Ranking the remaining goalies by SV% in the third round of playoffs is interesting; goalies, who either started, or in relief in the 2022 playoff games (SV% / GAA):

  1. Georgiev: 0.935 / 2.04
  2. Shesterkin: 0.929 / 2.60
  3. Vasilevskiy: 0.921 / 2.58
  4. Francouz: 0.920 / 2.37
  5. Smith: 0.917 / 3.18
  6. Koskinen: 0.897 / 4.02
  7. Kuemper: 0.897 / 2.65

The way the offense/defense playing as of late and Shesty being Shesty as he had been during the season / playoff. the Avs better watch out. The Rangers may just steal the cup from them.

 

The Rangers winning today puts the Bolts in 3-0 hole, just like the Avs did last night with the Oilers. Keep up with the Avs, Rangers...

Going to miss the 2nd half of the game.   They win 99% of the time I don’t watch so maybe it’s a good thing that I’ll be playing hockey during the game. 

Same here; I'm tempted to bring my phone to the bench to get the updates.  Regardless, tonight dictates if we tip the scales heavily in our favor for a trip to the dance. Let this be the changing of the guard in the East. Cmon boys!!! LFGR!!!!

Analytics haven’t favored the Rangers most of the year? Game score not as good? Who cares! Chuck them in the trash! To the Athletic’s Dom Luchzweidjsnbirkhdbshehhaba:

Me personally don’t put much stock in analytics or statistics just go by what my eyes tell me and they are telling me Rangers are up 2-0. Those are all the numbers I need

They have not even come close to outskating us yet and I don't really see that happening unless there is some secret formula they have not unleashed yet.  If there is a secret formula and they have not unleashed it yet then why not?  Occam's razor.  Maybe they are playing this badly because of the Rangers.   Maybe we are causing them to play badly - simple as that.

 

We are not going to fold if we get behind and everyone not named Ryan Strome seems to be snapping up their half chances.  At worst we will be in this game until late and at best we just just keep on rolling because right now we have been the better team in every department.

 

I am back and forth on the whole matinee game thing and I think it favors us because it could help us to silence the crowd.  Just a theory but it is as good as any other.
