(1) New York Rangers vs. (6) New Jersey Devils Revenge of 1994 ECF series thread

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC
Kovalchuk was asked about spear. Said isn't worried about supp. disc, because Callahan isn't injured and there was a lot of that going on.

Craig Button ‏@CraigJButton
Give it a break on supplemental discipline for Kovalchuk's 'poke' @ Callahan! Gaborik should be worried with elbow on Zidlicky. Like Prust?

Let's see how many times Torts tells the press "I'm not going to answers that"
....I say 2..gets up and storms off...

 

[BadMotoWeazal]

And here'ssssss Tort!

 

[Indian Chief]

He's already at a minute and going strong. I like my chances here!

 

[naslundfan19]

Being civil so far.

 

[Wingingit]

wow he was actually pretty easy going.....

 

[Indian Chief]

Being civil so far.

Someone put a tranquilizer in his water bottle, no other explanation.

 

[CalamityX11]

yea tort went through the presser...

I dont think Gabs will get a suspension... IMO it didnt seem like an extension of the elbow....

 

[naslundfan19]

I used to like Torts, but this playoff season has changed my mind 180 on that.

 

[CalamityX11]

Tort was just r*pe in the ass by Boyle in the back, he's a happy camper

Brodeur on Rupp: I was minding my own business for real, don't really yap at anyone...especially him, he's so big.


gif of the night:

 

[dash]

Geez, Bernier went down like he was still playing for the Canucks...

/I couldn't resist

 

[mattola]

Geez, Bernier went down like he was still playing for the Canucks...

/I couldn't resist

you never can dash. you never can

That was more of a Mason Raymond fall than a Ryan Kesler fall.

quote of the day goes to Kovalchuk:

“It’s hockey. It’s not chess. So, we’re allowed to punch each other.”

Ditto.

Clearly Kovalchuk has never heard of chess boxing:

OK so I am watching on DVR.

Devils 3-0 and Ruff goes out and does the only thing he can do is be a cheap shot turd. Torts is complaining to anyone who listens.

I have not seen the post gam ecomments but I would bet the house that old Torty was dumbfounded by the penalty of Ruff.

Screw the Rangers. cant wait to see them lose the series.

AIN'T NO RULE SAYS A DOG CAN'T PLAY IN THE NHL!

Rupp should get a game for that. I disagree with Mattola; goalies should be off limits for that kind of crap unless they swing first, and Brodeur was clearly not the instigator here. It wasn't a huge punch, but it didn't need to be. It was so unnecessary that it needs to be called out.
