thats great if he said that lol 

Not one of our Harvard guys?  

Yup, stat-line just mediocre at best.   Eye test just painful to watch. If he's not making hits (0) or blocking shots (2), his 23:43 is a wicked liability.   

I think I finally figured this out.

Chris Kreider is that old girlfriend that is smoking frikkin hot, but she does so much stupid shit that you're ready to curb her for good.   But, she keeps showing up and doing all those "best girlfriend ever" tricks and you let her back in.  Over and over again.

I yield to the gentlemen from Boxford, Mass.

Gatorade and orange slices? 

"Bitch, Be Cool!"

Forget the refs, games 4 & 5, missed shots, turnovers and the venue.

Go out and play like the better team.   Be cool, don't sweat this one.    See you on the other side men.

Let's Go Rangers

When Panarin is getting  cold you need 3rd and 4th lines to step up for a game or two.  They havent.  they suck ass

Not True.   Game 4, the 34th dominated (scoring/chances/hits).   Game 5, not as much, but they clearly were hitting, shooting and blocking shots.   None were more than a -1.   It's not the 34th Division, or Laffy.

Game 6 the 34th will dominate again, and all our other leaders will follow !

What the Rangers don't have right now is the guy who drives the team on the ice.

 

We have a lot of talent that often go off and do their own thing.

Sorry Br4d, I'm not biting.   Prior to Game 4, I called it; the 3rd/4th line domination.   I'd like to refer to them as our 34th Division.   The 34th has continued our their youth movement and they are being driven by Vesey and Goody, and Wenny.  Sure, we missed some wide open shots and are clanging posts, but KK and Cuylle are creating scoring chances everywhere.    This core is leading by example and they'll be the reason the NYR advance.

Now our regulars.   Look around and watch Laffy.   He'll instill some urgency in our vets that, frankly, have a tendency to "glide" as we've all said.   Well, don't look now but your 34th Division just wore down the Canes front lines, again.   So, step it up.

Line by line, goalie-to-goalie, the New York Rangers are the better team.  Laffy and KK, Cuylle and Jimmy are driving this bus now.   I'm just going to sit back, watch and do my own thing.   Be one of our regulars and hop on board.

It sorted out like expected.  We take one of two on the road.   I'll take that.

Our 3rd/4th line just schooled them.

Our regulars didn't rake.

Let the Garden rock !

3rd line Stars of the game !!   Plus, Greasy Jimmy and the grinders 4th line get a Cuylle.    All the while, our regulars just rake.   

Enjoy this ones, and see you on the other side of the Cone de Silence !

brodzinski was in his spot apparently at practice not Rempe. 

GFD it.  Sad news.     But, next man up.

At this point i don’t think anyone will make anything out of Kakko. There’s nothing there, not even one semi chance. 

Sorry Albatross, I'm jus not ready to give up on KK.   Yes, a lot of mistakes, misses and penalties since he's been back.  But man, he's so strong on the stick and truly a gifted skater.    At 23, in the greatest city in the world, it may be a whirlwind for him in this foreign land.   Just a year ago, he got healthy and was making strides (18/22) and like the team, they were navigating through post-COVID regiments, injuries and a coaching change.

Peca (and Housley adjace) will mold him.  Kris Knoblauch always had high hopes for him.    I see a comfort level with Fil back and Wennberg is a great mentor.   Were we frustrated with Laffy?   Have faith my man, KK will surface soon.   This third line will make some noise, starting today !

Sir, as one of the FNG's, what's your relationship with Mike's Amazing Real Mayonnaise?   For those of us not in the know, it is quite curious.

It'll be OK Brooks.   I apparently have to succumb to Mr, Kreider's wishes too !

You know what, I'm glad we've been wrong.

Holy shit he goes down like he got shot. Embarrassing upon review no matter who does it.  Hate that part of the game in any sport these days.

Does Foxy look a little off ?  His body language hasn't looked good.   More than just the regular "oh shucks" look.  I think he's got something going on physically ?

Can someone explain to me what that intro music ESPN is playing?   It sounds like some Russian polka shit?    Really annoying.

Oh, and thank God Pernell-Karl Sylvester Subban was off the set last night.   Messier seemed so pleased not to listen to that AssHat.    And Holy crap, that was a sweet suite Mess was rocking !

Weekes >>>>>>>>Schlubbaaahn

Oh, these dipshits at "theScore" have Canes at -125.  Rangers +1.5 goals.   Somebody needs to lose their job ! 

Rempe with the Gordie Hatty would send the shockwave notice to the entire League.   The New York Rangers are here to stay !   I see it happening too with Jimmy or Goody getting one tonight.   The rag-dolling fight would just be the cherry on top.

Still looking for KK to be my sleeper, and the four-line cannonball leaving Penn Station for Raleigh with a 2-0 lead.

Rempe, Jimmy, KK and/or Laffy light it 5x5.   Bread, Troch, CK and Zibb pepper Canes on PP.     

I'd like to the see the over/under on PP scores for NYR.    I'll go <30 seconds.    Holy cow, these special teams are the best I've ever seen.     

Crush them tonight.   I'd like a 7-2 win, Thank You !

No I wouldn't, and it has almost nothing to do with Rempe. It's clear the NHL has mandated the referees call anything on him that's even vaguely resembling a penalty, and in some cases like today just completely made up stuff. Today also showed you just how important special teams will likely be in this series, and the wild disparity of 2/2 for the Rangers and 0/5 for the Canes is not something likely to be repeated. Can't risk giving them free PPs over a 6-7 minute a game player.

BB, why can't NYR special teams dominate ?  I know Canes were tops in ST, but for this game they looked outmatched.

I'd play Matty for sure.  He is the tone setter, the enforcer and embodiment of this team.

I'd rather have my fourth liner be the punisher (4 hits) and if he draws penalties, so be it.  Afterall, he only plays 7 mins.

Excellent game.  Two or three defensive lapses, but a nice win.

Rangers Special Teams impressive.  Shut down Canes convincingly.  

Very proud of the team effort.    Go get game #2
