    What are the chances Kane gets bumped from PP1 so Zbad can move back to his spot? Zero? Yeah that checks out.

  4. The2econdSpitter

    Need to see special teams shuffled.

  5. kvnklly

    I know its 2-2 on the scoresheet.

    But we played like dogshit the last 2 games and ***still*** could have won both games.

    Put those shots in and we fucking take this series

  6. ColdGloop

    After game 2- This is going swimmingly

    After game 4- hockey sucks

  9. jthomas694

    Need a bounce back game. Devils got themselves right in the mix. Would be brutal to go down 3-2 after being up 2-0

  10. wermbo

    The devils are out of their element. We have the mentality to see this through. Lets fucking go now rangers!!

  11. Algoresrythm

    B hawks turned Rangers lover.
    I am feeling it my friends ! LFG LFG The boys WANT it . They gotta WANT IT . And man I just know they got it

  12. ElectraGlacier

    Alright what does everyone think? We sweep the next two or it goes to game 7?

  15. Clear_Willow3379

    Im sensing a bottom 6 goal resurgence today. Jimmy Vesey I see you 👀

  17. RaidersJH34

    I’m getting heartburn just thinking about the game

  18. SirusRiddler

    Jets sign Aaron Rodgers and frankly I’m wary of the move. Mets are looking real mid for all the money spent though a mangled starting rotation doesn’t help. Rangers are basically back to square one after looking lifeless at home.

    And here I am having the most confidence in the Knicks right now. I question my choices in teams on a daily basis that’s for sure.

  19. LilMissLinNim

    Who’d have thought that we’d be sitting here today, and the Knicks would’ve dispatched the Cavs in 5, while the Rangers are trying to get the lead in their series after being up 2-0? I don’t want to have to put full focus on the Mets yet. The pain… WAKE THE FUCK UP!

  20. dmb4040

    If you told me that Igor would have a 1.44 GAA and a .941 sv% after 4 games, I would have thought we swept the series. I don’t like the position we put ourselves in, but we are playing well defensively for the most part. Hopefully a good practice yesterday and some adjustments and we can get back to scoring a few more to help Igor out. The Rangers never make it easy.

  22. Zuramaru29

    They really need to challenge Schmid who is looking stout facing easy chances. Stop with the long passes that don’t connect, play gritty hockey if that’s all they are giving you. Trouba should not have more SOG than our leading goal scorer or our top goal scorer of the playoffs.

  23. SuperLarrio-

    Im terrified…

    LETS FUCKING GOOOO!!!!!
    ?

  24. the_mair

    Just get shots on net and make Schmid make the saves

    Need a miss 100% of the shots you don’t take attitude today

  25. Theliteralbest1

    Just like how our experience showed in games 1 and 2, our experience will show tonight and we will win. Book it.

  26. NoeyBalbonzers

    They’re coming out with a new invisible man movie, starring artemi panarin. The big boys need to show up tonight and get pucks and bodies to the net!

  28. adsason

    Mika back to his office, cannot wait to see a clapper… don’t even care if it goes in, it’s just a cathartic sight to see knowing that it usually does (second?? in the league in pp goals and they moved him off it!!!).

    I wish Vlad or Chytil were moved into the bumper on pp1. Kane has been good on the pp but panarin and Kane are overkill, while the 2nd pp struggles to gain the zone. Would be great to see Kane or even panarin move down to pp2…. Would never happen though.

    If the top 6 don’t come out firing against the boards, break the kid line up and throw everyone into the blender. There’s some good combos out there if the kids team with the vets.

    Schmidt is human, test the guy, he’s made mainly positional saves so far and hasn’t had to worry about rebound shots.

  29. pinkwhitney24

    Dinner is at 7:30. Time to fucking eat.

  30. nysportsfan87

    Please, just win. We have the talent, the experience, the goalie. No excuses tonight.

  31. JPmoneyman

    I really hope they don’t hurt me tonight.

  32. jamdivi

    Hockey Gods..I’m sorry I gloated after the first 2 games. Please give Panarin and Zibanejad their superpowers back and I will never speak ill on another fanbase again.

    ​

    In Henrik’s name, Amen.

  33. xXDireLegendXx

    Fucking show up tonight. Let’s go

  34. ColinClayton

    3-2 nailbiter win and we win in 6 back at MSG

  35. ccafferata473

    Agenda for tonight:
    1. Warmups
    3. Eat
    4. Post Game
