As a general rule, the New York fans are grouped thus:

Yankees, Knicks, Giants and Rangers

or

Mets, Nets, Jets and Islanders.

One group contains (mostly) winners and is generally despised by all the loser hacks out there who wish they had the testicular fortitude to man up and join the winners.  The others root for the Mets, Nets, Jets and Islanders.

Hard to blame Holtby.  The dude made 37 saves in a road playoff game 7.

After seeing the Kreider Krap throughout the playoffs (and last years playoffs), I'm hoping a ref wakes up and kicks him out at one point.

That being said, GO LIGHTNING!

Awesome defense by the Rangers.  I didn't see a Lightning player in the crease for more than half a second all game.  We'll get'em next game!

Hang in there, Lightning will strike  O0

If my prayers were to get answered, the Montreal GM (Bergevin would have tried to get rid of the current coach (Therrien), and made a big effort to attract Babcock to the team.  With Babcock in place, I really feel he would advise the GM on future acquisitions to make the team succeed.  Sadly this wasn't the case today, and the GM is defending the currrent coach.  I don't forsee big changes soon ..(although  Gonchar, Maholtra, Weaver are gone).
