Ideal Playoff Opponents for Rangers

Adam Proteau at The Hockey News looks at the the ideal conference and Cup final opponent for each NHL franchise...

New York Rangers
Ideal Conference Final Opponent: New York Islanders
Ideal Cup Final Opponent: Detroit
Why? One hopes the Isles and Blueshirts could meet again just to bring closure to the “Potvin Sucks!” chants. But who’s kidding who – Rangers fans are never letting that crap go.

...i would love to hear Proteau's reasoning on why Red Wings in the finals? I guess the whole "Original Six" thing.

Adam Proteau is REALLY reaching for column ideas now, huh?

Off topic, Claude Julien stole Torts' "safe is death" mantra. Doesn't he know how that worked out?
