GAME 6: Mtl at TB early in 2nd TB up 1-0 with Kucherov goal. Dale Weiss leads Mtl players with 2 SOG.....if this continues, Mtl loses tonight.
2-0 Bolts. Not surprised if they win. Thought this was their night. Game 7 for them. Need to win this game, and frankly they are simply better than the Montreal Price's.
3-0 TB. That should be that. We need to play like TB did tomorrow night on our home ice. Dominating the Habs...if only the Caps were as bad as Montreal...LOL.
TB NYR would be interesting ECF. Lots of ex Rangers over there. Maybe even St Louis wakes up. Cmon Rangers get it done tomorrow
Now I want the Rangers to win even more (if that's possible). Listening to these idiots on NBCSN I want TB so badly. The Bolts rather play the Rangers. Boyle, Stral, and Cally would give TB a big edge. TB was 3-0 against the Rangers...NEVER mention all those games were played by Dec 1st or earlier (so we haven't play them in over 5 months and we were a totally different team from late Dec on). Never mention TB was the best home team in the NHL, and .500 on the road, and would have home ice over the Caps but not the Rangers. Please win tomorrow night so we can shutup this TB nonsense.
Jones...the extra day off helps the Caps. Helps them get their legs back. The end of the 3rd is a big edge for the Caps.
Not surprising to hear NHL analysts state Washington would benefit more against the Bolts. Caps are enormously tough against speed teams.............yada, yada, yada. They feel Caps will wear down smaller Rangers....it will be a blood bath. I thought it was a hockey game. Yeah, I more convinced that Trotz is the second coming of ( wait for it ).........Tortorella! These guys are like........ pick the team of the moment. It's the Bolts!
This "preview" is like you are watching the Caps station and they were doing a Caps pregame and plan how to win game 7...LOL. My lord this is comical.
If I am the Bolts I rather play the Caps. 1. Home ice. 2. Holtby or Hank? Yeah we know that answer. 3. OV awesome. Backstrom very good. But the Caps team after those guys is not anything special. To close the NBCSN "preview" of the game tomorrow night, 98% talk about the Caps and how they have to play to win it. Interesting that NBCSN turned into the Caps network. Game 1 is Saturday at 1 PM no matter which team wins tomorrow night.
It's the same ol anti NY sentiments. It prevails throughout the NHL. Well, if Rangers win Game 7.....I am hoping Mr. St. Louis can deliver against his ol' mates.
Is Doc doing the game tomorrow? Ahhh, that sucks even more. He sounded like his dog died when the Rangers won game 6.
I'm going to listen to the game on radio tomorrow. Too much bias from Mr. Emrick. Watching tonight's game ....after the first 10 minutes, never thought Canadiens would win this game. It was an easy TB victory. Bolts checked Canadiens into the ice.
1pm start on a Saturday afternoon... Wow so glad they were able to find a slot for this game. I mean it's a huge weekend for English Premier soccer.... Nbc doing a great job promoting the sport.
Good point cage. Also NEVER mentioned MSL playing against his old team potentially. Did make sure to talk about the edge TB has with Boyle, Stral, and Cally for a few minutes...but shockingly never mentioned MSL...LOL. Of course I am leaning in one direction and making more of it that it really was I'm sure, but it was pathetic. Caps this and Caps that. Extra day helps them get their legs back. 3rd period gives Caps big edge in game 7. TB rather play the Rangers. Beat them 3 times (never mentioned Dec 1 was the last time we played). Big edge due to 3 former NYR on TB (never mentioned MSL on the Rangers). Quickly said TB home ice against the Caps but not against the Rangers, but never really talked about how that might be a big edge for TB and a reason they might root for the Caps. Every word they said from a Caps POV, with a little TB POV regarding wanting the Rangers not the Caps (not sure when the Caps became this monster team that is too big and strong for any team to beat). Comical stuff.
Nailed the East exactly. Had the West teams. Way off on games in the Hawks series, but good round. Rangers in 7 over TB. Hawks in 6 over Ducks. Hawks/NYR SCF.
