    SCF: (5) New York Rangers vs (6) Los Angeles Kings

    What do you mean constantly? 3 times in 43 seasons, lose and then drop off the face of the earth. +1 though.

    I dont think there's any stopping the Kings now, I know it's only one game but if it takes more than 5 games for them to win I'll be surprised.

    i meant constantly as in that constantly happens when we do make the finals. same thing every time

    but yes obviously we don't constantly make the finals lol

    what are you talking about all these teams

    Kings Bruins and Hawks are the only legit contenders going deep pretty much every year since 2010

    if you actually look at Cup finals you will see quite often teams drop off and have a tough time maintaining the same consistency

    Philly NJ Carolina Tampa Bay Detroit Pittsburgh Vancouver Dallas Ottawa Calgary Edmonton all teams who reached the finals and struggled to stay a legit contender

    yes but every single one of those teams with the exception of the Sens and us has won a cup before, that's the difference

    Kings all the way. NYR is a good possession team, but LA is elite. NYR won't be able to keep up over 7 games unless Lundqvist plays the best hockey of his career.

    If Quick is as terrible against the Rangers as he's been all playoffs then the Rangers can definitely steal some games if Lundqvist is playing well.

    Quick is coming into the finals with a 2.86GAA for the playoffs lol

    Maybe I'm missing something here but I'm not understanding all the Ranger love on this board.

    For those of us who remember '94, who wants to see that again? And on the 20th anniversary of when the best team(and officials) money could buy beat our Canucks. No thanks.

    I might be mistaken but I believe our friend Mark Messier has some token front office job with the Rangers. Who wants to see his name on the cup for a 7th time? Not me.

    AV deserves a cup because the Canucks fired him? It's true, AV seems like a nice guy and he's a good coach, but he had the best chance at a cup anybody could hope for a few years ago and he blew it. It's not all his fault but he was the coach and he couldn't make the correct decisions which would've allowed the Canucks to squeeze out that 4th win.

    That guy had high scoring, good defense, ace goaltending (at times), division title and Presidents Trophy winning teams, and all he could manage was one failed cup run sandwiched between 1st and 2nd round knockouts. Now he's in his first year in New York with another shot at the cup and Canuck fans are cheering for him? Obviously I'm not. If he wins with the Rags my question is why couldn't he do it here first? His team only managed 93 points in the weak metro division.

    because he was coaching the Canucks and for whatever reason no matter how good a team we have or how much things seem to be in our favour, something always happens to make us lose.

    If he wins with the Rangers it will pretty much confirm the Canucks are cursed

    So can we assume A V wasn't the problem?

    Sounds fairly easy in retrospect since the Sedins sucked last season. Remember Richards was in a massive slump the last couple years and St Louis didn't have a good regular season (with the Rangers anyway). I think many were surprised by how they re-found their form.

    that;s why i said currently
