We're doing fine

Off to a good start, one might say.
If someone said that to me I'd say: Yes. But there is a long way to go. Four victories in as many matches is a nice start for the Rangers. But there are many teams to overcome if we are going to see the Blueshirts in the playoffs.

Look at me go, I'm talking about playoffs already. No. Let's focus on tonight instead. A nice little thing with the Devils is brewing. I wonder if we get to see Stephen Valiquette in net tonight. I'm thinking...no.

Henrik Lundqvist is a magnificent goalie and on the other side of the ice tonight, there will be yet another one. Martin Brodeur is a true great. He is still one of the best goalies in the entire sport and he will, for sure, do his outmost to stop the Rangers tonight. But will he succeed?

Nope. There will be a fierce battle. And rest assured, the Rangers won't be allowed to slip away in the first period as they were against the Flyers on Saturday. The likes of Nick Zherdev, Markus Naslund and captain Chris Drury will have their artillery loaded. Not to mention former Devil hitman Scott Gomez, who spent his first seven seasons in New Jersey.

Watch out though. The Devils has got a few guys able to hit the net. Brian Rolston is still lethal. Patrick Elias and John Madden as well.

The Devils @ The Rangers in the Garden. Boy, I envy those of you able to be there to watch it.
I say: The Rangers will win it, but by a slim margin. 3-2. No OT.

A big congratulations to Lukas Kaspar of the San Jose Sharks. He scored the only goal against the Kings, thus earning his first NHL career goal! CONGRATULATIONS!
