Usually when people try and make a game more 'exciting' they end up fucking it up.

Ranger game was terrific hockey. Jagr was getting mugged as usual - but besides that it was a pretty open game. I think the Rangers need to get a little more physical the next game. Atlanta pretty much pushed them around, despite losing.

Yeah definitely no shootouts. A playoff game or series should not be decided on a shootout.

Yeah in the third period Atlanta was clearly playing better. The rangers dominated the first two. The rangers can't let that happen again

Rangers now up 2-0 on Atlanta. Two very close and good games. I hope we can end it in New York.

You play the game 'till you have a winner. No weird 4-4 overtimes, no shoot outs.
Agreed. No way should gimmicky crap like 4-on-4 or a shootout decide something as important as the playoffs. I like it in the regular season so that there are no ties anymore, but in something like the playoffs, keep it 5-on-5. Anyways, I'm really liking the fact that for once there's actually some physical play going on in the postseason. So many previous years, there's a hit after the whistle blows and nothing happens. A borderline hit, and no response. Now there are a lot of great hits, scrums after every whistle, a few fights, and you can tell the players are actually playing with some fire for once in this league.

Agreed...The Shoulder Pads are a huge part of the problem...Go back to the old cushoned ones and they will no longer be knocked out on every other 'big' hit..It's ridiculous...If they dont do this at the end of this year its basically saying they dont care about there players health....I would much rather see a huge hit and the guy get right back up then him lay therre while they bring the stretcher out

So how about that Ranger game tonight. They completely dominated the thrashers. I think they'll end it tomorrow. Atlanta is just showing absolutely no life at all. I said it before the playoffs started. A hot team with a hot goalie is scary to play in the playoffs and the rangers are proving it. They are playing great hockey right now.
