Just Inconsiderate


Come on, Rangers and Capitals.  You’re holding up the show


For those of you caught unawares, three of the four Conference Finalists in the NHL ave been decided.  Los Angeles, Phoenix, and New Jersey are all in.  The fourth is still being determined in the series between the New York Rangers and Washington Capitals.  New York leads the series 3-2, with Game 6 happening tonight.  


It's been an exciting Stanley Cup Playoff season so far.  There have been multiple suspensions for stupid plays, a fine for a stupider play that should have led to a suspension, last year's champs getting surprisingly knocked out in the first round, Jeremy's pick to win the Cup getting bounced in the first round (I'll let you guess which team that was), the Los Angeles Kings becoming the first #8 seed to beat both the #1 seed (Vancouver Canucks) and the #2 seed (St. Louis Blues) in the same playoffs, goals, goaltending, hits, fights, and even a Twitter controversy.  We can only imagine what the third round of the playoffs has in store for us.  

Therein lies the problem.  All we can do is imagine, because the stupid Rangers/Capitals series is still going on, so everybody has to wait.  They really should have had the common courtesy to wrap the series up in 4 or 5 games like the rest of them, but NOOOOO.  And if the Rangers don't finish off Washington in tonight's game, we have to wait until Saturday night for a deciding Game 7.  So let's go guys...wrap this thing up so we can get cracking on Round 3!
