Maybe we could go a step further, and have Stevens drop Gretzky

I'm hoping, with everything I got that our club wins the cup, but I just don't feel too good about it. We got to this stage with luck and timing. The Kings demolished three tough clubs with little to no adversity. I also think their size and Quick are the tough factors to nullify for us.
That being said, I didn't have a good feeling about our chances versus FLA, PHI and NYR.

The Kings didn't face anyone who was a top 25 goal scorer in the league. Daniel Sedin was the closest (@ 28th with 30 goals) and he was just back from a concussion fog. Vancouver got stuck in a mid series goalie controversy, and when Schneider stepped in he gave up 4 goals in 3 games and Quick gave up 3 - scoring was a problem for them on a decent goalie. Elliott absolutely didn't have the playoff composure that Halak showed in Montreal, or that series might have gone very differently as well. 2 playoff wins against backup goalies, though for different reasons. The Blues also had 24 goals out of their top scorer, Dave Backes - we have four 30 goal scorers. So...,they  didn't exactly demolish 3 teams at the top of their game. They didn't play anyone like the Flyers, on top of their game after blowing through Pittsburgh, and they never faced a defense like the Rangers. (EDIT: And they sure as shi!t haven't played anyone like the Devs!! Can't believe I left that out )

They're a good team, but they are definitely beatable. They've been hot at the right time, and they've gotten some fantastic breaks with Luongo's meltdown, battered Sedins, and Halak's concussion. they played well against the Coyotes, but like I said the Coyotes ain't the Rangers or Flyers either. We take this series too with solid play like we've shown almost constantly in the last 2 series.

If they give it their all, really pay the price to win and somehow fall short, then they can hold their heads high and so will I. I'm not 100% sure they did that last night, but we gave a headstart to the Flyers and Rugs as well and that worked out fine. Bottom line is this: This is Team and it has been since '86. I was proud of them last year for the effort and heart they showed down the stretch, and I sure as sh!t am proud of them now.

[forrest_gump] And that's all I have to say about that [/forrest_gump]

theyve quit you can tell

Are you kidding me? This overtime HAS BEEN ALL DEVILS. What game are you even watching?

It's just that bad 99% of Rangers and Flyers fans that give the rest of them a bad name.

Patty is the man! I'm so glad we've had the opportunity to watch him all these years as one of our own. He'll always be one of the all time greats to us

Bobby Ryan isn't going anywhere. Randy Carlyle will be the one leaving Anaheim if anyone is going.

Couldn't have said it better myself

Let's GO DEVILS!!!!!!!

It's Hewitt, people!  Jennifer Love Hewitt!

I loved her show "The Breast Whisperer". I heard it had dialogue but I don't honestly know if that's true.

short answer no.  long answer nope.

LOL, awesome

I'd love to see him retire here and then see 26 go up in the rafters.

Certainly 26 to the rafters before 27
