Staal may have scored the OT winner, but he won that game by breaking up a Capitals 3-on-1 in the 3rd.

You're damn right, that was a great play.  It's been awesome seeing him return to form...just in time.
I didn't know how to act after Richards' goal, I went from being on the verge of punching something to out of my mind happy in a few seconds.

 

[youngin33]

Oh man. What a game. West finals could be set if coyotes win here.

Ive been wondering, is Gabriel Bourque for the Preds the son of Ray Borque who won the Stanley Cup with the Avalanche years back?
Finally got the puck in there. C'mon just one more.

Edit: Dammit

Ray has two children: Chris and Ryan. Chris plays for the Capitals AHL affiliate, the Hershey Bears, and Ryan is in the Rangers system, playing for the Connecticut Whale. I remember Ryan playing really well for the US WJHC team a couple of years ago.

Congrats to the Yotes.. More happy for Doan. and Oliver Ekman-Larsson.. who has probably one of the sickest names in the NHL 

the LA v PHX series is gonna be a good one.

agree 100%

That was the hardest/worst loss I've ever experienced as a fan of all the teams that I pull for. I'm still at a loss for words.

If BB was coaching, I'd say that this was gonna be over in 6 for the Rangers coming off a win like they had in game 5. However, they've shown the ability to bounce back after a loss under Dale Hunter, so my gut says this is going 7.

 

[duba169]

Yeah the rangers need to show up. They looked terrible for most of game 4.

 

[scarsorscabs]

I like Hagelin a lot, he's a lot of fun to watch but I'm so glad Joel Ward is a d%$k and made Hagelin bleed. What's been a poor power play for forever got ignited when their backs were against the wall. Good timing.

 

[winged wheel]

DoubleJs don't be surprised if last nights loss is the last loss of the series for the Caps. I think last nights debacle will motivate them to take the next two.

Kings - Yotes is going to be a battle, can't wait until game 1.

 

[mez 0ne]

I never realized how close that was to not even being a goal since I was jumping around like an idiot....but

 

[hymen man]

What a great game last night.

One more boys

Man, I hope so.

You have no idea how steamed I was after the loss last night.  Usually sports don't get to me like this, but it was different.  Woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, and I was still thinking about the loss....couldn't listen to the radio in my car this mornign going to work, because I was still PO'd.  I'm OK with it now JUST because the series isn't over.  We've come back from a 3-1 hole to the Rangers before, so it's not totally out of the realm of possibility that they win tomorrow and force a game 7.

That loss last night was rock bottom.  Only way to go is up.  I expect them to come out on fire tomorrow night.  I'm confident we're going 7 games in this series.
