Yesterday at end of 2nd I said, "time to work your magic." Texted my wife to ask if she wanted to go to the game on saturday. Hit send, and I knew we were good.
On a serious note, they have been the best comeback team in the league this year and "momentum" can shift VERY quickly. Hence why the analytics people do not believe in momentum or players being hot and cold as an indicator of a future outcome.
Ok, fair enough.
So maybe the three of us in this thread putting those emotional posts up in-game contributed in some cosmic way to the comeback then lol.
I'm rooting for the Bruins hard tonight. Even if the Panthers end up winning the series, I want the Rangers to have an edge on the rest/recovery/practice front. At this stage in the playoffs every day matters IMO. I remember when we beat the Hurricanes in seven in the second round two years ago and then had to start the series against the Lightning two days later. Yes, we did get up 2-0 in that series, but we were pretty worn out by game three. Hopefully that won't be the case this time.
That win was magical last night though. Definitely one of the most thrilling I have seen from this team in 40 years as a fan.
