New York Sports: Ready to Rumble!

The Caps are playing strong so far against the Rangers. I wasn't sure if they would show signs of wear after going 7 against the Isles.

"The course of these seven games only added to the anguish, since only four days ago they had come within 101 seconds of ending New York’s season. But for now, with the nameplates stripped from above the stalls and the trash piled atop the wooden seats, the Capitals reconciled their last game of the 2014-15 season with what they believed was among their best efforts of the series. After all, Coach Barry Trotz had asked them to empty everything from the tanks, to spill their souls onto the ice."

Man.....these guys are so tough!

Not like some baseball player, 'out for two weeks after being frightened by a small child.'

Congrats PC, hell of a comeback by the Rangers.

Gracias!

I have to admit....I never....never....thought they could do it again: comeback from three down.

Gonna see if I can see the Empire State building from my balcony tonight.

Rangers just won the first game against the Lightening....

...seemed too easy.

Washington was a nail-biter......this game much less so.

But...still a one-goal win.

I only saw highlights. I was wondering if the game was as dominated by the Rangers as the highlights seem to indicate.

I'm not certain that 'dominated' is the right term...but it seemed that the game was never in doubt.

Play a tight game, and score when you have to.

(There were actually parts of the game when I was able to read a book during play....!!!)

Sorry Rangers fans, I'm rooting for Tampa.

But I like the Rangers, too. So if they go to the Stanley Cup, I'll be rooting for them!

The last time the Lightning won the Cup, it broke the NHL.

The last lockout happened in the offseason after the Lightning won the cup. It's when ESPN dropped hockey broadcasts.
