    I used to not mind the Coyotes. The dislike of them developed in these playoffs.

      If the Coyotes can keep this up Quebec will have a good team in a couple years.

        They did...but the handshake had to be forcibly ended by other teammates.

          Based on Bradley-Terry rankings (i.e., KRACH) found here, the updated (after 5/22) most likely outcomes are:

          LAK in 5 (100%)
          NYR in 6 (31.1%)

          Overall winning probabilities:
          PHX 0.00% - LAK 100.0%
          NYR 58.6% - NJD 41.4%

          As always, KRACH is not a perfect predictive system. In fact, it's not predictive at all; it's retrodictive. Home-ice advantage, momentum, and the like can not be accounted for reliably, so they are ignored.

          Remarks: The team that was among the least likely to make the Cup finals (if not the least likely, given the road they took) has done just that.

          Next Round possibilities:

              Did they already have the appeal for his suspension, or will that take place after the Cup finals?

                Seriously? SERIOUSLY? How many goals can a team score by flinging the puck toward the net and getting lucky bounces?

                  They should add to all playoff suspensions that your name is off the Cup without an appeal. Watch those suckers clean their game up in .22 seconds.

                    Rangers finally woke up but was it too late?

                    They weren't short of chances between Gaborik missing the wide open net as well as staal's shot.

                      I like that idea, though it's the kind of thing that everyone would flip out about because it's do harsh. Maybe if it were limited to multi-game suspensions.

                      Edit: Keith Jones is right that the Rangers seem to be looking for penalties. It's especially bad when you consider that the one immutable law of hockey is that the Devils will get away with almost everything. It doesn't generally lead so directly to a goal as Gionta high-sticking Stepan in the face, though.

                        I'm not convinced that that's not a kick.

                          Agreed.

                          If this game was in NJ, I'd be madder how this game is turning, but for right now I'm just a little peeved.

                            It was almost certainly a kick. However, the Devils first goal (Gionta) should never have happened, so I suppose the game is where it should be...a one goal lead for New Jersey.
