I don't think anybody is watching anymore.

Wanna bet?  Everyone here is watching it.  I was enjoying an outside dinner during the Chicago series, and could hear chearing drifting in from all over the neighborhood. 

We're still paying attention.
I'm sure Detroit is still watching, but nobody else is.

CB and I watched the game last night at a sports bar.  Every time the Penguins took a shot on goal some woman there screamed with terror as if the poltergeists were just about to club her.  After about ten minutes into the first I was hoping the poltergeists would show up.

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Sweden is watching.

Probably not. The team they had pushed Washington to seven games, who in turn pushed the Pens to seven games. The East is really close, and if NY adds just one or two of the right sort of players, and Lundqvist continues to mature it could be a long season in the MSG.

Might stop him from hiring his Edmonton buddies.

Miroslav Satan was spooking her.

cap or no cap, my impression of the NYR/Sather philosophy is to try to add those "one or two of the right sort of players" through FA. results have varied, to put it nicely.

To be fair, it seems that the Rangers have improved their strategy.  They make better use of free agency than they used to, and they actually have a development system now.  You don't seem them paying elite-level money for every player on a small-market team that has one good season.

Then Torts might not have to use overpaid old timers instead of up & coming kids.
