Whatever, we’re have a dead flyers team and the islanders coming up in the garden, we’re gonna get the 1 seed
Does anyone have the video of the Mika hit? I missed it during the game and want to see what Lav was fired up about
Edit: Found a [link](https://x.com/rtaub_/status/1777870693352280309?s=46)
Laviolette was really mad. Rempe will be a mainstay in the lineup now I bet.
Anyone have video of Laf getting boarded prior to trocheck’s? I believe it was around the 1 min mark or so.
Refs are totally fucking stupid and blind. Rangers need to learn how to play a full fucking game too
Rangers were awful in the first.
Isles were awful in the second.
Refs were awful in the third.
I hope Rempe plays but only if he keeps his hits clean. We need his injection of energy for 60 minutes, not 2 seconds TOI
Calling for him to fuck shit up is irresponsible
Oh man Lavi is piiiiisssed. I’ve never seen him that fired up. I’d hate to be an Islander on Saturday.
I wonder if Trocheck would’ve gotten boarded like that if Rempe was in the lineup
Someone just tell me Mika is ok, I didn’t see the game. That’s all I care about.
How far into the game will Rempe get ejected on Saturday lmao
I really hope we don’t see piece of shit referees like Wes and Kelly in the playoffs frequently. Give me Frederick L’Ecuyer and Corey Syvret for any Game 7.
Very annoying game, but the magic number is now just two for the division and the East. Two wins no matter what, or even just one win and a loss from Boston/Carolina will seal it.
i don’t know if i agree with lavi about the mika hit (he was literally looking in the opposite direction and skated into pelech, who just happened to be standing in such a way, etc.) but the no call on dobson boarding trocheck at the end was egregious
Only good thing about this result is that it could ignite them to prevent the lackluster starts again
Vesey trip with plenty of time left needs to be called, and then two boards in the final minute of play need to be called. Those aren’t 50/50 tick tacky penalty’s. Those are clear cut penalty’s. I hate this game managing culture the NHL has, it happened all last year with the oilers they just had too good a PP so refs had to stop calling penalty’s.
In a more rational vain, the isles score two of their goals on super lucky bounces in a period the rangers didn’t even try. And then got embarrassingly out skated for 40 minutes and got bailed out by their backup goalie. We still control our destiny, just need to beat the flyers on Thursday. I hope Lavi puts Rempe in on Saturday for the rematch, since the refs failed to call the penalty’s the players have to police the game now.
And most importantly hope Mika is okay, hope for at the worst it’s a mild concussion. If that’s a jaw injury he could really miss some time.
Seeing Lav that PISSED, I’M ready for fucking Saturday. So fucking ready. Gallant and Quinn were wet beta fucking noodles and would have done fucking nothing.
Lav is a FUCKING LEADER. and I FUCKING LOVE IT.
Who the fuck is calling Vesey a loser?! I just wanna talk
The end of that game got me so riled up I angrily washed dishes. I do feel a little better now 😂
Any word on Mika? I missed most of the game but heard he got injured?
Playing Washington in the first round is ideal, them or the lousy Red Wings
Picturing Vesey waking up everyone morning and checking standings and thinking of scenarios just like me
Okay, someone help me here, what is the tiebreaker between the Rangers and Canes? I know head to head favors the Rangers, so what is it?
Send rempe out there on Saturday
Do people here legitimately think Rempe moves the needle or am I just not in on the joke? Him lumbering around the ice for 5 minutes trying to throw a hit/fight someone isn’t gonna do jack shit. I thought we learned after Reaves that dressing an ineffective player for “toughness” makes your team worse.

Mika incident in question
The Rangers need to wake up from their naps a little earlier because it seems like they’ve been outplayed in every 1st period for a good while. I love that they can come back, but I’d rather they didn’t have to for once!
And I couldn’t watch the game, but I listened, and I’ve never heard their radio guys get so mad about how the refs were in the dwindling moments of the game. Holy moly, musta been some crazy missed calls. Regardless, that doesn’t wash away the Rangers 1st period woes.
Look I could shit on the refs all night long, and rightly so; if these fucking chumps had their heads up their asses any farther they’d have ouroborus’d themselves out of existence in those final minutes. Ref bashing aside, the issues at 5v5 continue. Some thing’s gotta give going into the playoffs because living and dying by the powerplay is not a great plan. Didn’t help being down 3 goals early in the game either. I didn’t get to watch the first so I can’t say if Shesty had a bad first period, but the rest of the game was pretty solid. I’m glad Mika is okay.
Onto the next one. See you Thursday.
Game lost in the 1st period. Will be a very short playoff stay if this is how they play in the 1st 10 minutes.
Obv needed to come out hotter, and obv the 1st was why we lost. But honestly feel like the bigger question the team needs to figure out is how in the world we didn’t score in the 3rd. Total domination and great play, no execution and nothing to show for it. I get that the isles were probably turtling and that has a lot to do with it, but damn thats where we need that killer instinct to bury it.
I seriously think we’re the best team in the league right now at *playing* hockey, but that doesn’t always reflect in goals. Honestly a big red flag for the playoffs if they can’t bring that finishing intensity. Its almost like we’re too good for our own good
Lav would destroy roy
Islanders are 36-42. What a joke
Igor actually played a good game. We were terrible in the 1st.
Lav is PISSED! Check out his postgame presser. Claims Pelech intentionally shouldered/elbowed Mika 😬
Rangers MSG postgame:
https://youtu.be/-wI3pfX1KgY?si=sBPvxoXA3_87-Wyg
on the bright side, this islanders win eliminated the devils from playoff contention
4th line starting on Saturday I’m guessing…
This team is much worse with Truba and Gustafsson. But yet theyalways play. Why is this?
The Pelech hit was intentional. You can clearly see him slow his stride and angle himself so Mika, who he saw was looking down ice, would hit him. He was ready for contact. Fuck him.
Okay, I’m gonna go off here. This game, besides the Zebras going blind and not calling the cross check, the sus fucking slash, not calling the slewfoot/trip, this game, as it was a playoff atmosphere game is something I DO NOT WANT TO SEE COME PLAYOFF TIME. And you know what that is? Well, it’s two fucking things and these two fucking things are so damn important at this time of the season. ONE: START ON FUCKING TIME. LIKE THE GAME AGAINST THE PENGUINS LAST WEEK, START ON TIME, AND PLAY FUCKING BETTER DEFENSIVELY. Igor showed up, the fourth line showed up, and Kreids showed up (yes on the PP) after almost dying from friendly fire. TWO: BURYING TEAMS THAT ARE DESPERATE. IDGAF IF THOSE FUCKS WERE ON A ROLL, BUT THEIR FIGHTING FOR THEIR DAMN PLAYOFF LIVES. and their style of fucking hockey is turtle for the rest of the fucking game. OH AND GUESS WHAT, THAT SAME TEAM, MIGHT JUST BE THE RANGERS FIRST ROUND OPPONENT. SO YOU GOT TO FUCKING BURY TEAMS WHEN THEIR DESPERATE. COME PLAYOFF TIME, IF THE RANGERS ARE UP IN A SERIES BY 2 WINS OR WHATEVER, YOU BURY THEM AND TAKE OUT ANY FAITH THAT FUCKING TEAM HAS. I preach this in every WAKE UP post on gameday, that this team needs to play 60 MIN GAME OF HOCKEY. TONIGHT WAS NOT THAT. Yes, I loved how they played in the 2nd and 3rd. But come playoff time, you take a period off, it WILL BE FATAL. ESPECIALLY AGAINS THAT TEAM WHO ALL THEY DO IS SCORE THE FIRST GOAL AND PLAY PARK THE FUCKING BUS TRAP BORING FUCKING HOCKEY. AGAINST THIS TEAM, YOU GET THE FIRST ONE. AND THE RANGERS DIDN’T TONIGHT. OH, and those WHO “WANT THE FISHSTICKS” BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR IN THE PLAYOFFS. BE FUCKING CAREFUL. YOU WANT HISTORY TO REPEAT ITSELF LIKE LAST YEAR?! WAKE THE FUCK UP ON THAT. WAKE THE FUCK UP. GLAD LAV GOT PISSED, GLAD TROCH GOT PISSED(he showed his heart and soul). Glad that Fox, Vesey, and Troubs admitted what I’ve been saying the past few days(soon to be weeks) about putt. ing teams away and killing that team off. Fuck. Oh, before I forget, If anyone thinks JQ is gonna be the starter in game 1 of the playoffs or be THE playoff goalie over Igor? geez. Wasn’t Igor’s fault tonight. Vally preached it broken plays. And that’s what killed this team TONIGHT and besides the ZEBRAS getting on hands and knees for the precious ISLANDERS. FUCK
Rant over. Haven’t had one in a long time. But, they can’t play like this in a few week when the playoffs start. Everyone, move on from this one. Onto the Flyers on Thursday. Who are technically mathematically still in the race, but are like toast. And so, for the Rangers, TOAST EM. BURY THEM, TAKE THEM BEHIND THE SHED AND PUT THEM DOWN. Onto the Flyers.
Canucks fan coming in peace, the reffing was brutal, the hits got nasty. I hate the Islanders as much as you guys do (not because of Horvat just never liked the Isles) I’ll watch the game this weekend and hoping for a big Rangers win!
Roslovic really isn’t that good tbh
They should always have Rempe on the bench…they should stop scratching him
