Looking like devils get to be dismantled by the kings, rather than the rangers

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

This Stanley Cup Final will be great with either team from the East in it. I think the Rags are done. They just seemed to hit a wall.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Captain Cally needs to come out and make his garuntee.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Really starting to love this Devils team, especially Parise, Devils-Kings final would be really fun to watch.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Fuck the Devils. Fuck NYR even harder. Go Kings.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Kings are the worst. Rangers better pull it out. I don't want to see Fatso win another one.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

I can't root for any team left. This is sad.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Them be fightin' words :) ... Ant, any official response from the NJD camp?
I feel your pain, buddy. Believe me. Just watch it for the hockey from here on out, it's surprisingly refreshing when you watch it just for the sake of the game without any homer glasses on.

Believe me, I'm getting used to it. :o

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Bucci brought up a good point in his blogumn that I also thought about last night... I hope Alex Ovechkin is watching Ilya Kovalchuk right now. The dude isn't playing at nearly the level talent-wise that he was playing at five years ago, but his heart has grown leaps and bounds. Ilya Koval-grinch. The guy clearly wants to win, and that's refreshing to see. I wouldn't be surprised if he's injured.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

As devastating as last night was, I'm supremely confident that if the rangers can duplicate that effort Friday, they will force a game 7.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

I know for a fact Kovy had a groin pull in the Flyers series. Don't know if it healed.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Yeah, he's definitely not at 100%. But nice to see him playing as hard as he is.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

I can't believe the parallel to the '94 playoffs with NJ. Games are played on the same days and the outcomes for each game have been the same, so far.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Are we going to get a Messier prediction before Game 6?

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

And he was on the ice in the final minute last night of a one goal game.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Let's go RANGERS! 1994 repeat!!

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

I'm so over the whole "Devils have no fans" bit. :lol

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

It's amazing what a change of scenery did to Kovalchuk. He has completely revamped his game, and is now one of the most reliable forwards on the Devils in all three zones. His hockey IQ is ridiculous.

Callahan is no Messier :p

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Been that way all year. DeBoer loves him, he was being double-shifted on the fourth line on the GWG last night, it was his forecheck that set up that goal.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

It's not that they don't have fans, it is that a lot of their fans only care when the team is on the verge of winning something. My friend who has season tickets says all the time that he hates when all the fans who have not been there all year show up to games in the final round and cause all the problems and have the biggest mouths.

The people that have been there all year have been pretty respectful through this series, but all the people who I didn't even know followed hockey are suddenly texting me shit, facebooking me shit and pretending they have waited "9 long years to get back to the finals." Fans like that drive me nuts.

I even had one person Facebook me "one more time beating the Rangers and the Cup is ours! Go Devs!" I mean really, this person didn't even know there was another round to play...


As far as tonight goes, big game. Think both teams are capable of winning it. Think the Devils need to win tonight to clinch because if the Rangers win game 6 I believe they would take game 7 too. Let's go Rangers!!

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Welcome to the world of being a sports fan. Those people aren't leaving

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

stressed about tonight. i need 12 beers. pronto.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

:thumbsup I know, just never gets any easier to handle haha. I feel good about tonight. No reason not to. I am not a player, it is up to them to get the job done, if they don't there is nothing I could have done as a fan. Hardest part of being a fan only.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

So last night I rewatched Flyers/Bruins game 7 in 2010. Got a little dusty...

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Only 12???
Good luck. Hoping for a good game.
And who doesn't like game 7s?

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Time for Captain America to show he's money.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

THE DOMINATOR!!: http://www.csnphilly.com/hockey-phil...042&feedID=695

Hey, he's only 47...

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Unfortunately I was at that game. I was also at the Bruins Canes Game 7 the year before as well. :BANG

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

At the end they were showing the crowd. I don't think I've seen a more sick crowd in my life. Kids were crying, hearts were broken... it was as if Batman was dead.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

i'll drink more than 12 if we lose.

i love game 7's, undefeated so far.
