Post-Game Talk: Devil VI

[Cmox]

Also...as much slack as Schneider gets around here he threw some big hits on key guyslast night and scored a goal

It was great when Mcdonough pulled the Sam.

 

[17futurecap]

Igor is so locked in.

 

[blue425]

Can’t fkkn believe there are still “fans” who think the literal GOAL SONG is sung by going “ohhhh oh.”

The f***? The song has ONE word in it. GOAL. Isn't it called Slapshot though?

First game akira actually had to play goalie. First game he was remotely tested.

Sad but true. I said boys in five, and they should have won it in five, but Rangers. Nothing ever takes less than seven.

The game is simple vs him, get to the slot, and make him move laterally. Hes too big to beat when hes stationary and squared up facing shots from the outside

Krieder screaming at him was another plus. It f***s with your flow if you’re shaky.

 

[haohmaru]

Think this guy doesn't care?

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Nobody gonna give Turk props for adjusting last night? Bueeeelller.....Bueeeelllllerrrrr

 

[Larrybiv]

Gut check performance by Mika and Kreider.

I'm at the point where I tell Kane to see the press box for whoever they want to put in.

Igor is everything and anything we could have hoped for when Hank was done.

Just win one more game

I don't think anybody expected Kane to light up the scoreboard, but he has to be more than just a body out there. At least he's off PP1. He's been a liability, and is bringing literally nothing to the table. It's a shame, I was hoping for better. Probably not his fault though, GG needs to make a tough decision. Really should sit him, and like I said b4, bring up Brodzinski. And make the necessary line changes. Now watch that I said that, and GG doesn't take him out, watch Kaner get a big goal, somehow someway just to spite me. Do it! Dare ya'.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

I doesn’t matter how great we were in game 6, we have to be even better game 7. I can’t get excited tonight because it’s meaningless if we shit the bed game 7. we know how this team can be great one game, then be awful the next. just look at games 2 and 3. I was foolish enough to believe in games 3 and 4.

I want to see a real complete effort in game 7. otherwise this postseason is a complete failure. we can win on the road, we’ve done it twice already. we need to do it just once more.

 

[The Gloaming]

Pucks and bodies to the net. It's cliche as f*** but it needs to be done.

 

[Mike in Houston]

I wonder who was trying to play a little grab ass with Mollie.

 

[TominNC]

We can win without a complete effort. The other team is trying too. Will that still make the post season a complete failure? I don't really care about anything other than that we end up with one more goal than NJ tomorrow. Really that's ALL that matters. Igor is part of our team. So having the best goalie is as good or better than other teams having the best scorer or whatever.

Kane should be way better, yet he is 3rd in the team in points these playoffs and their shots leader

He's not sitting, there are other guys that need to be much better

 

[Levitate]

I think Kane has got a bit unlucky. That rebound chance going wide, some nice shots the goalie just getting a piece of, but he has to be far far better and “unlucky” doesn’t cut it

Summarizes my thoughts perfectly. Every word. Especially about believing in games 3 & 4

This team loves to make me believe, then rip the carpet out from under my feet.

I never learn

 

[Levitate]

Harassing someone during an interview would be bold even for dumbass hockey players. Wonder if someone was trying to move her or get by and got too handsy

But is very shitty she had to tell anyone that

From the Vancouver Police Department this morning:

Working with the BC Prosecution Service, VPD has dropped the arrest warrant for Gerard Gallant and will not be filing charges. The matter is now considered closed.

 

[Fitzy]

Lost in last night's win is that Panarin is now officially in his own head.

He really needs a big game 7 event like he had last season because he's struggling big time.

They kill you with a thousand paper cuts.

It’s woah oh oh - not goal.

Get it together people.

 

[qwertyaas]

Not true.

The 2nd period was great.

Agree. Night and day difference. Sure, some players like Chytil were still lost.

But much more pressure and physicality. Much better shot selection and followup for rebounds. Stepping up at the blue line. And no more of those useless weak perimeter shots with no pressure for rebounds.

Can't even compare games 4/5 and 6. Literally 2 different teams showed up.

It seems like the same thing when he tries to enter the zone. They just cut off his path along the boards and that's it. I know it's a bit more risky but maybe he should try cutting across into the middle of the ice? Testing their goalies glove hand with a quick shot like Tarasenko did. I know he doesn't have Tarasenko's wrist shot but still.

He won't do it unless it's on the power play or special situations where defenders are staying back playing prevent D and no defender will attack him.

 

[Leonardo87]

Didn’t have a chance to rewatch the game just some highlights. Safe to say we ran out of bubblegum ? lol

Today's NYR locker room discussion:
What is it like to see your name on the SC?
Talk led by Messrs. Goodrow, Kane and Tarasenko
Attendance Mandatory

 

[The New Russian Five]

I don't want to hear him compared to Brian Leetch EVER again. Leetch raised his game better than almost any player in history in the playoffs. Fox has been so average in this series. Skating alone should immediately disqualify the comparison.

Considering that the Devils are deliberately keying in on him when he has the puck, I think he has played great. Average my ass.
