GDT: ECQF Game 1 : New York Rangers vs Pittsburgh Penguins - 7pm EST - MSG, ESPN - Series (0-0)

[JRinNYC]

Man can you imagine if the Rangers played this way for 98 games this season!!

 

[LORDE]

Their second periods are always problematic

I'm scared of this

 

[Crease]

Shots were closer than I thought, 15-10 Rangers

Pens piled on their shots during their two powerplays. Did nothing the other 17:00 minutes.

 

[Ginger Papa]

Veteran coach got them ready for the playoffs

Agree with you 100%

Gerard chose a Lineup that was ready to dispense the Old Ultra Violence

 

[huerter]

ONLY complaint on a great period was Laf needs more ice time. Tied with Reaves with 4 hits. He played less than 4 minutes. He was EVERYWHERE. By everywhere I mean everywhere in the offensive zone because that is where the kid line spent all of their time. That was incredible!

Matchups bro.

 

[Miamipuck]

Pens and Devils fans losing their minds on the main boards, lmao

f*** each and every one of those assholes.

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Messier loves the hit and can't hide it. Chelios slurring his words.

QUESTION

 

[zlev]

love to see the Penguins fans crying about the first call that hasn't gone their way in 17 years lol

 

[Unpredictable1]

Shouldn't have gotten anything. Textbook hit. But they gave it because it was "late." After 16 years straight you'd think the Pens would know to keep their heads up in the playoffs.

That was a fantastic hit.

That got called because it was on the Penguins. People are free to disagree with me all ya want. lol

 

[TGWL]

Hopefully that hit didn't wake them up.

 

[Number 9]

Messier commentary on the hit is great. Cut to the modano elbow.

 

[Conrad McBenis]

 

[nevesis]

Shocked that wasn’t a major, but don’t expect anything less from the zebras.

f*** the pens. LFG.

 

[Raspewtin]

chelios should check in to AA instead of doing whatever he’s doing now

 

[egelband]

delete. wrong board.

Very lucky. That hit was not good. Panarin was checking the guy already. In that case i think you’ve got to hold up. Just sealing him off would have been plenty. That said, the blood was boiling after the refs allowed the pens guy to go speed bag on Kreider. Half that injury on the refs.

 

[RickChartraw]

Messier loves the hit and can't hide it. Chelios slurring his words.

Goals and Elbows. he loves it.

Live look-in: Caps and Cats are playing reg season pace. Caps up 1-0 on a Wilson PPG

 

[hackeyman]

QUESTION

If Reavo hits a Penguin and drives them right through the boards stopping the game ......will Reavo get a delay of game penalty ?

 

[Hire Sather]

Something I notice with the playoff schedule this year is they are finally staggering all the start times

 

[Atax]

Honestly it looks like Lindgrens shoulder hits his head on the follow through. He doesnt elbow him at all. You could argue late/interference, but he doesnt leave his feet and elbow is tucked.

 

[Doctyl]

Oh I forgot how toxic and fun the playoff board gets. I need @Megustaelhockey to keep me out of trouble

 

[Irishguy42]

Something I notice with the playoff schedule this year is they are finally staggering all the start times

NHL scheduling finally doing something right for once.

 

[zlev]

this bobby cannavale commercial is f***ing hilarious

 

[Raspewtin]

don’t need to be as good the next period but don’t let up significantly
