    Yes. Scary good. I watched a fair amount of Western Conference games this season with my cousin on the Center Ice package (he's legitimately an Oiler fan from way back), and one thing he said all year with Quick playing well was man, if this team could score they would be dominant. Guess what, they can score...and Quick still looks great. I don't even expect Phoenix to get a game out West watching some of that game last night.

    Wrong.

    Nobody is stopping the Kings from winning the Cup this year. Not the Rangers, not the Devils.

    We sure do. There was a first period KOVY SUCKS chant at the 17:00 mark, but at that mark in the other two periods there were big plays going on and the fans forgot to keep it going :lol:

    yeah, but what I'm sayin is, what's the worst that's gonna happen for the Devs? They go to the box and our anemic momentum killing pp comes on?

    anayways I sense a real chippy game tonight.......Game 1 was pretty tame.

    yeah i watched last night a little.........frankly I think they get a way with an awful lot of interference, I watched a lot of play away from the puck they were holding, hitting, chopping etc. They're all over the puck though. The Coyotes looked tiny on the ice with them.

    I was thinking the samething.

    I think the formula to beat the Kings is force turnovers and block lots of shots ... I wonder who does that??

    Devils: Don’t sell tix to Rangers fans


    The Devils have launched an online campaign to try to convince fans not to sell their tickets to their Rangers counterparts.

    The plan concentrates on stopping Rangers fan from infiltrating Prudential Center in the secondary market, where Devils fans who cannot attend the game or games sell off their tickets.

    Here are some of the options the Devils laid out on their website:

    * If you own seats and have to sell for any of the home games because of conflicts, do NOT list your seats on the secondary market. The team recommends several blogs to list available seats and suggests asking for pictures or to meet in person to ensure the buyer is a Devils fan.

    * If fans are unsure about conversing on Devils blogs to sell tickets, they can call the Devils Fan Experience Team line at 855-DEV-ARMY, and as a service they will help sell seats to fellow Devils fans.

    * Tickets are available for all games on the secondary market and the team lists websites such as Ticket Exchange in encouraging Devils fans to scoop up the remaining seats

    The Blues tried that formula, and got swept for their efforts.


    Good luck though. *smirk*

    You know what it looks like to me.

    Remember 2004 in the MLB.

    Red Sox played a grueling AL playoffs while the Colorado Rockies swept everyone in the NL.

    Then in the World Series it was a different story.

    Stanley Cup is a different game and there is a reason why the Rangers were the #1 seed.

    Phoenix is incredibly inexperienced and they had Mike Smith on beast mode, now he looks normal again
