Xnightwish and MartysBetter seem to be some bitter children. Everyone else has been able to speak normal about the game, then here comes the temper twins lol. Just relax, talk hockey. You are the definitions of what people online call trolls, it's post like yours that get away from the good hockey talk and just turns into insults back and forth.

you're right.. as i admitted.. and i quote,
"I need to join them on their vacation. Obviously this matchup has me rattled.. and will continue to make me ridiculous until its over with NJ on top. "

i'm usually fairly levelheaded.. as i hope my comrades can attest to. if not, then i'm hopeless.

idk what i've said thats trolling any Rags fans. I've mostly just been defending my team because i feel the onslaught of a Rangers win. People write it off as just 1 game. but to me, when you're playing a great team like NY, being up 1-0 is good.. being own 1-0 is horrible. if we go down 2-0 we're done. win 4 out of the following 5 games? against NY!?? not going to happen.
If NY wins tomorrow, we're through.

alright alright, after skimming my posts.. some were alright, some were over the top.

but its the Conference Finals against its the biggest rivalry in my life. rags fans are everywhere in NJ. its bitter.. its deep. I hear it from everyone.

i'm anxious. we're down 1-0. and i'm usually stressed at work when i type this stuff... cuz i work at a house with literally crazy people. its stressful.

i've talked hockey, lineups, this and that, for paragraphs and paragraphs on here for the last.. 2 years.

i've been nice and have tried to avoid trolling for 2 years.
i've been through a huge breakup, graduated college, found some jobs, and have maintained a long distance relationship in the last 2 years.
....but u didn't need to know that.
i get more ridiculous and entertaining as i get more tired. its been a long week.

Its all emotion now, sadly. Maybe tomorrow i'll talk hockey. But whats to say? we put so much pressure on them and got a win.. woo go Devils! or.. ah crap they're so good at blocking shots, we couldn't get anything past Hank.. we need to do this that and the other to correct it.

i'm fried from analyzing. i just want to get through this series. This is more of a circus than anything for me. Its not about the hockey. its about just beating the Rangers in the conference finals. Its about shedding the shadow. Its about finally being free!

no one sees me like this because we've never been in this position. But its the truth, we've been in the '94 shadow since.. '94. We have our Cups, but no head to head triumph in such a huge series. We have nothing to balance out NY's head to head victory.
its sad.
its something we've lived with for years.
and we may not have another chance, with Brodeur, ever again.
sure the Rags don't have Richter anymore.. but Lundqvist is even better in my opinion, Brodeur is at his end... and it would be great to come out of this on top with "Marrrrtyyyy" in net.

so thats where I"m coming from. .. and damnit i ended up writing an essay anyway.

and it pains me to admit this...but this is probably true...the kings are absolutely phenomenal these playoffs and barring a breakdown by quick i see them sweeping the yotes and taking down the devils/rangers in 5
- Xnightwish

Yeah. I'm not being a homer, nor a troll when I say that.

But the Kings have been dominant against all opposition in the playoffs and are playing a couple levels above every other team.

Just as a hockey fan, screw being a Kings fan, but as a hockey fan, the Kings are pulling off one of the greatest runs in history right now. Losing this (or Lord Stanley willing next round) will negate it all, so I hope they can keep it together and bring one home finally.

This has to be the worst message board thread of the year. Blatant homerism, trolling, Rammstein, break-ups? I know I'm not helping by pointing out the obvious, but can we talk about actual hockey?

According to reports the Devils will play Parise and Kovalchuk together again with Zajacj centering...our top pair will meet this challenge ans well as the forward units that will be out there, my guess is Boyler and Prust and the USA line will draw that assignment much of the night leaving our fastest and most potent line to go up against their second and third units...it will be interesting and DeBoer doing what he needs to do and that is generate as much offense as you can as early as you can...

Edit...that was meant for the Rangers thread...lol...didn't mean to troll...
