Amid all the World Cup hoopla the Stanley Cup Finals continue. Great game, real edge of the seat stuff. Rangers really gave it everything, but it wasn’t enough. Well done the LA Kings on winning The Stanley Cup and to MVP Justin Williams.
Well it took until the fourth game but the Rangers finally got their mojo back and won 2-1. Lundqvist with some spectacular saves, definitely MOTM. And one very lucky near miss in the last few minutes where Lundqvist failed to stop the puck but fortunately it stopped millimeters short of the...
That’s twice the Rangers were 2 goals ahead and twice they have lost in overtime. I watched the Rangers / Kings game in a bar in NYC rammed with Rangers supporters – amazing atmosphere. Next game is Monday at MSG with home advantage for the Rangers, about time they had a bit of luck.
It may have taken 20 years but we're through to the Stanley Cup Final. Marvelous scenes at MSG. Go Rangers !! This is the toughest sport for play offs, Rangers certainly earned their place.
Huge game for the Rangers and they rose to the occasion, beating the Canadiens 3-2 and going 3-1 in the series. And it had to be Marty St Louis getting the winner in OT. The Canadiens defense was poor letting MSL nip in behind them several times - also the Canadiens failed to make use of the 8...
Had hoped we might have gone 3-0 up, but not to be. Canadiens take the 3rd game of the Eastern Conference Final 3-2 in OT, with the Rangers 2-1 ahead in the series.
Exciting game though with the Canadiens getting their second goal 3 minutes from the end of the 3rd period and the Rangers...
Cracking start by the Rangers in the Eastern Conference Final - beating the Canadiens 7-2 in Montreal. Managed to catch the 3rd period on TV. Nobody could have seen this coming especially with the Rangers history against the Canadiens. Alain Vigneault has done more in 1 year than Tortorella did...
And we’re through to the East Conference Final against the Canadiens or Bruins !! Rangers beat the Penguins 2-1 in the 7th game taking the series 4-3. Not bad considering at one time the Penguins were 2nd favorites to win the Stanley Cup at 3/1 with the Rangers rank outsiders at 40/1. Lundqvist...
After the disappointing defeat by Derby and the rumours about Oscar Garcia nice to see my adopted team continue their amazing comeback. Rangers were 3-1 down in the series against the Penguins two games ago but following tonight’s 3-1 win they’ve got it back to 3-3. Lundqvist played a blinder...
Faced with elimination the Rangers had to win this 5th game, and they did in style with a convincing 5-1 win over the Penguins bringing the series back to 3-2. I'm always impressed with the stamina of these play off teams - imagine Brighton playing Derby 7 times with a day in between games ! I...
Agreed - Rangers had a strong start in the first round of play offs but they just didn't turn up for the last few games in this round. Gotta win the next one .......
Go Rangers ! Marvelous scenes at MSG. We made the most of the home advantage and beat the Flyers 2-1 and take the series 4-3. Next .....the Pittsburgh Penguins
I'm hoping the Rangers do better this year - but not holding my breath. Good to see Martin Brodeur get a good send off after the Devils beat the Bruins 3-2, as this could be his last game. I've always followed the Rangers but still keep an eye on the Devils.
