Really interested to see how the Rangers can counter Florida's style. They have given them fits, especially the last couple of years. It's just their playstyle in general the Rangers have had some issues countering. They can certainly win, of course. This is probably their toughest playoff match-up in several years, or maybe at least since Tampa in 2022.

Just keep it simple in the defensive zone, if the play isn’t there, don’t force it, off the glass and forecheck.
 

Just keep it simple in the offensive zone, if the play isn’t there, don’t force it, just throw it at the net and hope for a deflection or rebound. 
 

It doesn’t always have to be pretty

This is it, the last hurdle before the big dance. Stay disciplined, finish your checks. Adhere to the 1-3-1, and make those defensive zone passes crisp & stop just dumping it out. And no matter what, don't let Tkachuk bait you with his bullshit play style.

LET'S GO RANGERS!!

Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house....

 

Oh Wait!

 

OK so the whole waiting thing is almost over.  Will be a long day before we hit 8PM.  How many times can a person watch the same effing loop on NHL network?

 

We are healthy and everyone seems to be available. Actually even more "everyones" than the number of people who we thought were "everyone" a few weeks ago.

 

They may wait until game 2 to try and run Igor and Artemi but my money tis that that shit is gonna start almost from the first puck drop and our "everyone" need to be ready to get stuck in.  Jacob and some others need to take extra care when exiting the zone.
