It's funny the image of Mario has Islanders in it.....especially since it was the islanders who put an end to the Penguins dreams of a 3 peat in 92-93.......a severe underdog Islander team I might add......Then again I'm a Ranger fan and Mario killed us for years.Last edited by Guest; 03-08-2012, 05:45 PM.Comment

Biggest bullshit call in the history of the NHL playoffs........Mario pretending like his arm fell off and then he's back the next night killing my Rangers...Definitely a slash, no doubt about it....but suspending a player from a playoff series for a slash?...Richter didn't help by letting in a 50 foot slap shot from the blue line by Ron Francis I believe.Comment

He did? Damn, I'm getting old.....doesn't really matter......as much as I would like to think so, I doubt the Rangers would have won the series with Graves in the lineup. That Pittsburgh team was stacked. The real miracle to me will always be the following year when the Islanders knocked out Pittsburgh.....still don't understand how that happened...and without Pierre Turgeon who was having a tremendous season and playoffs until Dale Hunter cheap shotted him in the Caps series.....I can still see David Volek...who was a total scrub....scoring the game winning goal. Would have been cool to see a Lemiuex vs. Gretzky Stanley Cup.Comment

Yeah, I don't want to talk about that series...
That '92-'93 team was lethal, won 17 in a row, still a record....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

Understood.....there are certain years for some of my teams I never want to revisit again as well....(2004 Yankees)... I'll tell you this though, as a Ranger fan, I'm starting to get nervous....we seem to hit the wall around this time every year and head into the playoffs without any momentum. We seem to have Boston's number and Philly's.....Pittsburgh, Ottawa and Jersey scare me a little bit. I'm glad we didn't mortgage the future for Nash, but we definitely needed a sniper and we haven't had anyone to quarterback the power play since Leetch. Crosby or no Crosby....those Pens are scary....Malkin is a beast.Comment

The Wings have really taken a shit lately, but all the injuries don't help either. Once they get everyone back they should be fine, but their performances on the road are scary. I also don't like matching up with Nashville in the first round, but we'll see how that plays out. I can't believe the Sharks are having such a down year either. Their defensive will at least slightly improve next year though when Brad Stuart inevitably signs there. The Pens are looking like a scary team now, and don't count Ottawa out either. The last month is really shaping up great.2012: 2/10 The Darkness, 2/20 Van Halen, 3/3 The Black KeysComment

O-kay , o-kay . I'll be the first to mention the great white elephant in the room .
My St. Louis Blues are not only the first NHL team to crack the 100 point mark , but ,
the first team to clinch a playoff spot . They have the Central Division title and
the Presidents Trophy within possible reach .
Yes , they are a young team with lots to prove . Late incoming head coach Ken Hitchcock
has lit a serious fire under their asses . Let's go Blues !
May the best and well deserving teams win .Last edited by Green Manalishi; 03-18-2012, 03:11 PM.Comment
