Lol Sweet! Now I can enjoy this thread again! But just a suggestion, can we change JJR's ban length to "The remainder of the NHL playoffs." If I recall correctly he was banned around this time last year as well? But he was unbanned before the finals were over, and came back to the thread talking with his Bob Cole voice. | ||

Whoever wins is going to need to kick it up a notch or 100 in net or they are in for a rough time | ||

Both those goalies have looked pretty unremarkable and unable to steal games for there club in the west final. Whoever wins is going to need to kick it up a notch or 100 in net or they are in for a rough time Even if Boston won the east I think the west would have won either way, its such an elite division its unreal how strong they are. Vs. NY they will take it in 5, maybe 6 | ||

Whoever wins is going to need to kick it up a notch or 100 in net or they are in for a rough time Quick and Crawford look fine. You have the last two Stanley Cup Champions duking it out. Both teams know how to score and are playing near the top of their games. I think it says more about the teams offenses and their ability to score than it does about the goalies level of play. That series has been the best series of the playoffs and shows why the West is considered the better of the conferences | ||

Although I think a LA - NYR series would be fairly evenly matched, I can't say the same thing for a CHI - NYR series. Chicago has skilled enough players to dismantle the Rangers, and if they can score 3-4 goals every game against LA's defense, they should accomplish the equivalent against the Rangers, and I can't see the Rangers doing the same in return. | ||

LA could struggle defensively because of the Rangers speed, and the Rangers are better defensively than any of the teams that LA has faced in this playoffs, so they won't be able to rely on their offensive zone efficiency which along with their defense has carried them in all their series.

La's dmen are all pretty mobile though. I think Chicago would have much more trouble with the Rangers offense. also apparently DeBoer and the Devils were somewhat open to Brodeur returning. Jesus. If they don't lock up Schneider the second he is elligible this summer they are nuts. | ||

If they don't lock up Schneider the second he is elligible this summer they are nuts. LA struggled against SJ when they were keeping a fast pace in the regular season and at times in the playoffs. Speed seems to be the most effective way to deal with LA, not necessarily because they're slow, but fast paced games doesn't suit them because it gives them less time to organize themselves, and when they're not organized, they're not a strong team. I think the Rangers is a stronger team than LA on paper, if you look on individual players, so if they're unable to stick to their organized playstyle, they're in big trouble. The Rangers might not be as strong as the Sharks and the Ducks and the Hawks, but they might be better equiped at dealing with LA. | ||

This is not 2004 anymore. | ||
