I think a lot of these games are make-up games, Zuuuc man. We didn't have too many, if I remember correctly...The Make up game with the Isles is March 17th....that should be a doozy in the crowd.

These are all the make up games, I think the Rangers had 2-3 games postponed due to covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4EverRangerFrank Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 What's the likelihood that K and Giroux talked about him coming to NYR? Perfect opportunity for that at All-Star weekend, no? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL The Rangers had three games postponed, one @Ottawa and two @home with Detroit and Montreal. These games are rescheduled outsides of the two weeks vacation for the Rangers. The rest of the MET division teams are playing starting today with Carolina @Toronto streamed on ESPN+. Carolina will make up four of their postponed games before the Rangers hit the ice on next Tuesday. Out of the four games, one looks like a "gimme (@Ottawa)", but the other three could be a good game... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cr00zng Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Last night's game of with Carolina @Toronto, home team won in OT, had been awesome. Very intensive, fast, back and forth 60+ minutes game, very much like a playoff game. I have hard time seeing the Rangers play with this intensity for 60 minutes in a regular season game, much less in the playoff. There's still time and hope, that they will get to this point and we will see... Up next tonight, Pittsburgh @Boston should also be a good game. I started to like having ESPN+... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing, Crooz! That game was so fast, back and forth! The one thing I realized though is that there was very little hitting. There were "hits", but very few real "playoff grinding" hits. Tony D got King Midas @Keirik a goal and an apple though!! Way to go dude!! Would please pick up Kakko already!!! Geeeeeeeez!!! Those 2 teams pretty much went toe to toe for 3 periods and it was a super game....maybe one the best I've seen this season! Both goalies were pulling out some pretty big stops all night too. We have a whole 1/2 season to get our shit together to match up with these 2 teams, but the thing is, I think a team like Florida will take both of these 2 teams apart in a 7 game series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They certainly did not take Florida apart, especially last game. They did what they do...3/5 on the powerplay, gave up 35 shots and relied on Igor. Florida was playing their backup on 2nd night of back to back. Credit to the Rangers for handling their business but wouldn't expect a 7 game playoff series to go that way every night.

I'm thinking after we stock the shelves with maybe a couple of players at the deadline, we're going to be a tough out for those guys. Right now, you're right; I don't see how we could keep up with those types of teams...but a few well-placed body checks and some continuous pounding in to those back boards on dump-ins just might take some of the zip out of a fast team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That third period was a clinic in protective/shutdown hockey. That said, it was arguably the only example of them doing that all season long, so it didn't do nearly enough to dismantle the broader criticism that they're too heavily reliant on a power play and goal tending.

Some really good teams are going to be eliminated in the first round. its like pick your poison where you want to end the season. If the season ended today it would be Boston vs. Florida Washington vs. Carolina Pittsburgh vs. Rangers Toronto vs. Tampa Bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see them win a round, or maybe 2, but that may be asking a lot. Let's see what we do at the deadline, but yeah...any of the matchups that we face are going to be tough!

It’s a bit unfair to take a notch away from the Rangers victory with Knight in goal and not bring up us winning without our Norris winner in the lineup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieNextel305 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 (edited) It is mind blowing that it is this late in the season and we still haven’t played Pittsburgh yet this season. Edited February 8, 2022 by RichieNextel305 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
