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

[Whoot Whoot]

Hot take; that was a good shot and not Bob's fault

 

[Matty Sundin]

Probably not ideal for this to go 7 games for the winner. That was physical

 

[GG96]

It was in the wrong zone for a challenge

It wasn’t a high stick anyway. It looks bad because Goody comes down on jt, but it is below the crossbar when he hits it.

Anyone saying anything else for the next 40 hours is just sour grapes

 

[Captain Lindy]

Surprised they didnt challenge that.

The refs told them to pound sand.

 

[Chaos2k7]

I want to see how the atmosphere is at Sunrise when half the Arena are Ranger fans.

Haven't seen a postseason game in Florida I gues

 

[gach]

Definitely the grittiest and hardest working. Not the most skilled but definitely got enough, but he's got the smarts and not afraid of the dirty areaz

I agree

 

[Grifter3511]

Surprised they didnt challenge that.

Pretty sure they can't. All winning goals are reviewed automatically I think? But it really looked to me like he didn't make contact with it until his stick was lower than his shoulders.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Crazy that Bobrovsky had a 12 playoff game OT win streak broken tonight. Both goalies played awesome hockey,

I think a 12 game OT win streak like a 12 game OT losing streak is largely luck. Not to say he's not a crunch time goalie but OT is generally a coin flip. That said impressive streak because there is definitely a percentage of straight up clutchness in that.

 

[TheBeard]

Goodrow just has a knack for being a winner.

Tell that to the 63 save 4OT win against Carolina last year.

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Rangers in 5

Panthers are toast. They looked like crap tonight

I’m curious as to what you are smoking.

 

[The don godfather]

Tough to gage who wins this series.

 

[Leonardo87]

Yeah, even last game, Rangers lost 3-0 but it was an own goal, and an empty netter with that. Goaltending has been very tight in this series.

 

[Tawnos]

Doesn’t a missed puck touched with a high stick have to happen in the offensive for a goal to be overturned?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I didn't say that he wasn't good or isn't good. But Shesterkin had an over 70 shot OT game against the Penguins that he lost. Also, I'm pretty sure both Brodeur and Lundqvist are career sub 0.500 playoff OT goalies. Not 100% sure but I think I heard that.

 

[Grifter3511]

Doesn’t a missed puck touched with a high stick have to happen in the offensive for a goal to be overturned?

That could very well be true too. I've completely lost track of the challenging/review rules.

 

[Ezekial]

I want to see how the atmosphere is at Sunrise when half the Arena are Ranger fans.

Can't see how that hurts the panthers after watching these first 2 games at MSG

Doesn’t a missed puck touched with a high stick have to happen in the offensive for a goal to be overturned?

Yes, and it wasn't a high stick anyway. The review was probably to confirm onside.

 

[Tawnos]

That could very well be true too. I've completely lost track of the challenging/review rules.

Pretty sure that’s what Ferraro was blabbering about when he said “it’s the wrong zone for it”… but he’s not always the most coherent.

 

[Squiffy]

Cant you challenge a high stick

What high stick, off the sauce pass? They were looking at offside for the challenge, which was reasonably close but not that close.

 

[Matty Sundin]

According to hf logic. You lose a game you are done lol
Cats ain’t done yet.

 

[Grifter3511]

I didn't say that he wasn't good or isn't good. But Shesterkin had an over 70 shot OT game against the Penguins that he lost. Also, I'm pretty sure both Brodeur and Lundqvist are career sub 0.500 playoff OT goalies. Not 100% sure but I think I heard that.

Oh it's a safe bet that the team in front of Lundqvist scored less than half the time in OT.

 

[Ratsreign]

Best of 5

Brodeur played on a defensive team in the dead puck era. His career high in saves in a game is probably, like, 23 in a 5OT barnburner.

 

[Cloned]

Maurice always gives entertaining pressers lol. He’s like a more deadpan version of Sutter. And Sutter was pretty deadpan.

 

[Fvital92]

I think Florida looks like a better team afete 2 games. I like our mojo better. LGR.

 

[Jersey Fan 12]

It was in the wrong zone for a challenge

And four officials didn't see it. What are the odds?
