Obviously I have a biased opinion but LA looked like they had lost the series when leaving the ice Friday night. For them to travel to Chicago after loosing 2 straight chances to go to the Cup at home, and then beat the hawks in the United Center will be quite the feat.

Meanwhile the hawks return home, winning the last two on the road, with their backs against the wall, now sleeping in their own beds, home ice with one game to go and defend the Cup against the rangers....?

What can I say but GO HAWKS!

I want some of those fumes, they seem pretty potent.

I think that was the proper decision by Bettman. No one, including Carcillo, excuses what he did, but there were mitigating circumstances that created that situation. That said, he probably won't play, unless there is an injury or another suspension. But with JT Miller still nursing an injured shoulder, it will be good to have him available later in the series.

I expect NY to win the next two...so, we will see. Im not sure if I should take away that LA is vulnerable since they've had a hard time winning at home.

Game 1 wasn't that bad of a loss. Truthfully it should've never gotten to OT the way LA dominated the 3rd. Last night though, was a huge kick in the nuts. They outplayed the Kings and had chance after chance to put the game away but couldn't do it. Kreider's lousy breakaway attempt was the coup de grace.

On the plus side, the Rangers have shown the last two games that this series is way closer than most thought going in. Have to win both at home, but the series is far from over. MSG will be rocking, unlike that building filled with bored Laker fans.

Make history or be history!

Truthfully I've never seen a series in which one team got every single lucky bounce and the other got none. How many clean goals do the Kings have vs. goals deflected off Rangers? It's been unfathomable to me. Really hope that puck luck turns tonight, because a sweep would be a complete disservice to how close this series has really been.

It's really been unbelievable. Not taking anything away from the Kings cause they're as good as advertised. But the Rangers haven't gotten a single bounce go their way.

Unfortunately people see that they are down 3-0 and assume that the Kings have dominated the Rangers when that hasn't been the case. First 2 games go to OT and then Quick flat out steals game 3. It's been a lot closer then the bottom line shows.

Regardless the Blueshirts need to be perfect from here on in. Holding out hope, that the epic comeback starts tonight.
