Michael Del Zotto became the third Rangers defenseman to score a game-winning goal this postseason, joining Dan Girardi (Game 7 vs. Ottawa) and Marc Staal (Game 5 vs. Washington). He now has eight points ( two goals, six assists) to lead all defensemen in the league.
Brad Richards bolstered his big-game rep, scoring just 92 seconds in. He and Marian Gaborik are now 4-0 in Game 7s, Ruslan Fedotenko 6-0.
Also, check out Brian Boyle’s surprise (and disappointment) after he was told his third period goal was kicked in. Your thoughts, Boneheads?

Complete amateur-hour and the clowns still win the game.
New Jersey in 3; Brodeur with a Game One hat trick.
What a tense but awesome game. Now in my opinion, they have had a successful season. Anything from here on is just a bonus. But I want that cup! It’s been too damn long without one.
LGR!!!!!!
Lol Miami! Debbies in two
they need to make up their minds… was it intent to suck and blow, goalie interference (with no penalty) or kicked in? the more their lips flap, the dumber they sound…. BECAUSE IT’S THE CUP
I didnt think Boyle kicked that goal in. Looked like their d man carried the Puck into the net.
Wow rangers are in the eastern finals no carcilllo
LOL @ “because it’s the Cup”
Like I said on the other thread, a part of me agrees with the goalie interference call, but I’m not 100% sure
Wash D-man put puck in the net. Boyle should have had the goal. That was BS.
Never had such a good time
in my life before
I’d like to have it one time more
One good ride from start to end
I’d like to take that ride again
Again
Popsicles and golden oreos did the jOb this night. Go rangers!!!!
Brian Leetch said it was a good call…good enough for me…
Hagelin was outstanding!
MDZ was not that good through two periods but had a heck of a third.
Staal once again= monster!
Hank was hank. And that is what he needed to be in order for us to win.
Brad Richards is a big time money player.
That goal not counting was highway robbery!
Something is not right with Cally and it’s not his finger. He’s just not playing with that spark.
The second line did what they needed to do. They will be a major factor in the Devils series.
They sure dont make it easy on us fans.
Anyway, good night all and LGR!!
I guarantee there is no momentum
The Rangers are NOT about to let the Dweebils beat them.
Am I bad for wanting the Rangers to lose 1 game so I can go to game 5?
Wow wow weeee wow.
Czech.
I agree something is up with Cally.
We need him going.
Hey Carp, thanks for the guarantee
The Kreider is the sole reason we won this game.
Hey do you guys remember when the Rangers made it into the ECF?
Manny, eeeeeeeee!!!!!
Awful officiating on the Boyle goal. 95 times out of 100 that’s a legit goal.
Champions win DESPITE despicable officiating.
BECAUSE IT’S THE CUP!!!!! Lol
The Queen again gave up a softie and morons are singing her praises.
Am I the only one who watches objectively?
This team is doomed in the next round.
It’s going to be a combo amateur-hour / bush-league like this world has never before witnessed.
SALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think if we win the Cup, you should give Pepperoni Boy his first kiss!!!!!!!!!
WE WANT THE CUP!!!! WE WANT THE CUP!!!!!
Wow! Richards is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can say you sound like spoiled B who only watches the rangers objectively or not. We have a gem in net.
Go wash the Taurus.
LGR !!!!!
Lol love you guys.
Josh and Carp, you are posting too fast!!!!
Hags with 2 assists but he didn’t score a goal so he is still in his scoring drought…
MAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See that, you do the right thing and take your Mama to the play, and ilb goes to the fundraiser, and we win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KARMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mama’s mama is now fast asleep :) shhhhhhh. But we had a great time…...all the better for the win…..bartender across from theater was cracking up each time I ran in for updates…..thank heavens for a Rangers friendly Irish pub nearby!
OK, I gotta go niters….catch you all tomorrow! Whoooo hoooooo!!!!!!!!!
The Rangers won because of The Carp. They weren’t going anywhere all those years when Carp was off the beat. Now he’s back at the Garden and suddenly they’re in the Conference Finals. Coincidence? I think not!
Also
Because It’s The Carp ™
great win by the boys. Rangers match up better against NJ than Ottawa or Washington so Rangers in 5!!!
so glad Holtby got fed tonight…learn to keep your mask on like PROFESSIONAL.
Tiki, re: kissing Pepperoni Boy, NO.
:)
What a special team. Youve got grinders, stars, vets, young guys, a kid a month out of BC. Wow. Special.
the new lines were much much better. Anisimov played well also.
get dubi back and do not dress mitchell or Rupp add another guy who can skate.
this team is very tough… Staal is upping his game big time…..
boyles goal should have been allowed…..........
What happened? Did we win? I was watching NASCAR… ;-)
