I think both Quick and Lundqvist are potential Vezina-level netminders (IIRC Lundqvist *did* win in '12, the same year that Quick won the Conn Smythe), not this season of course, but both can potentially lights-out an opponent on any given night. I think the difference is the firepower Quick has in front of him. I think the addition of Gaborik has been major for LA.
It's a spoonerism
Whether or not he's allowed to play, I am praying we don't have to put Carcillo back in the lineup. I think only an injury or another suspension (I'm talking to you Benoit Pouliot and John Moore: cut out the dumbass dirty stuff) would get Carcillo back into the lineup. I really don't see this series getting "dirty" enough to warrant his insertion into the lineup.Originally Posted by Scott Bails
I'd stick with the lineup that won Game 6 against the Habs. It was the Rangers' best and most complete game in years (perhaps decades). The only possible change would be replacing Diaz with Moore when the latter is able to come back from suspension.

Like him or not, Dan Carcillo has been a pretty solid Ranger. He was great in the Flyer series. If someone goes down and he's put in the line-up, I'm ok with it.
I'll be cheering like mad, but agree the Rangers have to play every game like Game 6 against the Habs if they want to have a chance. Gonna be tough to pull this off. I like being the underdog though

Rangers in 7. Hank steals at least two games, wins Conn Smythe.
Rangers need to steal tonight's game. Maybe catch the Kings by surprise. They need 1 of 2 in LA and tonight's the night to do it.

Rangers in 3.

As the overwhelmed Kings just throw in the towel, after being outscored 24-2 in the first 3 games?

You guys in the US probably didn't see this, but they interrupted the hockey game to ask people living in Moncton NB to stay in their homes as Police search for a gunman who has so far shot and killed three RCMP officers and injured two others. There is nothing funny about this, but only in Canada would they think to interrupt a hockey game to reach the public with such an important message.
I love this country! And bless those officers and their families. I hope they catch this guy before he can hurt anyone else.
Because shootings in the U.S. are so commonplace these days.

Ruh roh, Rangers. That 3rd period was a wee bit lopsided
If we don't play 60 mins. like the 1st period, this series is over. Still, the game went to OT (thanks Henrik!) and had a chance to steal one.
"Who would have thought a whale would be so heavy?" - Moe Sizlak
IMO, it was the game the Rangers had to steal. Kings caught off-guard by Rangers speed in the 1st, and the Rangers had the lead. Then, things settled into what I was expecting.
I'll stick with my original prediction of Kings in 5, but I'd like to see the rangers find a way to prevail; despite knocking us out. We could at least say that we lost to a team that nobody beat in the playoffs this year...

The Kings were just awful for about 1.5 periods; but thankfully got the job done.

Yeah...Rangers seemed to take their foot off the gas way too early. If they can capture that first period intensity for longer than 20mins it should be a great series.
Also, seem rather subdued in the building last night at the beginning.
Please don't ask questions, just use google.

The Rangers should have stuck the fork in the Kings in the 2nd period; but they didn't and LA cleared their heads just enough to recover.

So the Pens hire Jim Rutherford as GM. Thought Rutherford was gonna take some time off and "remain in the Canes front office" . . . . . . hmmmmmm. Looks like he'll have to sell his stake in the Canes.
Names mentioned/rumoured/discussed regarding the Canes coaching job: Kevin Dineen, Jacques Martin, Bylsma, Ulf Samuelsson.
Hired on to work for Mr. Bill Cox, a-fixin' lawn mowers and what-not, since 1964.

Tough one to swallow last night. Rangers played a damn good game but were butt slammed by a goal that should not have been. Sure you can say no excuse for blowing another lead, but that 3rd goal was text book interference and took all the wind out of their sails. So disappointed. Hope we can even it up at home.
"Who would have thought a whale would be so heavy?" - Moe Sizlak
I agree that the goal should not have been allowed but I'm afraid I can't agree that the Rangers couldn't recover from it. But no question the goal should've been waived off.

Generally speaking in the playoffs, the refs have let all sorts of sh!t vs. goalies go 'unpunished'; so I definitely understand the frustration. The Kings are going to consistently come back; its their M.O. The blueshirts HAVE TO be mentally tougher if they want to get back into this series.

Put up or shut up time for the Rangers, for sure . . . . . . I want seven games!

You were in PR? You should have given me a heads up! I would've gone down and had a beer...could care less who you cheer for. A wise choice to stay away from pretty much most of those bars if you're a vocal fanKlonker: I was in Pearl River at Bin 41 on central ave watching the game.
