A big part of why FLorida is outplaying the Rangers is their foreplay game, gritty and full of grind. Rangers can play a similar game, but no where near the aggressiveness of Florida. Despite the stats that the Rangers have more hits, it's like them throwing a beach ball at FLorida, while the Panthers are throwing bowling balls. Panarin, Zib, Kreider, absolutely taken out of this series; I don't give Kreider too much grief because he performed well during Carolina, however, Panarin in full playoff mode – GHOST, Mika getting manhandled and playing like a deer caught in the headlights. Kakko needs to sit, he's completely useless, while Trouba needs to go after this season, the guy is a literal garbage can out there playing awful.
Florida is the better team. The fact that the series is 2-2 is a testament how insane is Igor. 40 SOG to win a game in OT is insane. This one is going to 7
I knew the rangers were doomed once wheeler was inserted in the lineup. He wasn't good before the injury
It's so frustrating seeing Mika and panerin play so good all season to only not show up in the playoffs.panerin looks lost.
Panthers in 6
Rangers haven't had their backs to the wall the entire playoffs…relax everyone
3:15 Exactly! That is NOT how the Coach drew it up, Trouba was much too aggressive there and it cost us! He was on the ice for all 3 FLA goals ā that speaks volumes.
The refs blindly ignoring kakko getting tripped is bullshit
Bread and Mika need to find a couple because they are invisible at the moment
Florida almost hurt their best player Roslovic . That was a fake hit so as not to blow his cover. Still bruiseless
Rangers actually played better had better chances if it wasnāt for all the terrible penalties, the amount of PP the panthers are getting is completely momentum killing for us either way Rangers got this no problem, WE WANT THE CUP
My take is that NYR are best when they are getting pucks deep into Floridaās zone, pressuring them to get pucks out, hitting, forcing turnovers, forcing Florida to carry/pass the puck up. Itās not like Florida are hockey geniuses in their own end. Florida is just doing the above mentioned strategy and the Rangers are trying to make plays at the blue line when the chances arenāt there. Every time they do the dump and hit strategy, theyāre the better team. They have to continue to do this ALL GAME
Man this reminds me of 94 against the Devils.
I think Mika will step up .
Panthers play a old school hockey.
Rangers better start playing a more physical game The panthers finish checks and flood the zone while the rangers chase them around. And yes the refs are helping the panthers who donāt need help as it is.
Fox is playing hurt like most of them. But that's pivotal. LET'S GO Rangers
Refs have been awful also , but still no excuse for the top line playing like crap , Pete should put Laffy line as the first line cause krieder ,mika and panarin aren't doing nothing ,š® trouba looks done and how you leave Reinhart all alone in front , stick to your man , mika dumb pass wtf was that ,just terrible lost
Worst players on the ice are Mika Panerin and Trouba. Stage is too big
Rangers are done. That was their chance yesterday and gave it away. Panthers are a better team that wants it more. Rangers need serious changes. Youāre never winning a cup with guys like Zibenajad or Trouba
Complaining about the refs like enough. The rangers got away with a high stick in game 2 overtime winner. Ranger supporters shouldnāt mention refs all series after that. Clowns š¤”
Boomer "Why don't the Rangers play like that?"… uhh… because they don't have the players to play like that… you have to build a team a certain way to play that style…
Everyone talking about the forwards not performing but what about this defense that can't seem to win a battle? Constant turnovers, bad passes and misplays by keandre, trouba, fox looks obviously hurt. Hard to set up on offense if your defense can't get the puck out of their zone
RANGERS ARE THE BEST HOCKEY TEAM ON THIS PLANET.
The "bad goal" you are talking about was scored by K.A. Miller pushing Igor's skate and the puck in the wrong direction.
Miller tried to push the puck out of harms way in a panic move and the puck went in the net. š
You are asking Igor to stop both Bennett and his teammate in that instance.
Rangers in 7 and Rangers top line will come alive
Expecting a complete no-show from the Rangers in game 5.
I think Mika is shell shocked from that hit by Lomberg Lord Farguaard
We need some Sean Avery-Matthew Barnaby-Stu Bickel type players .
I continue to expect Rangers will be outplayed in this series. But, I still expect them to find a way to win this series. Laffy is going to be good for two goals a game in the next two. Find one more goal from another ranger and Igor is going to do the rest. That should get us a split at least in the next two. Game 7, we play on vapors, with MSG behind us. We will get it done, I guarantee it.
