tjackson76 the yankees are tougher than the islanders, youuuuu asshole!

[tjackson76]

@MrStones64 Listen Asshole, stop talking about baseball, I havn't watched baseball since 1993. But I do know that the Yankee's have to buy all their championships. Oh and any hockey player can kick any baseball players ass so don't say they're tougher thats a fuckin joke just like your comments.

[MrStones64]

the yankees win championships more often than the icelanders..

[tjackson76]

@MrStones64 This is hockey, No one here cares about your boring pussy sport.

RARE VID OF BILLY SMITH SHAKING HANDS OF PLAYOFF SERIES

Lanny is a little underrated and Trottier is somewhat overrated .

@dzanier

You are correct.

Great old school stuff!

Up 1 game to 0 with a 2-0 lead early in Game 2 so much was going well for us. If we win the OT game. the 4th game where Serge Savard scored for them to win it, maybe we win the series. The Rangers actually matched up pretty well with Montreal. If we'd gotten the Bruins maybe we would've won.

I respect your opinion but I don't agree with you. It's shear denial to not admit the Islanders had a great team. Believe me, when we played them and lost it hurt and to watch them win 4 straight while we always lost to them on their way to winning the cup was painful. Presently, they are a third rate organization, but that rivalry is part of the fabric of metro-area pro pro hockey. That 's why I want them to stay. I'd forgotten about JD's bad knee. Montreal was ripe for picking in 79

@dzanier If you are true Ranger Fan since I am since 1962, you never have anything good to say about the Islanders. I hope they move. I'm sick of that 3rd rate org. playing in the biggest market in the country. I was at all 3 home games at the 79 semi final. I will never forget Potvin sitting in the doorway at the end. JD had a bad knee or else they would have beat the Habs in 6 and we would have not had to wait 15 years for the lame 1940 crap to end.

The 79 Islanders were the best islander team that didn't win it. Potvin: Norris Trophy & 101 pts. Bossy: league-leading 69 goals. Trottier: led the league in points & won the Hart Trophy. I'm a Ranger fan but I've no problem admitting the Isles were superior to us in 79, but for some reason the Rangers matched up well. The 78-79 Islander team won 51 lost 15 & tied 14. Only 3 home losses. Kind of a shame they didn't make the Finals & play Montreal. That would've been one whale of a match up.
