[Chaels Arms]

Giving up way too much in the slot, although Goergiev and Hank probably should have had a couple of these too.

This would be indicative of great defense if shots against from the boards were really scary and shots from the middle were no big deal.

 

[Fitzy]

I still think we can win

Tampa could pull the goalie for the whole third period and we'd have trouble coming back.

 

[Edge]

I know and accept that everything I see this season is fairly typical for teams in our position.

But holy cow does that knowledge not make nights like this one any easier.

 

[Embryo]

I like that the Rangers are fighting back, like really fighting and throwing punches. But this Tampa team is just bigger and stronger and faster, its like the Soviet Elite team against a minor league team.

Lemieux ran over Vasilevskiy purposely and then started suckerpunching McDonagh

We’d be ripping Tampa if a player did that to the Rangers

McDonagh engages in a fight and got tuned. It happens.

 

[Fitzy]

Vally was in net the last time we gave up ten goals so he should be able to offer some experienced insight into this.

 

[Embryo]

we should just go ahead and switch to the post-game thread

lol the Knicks are actually winning

 

[Kovalev27]

You'd be a weird coach.

vally just said the same thing I said

I cannot agree with your assessment at all. Although Lemmy was looking for trouble, that is the NHL game protocol in a blowout where they do not let up while leading big. McD was willing. He got smoked

 

[Richard Banger]

I guarantee this is not going to happen in the third period by any stretch of the imagination.

Guess we'll see in the next few minutes

 

[frozenrubber]

McDonagh engages in a fight and got tuned. It happens.

McDonagh's one glove was still on. He was about to lay a crosscheck, but he wasn't a fully willing combatant

 

[aufheben]

Man it’s gonna be a bitch to get back to a positive goal differential.

 

[will1066]

Tampa is counting to 10 for us.

Vally was in net the last time we gave up ten goals so he should be able to offer some experienced insight into this.

He is, actually

He dove out of the way to try and avoid hitting him...

 

[JC704]

Lias Andersson has played 4 and a half mins and is a -3. Yikes

One play was Haley trying to fight Maroon, and one play was Smith getting undressed by Gourde.

He's a victim of circumstance.

Honestly, screw that. What are they supposed to do, rag the puck around in their d-zone for a period and a half? How about instead of expecting mercy from the other team you get it together and stop getting destroyed? I don't even think Tampa is playing that hard, they're just skating circles around us. They look like the Harlem Globetrotters of hockey.

 

[NCRanger]

And he was being pushed by a Tampa stick. Another “missed” thing from the refs.

I am trying to understand analytics more. What does it mean if one of the circles is bigger than the other?

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

One play was Haley trying to fight Maroon, and one play was Smith getting undressed by Gourde.

He's a victim of circumstance.

It's impossible to judge Lias fairly while he is stuck with scrubs game in game out.

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Terrible game and terrible trivia question.

 

[Fitzy]

How is it 9:20 and the third hasn't started yet this is murderous.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Awesome.

 

[nevesis]

f***.

 

[FoxyClean]

 

[Whoot Whoot]

did my first "turn it off already" of the season

 

[Richard Banger]

It's impossible to judge Lias fairly while he is stuck with scrubs game in game out.

What has he done to deserve anything better? He sucks ass. He needs to be sent down.
