Post-Game Talk: Alpha Males

[CasusBelli]

Bottom six did its job.
Goodrow clutch (obviously).
Fil was good.
Laffy showed flashes.
All other forwards were crap.
Miller with some decent plays.
Defense otherwise unremarkable.
Need to fix the PP.
Fox really hurting.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Panthers still with two real goals in the first two games. I mean us too but still. Other than sucking the life out of each game and hitting more than average I don't see what the big deal is with that team.

 

[Unpredictable1]

Need all da Goodrow haters to please stand up.

 

[Fvital92]

They looks better as a team, I just think we want it more.

Fox is playing like McDonagh in 2015 against Tampa Bay. Not ideal.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Anyone have a stream for the MSG postgame?

 

[Machinehead]

He does still kinda suck a lot of the time but hey, 4th liners suck. He's had huge moments.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Fellas… we were not losing on my watch.

 

[Machinehead]

I am still sweating like a pig. The playoffs are f***in' exercise.

Same. Doesn't help that it's like 87.

 

[effen]

I have to admit he’s like a dollar store Claude Lemieux

Every year some shit ass scrub has 9 goals in a Cup run with 2 GWGs.

Barclay Goodrow it's your year. Time to win the Fernando Pisani Memorial Trophy.

 

[17futurecap]

The third line really rebounded well after the first period.

Let Kakko play with Goodrow and Rempe, they need time in the offensive zone.

 

[Fatsam98]

Vinny

 

[jay from jersey]

Vesey Gona be out, Kakko coming back in

 

[TheDirtyH]

I owe @TheDirtyH an apology.

I was a bit much.

same. that's playoffs baby!!!!!! LGR

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I honestly couldn't enjoy the GWG as much as I wanted to because I instantly thought it would get challenged or reviewed or called back or some other BS.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

lol. I think CK pulled the cord on Vinny’s headset for the SVP interview.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Even if Vesey was not fine, surely Lavi saw how bad that 3rd line was today.

Go back to Roslo on the 1st line, Cuylle-Chytil-Kakko. Wennberg sits, unless Vesey is out.

Great win.

No no no. Chytil really helps that first line. I would be shocked if Lavi didn't play him there next game.

 

[Levitate]

Oh yeah and Trouba actually taking a second to see the panthers all drifting towards the boards to trap the puck if he tried to go up off the boards and instead flipping it up the middle of the ice where the rangers had players was one the most heady plays I’ve seen him make in a long time

 

[LOFIN]

I’d do the fourth line Goodrow - Wennberg - Rempe

I mean that's probably the reality, looked like a separated shoulder to Vesey?

 

[bl02]

6 points these playoffs. Great on the pk.
Gets zero pp time.
Guy was playing hurt all year.
If this is his last run with this team good for Goodrow.

 

[AirGut]

THE MAN I ALWAYS DOUBT INTERNALLY

 

[will1066]

We thoroughly outplayed them in OT but I was definitely expecting the worst after the ass save, lol

Florida really played passive like I had hoped. We had time and space to get out of the zone for once. They didn't bring the heavy forecheck and didn't pinch the points

 

[Chytilmania]

Thoughts:

-Bob has yet to be tested, we can score if we start playing better
-Rangers passing has been weak/soft
-Florida chances are coming off of very fixable mistakes IMO, can they keep up their hard forecheck and back check all series?
-Not sure how they'll be at home, but on the road Florida seemed very content just playing defense
-Mika, Panarin or the PP wake up then we have a great chance.

 

[CasusBelli]

I will say this: love how many Florida contracts are up this year. Enjoy cap hell and the wild card next year.

 

[Metranger]

You guys realize that that was the 1st and only wrist shot the Rangers took the whole game?

Shoot the F'n puck quickly. Said it the whole game. Beautiful shot. You gotta rifle it high on Bob.

 

[NYR94]

lol this Sportscenter interview with tro is a disaster technically
