You never know...After all, 6th seed Philly beat 1st seed Montreal...anything is possible.

True, especially in the east.

In reality, it's a team effort and Price did a great job. Most goalies wish they could have a rookie year like that.

Oh no question, I wasn't down on Price at all. Hell I mean the kid took his team to the semifinals in his rookie year. He's only going to get better. It's just a shame as you know the Montreal press is going to rip him up.

No, they're not. However I think the odds of the Rangers winning the next three games in a row is pretty slim given the way the Pens have been playing... and that two of the three games are here in Pittsburgh.

Let's hope not. I think they'll consider the fact that he's a kid. Hopefully, for Price's self-confidence in the future.

I agree. It's a shame. The guy shouldn't be getting negative reviews. He did all he could. With as many veterans that are on the Montreal roster, they should have known they need to step up. Not only for themselves, but the entire team. I dunno. I'm not trying to say they lacked the tenacity when they were playing, they just seemed pretty lackadaisical at times. I felt they underplayed that series, hence why it went 5 games. Hell, it probably would have went 4 games if the Flyers had gotten that first victory.

Either way, props to Price.

The odds of the Rangers slipping through this series are definitely few in their favor. However, it's not impossible. They aren't going to go down with a fight, that's a fact. It's going to be pretty interesting tomorrow afternoon. I can't wait to see the results.

What a goal by Malkin! One period of hockey left for the Rangers this year!

OUPS EDIT: Wow, Rangers just scored two back-to-back goals.

Makelele · 05-04-2008, 04:25 PM

Whoa, a guy who's apparently playing his first game in the NHL scored the Rangers first goal. Nice for Mr Korpikoski.

Edit: Too bad for the Rangers.

Rangers

Damn was that a fun game.

I missed yesterday's game. I was at a meshuggah concert

Congratulations to Philly. Although I admit to really disliking your team, bullshit aside the bottomline is you guys won and it's not like you stole it or anything. I agree with Playstopause when he says that goaltending lost it for us this series, but you guys played hard and got the wins.

Congratz to the Habs for having a great season, finishing first overall in the conference when everyone left them for dead, and giving the city hope for the 25th stanley cup in 99 years of Canadien's hockey history.

Just watch for us next year, boys!

Btw, if Price has any weakness its that he's very emotional and takes a while to get a good hold of them... one bad goal is usually followed by another... Most, including every player on the Flyers, will agree that technically there isn't much he's doing wrong

I'm gonna be cheering for whichever team wins the series between Dallas and San Jose... Although I like San Jose a bit more I think both teams are playing the nicest, most entertaining hockey of the playoffs right now

Really? I think watching the Sharks is like throwing a jar of marbles at the wall. It's a freaking mess.

Bye-bye to the Rangers.
