Here’s my story from practice today, for The Journal News and LoHud.com (it’s the unedited version, so please excuse any typos). By Rick Carpiniello GREENBURGH – The last time the Rangers needed to win two in a row at home, Henrik Lundqvist allowed six goals in two victories. The last… Read More →

Gotta tell you, I didn’t think the Rangers could do the 0-2 trick against Washington, so I’m not saying “no way,” but I really don’t get the feeling that this Boston team is going to lose four of five. I think these Bruins are better than Washington, play a style… Read More →

Must win? Not yet. But you probably don’t want to play with those matches again, right. The Rangers came back from 0-2 for the second time in team history against Washington, so you really shouldn’t figure that can happen again, right? I don’t think the Rangers are dead at 0-2,... Read More →

The results are unofficial, because I always wait 24 hours to see if anybody has any protests about my tabulations. But, according to my calculations, Mike S is our first-round contest winner, the only entry with all eight first-round series winners correct. Nine others had seven of the eight series… Read More →

Game 1 wasn’t exactly what I thought it would be. I expected it to be a little meaner, and I though the Bruins would have more surges, and I expected the Rangers to play more along the walls. Actually, I thought, the Rangers moved the puck pretty freely, didn’t forecheck… Read More →

This is probably going to be the mother of all ugly, muck-it-up playoff series, which was kind of the theme of my series preview for The Journal News and LoHud.com today. You can read that by clicking here. Also, you may have seen that Adam Oates claims his Washington Capitals… Read More →

Here is my video preview of Game 1 of the Rangers-Bruins playoff series tonight.

From the Journal News and LoHud.com: By Rick Carpiniello GREENBURGH – The Rangers and Bruins won’t need mirrors this week. They can just look at each other while they’re grinding out games in their first playoff series in 40 years. Here’s a look at the matchups: FORWARDS: The Bruins have… Read More →

Thoughts: 1) We will have our first Live Playoff Chat of the series Thursday at 1 p.m. Be there. Or else. 2) Somebody mentioned to me about Mr. Jacobs, you know, the Bruins owner who was probably the single most responsible person for giving you fans the finger during his… Read More →
