We met their mother, Harry Potter and New York Rangers back to winning

So today Toni and I concluded How I Met Your Mother (and we did in the end). It is a brilliant TV comedy show that is well worth checking out if you haven't seen it. There aren't many shows that have us hooked so much that we can't stop watching (Breaking Bad and The Clone Wars being notable exceptions). We burned through nine season (208 episodes) in no time at all.

Change of pace in the afternoon as we opted for some Harry Potter and then a couple of episodes of National Geographic's Taboo series.Oh, and there was Indian food too....

From 23:00 we spent our time watching New York Rangers v Florida Panthers. First period was end to end and the Panthers netminder made some incredible saves. At 16:42 Chris Kreider took the Rangers 1 - 0 up with a great slapshot. First period ended with the Rangers leading 1 - 0. Shots on goal were NYR 12 and FLA 7.

Just before the second period started we indulged in a bit of this as we hit midnight!

Second period (and 2015 here in the UK) started with a bang as Derrick Brassard made it 2 - 0 to the Rangers at 01:29. There was lots of Rangers pressure and a bit of end to end before Ryan McDonagh scored a power play goal at 14:28 to extend the Rangers lead to 3 - 0. At 16:38 the Panthers started to close the gap as they made it 3 - 1. Second period ended with Rangers leading 3 - 1. Shots on goal were NYR 12 (24) and FLA 5 (12).

Third period started with Rangers on a penalty kill after a stupid Rick Nash slash. Fortunately this was cancelled out by the Panthers taking an equally stupid penalty. The Panthers got another power play chance and made it 3 - 2 at 07:39. A scramble in front of the Panthers net allowed Martin St. Louis to make it 4 - 2 at 09:51. Dominic Moore picked up a Martin St. Louis rebound to put the Rangers 5 - 2 up at 15:35. Rangers were back to winning ways with a nice 5 - 2 result. Shots on goal were NYR 10 (34) and FLA 8 (20).
