One more day of guessing for Rangers
-
- April
- 21
Montreal shells Boston. Alexander Ovechkin remembers that he’s Alexander Ovechkin.
Those are your top stories out of tonight’s hockey action.
For the Rangers it comes down to Game 7 between Washington and Philadelphia. If Washington wins, it’s off to Montreal. If Philadelphia wins, Pittsburgh awaits.
I have hotel rooms booked in both cities, but let’s just say given the absolute gag job by the Flyers – four unanswered goals tonight, two straight losses—I am already brushing up on my French.

Allez Rangers!
No matter how it impacts the Rangers (and I think facing Price and the Habs is far more desirable than facing Crosby and the Pens) I just can’t get that upset when Philthy gags. It’s just always a good thing.
I’m thinking road trip to Montreal fellas. Who’s in?
Jey guys soem Rangers are going to be on Letterman tonight, says so on the web page
Hey guys,
some Rangers will be on Letterman tonight. I don’t know who, it was on the website.
I think the caps are going to win.
Looks like Les Can Cans. Too bad Philly blew their series tonight.
Knuble is out and that hurts Philly. I’d rather face Montreal personally and get some payback for 1986 (yeah, I was all of 5 years old but I’ve heard the story many times).
Avery is on Letterman.
Let’s see if Coach Stevens of the Flyers has the onions to use Niittymaki tomorrow. I just heard on the Philly NBC news that Biron is 0-5, giving up six goals per game in the second game of personal back-to-back starts this season. I thought Biron should have been pulled after the first game! I think I would almost cream myself to watch the Washington Ovechkins vs. the Pittsburgh Croskins. Ohhhhhh BABY!!
Good luck getting a ticket, Lohan!

LOL – *Avery’s really beating up this bald dude.” – Gomez
“I really should have given him this cup” – Shanny, as he holds up a protective cup the size of his thumb
That was on David Letterman just now; thanks for those who mentioned it earlier, or else I would have kept watching Jay Leno’s headlines!
I guess that’s what the rangers do when they have to many days off it was actually pretty good Its nice to see the rangers get some publicityy
In case any one follows rest of NHL or just curious about the Western Conference. One series undecided, SJ/CGY….Game 7 tomorrow night…Here are the potential Round 2 matchups:
1 Det
2 SJ
5 Dallas
6 Colorado
7 Calgary
if Calgary wins –
Detroit vs Calgary
Dallas vs Colorado
if SJ wins –
Detroit vs Colorado
SJ vs Dallas
Sam-
No matter who we play, you know what your job is right?
ALWAYS ask ANYONE, ANYWHERE—WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT SEAN AVERY! Ask them how they are gooing to stop SEAN AVERY. Ask them if they are afraid of SEAN AVERY. :)
In game 5 against NJD Avery took like 6 big hits, Jagr took 1, Gomez took 0 and Lundqvist was left alone.
Last year against Buffalo they didn’t really pay any attention to Sean after the 1st period in the 1st game, and Sean was a no factor. Sean needs to make damn sure whoever we plays pays attention to him this time.
Sam- The perfect quesion, ask who ever we plays—if they will mention Sean Averys name?
Will they shake Sean Averys hand after the POs?
=)

What a way to get the day started! Thanks for the link Andy.
Dude that was priceless! Thanks for the link.
That Montreal team is pretty dam good. They dominated the Bruins last night. There is no break with that lineup. All 4 lines can score and skate. The only weakness I see is that they have a rookie in net.
Pittsburgh is no picnic either.
I don’t care who we play, I just want it to start already!
You know Avery hates those French speaking Canadians so that would certainly put a twist on a Rangers montreal series

embarrassing for the Devils to think they were going to be playing for the cup…I think they are delusional.
I’m just a fan, and I knew early in the year that with that lineup the debbies were going nowhere this season.
Stupid Canadiens.

The Habs did look good last night, but it looked like the Bruins took the night off and spent all their energy in game 6. I am not that worried about facing either team. I think we could take either of them in 5 or 6 games.
MTL skated well last night, but that was really a 3-0 game. The B’s kinda gave up 1/2 way through the 3rd. And the 5th goal was f’n BS. 5 seconds left and they’re playing like its a tie game in the cup finals. I hate the Montreal Canadiens. It’d be better for my blood pressue if we played Pitt. Both have their +’s & -’s.
We beat the Pens 5 out of 8 games
and we beat the Habs 3 out of 4 games this year, bring them on.
I’d like to see Washington and Calgary win tonight. It would make for some GREAT second round matchups.
In the East: Montreal vs. Rangers, Pittsburgh vs. Washington
In the West: Detroit vs. Calgary, Dallas vs. Colorado
I think those are great matchups that could all go 7 games.
That’s exactly what I want Andrew—nice work.
I HATE montreal. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I hate the pens, but I HATE montreal. Setting fire to 3 police cars…f’ing morons.
