Good Luck in this Series Guys.. Not really any Hate between both clubs yet! Clean and hard fought series should be the case!

Like there's any hope for the Dutch when they play Germany

But as a BVB supporter I guess I'll miss most of Game 1...

Ouch

1988 will always be a fond memory for me and the other 15.999.999 Dutch people

Here's hoping the Rangers come out flying! Heading to the Supermarket to get some beers and some steaks and sit outsite watching the game on the big screen!

 

[Ex Officer Friendly]

Good luck Rangers fans. Hoping for a long and hard fought series.

Hey its a game day...... GET OUT

 

[NYR27]

Congrats

ha - I see what you did there

it was that Elementary education that taught me to detect the tone....lol

Don't underestimate Habs fans. lol

It's Saturday; I slept in. I haven't even finished the first pot of coffee yet.

I turned 18 in September, am actually closer to 19 now. Almost old enough to buy tobacco product, exciting!

It used to be 18.

I wonder what Vegas would put the Rick Nash scoring odds at?

Rick Nash scores: 10-1
Rick Nash scores 2 goals : 50-1
Rick Nash gets a hatty: 200-1
Rick Nash has the most goals in the series: 75-1

I'll put $2 on each of those; he won't let me down (this time)!


I wasn't too worried about Philly, mildly worried about Pittsburgh, and didn't think we'd have a chance against Boston. I think we have a fighting chance against the Habs, and we could hang with Chicago. If we faced LA, the Gabby trade would bite us in the ass.

I need a new hat for jogging, but I'm going to wait to buy a new Rangers one for a few weeks, just in case.

Funny really...two "soft" teams ended up in the ECF, while all the physical teams are knocked out

I'm starting to wonder how important toffness really is...

 

[nasmis]

I happen to be in the NYC area. Anyone know a good place in Manhattan to watch the game?

It's going to be an amazing game and an even better series!

Rick Nash gets a hat trick today..book it.

How about just a goal

 

[johnmd20*]

How about just a goal

Agreed. Predicting a Nash hat trick is just stupidity. It's not that it can't happen, it's just that it won't happen.

 

[BLOCKERSAVE]

Too lazy to read previous message if the information was given. Anybody can tell me if I can watch the game online in real time?

 

[David Suzuki]

Good luck today & over the next two weeks bois & girls

Since we are playing a Canadian team, does that mean the NBC guys will be on our side for a change?

 

[PromNite]

I used to use Ask Jeeves. I'm surprised you know what AltaVista is. I only used that site to translate ****.

I still feel like we have yet to play at our top level consistently while I see a few things in MTL's game that would indicate overachieving which may not be sustainable. If we can elevate and they come back down to earth it's going to be a good series for us. If they don't it will make it tougher, but still feel pretty confident.

As much as I hate NBC sometimes, they're way more professional than the Canadian networks that openly root for Canadian teams.

They should have one on Long Island. I've gone to a few in the city, but I'm not waking up at 9AM so I can trek to the city, especially since I do it 5 days a week anyway. Tons of Rangers fans out here.

Funny really...two "soft" teams ended up in the ECF, while all the physical teams are knocked out

I'm starting to wonder how important toffness really is...

It's not. Toughness in the form of Weise, Prust, Dorsett, Carcillo, Boyle, etc. Not toughness in the sense of John Scott.

LGR!!! I'm feeling sick.

 

[Machinehead]

So much more afraid now than I was 2 years ago.

 

[PromNite]

I gotta say, whatever happens... I have absolutely fallen in love with this group of guys that we have this year. Love the way they play together, love AV's system, love all of it.

Except Rick Nash. He can get ****ed.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

So much more afraid now than I was 2 years ago.

Good. No underestimating the opponent. In 2012, we were flying high. We were top of the conference, home ice advantage all the way and winning the Winter Classic. That reg. season was amazing. This time, the team has a lot more experience and is much more cautious when it comes to taking things for granted.

Really? I'm much more relaxed, simply because it wouldn't be the effing Devils we'd lose to.

I just feel like we actually have a chance to win this series. New Jersey to me, was over before it started. We were playing our worst hockey of the year.

That's why I'm nervous. Hope.

 

[KingP]

This is seriously unhealthy lol. My heart pounds before and during the game. I feel like I'm having a panic attack

This. We we're the favorite to win the east in 2012. This time we;re the underdog. I prefer being the underdog...even if it means we dont get home ice.
