I'm wondering the same thing. It would be nice to have it on my laptop while watching whatever conference final game is on TV.

Nice to see them win last night. Kadri two assists, Colborne/Frattin get goals. Scrivens the shutout. This team is doing well right now,

I don't want Hartley on the Flames but would really want Crawford on the Oilers.

i think personally they "auditioned" to keep their jobs and Carlyle liked I guess what they were doing.

I think they're ok. Arniel was fired after he got twisted around in a post game news conference where he didnt even know the stats for his own guys. I'm not a fan.

I think Gordon could coach again somewhere. Toronto is in ok shape. Carlyle is more hands on. He actually works than delagates like Wilson.

My theory on Tortz is that the media loves him. He animated and funny, shouts and screams, and his press conferences are hysterical. Our opinions are largely informed (or at least influenced) by the media, and because they love him, he gets credit. Every good coach I've had has motivated players, not got mad at them. Yeah, they sometimes yelled and screamed, but not at us, to us.

I think they like him in NY because he embodies the typical angry New Yorker. ***** Tortz (though I'm sure he's a nice guy in real life).

Haha. Thank you. Last night I wanted so badly to post something like this on NHL.com, Facebook, and pretty much every forum I visit.

I think you meant they were owning NY all game, and I definitely agree that you can't single him out.

Gaborik did the right thing by getting in the shooting lane. The puck went around him and got deflected. I'm aware that Gabby needs to be stronger on his skates and players are able to knock him off the puck without much of a fight, but I'm sick of this "Lay down in front of the puck or you're not playing."

Del Zotto is forced to play as a 3rd pairing defensemen because Stu Bickel and Stralman can't be trusted on the Ice together. Emminger should've taken Bickels spot once he came back from being injured, now he'll just be cold and out of place since he hasn't played in a long time.

If the Rangers didn't have a good season, Torts would've been fired. The credit he gets drives me crazy. It only takes 1 bad shift for him to drop players down to the 4th line.

Torts is a fcuking idiot. Your leading scorer (who is on the ice to score, if he plays well in his own end that's a bonus) doesn't need to be sent a message by being benched. Seriously, what kind of counter logic is he going with? Oh we desperately need a goal in the 3rd to tie it? Better keep the guy that scores the most goals on the team off the ice... derp derp derp!

You want to scold your best player? Send him out the ext shift and make him cover for his ass. I'm not saying NY would have won the game for sure if he was in, but they were owning Jersey all game, how can he justify benching Gaborik? Ugh.
