When the Rangers took the 3-1 lead all I could think was, please dont let up, please dont let up, for the love of god please dont let up.? Well, the hooking and bench minors we are taking certainly point to letting up.? The Sabers are playing a sloppy game and yet are only down by 1.? But the Rangers, till they took the 3-1 lead, were playing excellent hockey and earned the lead through hard work which led to legit calls.? So far the reffing, I would say, has been damn good, very even.? The Sabers are giving the Rangers a lot of respect in their own zone, which is helping us out a lot.? Teams that pressure the Rangers to cough up the puck, get just that, teams that let the Rangers read the play, get screwed.? Im sure Ruff will be saying just that to his guys during the 2nd intermission.? The key to this game is to not give up a goal early in the 3rd.? As long as we can kill of the powerplay, and play good smart hockey, we can win this, just dont let up or get cocky.? We may be winning, but the Sabers overcame a 3 goal defecit with unders 6 minutes to play just this week.? Trust me, it aint over till its over.
