That was a beauty on the shorty. I agree he's struggled at times this year but I don't think he's been as bad as many here have said. I think he's had a lot of bad puckluck this year but hopefully that will change soon.
He has been bad offensively at even strength but he has been good otherwise I think. I don’t have much complaint about him and Kreider. They’re together for a reason. I’ve come to accept they won’t be an offensive force at even strength but they’re good otherwise. Worlds greatest third line.

Congratulations to the lads! Looking forward to seeing what these guys do in the playoffs next month.

Forwards were far worse than the Defense.

My favorite part of the game was Vesey interview after 1st period.

When she was going on about how well the Rangers had played that period, Vesey gave an Oscar-worthy performance by not asking her if she was insane.

Michelle Gingras is not very good.

I mean, they really kind of played a bad one tonight, and I'm not really harping on it.

They're entitled to one after a good stretch and, as I've mentioned, the Flyers aren't a matchup I'm crazy about for stylistic reasons.

I enjoyed the game.
I’d feel confident against the Flyers or Capitals. I don’t even know how the Capitals are in a playoff position.

Ok but the point stands! My dad is a boomer and he loves Sam.

I just asked him and he remembers Jim Gordon.
I’m just about 62 and I’ve been watching NYR since you could only see road games on ch9 broadcast TV. I’m talking 1967. Hahaha. I certainly remember Jim Gordon, and I too love Sam. Jim had Bill Chadwick for a long while. It was entertaining. Hahaha.

The defense last night was absolutely atrocious, even Fox was out of sorts. Miller and Schneider looked OK but not sure what the stats tell you. Scanlin was a level 1 bard that somehow stumbled into Mordor. Roslovic was absolute butt and should be the next one to sit.

Offensively the Rangers figured it out, but goodness every Flyer goal was telegraphed in slow motion.

On one of the goals in the 3rd, Laf has the puck in the O zone and was peeling back to the blue line. Instead of passing to the point man, he went too far and drop passed it to Fox who was forced to get it and got himself pinched too deep. Immediately went the other way for an odd man rush goal against. Bonehead plays all night.

They still won. Hockey is cruel

The Rangers shootout record 2-3 isn't great but otherwise they are 10-0 in the 5 minute overtime period.

Congrats to Artemi with his 100th point. A pretty wild game though. Took us a while to wake up. The Flyers were regularly getting behind our D and you can't blame any of the goals really on Igor. The Rempe blocked shot reminds me of Ortmeyer. That guy was nuts.

Really have to start games better. This isn’t going to cut it in the playoffs

Lafreniere continues to be a monster.

But man. As good as he is, imagine if we had traded him for Josh Anderson when we had the chance. That 6'3 powerhouse with a super reasonable $5+ mil contract and the 8 goals he brings to the table... we would have already clinched the president's trophy.

:sarcasm:

I will never let that stupidity from the main boards go away.

They lost to San Jose in OT.

Ha ha. Funny incident on the F train going home after the game. Bunch of Rangers fans, specifically boys with their dad they get off the train and there is one Flyer fan and he yells 1994. I look at the Flyers game and tell him really? You’re going to go there when it’s been since 1975? He shuts up and leaves the subway. Then the train operator opens his door and is like was that a Flyers fan who was butthurt from losing, I responded back Yup. The whole car cracks up. Let’s Go Rangers!!
If that kid wants to pull that crap, he had better go to Toronto.

I saw we have a US team doctor visiting Colorado. Hopefully he can prescribe Roslovic something to stop the allergic reaction to physical contact...
