Maybe the Rangers should try doing a pre-game show.
Their hockey sure ain't entertaining.

Vegkin sure looked different tonight. :like

As I said, the road to The Cup goes through Hockeyburgh, USA. Knights had to steal their goal tender from Puckburgh in an expansion draft. The Swamp City Crapitals had to beat the Pens to get there. Two best teams to make the playoffs this year are the Pens and Crapitals.

I don't agree those were the best two teams to make the playoffs, but what do I know, both that are playing for the Cup would have been in the top three of playoff teams that I would have picked as being the least likely to making it this far.

If you watched the NHL the whole year, the Jets were better.

Anyone that knows a thing about hockey knows that it doesn't matter what happens during the regular season, or the long and grueling pre-season as I call it. The only thing that matters is making it to the playoffs for the real season. Vegas is the best out of the West, with a goalie that learned his trade in Hockeyburgh, USA.

I have a feeling you misunderstood what I was saying, I didn't feel Pens or Caps were the best two teams from the quote above. I didn't watch enough Western games to feel like I know who was the best team out there (but for games I did watch, the Preds looked great, but I had picked the Jets to go to the finals), I'm with F.A.S.T., it's not the best regular season that typically wins the Cup. I felt there wasn't much of a chance of the Knights (nor Caps nor Blue Jackets) to make the finals, I would have picked any of the other Western teams instead of the Knights (that's why I wrote "what do I know").
