Yes, game 1 is Saturday at 1. Game 2 looks like Monday night at 8. I am guessing right now 3 & 4 will be Wednesday and Friday nights at the garden.
Locked in for game 4, whenever it is...LOL. $347.50 per ticket...up from $240 for the Pens tickets...and $200 for the Flyers tickets. Please don't be 3-0 Habs...LOL.
I assume you got two tickets? that's without Fees? LOL... around 700 just to see a playoff hockey game. What a joke the ticket prices have become.
if you're willing to pay for them you shouldn't complain about the price. I would not pay, but that's just me.
That price is all in. Got 3 tickets. Going with buddies, so $347.50 is my total output. Funny that I spent like $800 on tickets for 3 playoff games.
Chuck, back in the 80's and 90's, I used to get into every game for almost free. We had an usher/ticket taker, whatever you want to call him that we would go to and we would take half a stub from a previous game along with a $10 bill and hand it to him and then go stand behind the blues. The 7th Game of the Cup in 94 cost us $20.
Thanks, Chuck. It is worse than I thought. No wonder Canadians are very confident. IT IS TIME TO CHANGE HISTORY between these two teams. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RANGERS.
Shocker...Burnside picked against us AGAIN...3 for 3. He picked the Flyers in 6, the Pens in 6, and now the Habs in 6...LOVE IT.... Great comment: Prediction These two teams are similar in so many ways, it's difficult to separate what might be the difference. The Rangers' line of Benoit Pouliot, Derick Brassard and Mats Zuccarello has been dynamic but Max Pacioretty, David Desharnais and Brendan Gallagher, united midway through the Bruins' series, has helped take pressure off the Canadiens' top line. For us we'll go with the team with home-ice advantage. Canadiens in 6 Take the team with home-ice advantage...to win it on the road...LOL.
I think the key to the whole series is game 1. Here's why. The Habs are coming off a series in which they beat their ultimate rival. Even by Subban's statements last night, you could tell they are feeling it. We need to take advantage of their glory of knocking off the Bruins. Get em while their still thinking about the Bruins. We are in really good shape if we win Game 1 and that I think is the easiest game to steal there.
CONFIDENCE......there are so many twists and turns, not only within a game but throughout a series. At this point, Montreal has its starry history to fall back on. The Rangers are just starting their own after 88 years in the NHL. IT IS TIME. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RANGERS.
I'm seeing a lot of Montreal picks so far. You would think we are playing the 80's Oilers. And I guess I missed when Price was much better than Hank. This will be an interesting series. I will be curious to see who the ESPN guys pick. So far Burnside picked against us in 6 for the 3rd time. Hopefully this motivates us even a little more. We are playing the hockey gods from Montreal.
Interesting that MSL is going back to MTL now to play, we'll see if that has any negative or inspirational effect on him. Lundqvist is better than Price but Price dosen't let in many against us, whereas they usually find a way to get to HL, especially up there. The PP will be the difference to me in this series.
No worries Chuckles, I'm excited for the opportunity they have and the mindset of the team, it's a tight knit group. Just the chance to root for them into late May is always awesome. Would love to see them beat those annoying fans even more than the team.lol
As long as the city of Montreal isn't in our heads and we don't implode up there, Hank especially, I think we have a great shot to win. We'll see, but I fully expect a very good series that can go either way. Neither team is a huge fav here. Close series on paper...very close. And I would take Hank over Price as well. At this point in time though you would think Price is better based on "expert" comments. Funny stuff IMO.
He's not a better goalie individually that Lundqvist, but when you factor in the way the Ranger O performs against Price I think that factors in maybe to their thinking. Plus he certainly hasn't played well there as we know. They tend to get the Rangers running rampant in that building with the crowd so they have to manage that.
Well, let me see that in the playoffs. Going in goalie is edge us IMO. Not a huge edge, but edge. Hank is with Quick and Rask. To me Price is in the next group just a little behind. BUT it is funny how most act as if edge in goal Price. Go back 3 weeks and Price was letting in soft goals early against TB. Here is one spot I think Montreal is getting overrated. TB was not good and was missing their goalie. Not a good team. Boston is of course great, but truthfully that is such a huge rivalry that talent level/talent difference doesn't matter as much since everyone is in high gear from the start, especially the Habs as the underdog. So them beating the Bruins, while great, isn't the normal lesser team beating the big bad Bruins. The Habs know how to play them. The Habs always play well against the Bruins regardless of talent. The Habs were the Bruins worst nightmare. Let's see if they play at that level against not a huge rival who gets them crazy fired up, a team they simply know how to play against, and raises their game at least a few levels simply due to the crazy rivalry that exists. Let's see if they play to that level against the Rangers...not the Bruins.
Hank is a differnt animal in the posy season.his "failures" in the past in Montreal to me means nothing. How many games in Montreal were 100% his and only his fault. Regular season means shit. We are not playing in Ottawa the night before and playing the islanders the next day. This is about one team one team to study one team to beat. Ill take Hank! Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk
I'd give the slight edge to Montreal just because Price isn't that far below Lundqvist in the pecking order, maybe in the next 4-5 below the big 3. Both teams are playing well though the Rangers had a bad spell there for a few games. PP and managing MTL's quickness are the keys, plus finding a way to get a win or two up there. There is a good amount of history between the franchises so that adds something. Our defenseman and HL need to bring their A game for sure, and the PP needs to be at least average. Get it done!!
