If the rangers or hawks win the cup I win $500.
If the kings win the cup I win bragging rights and self satisfaction.
Montreal is the only team that if they win I would not get some sort of satisfaction. So go Rangers Go Kings!

That's awesome.

But why do all these videos always have to have the gross generic 90s rock in the background. Just because it comes with iMovie doesn't mean you have to use it.
 
Would love to see the Canadiens making a series out of it. Love the Martin St. Louis storyline, and love that Hank is rising to the occasion (as well as McDonagh being a beast and Zuccarello being St. Louis evil little sidekick protege), but I also loathe goalie smashing and now that the Canadiens have become the underdog due to the lack of Price I'd love to see them cram that right down the Rangers throat.

Edit: I also don't know if I can stomach a "player discussion" thread for everyone on the Rangers roster, so go Habs :P

Oh man, that's fantastic.

Brown cracks me up. "Why do you think I threw a muffin on that? I've got a harder shot than that." :laugh:

and "Carty's a disher now eh?" "Yeah groomed him well." lol.

I also loved the "You can't win the Stanley Cup tonight, but you can't win the Stanley Cup without a win tonight."

Slycer and Brad Doty, I really enjoyed seeing this on NHL Tonight. I was hoping someone would post it. It showed that the team's leaders have a lot of passion. Brown really showed his leadership, imo, encouraging, ribbing and firing up his teammates. Really liked those Brown, Kopitar and Richards quotes. You watch Richards interviews from Summer 2011 and compare them to pieces like this, what a massive difference. He went from shock and disappointment at being traded to what we see now...

ETA: yes, old photo, but we see a lot of smiles from him like this now.

Matchups with division rivals can be toss up at times

Habs know B's weakness well (Speed hurts B's) and got in B's head taking them off game. It also was major problem for B's that Rask struggles vs Habs and was generally meh at times in series

Red Wings nearly did same thing to Hawks last year but couldn't finish Hawks. Game 4 everyone saw Toews get frustrated and take 3 straight penalties and Seabs come over and speak to him getting him focused. Also saw Q bench Seabrook that game for his poor play in series. That turned out to be turning point in series and Hawks outplayed Wings in games 5-7 and won series

B's never seemed to have that moment. After game 5 victory it was as if they assumed it was over and the Habs came out for game 6 and took it to them and then in game 7 the B's looked lost and couldn't do anything right until 3rd but even then the Habs continued to push back and didn't fold (like Leafs 2013)
 
Hope the Habs can win game 3. The Rangers board is embarrassing right now, they are acting like the rangers have already made the finals and comparing which team they would prefer. :rolleyes:

If Gibson is Jesus, Lundqvist is GOD.

Cruel out for a late night troll run. Love it.

Ha, can't help it. They haven't even won the cup these past couple of years; always crumbling and poor KING Lundqvist unable to win the shiny silver trophy. Sit your ass down and don't get cocky. Hawks fans being smug- I get, but what the **** have the rangers accomplished?

King Hank (I lol at that ****ing nickname every time) is in a commercial for Advil. So...


Advil >>>>> Stanley Cup >>>>>> Conn Smythe >>>>> 10th Prestige in CoD

If the Rangers and Kings make the Final, it will be the King against the Kings.

If Dwight King scores on Hank, it will read "King scored on King."

Will Hank get confused and mistakenly join the Kings in their locker room between periods?

It's all so very confusing.
 
Without tempting faith too much.... How much chance does an eastern team have against CHI or LA should they meet in the Final? They're currently taking MTL to the cleaners but the Kings wiped the floor with MTL in the regular season too. Is it just me or is anybody coming out of the west [barring any serious injuries on the team] a clear cut favourite?
