NY Rangers

Well WhatKnot got let off the hook.
Halfway through the game and I'm already not looking forward to Game 7. The Panarin line is cycling and got one but I said what the hell happened to CK line, they are invisible as we heading to the 2nd intermission.
Finally they started to control play, and keep the puck in the Canes' zone. Anderson is not a great goalie and he showed it with that bad goal along the post. A soft penalty against Stall (maybe a make up for Skjei) and tie game on the PP. When Krieder scored the go ahead on a great play from Lindy, I said we better win this and not waste the natural Hat trick.
I could feel my heart beating through my chest in the last five minutes.
Side note, was up in Pleasantville on wednesday for my daughters honors college ceremonies, and went to dinner at local restaurant Chatterbox, when in walks NYR legend Stephane Matteau and sat down at the table next to us. I gave him a knowing nod but left him and his party alone. As we got up to leave, I quickly asked him how do we look for game 6, and he gave me smile and said no worries.
I'm figuring we will play Florida next, no easy task. They are fast, very physical, can score a ton and have very good goaltending...I cant see the beat up Bruins beating them.
Man I love playoff hockey!

Well I was not able to give the game my full attention as I was watching it with one eye while my sons band was playing their gig last night at Beau’s
I was resigned to game 7 after the end of the second period
When Kreider started lighting up the scoreboard we started to believe but never exhaled until the empty netter sealed it
Final four!!
Hopefully FLA Boston goes 7 and they both get beat up

Promise, no more predictions or mention of ‘you know who’.

Let’s Go Rangers!!!!!

 

[OVERBORED]

We had our chances but the puck was on our end of the ice for much of the game.

Florida is a formidable opponent. Played in the finals last year and have a great goalie.

Tall hill to climb but we certainly have the talent.

I expect to come out like hungry dogs on Friday!!!

Let's goooooooo!

Agreed
We did not have alot of shots but did have some good chances that didn’t go in until Lafraniere hit the back of the net

FLA plays a smothering defensive style for sure
Definitely need to regroup and have a better game 2 to avoid being down 0-2
LFGR!!

OT

 

[WhatKnot]

Wow !!

 

[OVERBORED]

Important win.

These goalies are something else!

This series is tough to watch as at times the Panthers look superior but the blue shirts find a way.

 

[Hunter704]

Rangers win defense needs to tighten up 4/2 lead going into third shouldn’t have been a overtime game

 

[Roccus7]

Goalies could use just a bit of help... I was screaming at the TV!!!

 

[OVERBORED]

Rangers have been out played in most facets of the game yet they're up 2-1.

Just seems Florida is the better team but Igor is the equalizer. He gets better every game.

Now that my stomach is settled, I can comfortably have dinner

You and I both

 

[WhatKnot]

Nothing better than watching a 3:00pm Sunday Ranger game in a nice Pub while the Pints flow. Place was crazy.

[OVERBORED]

Best of 3 with 2 at the garden.

Igor could use some help!

Kreider, Panerin, Zibanajed....M.I.A

Need them........

 

[Roccus7]

Igor could use some help!

Understatement!!!

 

[Hunter704]

Definitely need to step there game up

 

[OVERBORED]

Thus far, Florida is the superior team. I'm not so confident in the next 3 games.

Can't win playing on your heels!
