that cant have been our "cup"

[nj_cup]

talking with my brother and his fear is such an huge hard fought series against a big rival like that some fans will be content on that and kinda maybe have a letdown against the kings? find that hard to believe though this is a different team differently mental process.



gotta stay hungry havent done anything yet!

There's not many rings in that locker room. Parise was front and center in that Silver medal Olympic loss, he doesn't want second by any means.

No such thing as a letdown this late in the playoffs..not possible.

Not looking at the roster but I cant imagine many if any players on the Kings have won a cup..I know we have 4-5 who have with Marty and Patty winning multiple ones. So I think thats a big advantage for us.

Both teams are so even and balanced that its so hard to even declare a favorite..honestly Id rather it be them lol.

Hopefully the week off and playing on the East coast hurts them..also cant imagine there will be much black and purple there on Wednesday night. That should make our guys feel good.

Scuderi won a Cup with the Pens. He then became a free agent and I had hoped the Devils would sign him. Penner maybe with the Ducks? Can't think of anyone else at the moment.

 

[irishwhip03]

Oh yeah totally forgot about Penner.

You also forgot about mentioning Sykora for us, who I believe has 2...one with us and one with the Pens.

 

[irishwhip03]

Do we really see Sykora getting into a game in the finals though? I mean barring injury I cant. Feel bad for him too cause he was injured when he won it with us and in all likelyhood wont see time this series.

You're right though he still brings the leadership factor.

Not a chance. JJ has been playing pretty well and obviously the 4th line is worth it's weight in gold. Poni isn't going out either after the OT helper.

Most likely not....but he does have some rings, is still practicing with the team and pretty sure he helps with talking to the youngsters. His experience will still help.

Maybe a mentalilty dropp off... i mean the rangers were very exhausting in itself..

however, completely different style that we can take advantage of.

Deboer will have our boys ready...

Parise mentioned in his interview on the ice that they will enjoy the moment but go back to work tomorrow by looking at videos of LA play.

PDB and the coaching staff will have a game plan and will have this team ready to play.
