Lavy is going to get fired within the next 2 yrs so he should just do this speech tonight before game

I'm amazed that one poster here in the previous thread said that they're playing worse every series without understanding that the opponents have been getting better.

I get as mad as anyone when they lose, but I am not stupid enough to question their effort or drive and call them cowards.

 

[Synergy27]

Man. Well. f***.

Team needs to hear this again.
LGR !!!!!

People say this is like the LA series. We had some looks against LA. Carolina was like the LA series. We scored overtime goals. If we scored overtime goals against LA, we win.

This is like Pittsburgh in 2016, in that, we're getting our asses kicked.

That 2016 series against the Penguins is the worst shellacking I can remember. I was at my Grandparents house for game 5 and at some point in the game Pittsburgh scored and I decided I had seen enough and I went out the front door and went for a long walk.

No other team in the East is in Florida's tier. We were likely the best chance, but the proof is in the pudding.

Regular season? Sure. The rough, attrition-filled, grind of a playoff series? Nope.

Still, it's only two games. Maybe Shesty steals one; maybe we get some bounces in another. Anything can happen.

We’ll Win Tonight

I feel like that’s copyrighted

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Let’s get the right vibes going here

As much as I like the kid, you simply can't dress Rempe tonight. My guess would be either Wheeler or Jones as a 7th D.

If Edstrom, Berard or Othmann can be a pain in the butt to play against, dress them tomorrow. They're young and don't know enough to be intimidated. If they show early that they can't hang, then staple them to the bench like you do with Rempe. Not like they're not playing a man short right now most games anyway.

Maybe one of the kids ignites something....

I do think this team can win this series. Yes, we're relying on Igor too much but if it wasn't for their PP goals, we'd be up in this series. Just don't go out with a whimper like the Tampa series. Go out fighting.

 

[DevilDog99]

I just want them to play their hearts out. Anyone going to Stout today or anywhere else to watch?

Contemplating heading to the city.

 

[Feel Shame]

2009 game 7. Sergei Federov's last goal in the NHL, and it was a snipe. Redden screen.

Remember it like yesterday. Hank was marvelous that series. We are going to need Igor to get to that level to win this series.

 

[Mike in Houston]

Not too many times, if at all, did the Rangers need to play with any semblance of desperation this season. Tonight they must. And I hope they do.

Would be absolutely nuts to see a rangers postseason run where the team only faced elimination once. I'm trying to remember when that's happened...

 

[Gardner McKay]

I've enjoyed this season. I've enjoyed this playoff run. This is the first time my girlfriend ever really started caring for hockey and its turning her into a fan.

Even if we don't go all the way I can't bring myself to take seasons like this for granted. If this is where it ends then so be it. Love posting on this board with you sickos where we all get mad online about a doofus hockey team.

How dare you come in here and take my words away, Bob Richards.

But yes, I fully agree. I'm not going to be mad. I'll be a bit disappointed but then I'll wake up Sunday, have breakfast with my family, pack for my golf trip, and immediately start bitching about off season moves that must happen but won't.

[HockeyBasedNYC]

For the first time this playoffs, I may not be able to watch this game live.

The Rangers just need to do one thing.

Make this the hardest game for the Panthers to win this playoffs.

Do that and you are bringing it back home.

 

[DoTheBlue]

Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Swap trouba for quick.

 

[Jack Hanson]

Lets win this one!!

[noncents]

just go get one game

 

[Mike in Houston]

Chris Kreider could set the record for most elimination game goals in NHL history tonight. But I'll just take a win any way we can get it.
