June 14, 201412 yr comment_640569 Game on, indeed, Greg. You'll be needing that wine, and lots more watching the Rangers win the next 3. (Dinny made me say that) Love playoff hockey. Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640578 Turned on the game two minutes before the Kings tied it at 2 apiece. Fuckity fuck Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640582 Hoping the Rangers can pull it together to extend the season. I don't want it to end tonight. Report

June 14, 201412 yr comment_640597 Oh well, it's over. Congrat to the Kings fans. Condolences to the Monkey Family. Report

Gene- 'nuff said. Sorry Dinny. The good news is I am due another free wine dinner from my Ranger fan out here. The Rangers played an awesome game. Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640606 The Rangers actually played several good games. Just got beat by a team that played a little better and caught a few more breaks, had some good timing, etc. 4 out of 5 games decided by one goal. What an amazing sport when it's played at such a high level. Edited June 14, 201412 yr by Wmcmanus Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640624 Congrats, Kings. The better team won. Just look at shots on goal - last night it was Kings 51, Rangers 30. Sorry Dinny and true Ranger fans - hurts to lose when your team plays so hard. Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640640 That was a really good game last night,the Rangers had their chances but couldn't finish. The kings never let up. Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640643 Congrats to the Kings on the title; and congrats to the Rangers for a heck of a run, they showed themselves quite well despite the 4-1 games result. And this against a Kings team that was just a powerhouse so it seems..... Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640656 Congrats to the Kings. They are no doubt the toughest team in the league with the best goalie. the Rangers should hold their heads high though. They fought hard. On to the World Cup... Report
June 14, 201412 yr comment_640704 I think the kings will have trouble with any of the top world cup teams. It's hard to cover that big a net with the butterfly style. Report
June 15, 201412 yr comment_640871 Yup, the better team won. Kudos to the Kings. But not better by as much as the 4-1 series score indicates. A bounce here and there and that series goes 7. But the Kings know how to finish and they are relentless and that was the difference. Rangers were absolutely exhausted by third period of every game. Still, the Kings didn't lead very often for a team that won 4-1. But they got the job done when it counted. NYR will need to learn from this and get a couple of guys who can clog the middle and actually like to play in the dirty areas. Nash isn't that guy anymore. Report
June 15, 201412 yr comment_640885 Nice synopsis, Monkey. The speed of the Rangers kept freaking me out, sometimes made the larger Kings look like lumbering beasts, but that size served them well in the trenches. That last game was a nail-biter for sure, kudos to all involved. Report
