So now that the Stanley Cup Final is set, who do you want to win?

As a Vancouver Canucks fan I find it funny that the coach we fired at the end of last season is now coaching in this years cup final, LOL! I was really hoping Montreal was going to make the final, but with Price being injured, I didn't see it being much of a possibility.

Personally, I'm gonna have to root for the Rangers, not because of AV, but because of Martin St. Louis. Losing his Mom during the playoffs has to make it really hard to concentrate on playing, but he's doing it and contributing with goals.  I just think it's fitting that he wins a cup in his Moms honor.

New York won both games they played this year against L.A. by scores of 3-1, and 1-0.

Yeah coming back from 3-0 against the Sharks was pretty impressive.  Didn't watch much of tonight's game, but I figured Chicago had it. Gonna be an interesting final.  LA didn't have muck luck against the Rangers in the regular season, but the finals are a whole new ball game.

The Rangers and the Los Angeles Kings have met twice in the playoffs since the Kings entered the N.H.L. in 1967, but they have never met in the Stanley Cup finals.
The odds are in favour of the Kings but in my opinion is 50% each, they are equally the two top teams of the season.

I hope that New York Rangers wins the NHL Stanley Cup final this time. Some of my favorite players are representing the Rangers this time, including Henrik Lundqvist and Jesper Fast.  Grin

Another crazy one. I have been watching and I don't even really like hockey. They were losing basically the whole game and then won in overtime...

Regular season stats are relatively close.  I think this series is going to come down to special teams. The NY PP has been excellent in the post season.  Gonna be interesting to see if LA's PK is up to the task.  

Looks like the twitter war is already heating up, LOL!  I should add that I think twitter is one of the stupidest things to come out in the past few years.

Kings. Purely geographic.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Well the Kings won game one 3-2 in overtime.  Took a bit for me to get into the game but it was a great comeback by the Kings.  Gotta give Lundqvist credit for stopping 20 shots in the third period alone. Shame the Rangers couldn't get the win for him.

So painful to watch the Rangers sit back and get shelled in the third.  But thats AV hockey, was so frustrating to watch in Vancouver when he would have the team sit back like that.  neither team could bury one on the PP.  The team that can find their PP scoring could easily win the series.

I want the Kings to win because I am from NY and HATE the Rangers with the passion of a thousand whores boarding an aircraft carrier that is about to put to sea for six months.

I only have a signature because I'm allowed.

Not looking good for The Rangers.  Down 2-0 in the series, and now 2-0 in game 3. Lundqvist needs to be lights out for the rest of this game.  Don't think it's going to matter much.  The way Quick has been playing, even 2 goals to tie the game at this point seem unrealistic.

It's all but over.  It's gonna be 4 straight at this rate.  AV proving once again how easily he can be out coached.  He's making his team look like the visitors out there.  He has the last change and is allowing Sutter to dictate the play.

The Los Angeles Kings needs just one more win to lift the 2014 Stanley Cup. Disappointed with the performance of New York Rangers so far. This is going to be a whitewash. Disgraceful.

That last 3 minutes or so with the empty net was painful to watch.  Where was the sense of urgency?  They barely got the puck out of their own end.  Disgusting effort!  I almost feel sorry for the fans that paid over $2 grand a ticket just to see their team get shutout.

The Rangers are 0-11 all time in a series when trailing 3-0. They forced Game 7 just once in 1939. Swept 6 times.

Send in the fat lady for warm up, this ones soon to be over.
