So Boston/Washington, predictions?
I honestly don't care, I hate them both semi equally although hating Boston is part of a New Yorker's DNA.

Lundqvist, Rinne, Quick Vezina finalists
Teams don't have success without high-quality goaltending, so it's no surprise the New York Rangers, Los Angeles Kings and Nashville Predators have done so well this season.
The Rangers' Henrik Lundqvist, the Kings' Jonathan Quick and the Predators' Pekka Rinne have been named finalists for this year's Vezina Trophy, awarded "to the goalkeeper adjudged to be the best at his position" as voted by the general managers of each of the 30 clubs.
The winner will be announced at the 2012 NHL Awards Show, June 20 at the Encore Theater at Wynn Las Vegas.

Thank you for that. I just can't believe how it was "missed" that he steam shoveled him out of the crease, forget the kick.
How about this:
http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/hoc...dent-in-game-6
Rangers coach John Tortorella said "No comment" in a conference call Tuesday about the incident between Ottawa wing Milan Michalek and defenseman Dan Girardi during Game 6, as well as Senators wing Chris Neil's warning to defenseman Michael Del Zotto.
In the third period of the Rangers' 3-2 win, CBC footage showed Michalek appearing to kick Girardi twice in the fracas in front of the net that led to Ottawa's controversial second goal. Players have been suspended for similar actions this season.
Following the game, Neil, whose hit gave Brian Boyle a concussion in Game 5, was not pleased with Del Zotto after the Rangers defenseman hit Neil in the third period. It took Neil a few minutes to get up before he skated off on his own.
"I'm sure I'll catch him with his head down one of these times," Neil said according to reports.
Seems like he is saying he intends to injure.

1) Shanahan looked at the tape of the Michalek/Girardi "incident" (after Torts
complained to the league) and declared there was no kick, so no hearing.
2) Del Zotto pasted Neil pretty damn good! It was a clean hit - no whining
from Neil. I think he was just reminding us of a favorite biblical passage:
"As ye sow - so shall ye reap!"

He hits anything that moves and many that don't. Kinda shocking he does not expect the favor be returned.

He never says anything about intentionally trying to injure anyone, he's just saying if he has the opportunity to check you when you had your head down he's going to do it.

Considering how he has played saying that without meaning he will get even/hurt him is like saying I'll be converting oxygen into CO2 all day.

I guess your video explains it. I don't hang on Kings losses. Was the stick illegal? If so he deserved to be penalized for it.
I don't think after he had been using it the whole series and got a goal was the time to penalize for it but it happened, over a decade ago. Time to move on.
