The teams traded wins for games 1-4, and the Rangers are down 3-2 heading back to New Jersey. Eerily similar to 1994, the first playoff series I ever watched.

Does anyone on the Rangers have the balls to make a game 6 Mark Messier guarantee? I'd love to see it.

Bill Clinton is retired

Steve Jobs is dead

O.J. is in jail

The Simpons are stale and old and coming off their worst episode ever.

The Dallas Cowboys are a joke

Windows 3.1 no longer works

Martin Brodeur is no longer a fresh faced rookie

Mark Messier, Brian Leetch and Mike Richter are not walking through that door.

In other words THIS IS NOT 1994!!!!

Thanks for the update Tank. For a second there I thought I was still in 2nd grade.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Thanks for that. You're right, it's not 1994, but that doesn't mean the end result can't be the same.

That's when most Rags fans mental growth ends, anyway...

I can't wait for Kurt Cobain to blow his head off again...

The series is similar, minus the fact that almost every NHL player these days just talks in cliches and wouldn't have the stones to guarantee a win

Well, it is 2012 by my reckoning. I may have said this already, but - a team named Devils wins the Cup, and six months later...well...

At least this would give both LA-area teams fans something to lament about together. I honestly think New York's still going to pull this series out, however, and not because of the resemblance to 1994 we're seeing right now. New York's been a tough-ass team to knock out (3-0 in elimination games) and I honestly think they aren't losing Game 7 at MSG, in spite of their awful home record so far in the playoffs.

Doesn't mean Prudential Center won't be rocking on Friday night, though. Devils haven't had a chance to reach the Final in nine years, and those fans will be going nuts.

While I understand the notion that the Coyotes are owned by the league, so they'd be getting favored, we shouldn't pretend that the NHL didn't circle LA vs. NY on it's bracket a long freaking time ago. Nor should we doubt they would act on it.

Both ideas are completely ridiculous.

When will people realize that refs/leagues fixing sports events is not only ludicrous, but next to impossible to put in practice (inconspicuously, that is). In a game like hockey, nothing short of a blatantly obvious travesty of officiating would have to happen for a team to be "guaranteed" to win. And I think we can all agree the last thing the NHL needs right now is to risk trying to fix games, even if it does mean putting two mega markets against each other.

It wouldn't be the first time a playoff series involving a team named the Kings has been rigged.

FYP
