Here is a classy Ranger fan at their best classless idiot!

Hoping Rangers go to seven and loose in overtime in the last seconds just to really demoralize their fans! 

Arrested.  https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/rangers-fan-arrested-for-brutal-sucker-punch-of-tampa-fan-after-game-5-loss/3729041/

Are you an Isles guy?

Does it matter? Yes I’m an islander fan 

Well you're dogging Rangers fan so I figured there must be something there.  The only fans I don't like are Flyers fans. 

Anyone who assaults another fan even if it’s an Islander fan I want the book thrown at them and banned from Arena permanently! 

Yea but you wouldn't want to demoralize Isles fans if it was one of them who did the same is what he was getting at

Ok point taken! Just that fan lol 

Sabres are retiring Ryan Miller's number 30 next season.

Extremely low bar for such an honor.  Christ almighty

I'm guessing it's because he has the most wins in the Sabres career

Wins now are an oversaturated stat for teams and goalies.  He played his entire career starting the moment they abolished ties and instituted the shootout.  
Also, the Sabres are a relative black hole for goalies historically other than Hasek.  

Basically, Miller won a Vezina and Olympic silver in 1 really elite season.  He had 2 decent playoff runs that neither resulted in a cup nor a wales trophy.  Other than that, he was an above average goalie.  He also had a knack for letting in really soft goals in critical situations.

Tampa vs Colorado 
should be a good series I have no rooting interest at all just want good clean hockey! 

For sure….probably the two best teams….even though it’s not the Final I would have liked to see. I’ll root for the Avs but would have rather seen a Canadian team get through.

Nice run for the Rangers but glad they lost. I have no preference to who wins but TB has won the last two, so kinda rooting for the Avs.

You should root for the Lightning and history.  

This should be a great series! The Avs who have the ability to score at will vs The Lightning who just seem to know how to make the right adjustments (and aren't terrible offensively). Goaltending just might be the deciding factor here.

Nah, we need that Isles streak of 19 consecutive series in sports to last forever!

I still remember the '06 run when the sabres basically lost because of that idiotic puck over the glass penalty.

might not have been 19 if Leon Stickle didn't have the worse non-call in the history of sports.

Two counts of assault, disorderly and banned from MSG for life.

I thought for sure the victim was seriously hurt the way he hit the floor! He’s a lucky man
