QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:

"It’s kind of a no-panic mentality. It’s the structure that’s been instilled in us all year by [Peter Laviolette] and the coaching staff. That’s what we’re kind of relying on when we’re under siege and it’s not looking good at times. You know, guys blocked some shots, Shesty made some huge saves."

— Barclay Goodrow on the Rangers’ mentality

Rangers take G3 at Sunrise, I see FLA playing their hearts out tonight. Can’t go down 3-1 going into MSG. 

Oh, yes they can go down 3-1 tonight. "Confidence" is in the title of the GDT, thx @Morphinity 2.0..

 

Along that line... The Rangers 1st/2nd lines will win this one tonight. LGR!!!!!

Forget yesterday and tomorrow.  Just win today.  

 

Wouldn't it be something if we just had one of those nights...and blew them out?

I think what I've learned throughout this season is the Rangers can win any given game on any given night. There are no scheduled losses or unwinnable games for this team. Will they win every game? Of course not. But there's no "if this, then that" with this team.

I'm back home and raring to see a strong NYR victory. We can light the lamp with impunity, with a kick-ass first and take names later mentality. It'd be great to see us really 'click' again with speed and passing. FLA is going to play a bit desperate but not reckless, and we have to be ready to weather that storm. Getting pucks out of the D-zone cleanly is key to winning this game, IMO.  LFGR

They staved off Florida's best and have a 2-1 lead in the series. Kind of playing with house money a bit for this one. Obviously you want to stomp them out as quickly as possible, but worst case scenario, it's 2-2 going back to MSG. The Panthers are definitely frustrated a bit, use that to your advantage. Need a much better game defensively tonight. If the Rangers come out of this series, they're going to be pretty beat up. End it as soon as possible.

👍 for taking Lomberg out....He's probably been one of Florida's better players in this series.  

I'll take these changes.....Okposo slows them down.  Positive when they'll scratch another rat (Cousins).

I can hardly remember Game 3, but know for sure that we won in overtime. There are some crazy fake videos on the internet of Wennberg scoring the golden goal. I mean: WENNBERG! He can't even explain how goal celebrations work. It's really fascinating what AI is capable of these days. Well, they won't fool me. There's only one Wayne Goodrowzky.  

 

Let's go Rangers! We can do this!
