this is a slam dunk, home run, fantasy football era of sports. all of these sports are filled with controversy. whether its steroids, dog fighting, strip club shootings or referess (however its spelled) betting on games. so far controversy only helps these sports. and that is what makes hockey different. besides the gambling ring in phoenix there is no controversy in hockey the nhl is one of the cleanest sports. hockey suffers in this country because nobody sees the beauty of the game. all they want to see is a home run type play. they don't know the beauty of a good penalty kill or or how exciting a 1-0 game can actually be. hockey was at its last high peak in 1994. coincidence, i don't think so. the rangers along with some help from guys like crosby and ovechkin can bring hockey back to what it used to be. wouldn't it be something to see the rangers vs penguins in the east finals? hopefully sports fans can look past home runs, over analyzied football and a sport filled with cry babies and criminals... basketball, to appreciate what a series that could be.
