Also kings in 5.  It would not supprise me that they sweep it.

 

They dominate in every aspect of the game right now while the rangers barely tossed Montreal which is i have to say a much weaker club than the hawks.

Want the Rangers to win, bring the cup back East where it belongs.

Game 1 is going to overtime!

Doughty getting butt-ended looked bad. Him telling Carter to "F" off was hilarious though. Pure heat of the moment.

I didn't watch the whole game but breif parts of the 1st and 3rd, looked like the Rangers were playing pretty well.. Hagelin had a ton of chances

[Bauer_Hockey10]

I said Kings in 5 too don't think NYR have really faced a team balanced like the Kings yet

[greghughes]

where did the bracket challenge go? i think i won

[Fooj]

Williams with that e28 shot

9 mins to go.. What a game.. Should have been goalie interference on the 3rd LAK goal though

glad to see the Kings win after the non-call on Lundqvist's MAJOR dive. I don't understand how you don't call the embellishment there.

[DField56]

Looked like the only part of embellishment would be when he had the puck and he leaned into carter.. i didn't think the flop was too bad. either way it shouldn't have got to that point cause King interfered with Henrik on the 3rd goal. Rangers played well in LA too bad they couldn't pull out a win in either game.

Really? Go home
Kings can scrap and won fair and square, hats off to their effort once again ...but really - a dive by Hank? GTFO - you're clueless

[shoeshine boy]

seriously? Carter interferes/slashes him, he turns around and then both skates come off the ground and he flops down? a penalty by Carter for sure but one of the biggest dives I've seen in this year's playoffs.

Dude come on
Go somewhere

[DField56]

Cotter shouldn't you be happy.. You live in LA

[DField56]

Also how about the zucc trip on brown? If brown does that to anyone you have people labeling him as a dirty player..

Okay, I don't see why people are complaining about the third goal. I wouldn't have called it interference either. King is trying to get to the front of the net and McDonagh sticks a hip into the body and stick in the feet causing King to tumble and "bump" Lundqvist.  The angles on the feed I was watching from seemed to show that Henrik still had a very good look at it and a good chance to make the save.  Either way, from the angles I saw, I would have allowed that goal too since it was the actions of McDonagh that caused any contact to the goalie, who also happened to be outside of his crease. You get bumped outside of the blue paint, that is on you if you're a goalie.

I haven't seen the third goal yet.

The tip Brown made in the 2nd was epic.

So well done

Listen, what's done is done so no sense in crying over spilt milk IMO
However, I think there are a couple issues here which are why people are upset about the "non" call.

1) you are incorrect, Hank was in his crease.
2) guys who have been getting bumped into goalies have been called for goalie interference all playoffs - in fact it was called on rangers earlier in the game.

So I think that's the issues people have with it.

Either way - rangers still had a one goal lead after that so.....hats off once again to the kings
