Canucks lead the series 2 to 1.

The congressman admitted Monday that he sent lewd photos from his Twitter account to at least 6 women. He offered a tearful apology but refused to resign.

And a reporter asked him 'what were you thinking?' Things got awkward when the Congressman looked at his crotch and said 'well answer the man!" Letterman also did his Top 10 Monday on the Congressman: Top 10 Questions to ask yourself before tweeting a picture of yourself. Matt's favorite - #3: What was Brett Favre do?
