Post-Game Talk: Cooled by Cats

[mike14]

Meh, losing a game in Oct to a very good team isn't really a big deal, but it was disappointing that it basically looked exactly like the way the ECF was played.
Probably should have been about 6-3 in the end, Bob was very good.
We lack poise with the puck when they pressure us, and then we seem to panic a lot getting back in transition. Mika/Kreider really didn't work in this one

Florida this game:

 

[Synergy27]

Yeah. Frustrating game against a good team that knows how to stifle us. Gonna have to figure that out to win eh?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Wouldn't be a big deal to any other team. I would bet my life savings that if the Rangers play the Panthers again they will get embarrassed again.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Can't win em all.

 

[mike14]

Can't win em all.

Not with that attitude!

 

[Ruggs225]

Well it doesnt matter what igor gets paid. We can lose with him making 6, we can lose making 12… we will continue to lose u til we get rid of zib and kreider.

The Florida Panthers are the obnoxious insufferable douchebag that everyone hates getting all the girls. I hate that that team gets rewarded with success. I can't stand watching them destroy the game of hockey.

Helped a friend who is really going through it.

This game was over less than 3 minutes in.

I chose well.

Rangers certainly have things to clean up but gotta credit Florida...They came to play and looked pretty friggin good.

Not the same thing but I had the opportunity to spend my hard earned money on this game, thank God I didn't it was absolutely pathetic.

On the one hand, if Bob doesn’t make half of those 8 or so ridiculous saves, this game looks a lot different. On the other, our rush defense still sucks, also don’t know how to handle fast teams that apply constant pressure on the puck carrier, also also Mika and Lindgren need help.

lol

Leaving MSG. Mika absolutely sucks. The whole team didn’t play well tonight, but wtf Mika. Didn’t come close to engaging in a puck battle all night long. Also he turns it over on the PP every time.

We’re getting close to “I’ll take Ryan strome for Zibanejad” status.

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

Mika was pretty ugh tonight.

To be fair, Shesty also had to make some crazy saves, so those cancel each other out.

We went long stretches without generating anything.

It's like watching us play the Islanders a few years back but they can actually score.

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

The fancy stats indicate we were outplayed more often than not. That's what it looked like to me. They looked good in the first after the initial few minutes - a lot of chances. Needed to convert one.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Is there a chance that the hockey gods will do for the Rangers what they did for the Yankees with the Astros? Maybe not missing the playoffs but losing to someone else.

bottom 2 pairs got absolutely throttled (Miller and Fox were awesome). a rude reminder that this team simply doesn't have the correct personnel on defense to win a cup.

whats the vibe at MSG with regards to Mikas play?

His name is Jones.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Remember last year when they were shut down by the Preds early on in the season and didn't show up. This game did not feel like that. That game felt like a no show. What's bothering me about this game is it feels like we just aren't good enough.
