Eat shit Carolina

 

[I Eat Crow]

MSL-like

If we're drawing parallels to 2014 here, I don't think I can take a Game 7 like that against the Pens again.

 

[Overcast]

Hope this team can harness the energy from tonight on Monday. What a f***ing game.

Reaves or Rooney for game 7? Love what Reaves brings between whistles but he’s definitely a step slow in the play and would really like to see a fourth line of Motte-Rooney-Goodrow.

Really more of a third line that could match up defensively against any line on Carolina and would allow us to really roll 4 lines. Also all 3 forwards can move up the lineup at times if necessary, either for certain situations/matchups/extra centers for faceoffs or just if lines need juggling

4-0 in elimination games.

Away I put Rooney in. If it was at MSG, I'd keep Reaves.

Gallant seems to support Igor on that penalty. Basically said it made sense to do.

Hunt over Rooney 100%. Reaves over Rooney as well.

I'd put Hunt over Reaves in at Carolina.

What games are you guys watching where Rooney losing faceoffs, opening up an apple turnover shop in his own zone, and getting our teams face smashed in looks good to you?

 

[hackeyman]

NO QUIT IN NEW YORK ! Excited for game 7. Let's finish of these woosie poosies.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

One of the most stressful 5-2 wins I can think of

My wife just declared Gallant best Rangers coach ever

Well done, boys! Game 7 it is!

LGR!

Das Boot is like exactly how these entire playoffs have felt.

 

[2Leetch_94]

Rangers love their elimination games.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Love this team win or lose Monday night. What a great season.

True. Hunt may do nothing but he usually doesn't hurt out there. Rooney was actively hurting this team at times out there.

 

[NCRanger]

The more we see it becomes clearer that Carolina’s system is predicated on matchups and being able to get away with subtle interference all over the ice. They also get easily frustrated when things don’t go their way.

Not sure about his scheme or deployment.

However, he gets them to play hard and compete.

Your wife has some good hockey insight.

Mine is just happy to see Brady Skjei again

 

[KOVALEV022473]

Someone here said one of the beat reporters said that both Blais and Goodrow were available *tonight*

If not conjecture, maybe hearsay

It was Andrew Gross. I don’t know how to embed tweets.

 

[Doctyl]

Rooney has a 38.05% CF, 29.92% xGF, and 0% GF in these playoffs. He is 38.75% on faceoffs. On the PK he has a -7.31% relCF, -3.82% relxGF.

He is the worst f***ing player on the roster. Reaves sucks too, but he's not in the same realm of suckage that Rooney is and he brings leadership or something. Do you guys like McKegg too? I genuinely don't get it.


Blais or Hunt would be fine on the 4th line. Other than that, Rooney can stay the f*** away

LOL

 

[Rangerfans]

I’m grateful the Rangers forced a game 7. But 25 shots is low. If they muster less than 20 in Carolina again...

It's quite apparent. The numbers are very telling.
