. Even though my team, the New York Rangers, got eliminated in the first round, I still follow the current series and watch as much as I can. If you’re a hockey fan, or if you live with one, you’re familiar with the ups and downs that a competitive series can bring. It’s been said that there is no other sporting event that can match a Game 7 during the NHL Playoffs. Anything can happen and, a last minute goal, even in the final seconds, is more likely than you think. Because of this, viewers are forced to the edge of their seats while watching these games and if you're a serious fan, you probably look something like this.

At the start of the game

When people won't stop talking and you're trying to watch

When the game is so intense you can't watch but you also can't stop watching at the same time

When a player you hate gets hit so hard they take a while to stand up again

When the puck hits the post and barley stays on the other side of the line and won't go in the net

When your team is losing and someone starts making fun of you

When your team has possession of the puck but then one of your players makes a bad pass to the other team

When the ref makes a bad call and your team has to kill the penalty

On the other hand, when your team goes on the power play

When you take your eyes off the screen for 0.2 seconds and miss a goal being scored

When the game is tied and goes into overtime

When the other team scores

When your team scores

When your team loses the series and gets eliminated

When your team wins the series during double-overtime in game 7
