A whole different Rangers team showed up last night.
Series tied 2-2 heading back to NY.
In other news I'm noticing a few differences around the league with regard to hockey fans in Winnipeg. For one, and this one has sort of bugged me for some time, but what's with all the morons in nearly every arena around the league (except Winnipeg and a few select others) who BANG on the glass? I see no purpose to it at all, and all it seems to do is cause a lot of loud thumping to shoot out of every TV set tuned in to the game.
Then there's those stupid horns. I'm looking at you Washington, as well as Pittsburgh, St. Louis, and even Calgary does it. That annoying hornblowing idiot in the crowd. I can assure you we in Winnipeg don't need some twat blowing a horn to get us to cheer on our Jets. Thank gawd they don't do that shit here.
Speaking of thanking gawd for not doing shit here, I'm also quite happy that nowhere over here in N America do we do that stupid annoying whistling thing they do over in Europe, their equivalent of booing or razzing the other team. I find it not only annoying but it's bad hockey etiquette and flat-out bad manners, and it's the one thing I really loathe about international games.
Back to the playoffs -- Game 4 Ducks @ Blackhawks tonight. Very likely a must-win for Chicago.
