Would like to think fiery Patrick Roy manages to get his team to game 6 at least, but didn't look like it last night.

Was watching; Canes despite being down 3-1 were dominating. So I went on Caesars and wagered a little scratch on Canes at 5 to 1 mid 3rd. It worked out, though was shocked about the go ahead goal. Total collapse. We need this series to go 7 with some serious OT time; looking very doubtful.

Mika not getting it done in his own end.

Tell your story walking, loser.

Gratuitous Ching Johnson reference is a good omen.

Bokondji Imama, no relation, Joe...

Losers' point disfigures the standings.

Same stupid fuckin' defensive mistakes over and over.

Barely tested Erisson. 35 foot wristers with nobody in front of the net is a day at the beach for a goalie.

Looks like the team that shat the bed vs. the Devils.

Maloney on radio; too casual, not enough pucks and bodies on net, cute, haven't tested this goalie at all.

Got 1050, not easily fuckers...

Big FUCK YOU to MSG. This time of year,stuck in the office and can't watch until after 4/15. Knicks bump Rangers to 1050, which is pretty much 2 tin cans and string. You would think the Rangers' app would give you a good stream, but MSG, as they did Tuesday on the Rangers' app has ESPN 98.7 carrying.... the Knicks broadcast. Also Tuesday night cut Rangers broadcast short for ...tennis for God knows where while MSG the Ocho carried a full Isles psotgame for another half hour. They have the best team in the NHL and habitually treat their fans like shit. Not bad enough we have 2 announcers rooting for the other team when they're not making a mess of the call. Can't even listen.

ZIb has to look up there for self preservation alone. Understand Laviolette is standing up for his player and working the refs. Added with the Trocheck hit, that's what he suspposed to do as the postseason starts.

Other than when Dave Maloney, Lundqvuist and Boyle are working, the MSG broadcasts are a dumpster fire. The 2 senile guys are rooting for the other team. The defensive play of the game was Adam Pulock. They barely have any idea what's going on. We get the 1st period reading of the press notes and recounting of the imaginary conversations Sam had with the opposing coach that never happened. These guys have been collecting SSI for a while; they're fuckin' bald and gray, which is okay, it happens to everyone. But hair architecture pretending otherwise is beyond ridiculous. Postgame,MSG2 cut to a tennis tournament while MSG the Ocho had an extended Isle postgame including Roy's postgame. Lots of people whining about Valiquette, personally, no issue. Was better when they had Duguay, but Hank and Boyle are very good. But the play by play has to change. For fuck's sake, give the oldsters a nice sendoff and give us Dave Maloney and Kenny Albert next season and be done with this shit. This current product sucks. MSG has the best team in the NHL playing in their building and treat them like an afterthought. MSG covers Knicks bowel movements and lunch orders exahaustively, Rangers treated like shelter dogs.

Doesn't matter. What they do in the playoffs matters. Team blew 2-0 series leads 2 years running. It's hard to do statistically, 2 years back to back, fosters doubt. Could blame Gallant for not having a plan, but again, details. It's why they're getting no respect right now. Gallant what ever his failings wasn't on ice for that, these core guys were. Last night, even against a weak sister, was very positive. Didn't get frustrated by a young goalie styming them for 30 minutes, and then their big guns did the job. Panarin is a beast, Laffy is a player, Troceck a great season, Kreider and Mika appear to be waking up; all good. Like to think the Devils series last May plays out very differently with Laviolette, but that's hopeful speculation. Do know when they get a lead this season they go 1-3-1 alot, even if it's not 100% foolproof. Larry Brooks and everyone elese can write articles all day celebrating crybaby Crosby and badmouthing Ovechkin. It's details that don't matter . 16 wins. Starting in about 2 weeks throught summer. That's it.

Stars being stars tonight.

Frustrating as hell.

Only dangerous Hab on the ice and nobody gets a body on him. Totally outplayed them but nothing to show for it.
