2014 Stanley Cup Finals - I'm so Anze about how Quick Hank is, I'm Nashing my teeth!!

Losing a game like that is just a gut punch. Especially when you have to deal with an insufferable a-hole co-worker that loves the Kings and runs you down at every chance. Fitting end to a terrible week.

Probably the same feeling everyone at the office gets when they have to listen to you drone on about the same things over and over, for months and years.

I'd like to see those #@!*&% Kings suffer some real consequences for falling behind early -- before this season is over!

Still waiting...

That was a fun game. Now I'd like to see the Rangers take both at MSG to make it interesting.

It's a weird game and a weirder series. Kings up 2 - 0 and have not led for a single second.

The 3rd period and the OTs looked like a free for all. Even the announcer said it was "chaos on the ice."

Good catch.

With that fact called to my attention, a small part of me hopes it happens in the next two games as well. OK, it's a small percentage. But it would certainly make for an excellent trivia question in the years ahead.

Heck, a 4-0 series with all games going to O.T. is likely unprecedented. Add the "winner never led" component, and the odds against must be astronomical...

Taking it one step further: Suppose the Kings win tonight in 3 O.T., then wrap things up Wednesday in 4 O.T. -- still having never held the lead?

EDIT: Kings lead 1-0. /Fanciful Scenario.

Okay, the Kings are leading a game in this series for the first time. Let's see how well they handle it.

Is there any doubt that the Kings are on about the most "fortunate" (won't call it lucky) playoff run ever.


Not saying they aren't good or that you don't make your own luck to some extent, but I've never seen a team have more fortunate bounces and puck luck than this team has during these playoffs.

They score with .5 seconds left?

After all of the other bounces, seeing-eye shots and deflections/blocks that go right to a wide open team mate's stick that have resulted in goals these playoffs?


Just give em the Cup now. It's their year.

And they get another bounce. 2-0.

Again... not saying they aren't good or don't deserve to be winning, but there have been plenty of really hard working teams that didn't win jack.

Re: 2014 Stanley Cup Finals - I'm so Anze about how Quick Hank is, I'm Nashing my tee

Mike Richards gets a bounce. 3-0.

Re: 2014 Stanley Cup Finals - I'm so Anze about how Quick Hank is, I'm Nashing my tee

For Game 4 the Rangers are going to dress Daenarys Targaryen's three dragons and the two giants from north of the wall.

And still lose...

They did that in 2012 as well
