GDT: ECQF: Game 2 - New York Rangers vs Washington Capitals, 7pm ET, MSG, ESPN

[NYRangers16]

How is the crowd sounding on TV? It’s f***ing nuts here.

I'm not hearing it loud but I'm steaming to a TV so I assume Bluetooth issues.

 

[CasusBelli]

Apple TV

Interesting. I’m using ESPN app on my TV and can’t tell the difference. The Florida arena is brighter, but having been in their arena and MSG, I can say that theirs definitely feels brighter in person too. Other than that, frames are the same (TV is crap) on my end.

I hope Oshie comes down with a case of gingivitis

 

[Machinehead]

It’s why this league is a f***ing joke and ranks behind ping-pong

Nah I wouldn't say that's why. The other three major sports are just as bad.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Some guy on Twitter just compared MacCauley to Angel Hernandez. That's pretty much bang on.

Well. Except the lawsuits against the employer who keeps him employed for some unfathomable reason.

Reffing in the NHL makes NFL refs look professional.

That's how bad this is.

This is like if Angel Hernandez and Joe West mated and had a dumpster baby that liked hockey - Wes McCauley.

Colors look off and no where near as sharp

I know it’s MSG because the commercials look fine

 

[AKrangerfan]

Are you watching on ESPN+ or with a cable provider on ESPN?

I can't get it to play on Plus

 

[KOVALEV022473]

If Kreider wasn't just a complete idiot we might have taken control of the game and the series. What an absolutely braindead penalty.

It wasn’t a penalty, bro

 

[ThirdEye]

Washington is easily the weakest team we've played in the playoffs in ages. Watch us still somehow drag this out to 6 or more games

I am streaming it in my hotel (vacation) on Plus.

 

[Boris Zubov]

I thought so too at first. After the replay, it was a dive.

Regardless, those two were battling back & forth which happens 50 times a game. Either take them both off or let them f***ing play. Stop trying to influence the game.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

I think he gets it now. Funny since I think there were a few guys that all thought it was a bad play at first and I think every one of them changed their minds on replay. Was that bad of a call, lol.

playoffs are the perfect excuse to turn my TV up as loud as it can go and MSG always sounds wild during playoff games, love it.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Once that one ref got canned it pretty much proved that refs call games to make it close. No conspiracy there.

When one of the teams has a living legend that is playing in possibly his last playoffs ever, you know it’s going to be one sided.

I think some of you forget how had it was versus Pittsburgh in 2022. They didn’t even try to hide their bias. Went back to “normal” once they played Carolina.

 

[Larrybiv]

Love that shot at the end of period by k'Andre. Shows that he KNEW how much time was left......heads up in a very good way.

 

[Filip Chytil]

I hope Oshie comes down with a case of gingivitis

I told my dentist once that another dentist once told me that I may be at a higher risk of developing gonorrhea........meant to say gingivitis

 

[NYRangers16]

Lol Lundqvist is not pleased by the refs.

 

[Machinehead]

I hope Oshie comes down with a case of gingivitis

This is somehow tame but also completely savage.

I dunno if mouthwash is gonna cure that.

 

[hardnosed]

Is it me or does this goalie keep his catching glove almost on the ice especially when he's moving quickly to his left?

Yeah I feel like this isn’t talked about enough. Guy was on a hot mic admitting to giving makeup calls and the NHL brushed it aside as him going rogue. They all still do it.

On ESPN the crowd is muted. In MSG you’ll are coming in loud and clear.

 

[Clown Fiesta]

Honestly don’t think so, we came back and took the lead and limited them to one shot all in 10 minutes.

Why do they do that in certain buildings and not others? The Canes game the crowd was louder and I couldn't hear the announcers.
