GDT: ECF - Game 3 - New York Rangers @ Tampa Bay Lightning - 3pm EST, ESPN - Series (NYR 2-0)

[GoAwayPanarin]

Buy out Trouba now.

Seriously, even if we win this series I don't want to see what he's going to do in the finals.

 

[Glennsoe]

Only saw 1 team on the ice in the third..

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Anyone remotely blaming Igor for this should log the f*** off right now. I've seen at least two posts doing just such.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Tampa needed the refs to bail them out & had almost every random loose puck bounce their way in order to win. Game 4 is ours.

 

[will1066]

Did MSG pipe Kaplan's interviews through the PA like Tampa is?

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Frustrating loss. Trouba will burn the tape for this one.

He's come back with pretty strong games much of this season after a bad one. Hopefully he can do the same on Tuesday.

 

[Kravtsov420]

Panarin is baby shit soft

 

[Cmox]

On to the next but it’s obvious they’re calling Trouba on everything.

 

[haveandare]

Yes. Unfortunately


Liter number 4 incoming (albeit with backup).- beat that Bitches

On man that is a bummer, though well deserved for him. Glad I saw him the few times i did

Yeah but we still got Trouba and Kevin f***ing Rooney to look forward to in game 4.

 

[2Leetch_94]

Trouba with stupidity but some of the calls are f***ing atrocious - the amount of holding, grabbing and cross checking these assholes were getting away with in games one and two - to the calls they get here.

It's called Tampa knowing their season is on the line and Trouba giving them every ounce of momentum needed. Then Rangers get a break with a 4 minute powerplay and Trouba coughs up the puck at the blueline and proceeds to take another penalty to shift momentum away. My lord, that had to be one of the most worthless performances from a single player in a long, long time.

 

[GlasgowNewYorkRanger]

Having two slow guys on the point sometimes puts us in peril. It’s happened multiple times in playoffs. Trouba and Fox can not catch guys breaking the other way

Fox usually gets back with great positioning or a great stick, Trouba would be lucky to catch a cart horse.

 

[will1066]

Double minor and didn't use it. Anyone who says Strome doesn't help on the PP needs to look at themselves in the mirror

 

[The Crypto Guy]

STOP PLAYING PANARIN 18 minutes. Guy is clearly injured and f***ing brutal at ES.

 

[Gordon Bombay]

Trouba was bad but so was that phantom penalty early in third. Team then proceeded to not even be able to complete a pass

Not sure how the center ice ref can call a hold on a player when his hand is literally behind everything. There's no F'n way he actually saw a hold.

Nevermind we should've started the period on a PP for that bitch move by Maroon.

 

[NYR94]

I think so too. He isn't the only one who needs to be better so he's not alone in that regard.

 

[Rangers in 7]

We gave away that game

 

[hackeyman]

We gave away that game

It was stolen.

 

[bleedblue94]

How are people complaining about officiating today. Nyr had a double minor pp with 7 mins left in a tie game and did nothing but shit the bed and lose the game. The team blew it and didn't look the same once they were down to 11 forwards. That was a huge factor.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Why the f*** is Trouba STILL on the powerplay? His shot sucks, his shot selection sucks, just about everything about Trouba on the PP sucks. GET HIM OFF THE ICE.

Just keeping the seat warm for Zac Jones...I hope

 

[Embryo]

Nothing worth getting comes easy. We weren't gonna sweep Tampa, let's be real. We still won 2 games already and only need to win 2 more.

 

[hackeyman]

f***ing announcers

 

[bleedblue94]

STOP PLAYING PANARIN 18 minutes. Guy is clearly injured and f***ing brutal at ES.

It's not injury. It's ineffectiveness in tight checking games like the playoffs

 

[SA16]

It's not injury. It's ineffectiveness in tight checking games like the playoffs

This is such a lazy cliche. These playoff games have not been tight checking at all. They've been quite back and forth actually.

Because the game may not be tied if it wasn't for a phantom call to start the 3rd?

And the refs also didn't call the game the same way they did in the first 2?

We weren't as good but let's not act like the refs didn't play a part here
