I'm actually surprised they scored on the 5-on-1. Having that many options often means people overthink it, pass too much, and fail.

GOOD GAME by Holtby. EXACTLY what this team needed. I'll take it, even if it means facing Boston (who we did well against in the regular season).

BRING ON THE PLAYOFFS

(now to just hope that the Kings can avoid Vancouver)

Oh god dammit. Now since the Rangers are clearly gonna lose, that means if Vancouver wins tonight, which they will, they'll get the President's Trophy.

Ugh.


president's trophy is a curse anyway

ask vancouver how it worked out for them last season

and the capitals

and the sharks

one interesting thing is that 109-111 points is very low for a PT winner

Since the Rangers won the Stanley Cup in 1994, only four Presidents' Trophy winners went on to win the Stanley Cup: Dallas in 1999, Colorado in 2001 and Detroit in 2002 and 2008. The two other dual winners since 1986 are Edmonton (1987) and Calgary (1989)

The Canucks went 10-4 at home in the playoffs last year and just 5-6 on the road. Having home ice advantage definitely helped. I do agree that the President's Trophy isn't the most important thing in the world - the odds that the top two teams from the West and East are slim - but the Canucks are also playing for first in the West. St. Louis have been dominant at home; the Canucks want home ice over them if the two teams face off in the WCF.

God I want to face them so bad. REALLY hoping the Kings can hold on here. I'd give the Kings about a 50% chance to beat the Blues and about a 10% chance to beat the Canucks...

Yeah they're really annoying. First they get it wrong that the Blues are tied for the Presidents with Rangers and Canucks. Then he tries to correct that statement by saying the Blues lose in ROW to both of them.

And I was just like, "no... that's still wrong."

And then the whining on that bad hit. Oh my god dude shut up.

So, maybe I'm a homer here, but I honestly don't feel that hit was THAT bad. Richards was already skating at him. Couture was protecting the puck. What exactly is Richards SUPPOSED to do in that situation. I mean yeah, he hit him from behind BECAUSE Couture was putting his back between Richards and the puck. What else can Richards do? Attempt to stop all his momentum, come to a complete stop, and wait for Couture to make a play?

The regular season 1st place team in the NHL wins the Stanley Cup more often than any other given place, so it's really not a curse at all.

(Not more than all other places combined, obviously, but that would be stupid to expect.)

Sharks have this figured out. Keep your back to the opposition at all times. That way whenever they hit you, they get called for a penalty.
