    We all would love to see a 5-1 victory in the next one.

    If I was a betting man I would not bet on the Rangers in game 4, again it is what we do, but I sure as hell hope they can break that pattern and take a strangle hold on the series.

    I thought 2-2 back to NY, and I'll stay with that.

    As for Nash he needs to get more aggressive and fight for goals. He gets into that playoff habit of gliding towards the net instead of taking the puck strong.

    I don't like Pittsburgh either but some of that so called rough play is kids stuff compared to years ago. Can't go crazy.

    Go play the game and see where the chips fall. We are clearly the better team, so we SHOULD win, but we also should have won against the Sens, Caps, Devs, Flyers, and Pens in game 2, and yet we lost every time. So I will be hopeful and root like heck for something "easy", but until they do it outside of the Montreal series, I will expect 2-2 back to NY.

    It is nice to see that Chuck has given up on game 4 already. What a positive fan.

    Exactly Mess. This is a VERY tame series. If we win what the F do you think we'll see against the Isles or Caps...about 100 times worse.

    Yes, that is exactly what I said Step...LOL. I have given up on game 4...:).

    What I said was this team does what it does series after series. Until they break that pattern outside of one series I won't expect them to take a 2 game lead.

    Not sure that is giving up on a game, but you do you brother.

    He has to be hurt Mess. He has barely been any threat at all.

    That Crosby line was great in the 3rd. Need to keep our eye on them in game 4. Our best shot in that game is get out fast and get the Pens to doubt themselves. Do that and we can win it. I would love to have some room back to NY.

    He has no points in their last eight games. He looks like complete crap out there. Either hurt or looks like a guy looking for a trade.

    Chuck, tame maybe in terms of brawls but I don't like cindys constant head shots and kunitz chopping people with 2 handers to the back of legs like 2 hander to the back of staals legs right before the only pens goal. I wish we could score more on the pp and then that shit stops

    He plays with no regard for his body. It's hard not to love a guy like that.

    There have been hints he has been hurting. Remember he missed a bunch of games down the stretch. Guy cannot be 100%.

    And I hear you mel, Cindy is who he is, and Kunitz is a cheap punk also, but these are the playoffs. Refs won't call everything. For the most part they were solid, and we need to stay above it and move on. Winning the best answer.
