The 1988 Stanley Cup playoffs, the playoff tournament of the National Hockey League (NHL), began on April 6, after the conclusion of the 1987–88 NHL season. It concluded on May 26, with the defending champion Edmonton Oilers defeating the Boston Bruins to win their second straight Stanley Cup and fourth in five years. The Stanley Cup The Presidents' Trophy winning Calgary Flames had home ice advantage during the playoffs thanks in part to Edmonton's struggles without Wayne Gretzky, who missed 16 games due to injury. The Oilers, who had won the Cup in three of the previous four seasons, were still thought to have a good chance at repeating with Gretzky's return. The clash between the Flames and Oilers in the Smythe Division Final was highly anticipated. The New Jersey Devils made the playoffs for the first time since their move from Denver, winning in overtime at Chicago Stadium on the season's final day to edge the New York Rangers for the Patrick Division's fourth spot. This was only the second time they made the playoffs including their Colorado and Kansas City days. The 1988 playoffs most notable moment was the cancellation of game four of the finals in Boston after fog issues, a result of high heat and the subsequent building power outage resulted in the game being canceled outright with the result not counting, yet the league retained player stats from the game. The series would move directly on to Edmonton. Gretzky would go on to set NHL playoff records with 31 assists in 18 games and 13 points in the Stanley Cup Finals. Prince of Wales Conference Adams Division Montreal Canadiens, Adams Division champions, Prince of Wales Conference regular season champions – 103 points Boston Bruins – 94 points Buffalo Sabres – 85 points Hartford Whalers – 77 points Patrick Division New York Islanders, Patrick Division champions – 88 points Washington Capitals – 85 points (38 wins, 9 points head-to-head vs. Philadelphia) Philadelphia Flyers – 85 points (38 wins, 5 points head-to-head vs. Washington) New Jersey Devils – 82 points (38 wins) Prince of Wales Conference final (A2) Boston Bruins vs. (P4) New Jersey Devils This was the first playoff meeting between these two teams. This series featured the infamous confrontation between Devils coach Jim Schoenfeld and referee Don Koharski after Game 3, when, during an argument in the tunnel after the game, Koharski tripped and fell, accusing Schoenfield of pushing him. Schoenfield famously responded, "Good, 'cause you fell you fat pig!" Then, he yelled "Have another doughnut! Have another doughnut!" The incident has since become part of NHL lore.[1] Schoenfeld was suspended by NHL president John Ziegler for Game 4, but the Devils received an injunction from the New Jersey Supreme Court, allowing Schoenfeld to coach the fourth game. In protest, the officials scheduled to work that game in the Meadlowands refused to take the ice, forcing the NHL to scramble for amateur officials to call the game. The injunction was lifted, the league conducted a proper hearing, Schoenfeld served his suspension during Game 5 in the Boston Garden, and the League officials returned to work.

The New York Knicks are scrambling to maintain a top seed in the Eastern Conference standings with the majority of their starters ...
We moved to the top of the Premier League as Kai Havertz’s fourth goal in successive league games sealed a hard-fought win over Brentford. Declan Rice opened the scoring with a fine header, but an error from the returning Aaron Ramsdale just before half-time allowed Bees striker Yoane Wissa to divert his clearance into our net to level the scores. Our keeper redeemed himself with two great saves in the second half to keep us level, before Havertz popped up with five minutes remaining to net the strike that sent us back to the division’s summit after eight successive domestic victories. Having scored 21 times in our previous four league matches, we were quickly on the look for number 22, and just two minutes in Ivan Toney had to nudge a wicked Rice corner off his goalline to avoid suffering a quick concession. But given our razor-sharp form in front of goal, it always looked like we would soon find the net and that proved to be the case after 18 minutes. Ben White found Bukayo Saka on the right flank, who returned it to the full-back. He had ample time to put a pinpoint delivery into the area where Rice had got in front of Mads Roerslev to glance a fine header past Mark Flekken and net his sixth goal of the campaign - the best return of his career. Filled with confidence, our attack was purring and were soon carving out more chances. Havertz shot straight at Flekken after some neat footwork from Martin Odegaard, and with 10 minutes of the half remaining the German was sent one-on-on with the keeper and dinked the ball past him, but agonisingly wide of the far post. Saka then drilled an attempt over the bar as we looked to double our lead, but in first-half stoppage-time, we suffered an unlikely setback. There seemed little danger when William Saliba played the ball was played back to Ramsdale, but he dallied and was closed down by Wissa who blocked the clearance and saw it deflect into the net, to score for the third successive game and hand the visitors a shock equaliser. After the interval our shot-stopper came to the rescue though. Toney tried to catch him out off his line from 40 yards with an audacious attempt and just as it looked to be sneaking over Ramsdale, he managed to claw it out of the sky and away for a corner. But the atmosphere inside Emirates Stadium was rocking as our supporters drove our players forward and we nearly conjured up the all-important second goal when Gabriel showed his prowess from a corner to head goalwards but saw it scrambled off the line by a couple of Bees. Having lost seven of their last eight Premier League away games Thomas Frank’s team seemed desperate to grab a point and tried to eat up as much time as possible by taking their time over throw-ins and set-pieces, and they nearly managed to spring another surprise with 20 minutes remaining when Nathan Collins found himself in an advanced position and headed towards the top corner but Ramsdale again produced heroics to acrobatically tip it over. The game was on a knife edge and Rice came so close to grabbing his second of the evening when after a corner was cleared back to Odegaard he teed up the England man who saw a first-time effort ping off the top corner of the woodwork, but eventually our pressure told with five minutes to go. Once again White was in the thick of the action again, this time linking up with Odegaard before dinking a cross into the box and this time it was Havertz who powered it past Flekken to score yet again and give the Gooners in attendance something to celebrate for their efforts. We then saw out nine minutes of stoppage time to secure our third win of the campaign over Brentford, and move to the division’s summit ahead of Liverpool’s game with Manchester City on Sunday afternoon. #arsenal
Every New York Rangers fan knows where he/she was when Mark Messier called the shot. The move’s significance strips away youth, in a sense. Even young fans grasped the severity of May 25, 1994. Twenty-five years ago today (Saturday, May 25, 2019), the Rangers captain, the Messiah, not only guaranteed victory in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Final against the New Jersey Devils, he delivered with a natural hat trick in the third period. Messier’s pregame words were straightforward. “I know we’re going to go in and win Game 6 and bring in back here [Madison Square Garden] for Game 7 … We have enough talent and experience to turn the tide. That’s exactly what we’re going to do in Game 6.” The backdrop of Gary Thorne’s ESPN broadcast only heightened the moment. “Do you believe it? Do you believe it? He said ‘we will win’ Game 6 … he has just picked up the hat trick.” Oftentimes, the details get lost when immortals step forward. Without Alex Kovalev’s first goal, none of this happens. Without Mike Richter standing on his head early on, Messier’s 1994 squad flames out so predictably (based on Rangers history). Without Esa Tikkanen‘s nearly designed penalty that created a four-on-four situation to New York’s advantage, Messier doesn’t collect his second goal. Of course, Stephane Matteau‘s double-overtime goal in Game 7 sent the Rangers to that last hill to climb, the Stanley Cup Final against the seventh-seeded Vancouver Canucks. (And yes, there’s only one way to take in the Matteau goal: with Howie Rose’s call.) Messier collected 12 goals and 18 assists in 23 total playoff games, playing second-fiddle (statistically) to only the Conn Smythe man himself, Brian Leetch. Spiritually, Mark Messier owned the moment and the franchise. He came, he conquered, and he erased so many demons to be crowned one of the greatest New York sports heroes of all-time. (1) New York Rangers vs. (3) New Jersey Devils This was the second playoff meeting between these two teams, with New York winning the only previous series. They last met in the 1992 Patrick Division Semifinals, which New York won in seven games. New York made their third Semifinals/Conference Final appearance since the league began using a 16-team or greater playoff format in 1980. They were defeated in five games by the Montreal Canadiens in their most recent Conference Finals appearance in 1986. New Jersey made their second appearance in the Conference Final. Their most recent appearance was in the 1988 Prince of Wales Conference Final, which New Jersey lost against the Boston Bruins in seven games. New York won all six games in this year's regular season series. With a minute remaining in game one at Madison Square Garden, New York was leading 3–2. However, Devils forward Claude Lemieux tied the game on a scramble in front of New York goaltender Mike Richter. The Devils went on to win the game on Stephane Richer's breakaway goal at 15:23 of the second overtime. The Rangers evened the series winning game two in a 4–0 shutout. The series then turned to the Meadowlands in East Rutherford, New Jersey, for games three and four. Like game one, game three went into double overtime but this time it was New York who won 3–2 on Stephane Matteau's goal at 6:13 of the second overtime period. The Devils won game four by a final score of 3–1 and evened the series at 2–2. The Devils took the series lead with a 4–1 win at Madison Square Garden in game five. Despite the fact that his team trailed in the series 3–2, Rangers captain Mark Messier made a highly publicized guarantee that New York would win game six. After trailing New Jersey by a score of 2–1 after two periods Messier himself scored a third-period hat trick to rally the Rangers to a 4–2 victory. Rangers coach Mike Keenan said of the guarantee, "Mark was sending a message to his teammates that he believed together we could win. He put on an amazing performance to make sure it happened. Game seven played at Madison Square Garden, was a goaltending battle between New Jersey's Martin Brodeur and New York's Mike Richter. Brian Leetch gave the Rangers a 1–0 lead in the second period. Richter shut out the Devils for over 59 minutes before conceding a goal to Devils forward Valeri Zelepukin with just 7.7 seconds remaining in regulation. The two teams played into double overtime for the third time in the series and for the second time in the series it was Stephane Matteau who scored the game winner. Matteau scored on a wrap-around at 4:24 of the second overtime period as the Rangers won the game 2–1 and the series 4–3. Many consider this one of the greatest hockey playoff series of all time.
