GDT: New York Rangers @ New Jersey Devils: Party spoiler edition

[mrwarped]

Boucher had a very good game, best of the year.

For the Rangers, expectations just lead to a hell of a lot more hurt when they fall. I'll be there to lick up their tears when it happens.

From your lips to God's ears.

hey, we suck!

The wolves were out after Larsson got burned by one of the best players in the league in OT earlier this season.

And some people think it's ridiculous that I'm calling out Merrill though.

President's Trophy winner has gotten knocked out in the 1st round for the past 5 years.

Both instances were over the top

 

[Devils Dominion]

Wait til you all see the last second goal Halak just let in

Also since 1986 has only won the cups 8 times

 

[StvBroDan]

As kids will do...

Correct and at some point it needs to stop or things change. If the clown face played them more often they might be in better shape. **** PD and Lou for letting it go on.

 

[Oneiro]

This game is one of the best things that can happen to the team.

A reality check across the board for everybody.

Your rival clinching the Pres. trophy on your ice? You remember that **** when you're training this summer.

May that stat continue this year.

And there's the jinx. Thanks.

No more excuses for Lou his time has come....no more oh Parise/Kovy left and "what was he supposed to do?" or he built up the defense...this is a business and he has COMPLETELY failed this fan base and needs to be held accountable like any other GM would

If he brings back Oates as head coach, that's my last straw.

They won't see a dime from me outside of a center ice package next season.

Those two barely have one full season between them. It takes a few seasons for that to stop.

not if you knock on wood

 

[Better Call Sal]

I just hope they draw Boston in the first round.

Boston needs to do some losing, and Detroit and Pitt need to do some winning.

They are too good to flame out early. As much as I hate them, unlike their ******* fans, I can admit and acknowledge how good they are even as a rival. It's hard for me to envision a scenario in which they don't make it to the finals. They are that good. I mean, Pit isn't that good, the Isles are spiraling down the drain as they enter the playoffs, the Caps are traditional playoff losers, Tampa might be the wild card, but I think the rags are the cream of the crop in the East.

The West is better again, though.

The end is near. We may have to tolerate one more year of this nonsense. He's gone if they don't make the playoffs next year. Gone!

 

[Emperoreddy]

Terrific crowd? What are you talking about Stan? It was almost 50/50

My guess is Detroit.

Doesn't really matter when the players aren't good enough

Should be a reality check to management though

 

[JimEIV]

Kinkaid is still using an Albany Devil shaving bag....did anyone else notice that?

 

[Uli Hiemer]

Those President's Trophy stats do nothing for me

The Devils are so ****ing bad that I can't even properly hate the Rangers anymore.

Tampa is way better then a wild card, and the Habs are good too.

Putting stock in traditional playoff losers is silly. Caps team this year is not the same as the one in the past. They will give people headaches.
