    Lovely stuff.

    That takes care of Tamp’s 18 in a row. So what’s next?

    Vasilevsky excuses, ESPN? Get the byfuglien over it! He’s down 0-2.

    Too bad Kakko didn’t wind up with the winner. That would’ve been great

    Kakko’s a ghost

    ESPN sucks. Why is SVP doing the interviewing? I think this is the first year he’s been there when they’ve had hockey. That’s how long ago they had it.

    That was one hell of a playoff game. Hardly any play stoppages for most of the 2nd & 3rd periods. I don’t think all three tv timeouts were used up either period. Fast, fast game!

    I’d actually prefer Braun out there at the end. You need solid D and he is less likely to make a mistake than Miller.

    Matinee on Sunday in Tampa. Must win for Bolt?

    MUST AT LEAST get a split in Tampa. But funny enough, I think they need to sweep. Here’s my logic- Tampa has championship DNA. I DO NOT want to give them even an ounce of hope….

    BTW, IF….and it’s a BIG IF we take this series, you just KNOW the excuse will be “Tampa missing Braden Point was a big factor here…..”

    Tampa was good the 2nd half of the game. Next game is huge! LGR!

    Boys in blue put in a pretty dominant performance .. the clown show call on Reaves was the reason it was close at end

    I heard its been a little too cool and wet in NY for Tampa. They need time to acclimate

    I’m over losing the No. 1 for Copp. Hopefully they can sign him and it winds up being the last pick in the draft.

    Tampa trying to get more days off? Something about a tropical storm?

    AzzDancers fans are beginning to resign themselves that the Rangers are an excellent team, and can play and excel at any style of hockey game.

    Thanks a lot, Rangers fans! Don’t you realize you almost lost the game for us? You can’t start that nonsense until the game is WAY out of reach. Sheesh!

    Hey GG – contnue playing with matches and gasoline and keep putting K’Andre out there late.

    Good morning!

    Other than that last 2 minute push, along with “sitting back” a bit too much in the 2nd half of period 2, our boys managed that game VERY well. If we take game 3…. the series is done as far as I’m concerned bc it’ll show 1 of 2 things: 1) We’re legitimately the better of the 2 teams. 2) They’re spent or aren’t willing to do what it takes to get back into it.

    Either way, lets go down there and shock the world!

    PS: The “Igor’s Better” chant needs to stop.
