Stop claiming disrespect Jimbo, . the people with something to lose on their predictions, like the Rangers.

Holtby entering game 79 is what makes me over confident that we can win this series, he's looked tired

I want the Rangers to win, but my goodness the hate among twitter seems like they've already lost. Not even from caps fans. From "Ranger" fans. Zucc drives the team, MSL can't replace him, Lundqvist can't close out a series. Makes me not even want to watch.

Here's my take on this series. Very similar to Pitt in that they will try to muck up the north south game. Slightly better offense than Pitt, but not light years ahead. Much better defense, but still has some slow vulnerability. We'll be going an average at best tender who has played WAY too many games. Fleury, whom I actually thought was the best player in the playoffs thus far, wasn't able to contain us enough to win. I'm expecting a ton of goals on Holtby.

Calling a Nash breakout in this series in a big way. Oh, and Mac returns to Norris worthy form like last year. We saw a glimpse of it in the Pitt series. (Easy predictions, I know).

It ain't gonna be pretty boys, but I like our chances. Hold on tight and here we come.

Twitter saying MSL taking Zuccs spot basically gives series to caps. Season's over. Bet the filed.

If I were a unbiased betting man I'd be taking those TB or Cap odds. I think both teams are pretty damn good.

Yeah. Mitch Korn is the one guy who you can argue has a better resume than Allaire. He turned Holtby from average to .... trending to very good. If he's great this series, I'll be upset but I won't be surprised.

Holtby was always a good goalie. Adam Oates completely screwed him up with the system he was running and the kind of dmen that were getting jerseys every night during that season. He tried to change the way he played and it wasn't good.

He had a great year but there were times in the Isles series he looked like he had the playoff jitters. Who know's, hopefully for the Rangers sake he plays the way he previously played in the playoffs but it wouldn't surprise me if he gained a good amount of confidence after that 1st round win.

Perhaps I was bit harsh, really only watched a few caps games this season. I guess my take on it was in comparison to Fleury, whom as I mentioned, really did a fantastic job against the Blueshirts. The knock on Holtby was more or less an unfair comparison on my part.

No go stub your toe on some legos

Yeah ye was good. But he also gave up some crap goals. If the Isles don't choke away game 7, they win. Holtby had zero feel for the puck.

Malkin looks like he's 12 in this photo. Must be during the WJC.
