Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown, Shakespeare said - and for the third straight game, those words will ring all too true for the Rangers' king; Henrik Lundqvist will be sitting again tonight with rookie Cam Talbot getting the start

A season that has to qualify as a disappointment ended in the Boston TD Garden, as the Bruins wore out the Rangers, and dusted off the Blueshirts 3-1 in game 5 of the eastern conference semi finals

The Rangers were a dangerous team heading into the playoffs.  Star goalie, Rick Nash's supposed Broadway playoff hunger, depth, last year's experience of losing in the conference finals, the magic of Madison Square Garden

Goaltending-depth-star scoring-special teams.  Those are the four keys to a Stanley Cup run.  The Rangers certainly have the first one, even if Henrik Lundqvist had a bad Game 2 against the Bruins.  Other than the goalie though, the Blueshirts are in trouble.

Waaaaaah. that's the gurgling sound coming from Washington. The poor little Caps still crying about the officiating in game 6 of their 7 game loss to the New York Rangers in the eastern conference 1st round

LeBron James (now), Sidney Crosby, Albert Pujols (while with the Cardinals), baseball's Giants as a team, Derek Jeter through the years, Mariano Rivera, Eli Manning, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Mark Messier, Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, Henrik Lundqvist and plenty more.  You get the picture.  When these guys step-up, their teams win and advance.

The Rangers and Bruins both won Game 7's in Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  New York, in less dramatic fashion, dominated Washington 5-0 to win the only road game of the series.  Boston, down 4-1 to Toronto, rallied back with three goals in less than 11 minutes, two of which came in the final minutes with a pulled goalie, and won in overtime 5-4.  Now the Rangers and Bruins, these two Original 6 teams in two huge markets, are set-up for a Round 2 clash that could be one for the ages.  New York and Boston yet again in sports.  Here is a series preview.

The word and the number together are special.  Game 7.  All the marbles.  All the blood, sweat and tears.  Move on or go home.  And there is no tomorrow.  Game 7 might be the best thing we have in sports, especially in hockey.

With the exception of 1 season, 1993-94, when they hoisted the Stanley Cup, Ranger fans know the feeling of a season ending too soon. After dropping a heart breaking 2-1 overtime decision in Washington on Friday night, that sinking feeling is bubbling to the surface again

When my time comes and I shall pass on I am thinking my death certificate will list cause of death "Watching Ranger Playoff Hockey."

And so that pretty much sums up game 4 at Madison Square Garden

Ok Ranger fans you can breathe now. Wow what a heart stopper game 3 of the eastern conference quarter finals was. The Rangers held on, or perhaps better yet, the clock ran out on the Washington Capitals who ended the game with a power play chance that became a 2 man advantage when they pulled net minder Bradan Holtby but the clock ran out and the Rangers held on-barely beating the Caps 4-3 and pulled to within 2-1 in the best of 7
