Eastern Conference Finals

Wow...moving on!!  Big win and solid series with the Flyers.  This is not your father's Devils team.  They are deeper than the damn trap that they are consistently accused of.  The forwards were swarming on the forecheck like nasty killer bees.  The Flyers were so incredibly confused and frustrated in this series, which was evident.    Oh and how sweet is was for Marty to win on his birthday.
I do wonder, however, how good a few days off is for the boys.  I like being the hot team and staying hot moving right along to the next.  Of course, the Rangers are needing a 7th game to get through the Caps and who knows who will win.  A Hudson River series would be wild and I'm sure the NY media is salivating at the thought.  Personally, I wouldn't mind if the Rangers lose game 7 and we don't even have to deal with them or their blueshirt invasion.  ...and how about those Kings out west??
All of this is great for a team struggling financially so it will be interesting to see what the off-season news is like.  Hopefully, we can keep Zach around, but that's for the summer.  Bring on the Caps/Rags.
STILL....not a Devils fan in sight around here, but at least, the orange shirts and jerseys will go into hiding until next year!
