Looking like the Kings will get 2 put of 3 Cups. I think the series with the Blackhawks was the real Stanley Cup Finals.

" I observed this analyst on an American network predicting that if the LA Kings managed to win the second game of the series and go up 2 zip; then the New York Rangers wouldn't return to Los Angeles in this Stanley Cup Final."
I'm now beginning to think, after reflecting on that huge game three LA Kings shutout of the NY Rangers in a building (MSG) where the Rangers have come through over and over and that again this season.
That .... that analyst that didn't make a lot of sense to me after game two is looking like a talented predictor.
The New York Rangers looked really bad inspite of all the shots they had or is it that Mr. Quick is just so huge in the LA Kings net !? I believe I heard that Quick had a 0.970 save percentage entering game three of these Stanley Cup Finals. Then he shuts out the Rangers! This man is playing "lights out great" as the Los Angelas Goalie.
I don't believe I've ever seen better goaltending in the playoffs. I'll check that out:

The Los Angelas Kings have this series in the bag. I hope it ends mercifully tomorrow night.

New York Rangers vs. L.A. Kings: Previewing Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals
June 9, 2014 11:37 pm EDT by Casey Drottar
" Coming into the Stanley Cup Finals, a lot of people were of the firm belief that we were about to see a back-and-forth battle between the New York Rangers and Los Angeles Kings. As of tonight, a lot of people are wrong.
After two dramatic overtime wins, the Kings decided there was no need for theatrics in Game 3, convincingly beating New York 3-0. The score of tonight’s game now reflects the series, as L.A. is up 3-0 over the Rangers. What many thought would be an evenly matched contest is now looking like it’s over just three bouts in. " Fr.

Rangers focused solely on winning Game 4 vs. Kings

Comment woodbuck27:
That's a proper focus.
It's time for the Rangers top four players to come out of their "zero Points collectively" slump and contribute tonight.
Martin St. Louis, Derek Stepan, Rick Nash and Brad Richards have been held off the score sheet through three games.

Getting it done or finishing off an opponent in the Stanley Cup Finals isn't an east task and that's where were at right now.
The New York Rangers did manage to return the series to Los Angeles.
With 14 minutes remaining in the third period, the Rangers lead the Kings 2-1, scoring 2 unanswered goals in the second period including the go ahead marker with less than a minute remaining in the period.

Marian Gaborik just scored his 14th goal of these playoffs to knot the score at two.
There's about 10 minutes remaining in the third period.
The Los Angeles fans are into it again and hopeful that their Kings will get it done tonight.

....It had to come to this again for what? .... the 26th time in these playoffs.
OVERTIME again and the LA Kings under pressure in their end just took a penalty and the Rangers go to their power play. They already have one power play goal.
Hang on !
No nothing there although the the rangers had splendid opportunities especially defenseman McDonough. 8 mins into OT the play is furious back and forth action.
This is as it's been throughout the playoffs ...GREAT hockey and now
9:51 remains in the first OT period.

Their now into the second Overtime period and Mae is going nuts with all the excitement. Mae is a furious hockey fan. She's seriously intense....a real hoot.
The Rangers just went on another power play. Damn they just hit another goal post and are doing everything but put this game away....send it back home to new York.
I hope the Rangers win as this is as good as it gets for hockey. The King fans are totally into it now.
If their team loses it will be heartbreak in Los Angeles tonight. The Rangers sure have some fight in them.
Lord Steve Nash missed an open net...a game winning goal slips by.
Stay tuned. There's 10:30 remaining in this 2nd OT period.

Well it's finally over as LA Kings Defenseman Alex Martinez scores another big game winner to win it all for his team the Los Angeles Kings.
The Stanley Cup belongs to the Los Angeles KINGS for the second time in three seasons. The 121st Stanley Cup winner.

The Stanley Cup.
That was absolutely breathtaking overtime play; a goal just ended the best playoffs I can ever recall experiencing.

The Los Angeles KINGS Win the Stanley Cup with a Double Overtime Winning Goal by Defenseman Alex Martinez In Victory over the New York Rangers in Game Five
6/14/2014 9:26:16 AM
LOS ANGELES --
" The Los Angeles Kings won the Stanley Cup the hard way, ending their marathon playoff run with a double overtime thriller.
A post-season that started with the Kings having to dig themselves out of a three-game hole against San Jose ended Friday night in a 3-2 double-overtime triumph over the New York Rangers to seal their second Cup in three seasons.
The final lasted five games, with three going to overtime -- including two double OT contests. It was the only playoff series that didn't go the distance for the Kings. " Fr. LINK
