    Ranger history.....nothing comes easy. Even '94 SC.. CS went 7 games.
    Only the Rangers can make a 3-0 lead whittle down because of hockey
    stupidity.....responding to Philly BS.

    I'd like to see Justin St.Pierre make that same call at Montreal against the
    Canadiens vs NY Rangers. Those fans would stone him. He should be banned
    from future playoff games. Besides it would never happen...you just cannot
    take the French out of a Canadian.

    And last but very least....Rick Nash...a playoff wuss. Nuff said.

    The quick whistle was a complete disgrace. Especially when the ref was clearly out of position to correctly call anything in close. I'm forgetting past history because if we were told game six would be an elimination game for the Flyers we would be very happy.

    Exactly Mess. We ALL would have signed on for a 3-2 lead heading into game 6. All we can ask for. Now take care of business. And if we do get by the Flyers I think the 2nd round will be a little easier for us.

    That was an extremely quick whistle, at least take an extra second to see where things stand. The first 5 min will be key since they will come out all fired up. If they can withstand that and maybe even get ahead the floodgates could open.

    Yeah, that was a joke whistle. What can you do. We won so it didn't hurt us.

    Could turn into game 7 at the Caps last season IF we withstand the first 5 minutes or so, and can score first.

    Philadelphia will come out swinging (Physically) on Tuesday, so the Rangers better have their smart hats on. No stupid retaliation penalties, let the Flyer's knock themselves out in game 6.

    Huge key jam. We have been taking too many stupid retaliation penalties the past few games, and it has to stop. Let it go guys and just win the game. No need to prove some point by taking a stupid penalty. That is exactly what they want. They are the team that needs game 6 or they are done, so let them take the stupid desperate penalties.

    Would really serve us well to win game 6. Back to back for game 7 coming off an L is not a place we want to be. A lot of pressure on us in that situation.

    I don't want to see another game 7. I wouldn't have said this early in the year, but this team is just plain better than the Flyer's. Does that mean they win? It should ...

    I agree we are better jam, and I think we have shown that, but it doesn't mean much if we don't win. While I think we would win a game 7 at MSG, who wants to deal with that quick back to back, where anything can happen. A bad bounce, a hot game by Mason, a big game by one of their talented forwards and we are done. Want no part of that to be honest.

    I expect the BJ's/Pens series to go 7, so let's get an extra day of rest also by finishing in 6.
