and in the grand scope of things it means what exactly if you don't win the Cup? Nothing. We should know that.

They aren't the ultimate goal but winning those is hardly not "winning jack poop" and are tangible measures of success.

Exactly. Numbnuts can't seem to grasp that.

I'm from New Rochelle and I HATE every New York team. Most New Yorkers and tri-state residents think they are the center of the universe.

That's the truth right there. Regular season just sets the stage. Playoffs are the defining act that everyone remembers.

That remains to be seen. It's just funny seeing clowns like Oneonta and bartley chirp when the odds are against the Rangers and then disappear when it's time to eat crow.

So you are referring to you on this board after game 2 of our series??

Just like Keyser Soze - poof & you're gone!

Don't get it twisted...I would trade my little brothers life for one Stanley cup. But his statement was that the Rangers haven't won jack poop and that statement is WRONG and that's what I'm calling him out for.

He is producing in AZ.
Just projecting his stats and making some assumptions.
In his past 3 years his PPG are:
.54
.62
.62

With Sid or Malkin I guessed he gets another 15 points in an 82 game season pushing him up to .79 or 65 pts.

Those are top line numbers in my opinion, especially when you consider how low the point totals were for the top guys this year.

This has been the biggest problem with the Pens... they overpay and expect 3rd line players to become high level scorers when paired up with Crosby or Malkin. They need to get legit scorers who can produce on their own to compliment the top 2 lines. Same thing happens every year in the playoffs. Teams focus solely on shutting down 87 & 71 and their linemates can't produce anything with the extra space they get.

Not only that but when they put up those points (by virtue of playing with Crosby) they get overvalued contracts, see Kunitz & Dupuis.
