GDT: ECF #6 - 05/29/14 | Montreal Canadiens @ New York Rangers | 8:00 - NBC SPORTS, CBC

[Fitzy]

Talbot, not Lundqvist, officially got the loss for last game.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Avoid the early penalties so we can establish a flow to our game 5 v 5. Establishing our forecheck early is crucial.

I'm so nervous about the game that my hands are shaking thinking about it. This is about as much of a must win as it gets. There's no way that the Rangers will win a Game 7 in the Bell Centre.

Officials for tonight:

Wes McCauley, Dan O'Halloran/Brad Kovachik, Derek Amell

What games did they do this series?

 

[SavedByLundqvist]

The dangerous Kevin Bass.

I'll accept the analogy because the Mets won that game, but 12 year old me was nearly done in by it. I don't know that 39 year-old me has the stamina to go through that again. Not to mention that the Mets game was in the afternoon!

 

[AHB*]

Hank can't be career 0-5 with those numbers when closing out a series in less than 7. We beat the Devils and Thrashers in less than 7, no?

I believe it was his last 5 games.

Wes McCauley, Dan O'Halloran/Brad Kovachik, Derek Amell

They did game 2, which was pretty evenly officiated.

“@AGrossRecord: All healthy Rangers on ice for morning skate. No JT Miller, suspected shoulder injury.”

 

[Raspewtin]

Read this in the Post this morning...

"goalie Henrik Lundqvist hardly blinks while facing elimination, carrying a 10-2 record over the past three seasons, with a 1.32 goals-against average and a .957 save percentage.
But those numbers in games when they have had a chance to close a team out, not in a Game 7?
He is 0-5, with a 5.53 goals-against average and a .808 save percentage. In four of those games he was pulled midway through, including Tuesday night in Montreal, when he gave up four goals on 19 shots and lasted just 28:58 before getting replaced by Cam Talbot."

Yikes...

Jesus christ what a horrendous stat......

 

[NYR89]

I could watch this ****ing video all ****ing day. Let's ****ing go boys. One ****ing win left before going to the ****ing Stanley Cup Finals.



Tonight has to be the night where someone steps up and cements themselves in Rangers lore. Whose it going to be. Kreider? Moore? Nash? MSL? Zuccarello? I personally would love to see McDonagh get the winner

 

[LORENZO]

Tonight is going to be unbearable, right now I want two very early lucky goals, then a wonder goal at the start of the 2nd. 3-0

 

[Doctor King Schultz]

Can we stay out of the box tonight?

 

[nyrpassion]

Wearing my lucky socks to work, Rangers boxers, the whole 9.
Pls win.

 

[nevesis]

@AGrossRecord: Raphael Diaz will play the left side paired with Kevin Klein. As before.

 

[ret513]

Must win... Really don't want to go to the finals exhausted. Please close this out already!

 

[FOD]

They did game 2, which was pretty evenly officiated.

No problem with these officials.

 

[AHB*]

Montreal has embarrassed the sport. The only thing people are talking about is the diving and whining. This is an O6 matchup between two of the most popular teams in the league, both of which haven't seen the finals in 20+ years.

Yet, the only thing the layman's are talking about is the diving.

Send these jokers home.

 

[NikC]

Rangers win tonight. No one wants to go back to Montreal.

Play hard and disciplined from the start. Get the early lead and build on it.

Keep your foot on their throats.

enough of the Canadians....

 

[Brooklyndevil]

I went with the Rangers in 6 and I'll stick with it. Good luck Ranger fans.

 

[Hemlawk86]

The crowd needs to be loud.

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

The 32-year-old is a career 10-2 when facing elimination. In six career Game 7 appearances, Lundqvist is 5-1 with a 1.00 goals-against average and a .965 save percentage, with one shutout

Seeing as Montreal is saying this is an elimination game for us since they guarantee a win in game 7... good stats to have...

Does anyone have the stats on Lundy in games following a playoff loss?

No logical or real Habs fan would say that...... I would love for the Habs to be in the Rangers position right now but unfortunately they aren't.... Should be a great game tonight.....

 

[Bullseyes]

Lets go Rangers.

End it tonight.

I can't watch another game 7.

 

[jerseyjinx94]

Hah, you're studying for the bar, too?

I passed the IL bar in 2010. Good luck to you both.

Yeah, I'm taking the Florida Bar at the end of July. Of course, the Rangers make a Cup run the year I need to focus...

Good luck to you Bird Law and thanks for the luck McD.

 

[Jarkko Immonen]

Please. Just. Win.

if you truly hate the habs, you need to monitor this twitter account. I can't think of a bigger habs fan in the pop culture:
