    I'm just glad the rangers fired him. He basically ran Gaborik out of town. Wish he was still around this year to play under Vigneault. He doesn't seem to be having any trouble scoring goals this post season.

    Gaborik is very streaky, I don't think his scoring has as much to do with who's coaching him as it has to do with when he has whatever it is going. Also, it's not like the trade for Brassard/Dorsett/Moore was bad one.

    Also, I think there's one more thing to add to that Cooke list. :/

    So apparently Chicago hasn't lost a Game 5, 6 or 7 in the last 2 playoffs. Colour me impressed. Minnesota played one hell of a series, though. Didn't expect them to dominate the play for huge parts of the series.

    good thing the pens are out, now I don't have to avoid watching a series because they are so unwatchable

    instead I get to see the Ducks be the penguins jr.
    If I see Selanne run into somebody and fall down with his old man legs and draw a penalty one more time, I'm gonna scream

    LET'S GO RANGERS! lol I really wish I could have been at the game but being at Stout, a Rangers bar right next to the Garden, was good enough.

    Question: With the Penguins eliminated does NBC pack McGuire up in a crate and leave him until next season or will he continue to ruin other team's games?

    They will still send him between the benches to talk shit about the Rangers. I kind of hope they just send him to play caddie for Crosby and Malkin.

    I think Gillis could write a book on how to fuck up an NHL franchise in 3 simple steps. Especially if he got some help from Mike Milbury.

    If you haven't seen it you should watch the ESPN 30 for 30 : Big Shot. That crap made me lol at him and the NHL.

    Gratz to Chicago, I can stop rooting for you now, well unless you play the Ducks, then I'm back on the bandwagon!

    Yeah it was pretty crazy how he did it.

    Don't like the Rangers that much, but they beat the Penguins, and that made them my new best friend till next season.
    Too bad that the Flyers job had to be handled by another team... again. I am so pissed.

    Toxigen still comfortably on top in the bracket challenge, but he does have LA in the cup final, so if they lose tonight there will be enough points to make up to pass him by a number of people. Except me RIP Sharks vs. Pens Cup Final
