Post-Game Talk: Alpha Males

My mother even texted me “ how dId she get this job?”

@will1066 called in a couple of favors.

Completely ruined my celebration. First I thought "I hope it wasn't offside", then I saw them huddling around a tablet, and then I heard about the high stick. I didn't even celebrate. Just a moment stolen from me.

I really am sorry for you. Probably would’ve happened to me too if I had any idea. It’s unfortunate we have to hold our breath now every time something good happens.

I have to admit, I wasn’t very aware of the whole high stick situation after the OT goal. We scored and I went berserk. I think I remember hearing somebody say something about a high stick but idk I was all over the place. Only this morning rewatching the game did I see the extent of the discussion and Trouba standing by the refs. I’m glad it didn’t ruin my celebration lol.

All OT goals get looked over by Toronto no matter what.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Reading the high stick stuff is wild to me because I don’t recall it even being mentioned on SN. They thought it was being looked at for off sides because they didn’t know why else it would be reviewed.

2014 SCF game 2 - Kings are awarded a good goal as Dwight King falls on top of Hank.

HF Boards: "Pfft. If your team isn't good enough to overcome a bad call, your team doesn't deserve to win. Quit yer bitchin'."

2024 ECF game 2 - Barclay Goodrow takes control of the puck with a borderline high stick in the neutral zone.

HF Boards: "OMFG!!!!!!! THAT WAS A HIGH STICK!!!!! BETTMAN WANTS BIG MARKET TEAMS TO WIN EVERY YEAR!!!!! THE NHL HAS BECOME THE WWE!!!!!!!"

Folks,

Just going to ask nicely , curb the negativity. I get some folks just want to see the world burn but it’s becoming an issue.

I’m not talking about criticism, heck I even criticize Panarin. It’s about the doom and Gloom. If you are here to doom or gloom this team it’s not the right forum for you.

Myself and the other mods have really tried to keep this place civil and fun and I just ask that you consider anything negative to post to maybe take a 2nd look and say “hey this is dooming and glooming”

Again, criticism isn’t the issue. No team is perfect , it’s about the over the top negativity that is basically trolling.

Thanks!

What i don't get is how that wasn't interference on Lomberg

Maybe you're deleting the posts but I haven't seen one negative post after the win, lol.

Yes.

Other than horn dogs you have to be the only person that thinks Emily is good. She's an amateur.

Mods, pls ban.

 

[Wtp99]

Lomberg is becoming my most hated player with his Marchand act.

Guys like him always get theirs
Maybe not today, but it will come back to haunt him

 

[kovazub94]

There’s no question Kakko ranks much higher than Brodzinski on the depth chart. I didn’t it give it another thought about the choice between these two. The only consideration I can see Laviolette would give to lean toward Brodz over Kakko is that he’s a more prominent PKer than he was in the lineup.

We need Panger back in there if only so Panarin can drink some of his magic juice and go on a tear.

Panarin was their best player yesterday.

 

[3rd Guy High]

Sort of my point. Miller has horrible judgment with his pinches. So, seems they told him not to. Kind of obvious when we see Lindgren of all people keep coming down the wall to keep the puck in, only to dump it around the boards except for that play in game 6. I haven't seen Miller come down the boards and circle the net at all.

A bit of conjecture, but it’s very possible he feels less confidence and that he has to shoulder more of the load defensively with Trouba, thus leading to him pinching less.

Counter-intuitively, it’s working out for the rangers the past two games. That pairing has been fine defensively at the cost of offense.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

BTW, Shaun Morash on WFAN is sure that the call that led to the Florida goal was terrible and a dive. I only saw it for like a second. Is he right?

 

[KennyWu]

Yes.

It's the Emily talk, isn't it?

I'm not going to say it was a dive, but it wasn't a penalty. The ice was dogshit and Barkov fell. Goodrow got called for being near him.

There is no question Fox is hurt, but even him at like 80% is better than other options. Just has to play through it.

Bottom 6 needed to score and they did, even if Trocheck was filling in on that line since Vesey went down. Goodrow has produced in these playoffs , has 4 goals , which is what he had all regular season. That is what I asked of him to step it up and he has.

Rempe had 9 hits last night(lead the team) played 10 mins, if he is going to get 10 mins a game or close to it, should keep him in. He puts question into the other team where they have to look over their shoulder to see if he is out there, and it throws off their game.

Mika was a mess last night some brutal turnovers. Panarin has gone into last year playoff Panarin, not good.

If we are going to take this series need more from them. Kinda annoyed Panarin got a secondary assist for really doing nothing. that first goal was all Fox Trocheck. Sorry but going to be hard on him, we need him to be the player he was in the regular season. A lot of times points are not the telling tale.

You have no idea

It was a bad call but I think Barkov just fell.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

At the risk of sounding like a brown noser, you couldn't pay me enough to mod these boards and you guys do it for free. Jah bless you guys.

Still not as bad as the NFL.

 

[Machinehead]

I wasn't expecting much to come of the review but I got super nervous when that vegetable Ferraro chimed in with "they're gonna waive that off."

 

[SML2]

Key point was mentioned about Rempe in post game.

For whatever reason, he keeps the crowd engaged. On the surface you would think there is no reason to dress him, there's got to be a better player. But in reality, every time he goes out the crowd goes into a frenzy. He's like having an energy pedal you can step on and get a boost at will. For that reason, I would keep him in the lineup.

He got to play last night. I'm more into the idea when he gets to play. I can't stand the mixed lines.

Rempe played well enough to be in the lineup. And Jiminy Crickets, Lavi actually played him as well. That was because Vesey was injured, but it all counts. He played well.

I didn't like the fact that he replaced Kakko instead of Vesey or Wennberg, but seems like the Vesey injury will correct that anyway.
