Rempe 

He's had a great career and there's really no reason for him to go through all that pain for a team that probably needs to rebuild/re-tool.  I could see if they had one more kick at the can, but that team is pretty far from being a Cup contender.

 

He's got what, one more year left on his contract?
 

He's won a Cup, and was a really good player pretty much his whole career.  I'm curious to see what he does, but I don't think he has anything left to prove at this point.

 

 

It's official ....This thread has achieved Legendary status!

 

TB got hosed last night...How many times we saw the same thing this season, just with Cuylle alone it cost us like 4 goals.

 

But let's face it; the officiating in the league this season has hit an all time low.  I think it was better with 3 officials on the ice.  We have 2 refs and 2 linseman now, and they're fucking woeful out there.

 

Gimme back the days of Dave Newell, John D'Amico and Ray Scapinello!!!

Wild series...I'm loving this one!

Bucky wins this one.

I'm really looking forward to listening to Bissonette after the inevitable happens to the Leafs here.  Boston/Florida is what it looks like is gonna happen, and that's gonna be a DANDY of a series, if it actually shakes out that way (here's hoping).

 

I don't think Ovi cared one fucking bit about that series.

 

He's got his ring

He's got his legacy

He's got his money

He's going to be a first ballot Hall of Famer

 

All he wants now is Gretzky's record, and he can't get that in the Playoffs.  He's got 2 seasons to score 41 goals....
We'll see you next season Ovi! 

I did notice on the handshake line Wilson did stop a little longer when he got to Fox. 

 

I gotta say, Wilson is a real dick to play against, but good christ I'd love him if he was on the Rangers!  I think we can learn a lot from guys like Wilson going forward.  Especially guys like Cuylle, and Rempe.  Wilson is a game changer, whether we like it or not.  He's also the sole reason the Caps were even in any of the games we played them.

 

Winning playoff games against guys like that go a long way to adding to these kids experience.  I think it's a feather in the cap to not cave in the face of intimidation from players like him.  He may be the toughest player we face on our trip through the playoffs.

 

We passed the test!

Exactly. 

 

Give me a limping, bruised, exhausted Canes team over an Islanders team playing on adrenaline and big time "we're not supposed to be here" vibes.

 

Yeah, this!

I don't think Carolina is anywhere near as physical as the Caps are. 

It's that whole "death by 1000 papercuts" approach, and I'd rather have Igor face 6,000 outside shots, than being swarmed by guys the size of Tom Wilson and Co.

 

Not that I'm afraid of the Isles, but for some reason or another, we just don't seem to play them very well.  The matchups just didn't look to great when we played them recently.  We'd beat them in 6 or 7, but I think the Isles would take a nice bite out of our ass.

"Sweep Dreams", fellas!!!

 

It was probably everything the Caps had left in the tank last night, and it still just wasn't enough.  We tried like hell to fuck this one away, but Igor simply just can't let that happen!

Another incredible game from Trocheck, who at this point might very well be our MVP.  Also giving some props to Panarin who answered @Keirik's request, and potted the game winner!  I love when that kinda shit happens!!

Well boys, this is what we asked for!  A lovely sweep of the geriatric Caps, and a week off to work on getting better and 100% healthy.

A pretty sound series, I'd say, but I think we're going to get even better as we move along.  Now it's just sit back and watch everyone else kill themselves trying to advance!

...and the winning quote for tonight’s GDT goes to @siddious!!  If Rempe doesn't get him, I will! 

I made my first tee time of the year for this Thursday, and when you sign up, it gives you the names of the guys you're playing with.  I have a guy named "Wilson" in my group....I was looking for an "Ovechkin", but I think he's playing horseshoes instead!

"Capital" Punishment!!!

I think it's safe to say that we're the big boys on the block now.  There's no fear, and also no quit in this year's edition of the "ass-kickin' Blueshirts"!!

The call on the Rempe hit was utter ass leakage and I can't wait until this round is over, so the NHL can send a few of these crooked zebras home. 
After a "WTF" moment, Igor righted the ship, and played his fucking ass off to give us a huge 3-0 lead in this whistle-fest of a series.

Think you might've been feeling the chili you had last night  

 

You know, after all the shit this Caps team stirred up a few years ago with slamming Panarin on the ice and basically making us look like pansies, you'd think the NHL would admire the fact that we built a team of talented ass-kickers that play a hard nosed, clean game to stand up to these pricks!

Nope!! ...gotta ref games like shit in the first round.  It's a given at this point.  I hope we don't change a thing, and not cave to the castration of the game!

Keep hitting!

Keep playing tough!

Keep fighting for each other!
Keep winning!

and the winning quote for tonight’s GDT goes to @Dem, while on his back in the hospital!! 

Feel better my man!!  We're all with you, dude!  ...and by the way, I hope someone got that license plate on the bus that hit Van-whoocha-mah-call-it!!

Aho is the one that went knee to knee on Fox.

 

Not 100% sure who stretched out Igor.

 

Both of them were out for weeks.  Fox even longer.

 

We really should have Rempe run their goalie at least once.  He's going to get penalized/suspended for basically anything at this point because the refs are hunting him.  He should take out the goalie and earn the punishment.

 

I'm all for letting the old ghosts be.

 

This is a different time and a whole different team since those games back forever ago, Brad.

 

I think we should beat them where it hurts;  The scoreboard.  No need to play chippy revenge hockey.  What's done is done.  I wanna win the Cup, and I don't think that's the way to do it.  We can play a HARD physical game against them, and let the chips fall where they may.  Carolina is not a physical team like the Caps are.  They won't be able to match us check for check in a heavy fashion.  That's our game now.

 

We're the big boys on the block, but there a time and place for that kinda stuff.  The 2nd round isn't the place for it in my opinion.  We'll beat them by playing hard, not silly and reckless.

Well then JJ, they start tonight because we're beating the shit outta these guys tonight!  I won't be surprised if we go 7 goals deep on these fucking fossils tonight!

I saw Bowers in the top 10 of most drafts. I think the Raiders got good value. There's nothing they can do when there's a blitz of 6 QBs before pick 13 lol

 

We'll get one.  Over the past several years there's been a bunch of teams that have gone QB crazy in the first round, and many haven't worked out so well.  I remember years ago, maybe 1 or 2 went in the first round and most went later in the draft.  It's changed a lot since then.

 

I'm not relly worried;  I think there's going to be a QB somewhere in the league that can play under Antonio Pierce.  We have a lot of weapons, I just hope we address our defense a little bit more this off season.  I think we will, especially since AP is a defensive kinda guy.

 

It's still a long road for us to go, but I'm a glutton for punishment!  It's probably the best training in being a Rangers fan!!  Now you see why I can be so resilient!  I've had training with this fucking team since 1974!  LOL

I'm sure they aren't happy about that Panarin hit, even though I didn't think it was that bad. I'm expecting them to be out for blood tonight, plus it's basically a must win game for them. Beware shenanigans.

 

9 minutes ago, RangerDanger said:

Yep, expecting them to come for Panarin. If we keep our cool and don't buy into their game plan, knowing these refs are calling everything, we let them try and kill them with the PP.

 

 

This Caps team can ill-afford to get chippy.  God forbid they take a double minor or a (gasp!) a major....they're fucking done!  The Rangers will plant 3 goals in 5 minutes on their asses and it's over Johnny!

 

The Caps will just be asking for trouble playing like dicks.  And we'd be stupid to partake in that shit!  They fucking stink!  They're not even worth fighting...

 

The Rangers aren't gonna take any shit either.  This team isn't scared of Tom Wilson anymore, or Dylan McIlrath who still can't skate!!!  We have bigger, tougher players.  This is not your father's Rangers anymore, kids!  This team is built Ford fucking tough!

 

We roll tonight big!!  5-2...Bread pots a pair!

You guys both did really well.  The Giants got a really good player for DJ, now I hope they reset the clock on him and give him a chance to show what he's got, now with at least a solid weapon.

 

The Raiders got that TE from Georgia (Bowers).  He's a good guy to step right in and add to that offense with Devonte!  Now all we need is someone to throw them the fucking ball!  LOL
