Since 1995 - Devils...3 Stanley Cups.

Since 1940 - Rangers...2 Stanley Cups.

The Rangers aren't in yet. I'm looking forward to next Saturday's game.

Let's go Caps!

pittsburghhh! i see crosby coming back and scoring the game winning goal to win the stanley cup. no doubt about it

It's going to be interesting to see how Washington fares in this year's playoffs. Last couple years, they lived by a fast transition game, scoring tons of goals, and then their defense was crummy and they lost in the playoffs. This year, they focused on defense and have had their best defensive season since the late 90's. But some of their D men are nursing injuries and the offensive production has tapered off. After gambling this whole season on changing from an offensive juggernaut to a playoff-ready defensive squad, will it pay off?

After the Bruins embarassing playoff leave last year I hope they get it done this year.

Pittsburgh has to make it through Tampa Bay for Crosby to have a chance at that...and they are saying Crosby won't even be playing in this series. Lightning will take it in 7.

I looked forward to it and enjoyed the outcome as well

Also, don't go talking about the past. That means nothing currently.

We had a terrible season that was made interesting towards the end. The Rangers were at the top of the conference for most of the season and backed in to the playoffs. They are a good playoff team though and always make things interesting. In fact, I'll bet they take Game 1 in Washington. But Lundqvist looked tired on Saturday. He wasn't himself. He's gonna need to stand on his head to get the Rangers through. They are at least a better coached, and far more defensive minded team than they have been in the recent past. But in the Playoffs your best players have to be at their best. Maybe Gaborik will wake up. The loss of Callahan will prove huge especially on the PK. It should be interesting.

I also see Philly going out in 6.

The Rangers always make for a difficult matchup for the Capitals. They're a very physical squad. I hope the Caps win, but I'm thinking 6 games at best.

I honestly have no idea who will take it. The Canucks in Vancouver are like an unstoppable demon of defense. The Bruins in Boston can't stop scoring. Something has to give. Which teams show up?

6MT · 06-14-2011, 01:24 PM

The "Canuckleheads" are the most hated team in hockey.
