If the Kings lose tonight, they will lose the series. Mark my words. And then if you thought 1994 was annoying, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

Why don't you take a breather and stop gulping down the Kool-aid.

Ok brah! I'll have that percentage worked out by EOD! It's at the top of my list of things to do today.

The refs and snow cone ice wont be there to save the Rags in Game 5. That stuff just doesn't happen two games in a row.

The Rags blew their wad in this game. They will likely go down in flames in LA in Game 5

I cannot stand Messier. Dirty D-bag of a player.

Someone needs to tell all the bankers, traders, and hedge fund analysts at the Garden when to make noise. For 90% of them, this is probably the first hockey game they've ever seen.

And I bet he retired with a nice pension.

The Rags will be on the powerplay all night. Refs doing all they can to ensure a NY win

this sux. I was really hoping to see a sweep. Kings better win Game 5

Tanner Pearson, Kyle Palmieri, Tyler Toffoli, Vyacheslav Voynov, Max Pacioretty, P.K. Subban, Milan Lucic, Artem Anisimov, Cal Clutterbuck, T.J. Oshie, Paul Stastny, Jonathan Quick, Mike Green, David Krejci, Brandon Prust, Johan Franzen.. just to name a few players all selected after the 24th pick. A better game is to look at all of the Devils' draft picks since 2003 and count how many of them are still in the NHL (and yes, I know the defense will be "but look at where they've drafted"). Honestly, I hope they knock it out of the ballpark this offseason but to say Lou and Conte have been doing a smash up job at drafting is just...well... you get the point.

Doot...doot...doot...another first-round pick bites the dust.

Clemmensen is available!? Ex-Devil!!! Lou, pounce on that sh*t!!!

I'm feeling a sweep

It's not a third jersey. It's a throwback jersey.

Jeff Carter!

I wish Lou would allow high numbers to be worn. Yes i know he allowed Gilmour, Mogilny, and Jagr to wear high numbers. Im talking just on average... I think its boring to keep enforcing the low number policy. It'd be cool to see a 67, 71, 56, 62, 55 etc every once in a while on this team. I know he does it to build team unity, so no one seems special or different than the next guy. But it's a lame policy. Just like his policy of prohibiting third jerseys.

Yes Lou..do it! do it! Sign the Ex-Devil!! Then go get Gionta!!

I nominate this for BEST post of the day, hah.

I agree with you. I hope they make Schneider the starter and don't play the "no one is being handed the position" game and make him compete with Marty or others. It would only piss the guy off.

Good article on him. I wouldn't mind the pick. http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=714885

Was being sarcastic. But I do feel he's coming back for one more season as a backup. Where else would he wind up? No one will sign him as their starter. Just by default i see Marty returning. And if that happens, he'll play about 20-25 games. Hopefully I'm wrong, but I don't see Lou telling Marty to pack his bags and leave so unceremoniously. Even despite the "this team is ok being medicocre" comments that Marty dished out at the end of the season, and which Lou flatly rejected. Too much history between these two. We'll see...

I also feel Brodeur is coming back. Too much history between he and Lou. I see him playing 20-25, 30 games if he does. Schneider will have to suck it up for one more season

Lou will draft Claude Lemiux's kid with the 30th pick. That's my guess

How did we look so slow and physically challenged against this Kings team? Have they changed that much in 2 years? I was at Game 1 at the Rock during the Finals and even during the skatearound, the Kings seemed so damn quick on the ice. I remember thinking "oh sh*t, we better be on our game" even before the puck dropped.
