I'm sorry, man. It doesn't look good.

Nice. Lol.

I always try to be a realistic fan of my teams. I have to admit that I've allowed myself to be sucked in to believing they could win this thing, especially with them jumping out to 2-0 leads in both games. Let's face it. They were 12th in the league in points this year. Even if they could pull this off, it certainly doesn't make them the best team in hockey. They have some pretty glaring holes, not the least of which is the lack of one or two true goal scorers. Now the 93-94 team was the best team, hands down. They ran the tables from start to finish that season.

Well, I hope they at least make a decent showing at this point. Of course, do too well and MSG management is unlikely to make needed changes. We'll see what happens tonight!

I hope they can at least make a series of it.

Listen....I hear the fat lady warming up for her performance.

It was fun while it lasted.

I know the feeling. Sorry, buddy.

Well...we certainly pulled that game out of our collective ass last night!

At least it isn't a sweep.

I'm thinking hockey ends tonight. Of course, I'm hopeful it doesn't, but...The Kings are spending far too much time in control of the game and the puck. There's no way the Rangers steal another game if that continues.

Hockey. They still play that game? I used to watch it all the time...until the strike. You know the one that lasted years...haven't had the urge to watch since.

Truth be told, I'm still not back to where I was pre-strike. I certainly don't have the same feeling about this team that I did about the 93-94 team, but that may be for other reasons too. I do love the sport, though. Assholes!
