da94wookiee Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 How can you say the Rangers don't "seem like an elite team at all" and the Senators are "very impressive"? I think it's gotta be either one or the other. Consider: - The series is tied 3-3 - The Senators didn't have the lead for the first 4 games of the series (because they won 2 games in overtime) - Craig Anderson is having the series of his life with a .933 save percentage and single-handedly stole games 4 & 5. HE'S NOT THAT GOOD. I'd agree that the Senators are playing well, but you gotta respect that the Rangers are an elite team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice. You should learn how to write more concisely though. Also, the "don't" should have been included in the quotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Kudelski Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 - Craig Anderson is having the series of his life with a .933 save percentage and single-handedly stole games 4 & 5. HE'S NOT THAT GOOD. Guess what Anderson's save percentage was in his last playoff series... that's right, .933. So was that the series of his life, or is this the series of his life?

smozoma Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 aaand sigh.... really thought the Sens were going to tie it up in the last 10 minutes, they were dominating, but that puck bounced crazily past Gonchar and he had to take that penalty with ~2 minutes left..

dynamo11 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Sens are very impressive so far in this series, NYR doesent seem like an elite team at all. Well the Rangers are moving on to Round 2. Canucks, Bruins, and Penguins are 1 and done. Are they not elite teams? Canucks won the President's Trophy. Bruins were defending cup champs. And Pittsburgh won like 12 in a row near the end of the year. Anything can happen in the playoffs!!! This is just how the Rangers play. They don't win games 6-1 like Pittsburgh. They win games 1-0 or 2-1. But they do WIN (for most part)! They find ways to win! They play a physical defensive game and rely on their goalie! HOME ICE THROUGHOUT WITH VANCOUVER OUT OF THE PICTURE!!! WHOO HOO!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a great series, but the Rangers didn't impress me that much. Sens didn't even play up to their potential. That beings said, with the East being so wide open, I can see the Rangers going all the way to the finals... but the West will win the Cup this year.

Sicarius Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 I can see the Rangers going all the way to the finals... but the West will win the Cup this year. I think the West wins the Cup as well. Your Rangers made it a step closer Wookie. Both our teams have 2 more rounds to get through to reach the Cup. You get Washington then Devils or Philly. We get LA then Nash or Phoenix. I think you guys have the easier road. I'm picking Philly and Rangers for the East finals and the Blues vs Nash in the West. LA can be scary with Quick. Just like Nash with Niemi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smozoma Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Interesting how most people pegged the sens to finish pretty much last, but if they hadn't had such Leafs-esque goaltending/defense in the first 3 months of the season (.881, .903, .907) they probably would have hit 100 points. Their passing game is really good. So completely different watching Leafs games and Sens games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da94wookiee Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 It was great seeing the two Rangers goals in game 7 scored by two role-playing defensive defensemen: Marc Staal and Dan Girardi. To me, that's what playoff hockey is all about. Unsung heroes. Nice writeup in the New York Times. Here's an amazing little tidbit: "It is the first time since 1996 that no Canadian team is left standing in the second round of the playoffs, and only the second time since 1974." http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/27/sports/hockey/2012-stanley-cup-rangers-edge-senators-in-game-7.html?_r=1&ref=sports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingraph Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 It was a great series, the Senators definitely didn't play like a #8 seed. Karlsson, Spezza, and of course Anderson were all very impressive to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
