The Second season is the best season!
My usual horse came up lame this year, so I am not sure who I am rooting for.
I know more who I am rooting AGAINST…
NHL Playoffs 2014

I hope they get swept, it would help Montreal’s case as the team out of the east final that had the best chance to make a series out of it (or at least win one game).
-
Can’t play the what-if game in sports. It’s why I’m not even thinking about an imaginary scenario where the Rangers won either of the first two games. Besides, Montreal and New York play nearly identical styles that would have struggled against a big Kings team that can skate.
-
If Montreal was playing, the Kings would win the series in 3 games without need for 4th.

Fk you IL, you fking piece of dog s**t!!… just kidding, you’re probably right :wink:.

I’ll be the first to admit the Rangers were lucky to win that game, especially since Stralman and Stepan made the biggest saves of the game. As hollow as a win down 3-0 is, it felt good to have some lucky breaks go the Rangers way.
It seems to me every time Dan Girardi turns the puck over it results in a Kings goal.

At least they were playing hard and refusing to give up, if they played the opposite… at least one of those pucks on the goal line goes in.
-
For the second near goal if that same situation developed ten minutes earlier the puck probably trickles in since there would be fewer ice shavings built up. Hard to imagine the Kings losing again but I can’t imagine them playing any better than they did in the 3rd period, so if they slip just a little that could give the Rangers a shot.

People: Kings let them win that so they can win on home court and have parade on weekend, rather than Thursday.
Don’t get any hope.

That’s how I would do it.

It’s called home ice in hockey.

Yeah, IL. Get basketball off the brain. We are talking about a man’s sport now.

The Rangers have played much better on the road all year, including the playoffs, so whatever.

Well see told you.

Congratulations to the LA Kings for their Stanley Cup Championship, and thanks to everyone here for making this such a great discussion thread.

Agreed. Look forward to next year. Maybe we can do one for the reg season.

Suspiciously absent from the NBA thread…

Absolutely, but you really need to consider creating a twitter account… it may not have been created for sports fans, but it might as well have been.

But not here.

I have been on and off of Facebook twice and that was plenty. Social media really doesn’t have any draw for me.

Yep, a double OT clincher in which the Rangers hit a few posts (Kings too, to be fair) is exactly how Daryl Sutter drew it up. The Kings were the better team but winning three OT games in a series is pretty rare.
