GDT: ECF - Game 1 - New York Rangers vs Tampa Bay Lightning - 8pm EST, ESPN - Series (0-0)

[Fitzy]

they are going to 'legally' interfere a lot

it's a good learning lesson on what we have to learn to do.

As long as it’s called the same way, no complaints.

Except that gets called on us. Every time. Guaranteed.

 

[nevesis]

Tampa plays like absolute dirtbags

They win. Time for us to adopt the same model.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Rangers need to upgrade their 4th line. It has been awful

It has not been awful with Goodrow and Motte on it.

 

[Fataldogg]

If they're letting Tampa get away with the cross checks, the Rangers need to follow suit. If they put the whistles away, you need to step up your physical game.

 

[Crease]

Lightning as a lineup is noticeably larger than the Rangers.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Tampa plays like absolute dirtbags

Ok?

Give it back to them

 

[Number 9]

John cooper just pisses me off I hate that guy

 

[hockeyfanplayer]

Tampa plays like absolute dirtbags

Watch killorn and cerilli for excellent examples of such.

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

Lightning as a lineup is noticeably larger than the Rangers.

Then we need to be faster.

It has not been awful with Goodrow and Motte on it.

Reeves is always behind the play. It's a big problem.

Rangers need to upgrade their 4th line. It has been awful

Not gonna get much better than Motte and Goodrow.

 

[hockeyfanplayer]

Waiting for kucherov to take a dive, TBL feels it should not have to go more than 6 minutes without a PP.

 

[nevesis]

Tampa plays like MEN. This is the matchup we need for the young KIDS to learn how to play the right way.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

its weird to see us win faceoffs

 

[Raspewtin]

They’re not going to call any interference lol

Just play through it. they didn’t win back to backs by playing nice

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Tampa knows what they can get away with. We need to walk that fine line too

 

[RangerLifer]

its weird to see us win faceoffs

Thanks for the laugh!!

and yet, we get called when we do it.

I mean if it's blatant than yeah. Our guys are horrible about doing it when they do it. The young guys don't yet understand how to pull it off at this level subtly enough to avoid calls. The difference is most veteran guys know they need to keep there legs moving in some manner to make it appear they are battling for space, our guys do a lot of arm reaching to interfere while they stop moving their legs. It makes it much easier to call

They keep adding LED strips around the arena. What they really need is to add more scoreboard panels to the surface between the 200s deck and the mid-level boxes.

Yeesh

bad by miller

 

[bleedblue94]

I'm not picking on fox, but he needs to cut this cutesy shit out in his own zone at this time of the year. This isn't game 63 of the season.

 

[Fataldogg]

Very lucky they missed there. Would have been an easy goal.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

They’re playing nervous
