Hahahaha!!!
Shocked that we’ll be going into the conference finals without the Pens, Canucks, Preds, Blues, Flyers, Bruins, Red Wings…. Wow.
Seems like a good chance for a New York team to go all the way.
Did I just hear that right? Mike Smith was an “Olympic level” slow pitch softball catcher??? None of that exists.
pretty good chance Smith has most of his softball gear hidden somewhere in his equipment
SCX
I said it before, the Rangers might reach the Stanley Cup and play 2 8 seeds, a 7 seed and a 6 seed. Pretty good draw eh?
REPOST, got Carp’d:
Fun story for you guys. Long read, but entertaining:
So I’m at the game with my pops, and we’re feeling pretty down. We still have hope, but you know how it is. Anyway, with 2 minutes left, we decide to wait in the concourse and just watch it on the TVs. If the Rangers didn’t pull it off, we didn’t want to sit in traffic for hours. Would have made it so much worse, so by being in the concourse, we could bolt out and beat the traffic.
So we’re standing in the concourse watching it on the TV and more and more people start leaving. I could tell my pops is getting anxious (he drove us both in and he HATES traffic) so we walk down the escalators, and I keep checking my phone, telling him to HOLD ON, HOLD ON!
We reach the final exit and I said JUST WAIT. IT’S NOT OVER.
But he was not hearing it.
So we left, and as we reach the parking garage, we hear a rumble. Then the streets of New York EXPLODE. Car horns, people cheering, the works. “THEY TIED IT” I scream to him. So I say, “LETS GO ACROSS THE STREET, THERE ARE BARS ALL OVER LETS GO!”
He goes, “Let’s leave the city first! We have 20 minutes, we’ll leave the city and find a bar in Hoboken or Secaucus.
So we leave. We exit the Tunnel and we keep driving and we are finding NOTHING. Overtime starts on the radio. We keep driving and I see an Outback Steakhouse. I scream to him to pull in! We pull in. We can’t find parking and park in a security spot. We run into the EMPLOYEE BACK ENTRANCE of Outback Steakhouse.
10 seconds after we run into the restaurant, we see the game on TV, and we see the game winning goal. We both scream so loud as the restaurant looks on in utter fear and confusion.
Let’s. Go. Rangers.
One of the shots on the MSG post game show shows how the team and Torts reacted on the bench during the Staal OT goal. But what I thought was Cool was seeing Justin Tuck in his LQ jersey going nuts and jumping for joy up and down. Pretty cool.
oleo:
considering at least two of those series will go no fewer than 6 games, it’s hardly an easy draw.
Stop jumping the gun on thinking about how far this team can go. It’s bad luck! LOL
Czech
if you get to watch the reaction from the bench again
let me know if it’s Boyle or Kreider who jumps so high
that his left leg goes over the boards and quickly climbs over to the ice and
celebrate
new post.
I knew they would win because I never stopped drinking beer.
so, even some players aren’t always positive.
from Puck Daddy write up:
“And just like that, the Rangers had stolen Game 5 right back. Nobody expected it. According to Elliotte Friedman, Henrik Lundqvist admitted he was already thinking about going to Washington down 3-2 when Richards scored.”
only the fans on this blog had the psychic powers necessary to predict a Ranger win tonight
Huge huge win. But I Think Torts did not do a good job of coaching tonight. The lines were awful and should be put back. Despite Mitchell’s face win which really was a fortunate bounce of of Hendricks leg, he has no business anywhere near a power play.
Rupp sucks! No two ways about it. Just an awful awful player and lazy too.
MDZ was brutal all game long tonight.
But they still won and that is all that matters.
Oh yeah, and Brad Richards is a big time money player!
Who’s Justin Tuck?
You got it, Mickey – let’s not give ourselves “The Evil Eye”, AKA “Il Malocchio”....How’s that, jpg!?
