    Well that just sucks. But with a three goal lead, it was the Leafs game to lose. ...and they did.

    Now I have to go to my room and cry.

    Heartbreaking. I'm glad they took the Bruins all the way to game 7 OT though. Blowing a 3-goal lead like that, on the other hand....

    In other news, my Rangers are up FOUR to ZERO!

    On the bright side, I will no longer be meeting my friends at the pub to watch playoff games and will, therefore, eat healthier. Playoffs are hell on my diet.

    Good luck to the Rangers!

    The Leafs did more than pass expectations when you look at the whole series. They obviously blew an amazing 3rd period lead. Oh well.

    Can lead to rioting in the streets. Hopefully the police are out in full force on Yonge.

    Thanks for the sympathy guys. I appreciate it. But as a longtime Leafs fan, the sad reality is that I'm used to being led on by the Leafs only to end up full of disappointment. My love for the Leafs is the most disfunctional relationship that I've ever had. I don't think anyone expected them to go to game 7; after a 9 year dry spell it was a fun ride and hopefully the beginning of a better era.

    GO SENATORS!!!

    Rangers play tactically much better game than Caps. Swarming defence, shots blocking and great speed in attack...well deserved lead.

    Thrilled to see Ovechkin have such a horrible playoff.

    Dismayed that it comes at the hands of the Rangers.

    First road game 7 victory in NYR history.

    Hail to the king.

    B2B shutouts for Henry.

    Lets Go Rangers.

    Congrats to Scott, Scott and Obscured, for the Rangers game 7 victory! I didn't see the game, but it's sure a pretty looking final score.

    Sorry to yank the thread form being the Eastern half of the NHL discussion thread but this Kings/Sharks series looks like a pretty entertaining one. I guess the Ducks and Kings might have been a little more intense because of the proximity but this one might prove to be even that more intense. Two different styles going against each other.

    ^That about sums it up. I'm still hurting this morning. But I can't deny that the better team won. The consolation, if you think about it, is that in a couple of the games it took pulling the goalie and having that extra man on the ice for Boston to score.

    My hope is that these young players learned a thing or two and will be that much hungrier next year.

    I wish there were more West fans to post in here. I like hearing about hockey from all over. Unfortunately for you, most people in this thread have teams East. SJ/LA...Both big teams and SJ has a LOT to prove with all their playoff chokes...should be a physical one.

    I can't remember the last time I was comfortable watching a Ranger playoff game! My blood pressure was actually normal for most of those 2.5 game hours I'm real surprised how dominant we were in the game...all lines. I thought for sure it was going to be an OT nail-biter.

    Sorry to my Toronto friends...that must have SUCKED!

    I just scored tickets to the Red Wings / Blackhawks game on Monday night. It is going to be a early fathers day present for my dad. I have never been to a playoff game before, so I am excited. The atmosphere in Detroit is electric during the playoffs, especially with our cross lake rivals as our opponenets. I am stoked!

    Steve - you're going to have a blast. Playoff hockey is one of the greatest things in life to witness in person.
