In other news, Baby Wings have just eliminated the Baby Leafs in the playoffs this year, Ah Yeah!!!!!!
Guilty. I probably also mispronounced misnomer at one point too. Oh, and also exposed my complete ignorance of the Red Wings by claiming that Lindstrom has been retired for more than 1 year.
I was right, last night did end the Rangers' unbeaten streak in games where they lead after two periods.
They had not lost in regulation in their last 99(!) straight games in which they held the lead during the second intermission.
The Rangers had also been 16-0-0 during the regular season when leading after two.
The Rangers' last such loss was on February 4, 2010 against the Washington Capitals.

Ugh man. A week ago we had the Bruins 90 seconds from elimination. And now they're close to sweeping the Rangers. I wish we had advanced

And Smash actually thinks we would have been swept by the Rangers? What a fool.

I wish you had advanced too.
Don't think you guys would have fared much better against the Leafs

The Leafs and Rangers have fared pretty evenly against each other

I don't think we would get swept by them.
You didn't like my shoutout?I realized I could fast-forward.
Then I realized I could close that shit. Someone called me a fucking idiot. Someone else (Quick, obv) said he made a gif for me last season -- thx
fuck you guys
edit: HAH! someone just mispronounced schadenfreude.
I'm just jokin around man, you're the best Kings-Age member by far buddy.

Rangers are in a tough place, even before the second season started. I remember someone laughing at me on this board earlier in the season when I said that the Islanders were the better New York based team.
That being said, I doubt the Leafs sweep the Rangers in any scenario (doubt the Bruins do as well). Reimer isn't set up to go toe-to-toe with elite goaltenders on a consecutive basis. They probably would have won though. Rangers are just misfiring on almost every cylinder.
Kovulchuk was the one I thought of as well (even he had his dips...), and Crosby as well, but if injuries keep following these guys around, those multi years will be wasted.
You should have seen the last guy!
Yeah, pretty much. If you look at the ways we've lost these games in this series, too, it's clear that even a tiny bit of luck would have this series in a completely different place right now. Game 1 was only lost on a fantastic play in overtime off an interception of a pass that works 9 times out of 10, Game 3 was lost by a weird as shit bounce that Lundqvist could do little about. This could easily be a 2-1 Rangers series lead with virtually no difference at all in how play has proceeded, even with the weak efforts like last night's, just with one or two bounces going the other direction.
That's hockey sometimes.

To be fair, isn't he also the only one?

Luongo's contract sucks, but his play hasn't sucked.
Kovalchuk is still playing well but his contract will cost the Devils a first round pick in next year's draft. And that will probably be a lottery pick given their current roster. I can't imagine him still playing in 2025 so there will likely be some recapture penalties down the road.

Don't worry... we sent him to the island.

Only Grade A douchebags throw milk crates on the ice like Rask did in the AHL.
He was pretty average this year. With that being said, I'm sure he'd be better as the clear #1 on a different team...at least for a couple more years.

Lolongo to the Pens or Isles makes the most sense at this point

I have this sick feeling that we're going to get back-end swept. This could just be me chicken-littling, and I'd love it if the Kings proved me wrong.
The first period last night looked bad, but the Kings put themselves in that situation by giving up two power-plays to the Sharks. They really need to stop taking so many penalties.
Lots of tidbits on the Sharks from Friedman's latest 30 thoughts Acid :

Has there been any buzz about Washington or Minnesota, or even Colorado? They seem like places where he could have a big impact.

I can't imagine the Isles taking on another long term goalie contract. Even if they buy out DP this off season.
Yeah, pretty awesome right?
Your incessant bitching is fun to read. Maybe get on the podcast instead of just talking about getting on

I think Washington seem to be well off with Holtby unless they want him to be behind Luongo for a couple years. But even then I don't think his contract is worth Holtby being backup for a few years when he seems like a capable starter.
Alright, now the Alan Wake Collector's Edition and American Nightmare are available for $1.00. Still seems a bit steep. Thoughts?

I don't think there's anyway we could be under the cap with Luongo unless we traded 2 guys on big contracts away.
Don't think Minny could take on that contract and Holtby is doing great for the Caps. Really seems like the Isles are his best possible destination.
