QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:

“It was pretty awesome. It’s emotional. Obviously, it was tough for him earlier in the year. It was tough for all of us to see him go down like that. All we could really do was support him. Seeing him come back, came back to New York about a month ago and came on the ice, looked great, felt great. Looked like the old Fil, and he kind of spoke up and said that he felt he could play again. Obviously, if he’s able to play, he makes our team better so, we want him out there.”

— Vincent Trocheck on the return of Filip Chytil

Good morning folks. Going to need 60 minutes of intensity tonight to close these bastards out. Can't spot them a period or so before we wake up tonight. 

 

Hopefully third line pots one or more tonight. Would be a huge plus.

 

Enjoy the day folks!

LETS GO RANGERS!!!!

 

[RangersIn7]

Finish this now!

 

LGR!

Impossible to imagine actually sweeping here but with this team who the hell knows

I really wanna be positive and say they’ll do it but it’s a proven fact that I have to be pessimistic for this team to win so….

 

no way this is def going to go 7 games!!!

Why "can't we spot them a period"? It worked for the Rangers in the previous three games, despite the 'Canes throwing at them all they got.

 

As the old saying goes, "Defense wins championship". Let them practice DZ a little more, they'll need it for two more series....

[Kick save and a beauty]

Let's try and stay out of the box tonight.  Law of averages is gonna kick in at some point.

 

Get one or two early and then four of five more once those guys press even more than they normally do.

 

Chase both goalies

 

Settle in to watch all the post game shows while the people who gave us no chance in this series try to make sense of why the world is upside down. 

[Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc]

The Last Cry.

 

Canes are done. 5-1 Rangers.

[RichieNextel305]

If we jump out fast like we did in Game 1, that may just about do it. That said, can’t rule anything out here. Far too many times have I seen the Rangers give a team a “knockout blow” only for that team to get off the floor. That said, this is a different Ranger team. Carolina will fight. The Rangers are going to have to take it from them. Lets go!!!!!

[L'albatros]

lets finish!!

[Supernaut]

Let's Go Rangers, and stuff.

[phillyb]

Gonna miss some of this one, fuck me.

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.

[phillyb]

GDTs get wild sometimes and posts get weird. Does anyone remember which fucking game that was? There was a game the Rangers were trailing and Mike's Mayo found it's way into the weird meta of the GDTs. The team came back to win. Mike's is now BSBH's sponsor. 

[Kick save and a beauty]

Up 2-0 and cruising last year against the Devils tells me all I need to know about feeling comfortable.

 

If we are up 4-0 with ten minutes to go then maybe I will start to feel comfortable.

 

Maybe

[Karan]

Well damn.

This it’s good luck and an omen of good things to come

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

[Kick save and a beauty]

There's no way that STDs from celebratory sex with N.C. Hookers would have kicked in this quickly for Chytil, is there?
