GDT: ECF: Game 2 - New York Rangers vs Florida Panthers, 8pm ET, ESPN

[Bob Richards]

Does Wennberg really only have 1 goal as a Ranger?

I don't believe this.

I literally don't care if you post stat sheets, game logs and video proof. I refuse to believe it.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Trouba not even hitting what use does he have besides that? Start throwing ‘bows Jake

 

[Kovalev27]

I don’t even think Barkov dove he just lost his balance and fell over

Ridiculous call

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

On a positive note, they dominated most of the period, but in the end they are tied going to intermission. If they can get back to the pressure they had at the start of the period, they should win. No idea if they actually can, though.

 

[noncents]

yeah just make sure you're not around when a player on the other team trips on his own feet or you'll get called for interference like Goodrow did

this is my point. penalties being called is not about actual infractions. you're gonna get called for them regardless. so actually earn them lol.

 

[tlk]

Subban obviously hates the Rangers. I think its just very unprofessional from him. He should be impartial. How he still has that job blows my mind.

He doesn't give a shit about anybody. He's just hyping.

 

[94leetch]

The imbalance in physicality is ridiculous.

 

[RangerLifer]

YOU ARE ALLOWED TO INTERFERE IN THE PLAYOFFS. YOU AILL NOT WIN IF YOU PLAY CLEAN

We got called for interference. They don't get called for it.

 

[LORDE]

Everything changed when that penalty was called "interference" instead of the gate & 5 min major with a call from the league looming tomorrow.

I'm sorry but that was the flip.

We did shit on that PP so that's on us, but the whole complexion shifted by 180 degrees.

I'm not usually a ref blamer but that was THE change.

 

[Zynbanejad]

Having dark thoughts

 

[DumpnChase12]

Well, it was a very good first 12 minutes. Back to the old ways after that...

 

[aufheben]

I’m so annoyed I just ate an entire coconut custard pie

 

[nevesis]

The Panthers are locked in.
Lav save us !
Are guys don't finish checks, I don't get it.

It’s infuriating, and leads me as a fan to just not care and spend money on the team anymore. If they don’t care, I don’t.

Player evaluation needs to go beyond skill. It’s a mindset and this team is built with too many nice guys. Too many guys who care about the health of the opposing team, too many BETA WEAK ‘MEN’ and not enough HATE.

I want a team full of men who HATE to lose more than they love to win.

 

[AirGut]

Florida has made it abundantly clear they are completely fine with sacrificing their own bodies and flopping themselves whenever they can, Trouba &/or Rempe are patiently waiting for a time to strike

 

[hardnosed]

Does Wennberg really only have 1 goal as a Ranger?

Don't even remember it. I don't watch many west coast games but from what I read, this guy was a good 2 way center, defensively responsible who can chip in a few goals. I have been very disappointed. I can't find one thing this guy does well.

 

[effen]

I don't believe this.

I literally don't care if you post stat sheets, game logs and video proof. I refuse to believe it.

There's no way that shitkicker scored a goal.

 

[DanielBrassard]

The lack of a third and 4 th line that can actually do a damn thing in the offensive zone is f***ing sickening.

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

We're forcing the Zib one timer again and when we do that the pp lives or dies on his stick

It dies on his stick before they can set up or even try to force the puck back to him

 

[Graves97]

I don’t even think Barkov dove he just lost his balance and fell over

Ridiculous call

Game management. They ignored a clear pick on Laf by mikkola a few min earlier

 

[jerseyjinx94]

I gotta agree that Bob has outplayed Shesty. We gotta finish on some of these chances and get them chasing the game a bit. A tie game, Shesterkin needs to be the best player on the ice for us to win.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Here’s another hot take, have Rempe out there screening Bob when the second unit gets 20 seconds of zone time. Maybe Trouba will finally get a shot through and on net for something to happen.

....the team is in the ECF

 

[Do you want ants]

Based on the way our series with the canes went they’ll stop calling us for penalties now…

 

[Boris Zubov]

We got called for interference. They don't get called for it.

We need to do it more...they can't/won't call all of them.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

This is a Man’s Game.
If any of the Rangers don’t Man-Up for the remainder of this game then they shouldn’t be allowed to ware the uniform going forward.
Team has a 90% PK. Take hard penalties. No ticky-tack lazy penalties.

We don’t need shrinking violets.
