GDT: ECF - Game 4 - New York Rangers @ Tampa Bay Lightning - 8pm EST, ESPN - Series (NYR 2-1)

[DuneGoon84]

When we are reactive we suck when we are proactive we are damn good. They found out that pressuring us as soon as players get a pass we cough up. It's been the formula all season against us.

 

[RangerLifer]

Getting shut out tonight.

Reverse jinx, I hope.

 

[Richard Banger]

Rangers seemed to find their legs in the last 5. Hopefully they come out with a few goals in the second

 

[DudMan28]

Another offensive zone faceoff, another shift starting with our 4th line and 3rd pair.

He’s trying to hide them there but he doesn’t realize that TB (and every team we’ve played this playoffs) just breaks out in one pass and then they’re hemmed for 45 seconds

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

Kakko 3:10. Reaves 3:24 Laf 3:36 Chytl 3:43

Defend GG you sycophants.

 

[mike14]

Not sure we can play much worse.

I assume he's injured but Panarin just not good enough for $11.5m per

KK and Laf on pace for less than 10 mins, Chytil for just over 11...

 

[Boris Zubov]

I've been holding out, but I'm officially on the Reaves needs to sit bandwagon. He brings nothing to the lineup....he's not engaged, he's stopped hitting people & he can't f***ing skate. Letting Maroon loose on that goal was unforgivable.

 

[Rangers in 7]

That could have been worse...again this Tampa is very beatable

Agreed Tampa just looks slow which is something I never thought I’d say

 

[Kords]

The fact that Panarin gets paid McDavid money makes this soooo much worse to watch. If he looks like this next year in the post season, something is gonna have to give. He's killing this team right now.

 

[Peltz]

Plenty of time to regroup.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Better to finish.

 

[Chytilmania]

Typical sloppy road period with zero intensity.

 

[Crease]

Losing Strome made two lines worse.

 

[Synergy27]

McDonagh just teeing off on some cross checks in front

Noticed this as well. Guy is allowed to assault guys with impunity in front of the net. Frustrating as hell to watch.

 

[bl02]

If you accept that Gallant isn't going to play the Kid line more than 12 minutes a night, it's more relaxing.

I’m not shocked I’ve accepted it what I don’t understand is what happened to his best friend Hunt who can’t even get in for Reaves who cost us a goal and penalty already

 

[I Eat Crow]

All things considered, down 1 going into the intermission is a fantastic outcome.

Tampa is trapping the shit out of the Rangers and are looking to counterpunch off turnovers in the neutral zone. Nothing open up the middle for the Rangers. Credit to them for adjusting. Rangers need to get the puck deep, cycle and score ugly to have a chance tonight. I don't see it so far.

 

[DialUp]

I think Tampa scoring the first goal calmed my nerves.

Hopefully it calmed theirs too.

Give me two this period.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Allowing Zach f***ing Bogosion to spin o Rama his way into the slot on a 1 on 4 AND not picking up the trailer for the rebound was just absolutely horrible. Igor needs to absorb that puck too, shots to your chest can’t be rebounds and if they are you damn well better stop it. Not flail from the top of the crease.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Yeah, I was actually fine with that. I like us in low event hockey.

Stay with it.

Please for the love of f***ing God play the Kid Line more. Hockey is honestly so easy and these 200 ass year old men make it so hard.

Fourth line had one decent shift at the end. Now watch them get even more ice time.

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

Kid line: 60% corsi. GG doing GG things.

 

[Boris Zubov]

The fact that Panarin gets paid McDavid money makes this soooo much worse to watch. If he looks like this next year in the post season, something is gonna have to give. He's killing this team right now.

Killing is an understatement....How many backhand cross ice passes need to turn into scoring chances the other way before something changes.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

The Bolts are on our guys like stink on a monkey.

Perhaps you should bathe your monkey more often

 

[Bob Richards]

I've watched the kid line cycle the puck like lunatics all series and they're playing as much as Ryan Reaves is.

I hate NHL coaches so goddamn much lmao.

 

[savebyrichter94]

f*** it, guess we’ll just have to win one of those games people say we didn’t deserve to and piss them all off

 

[LeetchisGod]

NYR outplayed Tampa for much of game 3 and still lost. Time to return the favor.

What game were you watching? We were garbage 5 on 5 in that game.
