ECF: (4) Montreal Canadiens vs (5) New York Rangers

[alt kilgore]

Can't stand whiny little St. Louis and his pity party poor me Napoleon complex

[Apples]

AV has well exceeded his expectation for the Rangers. Best of luck to him in the finals, its going to be tough against the Kings or the Hawks!

[jejejester]

Canucks were 'destroyed' by the western conference basement dwellers.

Huh? What does that have to do with rangers having to play LA or CHI. Those two teams are in a different level over NY.

[Toni Zamboni]

congrats to the rangers, av and st. louis.

nice run by the habs, was fun.

[LeanBeef]

Vanek was brutal, lost every single puck battle.

[rotiman187]

Kings are going to destroy these rangers. My god the east sucks.

[Canuck or Die]

Rot in hell rangers.

[JiffyPB]

Vanek was brutal, lost every single puck battle.

Montreal fans call him Thomas Vanish for a reason.

No doubt... yikes he was bad

[The Magician]

The only way the Rangers can win is if Lundqvist plays like god

[ForsbergTheGreat]

Clutch King Lundqvist

Maybe rene will learn to keep his mouth shut next year.

Never, never give the other goalie encouragement. Elliotte Friedman called this.

[Down by the River]

Swedes give good interviews (maybe not the Sedins so much). Some emotion rather than canned responses from Lundqvist.

[Salmonberries]

Thats a relief.

Congrats AV!

[ForsbergTheGreat]

Good job AV, hope he wins the cup

[asian player]

Hawks will beat the Kings in game 7 and then they'll make the Rangers forfeit in 3 games

Rangers could have been here years ago if it wasn't for two-line Torts.

Says a lot when our team under Torts goes from 2 years out of President Cup champs to out of the playoffs and Alain takes a disfunctional Rangers team to the Final.

I guess I'm happy for AV.

[JiffyPB]

After game 6 in the ECF Coach's Corner talks about.......... THE TORONTO MARLIES????????? Fail. Get rid of these dinos plz.

[ForsbergTheGreat]

[Kakanucks]

edit: ooops....quotes about vanek didnt show up

yea, can't believe there was so much hype for him during the trade deadline, he was invisible.....when weise outplays you....u dun deserve the asking price you're throwing out there....

mtl is in a lose lose situation with him i think.....let him go in off season, and traded away assets for nothing, or overpay for a useless bum

look what AV did the season that got him fired

the team was spiraling downwards with him as the head coach that is a fact look at pretty much every single stat since the Cup final it was trending downwards ya some blame can be put on Gillis but AV shares that blame as well Torts inherited a broken team credited to both AV and Gillis not doing their jobs
