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

[Feel Shame]

Bob Wischusen is replacing Sean McDonough tonight for Game 2. Sean is apparently under the weather.

Great. Competent play by play. No long winded stories. McDonough sucks at calling hockey. He should bow out and go back to NESN and the Red Sox. He truly belongs there.

If my lurking and memory serve me correct, aren’t you the guy who loves Kravstov?

You must’ve mistaken me for our friend @GoAwayPanarin
Welcome

Here are the teams still in the running for ultimate loser.

If the Rangers lose in the Finals, it's the Islanders.

If the Panthers lose in the Finals it's Toronto.

If the Stars lose in the Finals, it's Nashville.

If the Oilers lose in the Finals, it's Winnipeg.

The ultimate loser in 2023 was the Rangers.

 

[Alluckks]

Florida players were hitting guys like Fox a full 2 seconds after they got rid of the puck. Do we get the same allowance?

 

[Priorae]

We’ll win tonight and go down to NY south 1-1. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s decisive.

 

[WojtekWolski86]

Maybe the Rangers can sign and play a 1st rounder that was playing in some college in Boston to add some spark like they did back in the day. You know if we're trying to repeat history in all.


(Not a serious suggestion)

He has to be better than Kakko

 

[will1066]

Pretty wild he’s an inch away from a primary assist and a goal off the pass from Gus last game.

Kakko has been trending down in this poor four game stretch at five on five though, pretty much every forward has a better XG, outside of whatever the hell Goodrow and Vesey are doing out there.

His offseason could be wild

Should've traded Kakko at the deadline. Packaged him with something to get a piece.

Not if it's Rempe. Player must still have the puck and Rempe has to crouch very low when he makes contact, but not low enough that he clips/bridges the guy ala Necas on Trouba

Why Jimbo on Line 1, Mr. Valiquette?

 

[17futurecap]

His offseason could be wild

Sharks, Ducks and Hawks picking 33-35 in the draft, that will be the trade to one and people are going to lose their mind.

 

[Machinehead]

Why Jimbo on Line 1, Mr. Valiquette?

Vince: "Roslovic is definitely in."

Steve: "Screw that noise."

 

[Filip Chytil]

The Jimbo isn't a gamer

The Jimbo isn't a gamer

He's doing an amazing job of keeping his mind off hockey

 

[EdJovanovski]

LMAO
@DanielBrassard they thought you were him

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Biy has Vesey sure earned that promotion .

 

[Filip Chytil]

nvm

Well played

 

[Machinehead]

Biy has Vesey sure earned that promotion .

Steve is just posting what he would do. Vince literally already confirmed that lineup is impossible based on who's playing.

He does that a lot I should have known

This only makes sense if we're trying to neutralize the Barkov line.

Been saying since a while, our biggest downfall might be that we didn't give Othmann some time in the nhl and see if he could have been an option for the Zib Kreider line. He's exactly the type of player that's needed in this series, doesn't back down, throws his body and can chip in offensively. The other issue is that some of our d is playing scared and panicking, Fox because he's injured and smallish, Gus cus he's just hearing footsteps, and Lindgren because he is also smallish.
Hopefully we put our best foot forward tonight.
