I look for the Rangers to make it to the conference finals either against the Bolts or Buffalo. The Sean Avery trade turned out to be the right medicne for their ailing attitude. He's really provided the spark they needed for aggressive play. Although most consider him as a dirty player you can't argue with the results.

Sure an occasional shot from the point is going to be just fine. Last night there were way too many selfish Dan Boyle Filip Kuba rips from the Blue line. The resuls were that they got caught caught pinching too deep way too often. Brodeur can't be beat that way. Get him moving from side to side by playing behind the net. Confuse him and get him worring about Vinny. Tim Taylor had the right idea, just didn't have the puch in his line to get the job done. Defensemen are going to have to play as defensemen.
