    Can't be too disappointed even after last night's game...win at home and this is over in 6 games. I like the quick turnaround after a loss (and a bad one at that), no time to dwell on the poor performance, plus it worked out well in the last series! Hank had a fantastic game last night, hopefully he can bring it again tonight. Everyone else has to bring their game to his level. Find a way to score on the PP early tonight!!!!

    I agree 100%. I like the back to back for us. Being home gives us an edge over them I believe. And home ice is important. We have won 12 of 17 and 7 of 9 playoff games at MSG. That is big.

    We need a big win to get back on track tonight. Crowd should be crazy and lift us.

    They need to skate and hit tonight. Too much standing around last night.

    I think the back to back hurts us, against a skilled team that can move the puck against tired bodies. Just my two cents but they really could've helped themselves by taking the bull by the horns in the 1st period. The crowd could give them a boost to get it done but I think Pitt wins by a few tonight.

    They could've had Pitt mentally on the ropes if they'd found a way last night, but now they have momentum and second life. Plus going up 2-0 you could've lived with it if they'd gotten beat handily tonight and still had the lead 2-1. Whatever, like you said, just get it done.
