The New York Rangers host the Washington Capitals and hated forward Alex Ovechkin in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference Playoff Series. I wish I was going but will be resigned to watching at home. The Rangers have played Washington very well and have proven they belong in the Playoffs. Each game has been tight and it could have very well been Rangers up 2-1 in the Series. The Blueshirts are going with Sean Avery and Matt Gilroy again as Mats Zuccarello was assigned to the Connecticut Whale on Monday. The Rangers will undoubtedly be ready for tonights game and The Garden faithful will be just as ready. The Capitals’ head coach Bruce Boudreau had this baloney to say:
"Well, the one thing, its reputation is far better than the actual building. I mean, it's nothing. The locker rooms are horrible. The benches are horrible. There's no room for anything. But the reputation of being in Madison Square Garden is what makes it famous. Also, our building's a lot louder, too. So I mean, they can say what they want, but it's not that loud in there."
What a dope. That is an out and out lie. Two truths that Bruce failed to mention are that hockey was a non-issue in Washington prior to the arrival of Alex Ovechkin and that Bruce’s job may hinge on him winning this series. If Bruce somehow keeps his job it will be easier for him to kiss Ovie’s ass after the
Transformation Project at The Garden is completed. Boudreau will have all the room he needs. The head coach continues to whine, alleging Rangers’ forward Brian Boyle is hitting Capitals’ defenseman Mike Green in the head. The bigmouth continues to whine to the officials at every possible minute. While at the game last Sunday Bruce whined to the refs during TV timeouts as well as his star players. I hope the refs are smart enough to call the game fairly and to not let Ovie and Green get away with their antics. This promises to be a great game.
LET’S GO RANGERS!
