In the latest installment of PHT Extra, Mike Halford and Jason Brough (aka “those two guys from Night at the Roxbury”) check in on the Eastern Conference finals after New York’s 3-0 win over New Jersey in Game 1.

Following the game, Rangers head coach John Tortorella dismissed the notion that his team was fatigued -- “We’re not a tired hockey club,” he said -- but that could change if the Devils continue to wear New York down with their forecheck.

Speaking of the Devils, PHT Extra also takes a look at how they’ll respond to the physicality of this series.

And to answer your question -- no, we are not wearing the same outfit. My shirt is cornflower blue, Jason’s is cerulean.
