I'm on it. I'm thinking that they need to cycle the puck a lot more and add some dump n' chase. You know, something new.

Also, this PP really needs more Boyle and Mitchell on it. Kreider and Hagelin are too fast. I need someone who will juggle the puck like a one armed clown with cerebral palsy before turning it over.

Yeah, 8pm for an east coast game is ridiculous.

8pm sucks for us? How about those wonderful fans over in Europe. They have a hard time watching the games and then going to work AFTER the game is over, that the extra hour is harmful for them. A pregame nap might be best for those fans. I feel for you guys.

Yes, true. I therefor look forward to game 3 saturday 1 p.m (8 p.m local time here). Perfect time for hockey and vodka

“New York doesn’t give me any special [feeling]. I don’t even go into New York,” Brodeur said yesterday.

Jersey Girl · 05-14-2012, 08:49 AM

LOL he does go on to praise Hank right after saying that...but he does it in his own sideways way, of course.

He'll say something nice, then follow it up with 'he's a pretty good goalie'.

Agreed. I was in Europe 2 weeks ago and I have a whole new respect for fans who live overseas. I tried to stay up and watch the games but it was insanely difficult. I'm not sure how all these NHL fans in Europe can function on a daily basis if they watch almost every game. Kudos to them, they are truly diehard fans.

RangersAM99 · 05-14-2012, 08:53 AM

all 8pm games except for one wtf

nevesis · 05-14-2012, 08:55 AM

What is the big deal about 8pm games? I like it. Gives a different feel, and makes it more of a show type of feeling. Hard to explain I guess.

Lets do this boys, don't let up. Take it to them hard.

****ING WIN.

YetAnotherNorwegian · 05-14-2012, 08:57 AM

LGR!

Come on guys, make this day just a little bit better. The 22 year old centre back on my favorite soccer team here in Norway was found dead on a construction site this morning after being missing for two days. I need a win now!

I guess they want to get that coming-home-from-work-at-5pm on the west coast crowd...NBC gotta milk it.. I want MSG!

You'd have to think that Finals games would be late (9pm) for the sheer fact that you have a west coast fanbase with a horse in the race who wants to be able to see games at around 6pm or later...

No complaints from us Aussies. Puck drop at 10am. No better way of starting the day with a Blueshirt win over the Devils!

LGR!

Conference finals against the Devils. **** just got real.

GregSirico · 05-14-2012, 09:36 AM

I hate the Devils more than any other team in hockey. Is it 8:00 yet?

He doesn't go because he's not welcome.

redbranch · 05-14-2012, 09:42 AM

I could care less about the Devils. Just another obstacle in our way. Shove 'em out and keep rolling.

It would be really nice to get a strong win here though. Get the lead early, and then build on it. Watching a playoff game without the last minute scramble in front of our net would be nice for the blood pressure
