Devils One Win Away From Eliminating Rangers

After the New Jersey Devils dominated the New York Rangers in Game 4 of the NHL Eastern Conference Finals, the Rangers wanted to come out with a sense of urgency Wednesday night and take the series lead. However, it was the Devils who did just that.

New Jersey scored three quick first-period goals to take a 3-0 lead, only to have the Rangers tie the game early in the third period. But the Devils prevailed scoring late in the game and adding an empty-net goal to put the Rangers on the brink of elimination, once again.

The Rangers have faced two other win or out situations this year and have prevailed in both of those games. They travel to Newark tonight for Game 6, and if they can pull out a win, they will be back at the world’s most famous arena on Sunday for the decisive Game 7.

Can the Devils take the series or will the Rangers fight back and show a repeat of what happened in 1994? Tune in tonight to find out!

Joint Statement On Nassau County’s Fiscal Crisis


(516) 319-5822 
 
On May 11, 2012, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano, Presiding Officer Peter Schmitt and The Republican Legislative Caucus issued a joint statement to county residents regarding the fiscal crisis.

In the statement, they are saying that Democrat Minority on the Legislature is refusing to implement a plan that forever ends borrowing for tax refunds while cleaning up debt created over the past decade. 

Per the press release, if the Democrats do not provide the votes needed to pay residents their rightfully owed property tax refunds, judgments will be executed against the County’s bank accounts – preventing the County from meeting payroll or funding government services (http://goo.gl/NGV3s).

If this is turned down, there will be massive cuts, which could include the following:
- Furlough of all nonessential employees
- Closure of all nonessential County offices on Mondays
- Elimination of the Youth Board
- Elimination of the Office of Mental Health, Chemical Dependency and Developmental Disabilities Services
- Eliminated of the Red Light Camera Dedicated Fund
