The New York Rangers made an incredible cobemack last-night only to give the game away because they gave up in the last ten minutes of the game. Clearly, the Devils wanted it more and they clearly demonstrated the will to win. The Rangers had plenty of chances, especially Gaborik blew a perfect opportunity in front of the net earlier in the game. That should of been a goal and Callahan's near miss was so close, inches from going in the net. If the Rangers are going to cobemack and win this series, their defense has to step up and play mistake free hockey. These careless turnovers must come to an end! Henrik must become a brick wall for the rest of the series! The offense must play the whole game, like they played the 2nd period. The effort they displayed was missing from the whole 2012 playoffs. Where has that display of offensive power been?

"folks of my generation gealrnley get along pretty well with people of other races and ethnicities."As long as we're going to use personal experience, I'm going to have to disagree. For all his faults, Alan Bloom pretty much nailed down race relations amongst youths in "SWPL-ish" professional & academic settings. To summarize his findings, whites are superficially friendly & tolerant towards minorities because they can afford to be - after all, the whites who made it into the Ivies or the big firms are well-off, steeped in Pee Cee, and intelligent enough to have beaten out thousands of whites and "qualified" NAMS. Although they may be burned that some of their friends lost places to underqualified minorities there's little overt hostility. OTOH, there is an intuitive "feeling" that NAM's are freeloaders & lightweights. With the exception of students in the soft sciences/ grievance studies there's little discussion of cutting-edge academic issues between the races; after all, most of the hispanics & blacks in these settings are too uninformed to carry on meaningful conversations w/o the identity politics crutch. Recall the articles about our Halfrican Hero's years as a lecturer, when he isolated himself in the faculty room & rarely discussed the legal topics of the day. Like the typical AA admit he was either several tiers below his colleagues or too lazy to keep himself up-to-date on current events. On my undergraduate campus (and at my current school) the end results seem to be the following:-Shallow friendships b/w SWPL's and NAMS, with both groups aware of the intellectual gap-A few close friendships between die-hard SWPL libs and minorities, who use blacks as props to alleviate white guilt-Persistent self segregation of NAM's who resent SWPL "generosity" (and fear embarrassment in professional discussions). This segregation may be encouraged or discouraged by administrators, depending on what their diversity czars say ought to be done.As another commenter mentioned, look for modern-day "tolerance" to break down as the economy worsens and the current racial spoils system becomes more pronounced/zero sum.
