GDT: ECQF Game 2 : New York Rangers vs Pittsburgh Penguins - 7pm EST - MSG, TNT - Series (PIT 1-0)

The one guy who's matched Mika in the bad department is Trouba. Wow, terribad

 

[Machinehead]

That’s weird because it felt like we had the puck the whole period.

Yeah, that whole period was in their zone.

They were definitely dangerous when they had it but I thought we would have registered more offense. Kreider's shot is almost an automatic goal.

 

[mas0764]

Igor has been good but he really needs to take his game to another level.

Agreed. He’s been good but you know who else has been good? Both Pittsburgh goalies. I don’t think Shesterkin has robbed much yet all series. He’s been solid and steady not spectacular. If we wanted to go anywhere we needed spectacular.

 

[Go Rangers]

Cleanly of course. I would never cheer if Crosby took a shot to the jaw.

Boy I would!

 

[Svenhart2008]

Shesterkin is human today. Rest of the team has to put it away. By far the better team that period.

 

[Krams]

Malkin is such a dirty prick lmao. The shit him and Crysby get away with is obscene

 

[CasusBelli]

a pens life
1967-1991-who are you???
1991-1994-great job 2 cups
1995-2005-get owned by the caps or the flyers in the playoffs
2005-2008-cups
2008-2017-playoffs
2017-cup
2018-???-die

It’s a pretty sweet life, compared to most teams, who’ve experienced crap management and/or rebuilds for prolonged periods.

 

[Loff]

Such a timely goal to give up. Just knew something bad would happen when Crosby decided to go on a rush like that.

It never ends.

 

[chosen]

I think Shesty has something like a 94.5% in these two games so far? How do people put the blame on him?

Stupid people.

 

[Machinehead]

He thinks he's not allowed to go to the net

He's not

 

[Champs 94]

Boy I would!

That would be such a shame, wouldn't it?

 

[will1066]

Vatrano shoots better than he interviews, holy canned answers

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Sucks. Just a great play by a great player. Who I hate.

Now it's anyone's game again.

 

[Kovalev27]

I need way more from Trouba Mika Panarin Shesterkin in that order.

Mika and Trouba are playing their worst hockey of the year right now

 

[ognilacc]

It’s a pretty sweet life, compared to most teams, who’ve experienced crap management and/or rebuilds for prolonged periods.

yeah 90% of the teams in the league had some sort of rebuilding year or decade

 

[mas0764]

After 7 straight seasons of no playoffs, he should by all rights have been a career Ranger.

Yeah I feel cheated on that one to this day.

 

[DanielBrassard]

The Penguins definitely had far too many chances that period for my liking.

 

[mrmovies779]

The fact our top center has turned into a pumpkin and we lead going into the 3rd,gives me hope.Mika has to get going for us to have any chance

 

[Svenhart2008]

Mika should have had 2 goals by now. This is worrisome from him.

 

[Champs 94]

Sucks. Just a great play by a great player. Who I hate.

Now it's anyone's game again.

No, just shitty defense.

 

[DanielBrassard]

With the kid line barely playing we are basically a two-line team at the moment which isn't great because Crosby is killing both lines.

 

[Abooch68]

Rangers dominated play and all TNT talks about during intermission is Crosby. It’s sickening what the agenda of this league is.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Panarin's style of play just does not help in games like this. He makes great plays but his inability or refusal to skate with the puck really hurts. He either executes something great or the other team regains the puck.

 

[Jayan]

I need way more from Trouba Mika Panarin Shesterkin in that order.

Mika and Trouba are playing their worst hockey of the year right now

Luckily we can still win as long as Fox can stand on one leg, but Ya would really help if Mika and Panarin could play like they use to.

 

[Richard Banger]

Mika and Shesty really need to step up or this series will be over fast.
