Yeh, not with an elbow. Maybbe the league really does have something against you guys. No suspensions for the phillips hit, or the neil hit, or Zubrus, or Parise (I'll give you Ovechkin). All of these blatant infractions and no suspensions. Clearly since only rangers fans and torts are calling for suspensions there is an anti-rangers bias

There's anti-everyone bias if you take all the fan bases together at what they say. Except in the Western Conference.

It's been real quiet over there.

idk i wanna hear more about how the devils are superior to thr rangers right now.
- tomburton99

Totally, the Devils can prove how much more superior they are to the Rangers when the Rangers go up 3-1 in the series.

The way you guys talk you would think the Devils have won 4 of 5 head to head series. So what do you wanna hear? The Devils are the best team in hockey. There are you satisfied? They area amazing little engine of a small market team, Peter DeBoer is diplomatic, he is stoic and should be a write in for the Jack Adams award.

Comprehension isn't his strong suit.

Now if you want someone to completely misinterpret what you said and twist it into nonsensical goobledeeguk, he is your man!

not all of us know how to insult an entire religion like you do. Give yourself a standing ovation.

The Rangers are up 2-1 and they haven't even played well, if they ever play a more complete game what will happen?

The Devils will win, duh.

How about that hit which caused Marty's head to fly back last game? Oh, that was just the wind causing an embellishment!

I know they are. Honestly they are toying with the Rangers. They all prearranged to spot the Rangers a 2-1 lead. Heck, the conquered Brian Campbell and Kulikov, they are unbeatable!

Damn I am pissed my work banned this site, just spent the past 15 minutes catching up on all the back and forth


Hopefully the 3rd time is the charm tonight. Would be nice to get a 3-1 series lead.

Let me know when the cross-border pissing contest is over, then I will come back in. Enough already. Each of us have our biases based on rooting interest, now, can we stop the verbal jousting ping-pong match and maybe talk some hockey? I really hope something major does not happen in the game tonight but have a really bad foreboding sense that it will.

I just hope the Rangers bring their legs in the 1st period tonight. For some reason, they have yet to show up in a 1st period this series.

that kulikov, more like lidstrom lite.

honestly. the rangers can't come out flat like they did in game 3. the devils will be shark looking for that drop of blood. Rangers need to stay in the offensive zone and just out work the devils.

They definitely need to take the concrete boots off. I'd rather see them come out on fire and set the tone early. Getting outplayed for 2 periods taking it for granted that Hank is going to pitch a shutout everytime is a poor habit to get into.

It's time for the offense to let hank have a relatively light work load tonight. Give the guy a break and score in the first 2 periods.

I don't know, Jan. Devils don't have any beef in the game. They"ve made 4 or 5 lineup changes to try and spark the offense. Seems desperate. I don't see any trouble tonight. Maybe wedenesday when Prust gets back. Revenge Ottawa Senator style. They'll probably sign Peluso to a one game contract.

Two things: never count the money and never overlook your opponent. Devils have outplayed the Rangers for big stretches of games and Hank has answered the bell. Would love to see a 60-minute effort, that with the win would satisfy me. I count nothing as being a given for tonight.

I'd really like to see a 60 minute effort from the team. The current course in all reality is not sustainable, nor is it a good habit to settle in to.

I feel good about tonight I know I do everynight. Just have a feeling the Rangers will play their best game from beginning to end. I think they will channel the frustration they are feeling over what the devils are doing (ie the picks,etc)

Same was said after game 1, don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

In both losses for the Devils all the goals they let in were in the third period, these kind of collapses will cause the team to join the HABS on the golf course.

I didn't say the Rangers were gonna win or look past tonight. I was just saying I don't expect physical trouble...like fighting. Also just commenting that the Devils have been outplaying the Rangers why keep changing the lineup? Why not just keep doing what they're doing? Seems like a kneejerk reaction.

nbcsports pregame, 1 minute in. Milbury trashes the rangers for playing too many games. Keith Jones loves the devils game so far.
