Tomas Sandstrom Posted May 17 Author Share Posted May 17 Obviously, we are rooting for Boston to win tonight (In 4 OT's?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Game seven. Quadruple OTs in both games. Boston to win. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersLEETCH Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I hope for Boston however, at this point who cares. Whoever it is we gonna wipe the floor with their ass! LGR!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I want to wake up Friday morning and see game 6 still going on. Either way, I don't care. We aren't losing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas Sandstrom Posted May 17 Author Share Posted May 17 (edited) Anyone really follow the league and can talk about matchups, strengths / weaknesses of each team, etc? I am mainly a Rangers fan, and only casually follow the NHL overall. I know the stars from each team: Florida has Tkachuk / Barkov / Reinhart / Bobrovsky and Boston has Pasta / Marchand / Swayman / McAvoy. I'm just curious who we may matchup better with given our strengths...my gut says Boston is the better matchup for us...but as Phil said, at this point, who really cares, we gonna wipe the floor with whoever is across the rink from us Still on a high from last night, so maybe call this thread "Sandstrom's nervous energy ramblings" LOL Edited May 17 by Tomas Sandstrom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdog99 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) I feel like we played boston pretty well during the regular season. I remember feeling dominated by florida in at least one of those games...at least as far as possession, speed etc. u know boston is coming out hard against us though. while half of the crowd in florida will be ranger fans... either way, as said, quadruple ot in game 6 and 7...then give us whoever is barely breathing Edited May 17 by Jdog99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Boston has been a good matchup for us for quite some time, perhaps even going back to Lundqvist. He always played well against them. I think the Rangers can beat either of them, but Florida is definitely the worst matchup of the two. The Bruins are good, but the Panthers are a buzz saw, and loaded. Their play style will also give the Rangers a lot of problems, as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 So, when about is the earliest the ECF can start? Any idea? At the very least they'll have a couple of extra days of rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersIn7 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Boston would conceivably be the easier matchup. Florida would be very tough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsm7302 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Honestly, and it's been said before....neither of these teams scare me, at all honestly; I feel like Carolina was the hardest out of the bunch. Boston was only towards the top of the conference due to loser points in OT. Florida is good but not incredible. Bring on the next challenge; after facing adversity for a couple games, these boys are riding high and ready for whatever may come!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerDanger Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I would rather face Boston. Florida has more depth and scoring, gets a little dirtier with a strong forecheck, and I'd rather face Swayman than Bobrovsky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cr00zng Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 From my perspective, I'd prefer, Florida that's favored to win the EC. I just don't want to hear during the final, that "It should had been Florida in the final....". Let's beat them fair a square to shut them up...

SaveByRichter35 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Triple OT Boston win tonight, triple OT for game 7. I think I would prefer Boston win but either way I don't care as long as the last two games are absolute battles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br4d Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 It such a tough call. Rather not face Swayman. Really want to watch Rempe and Tkachuk dance a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Florida. Everyone says they're the team to beat. Let's go beat 'em. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sm still buzzing from the win last night too! Im 55 and you would think I would be able to say hey get your job done at work will talk Rangers hockey later. Hell no!!! Somethings never get old. My gut says Boston cause i think the Rangers have a better chance to move through them to the Stanley Cup round. But another part of me thinks even if it’s Florida the Rangers can take them too. It will probably be more of an offensive series if it’s Florida. We will need Rempe to keep Bennet at bay incase he starts some shit. Rangers are very deep and rolling right now. Rangers -Boston Rangers in 5 …Rangers -Florida …Rangers in 6… LGR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
