Hate both those teams...

Hate Rangers more. I can't believe I'm saying it, but I hate Tortorella more than Dale Hunter. Of the Quebec Nordiques, Hunter. Back when I lived in Montreal. Man, I didn't think I could hate anyone as much. Tucker didn't even come close.

I don't hate either coach or anything, but really am sick of how the Rangers play, and I really hope it bites them in the Donkey. They were lucky to get out of the first round, lucky to win game 5 in this series, and they'll be extremely lucky to get out of round 2. Their luck has to run out sometime.

The Caps can be a little more entertaining to watch...Backstrom is just amazing. Plus, you gotta be pulling for Holtby.

Caps played a bit of Ranger hockey last night and it got them the win... huge Game 7 coming up. I think Rags will need the 2 days off to regroup. And bonus, it's a Sat night game - no afternoon game. Huzzah!

Yeah, thank God it's a Saturday night game. A game 7 in the afternoon would just seem WRONG.

Everytime that bunghole has a post game PC, hd annoys me.

I actually find them refreshing. I mean, yeah, he's being a bit of a jerk, but I consider it a step up from a lot of the cliches you normally get. And you have to respect the job he's done at turning millionaire athletes into puck-blocking machines. I'm sure their motiviation to block pucks is based in fear.

Hate the rangers, but for the game to have massive appeal in the states, which is still very important for the league to succeed, I'm hoping for a LA-NY final. Though I don't like the rangers chances against the devils (surprisingly, the devils seem to be the more exciting team as well!)

Nevertheless, come on LA/NY final!

After every PC I want to smack that baby upside the head and tell him to grow up.

Y'know there's a game 7 right? I actually like the Caps chances heading back to NY. The Rangers offense is microscopic.

Yes, I read your post, assuming that we're referring to the one where you said "I don't like the rangers chances against the devils".

Yes well I'm not implying that the rangers are a shoe-in. Rather that even if they can manage to get by the caps, they'll have a tough time against the devils, and thus won't allow for an NHL dream final. Not that hard Tim.

No playoff hockey for 2 night... sigh...

He *used to be* refreshing. Now he's just a jerk for no reason.
