GDT: ECQF: Game 3 - New York Rangers @ Washington Capitals, 7pm ET, TNT, MSG

[RangerLifer]

Outside of Detroit who obviously didn't make it, I wish we had drawn the Islanders in this round.

Shitty special teams, inability to hold leads and a shockingly hilarious unwillingness to engage physically at all? Would have been a f***ing cake walk.

I don't think Washington is good but they're not going to roll over like the NYI and will resort to goon tactics. They already tried last game and weren't too happy when the Rangers punched back.

I disagree. They would have been goons against us. Right now they don't want to risk hurting the Canes and helping us in the next round.

That guy might have the worst content I have ever seen

Laz is cool even though shit like this is incredibly goofy.

He just needs to realize that not every thought needs to be tweeted. I actually like his work as a color guy for College hockey with NESN.

I think game 2 is the most important non elimination game in any given series but what can you do.

I think it's the odd-number games. This game three is pivotal. If the Rangers win, no problem if we lose game four. We're going back home to finish it off. If we lose this game three, then winning game four is a must to avoid the series being tied.

Rangers currently have Chytil and Jones as healthy scratches. Not trying to get too high, I’ve been burnt too many times, but that’s damn good depth.

Holy jinx man

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

Biggest game of the season. This will determine the rest of the playoffs for this team.

They either come out angry and run all over the Caps or they show they haven't learned a thing from the previous two seasons and they're a bunch of brick headed idiots with no guts.

If Washington wins tonight, the Rangers season is over. Book it.

No excuses. FLA and CAR are sweeping their series.


Lemu?

A tad bit exaggerated but I do agree with the premise. This game will most definitely not determine the rest of the playoffs for this team.

This is too entitled lmao

Most important goal is; Silence the most annoying goal horn in the entire league.

ultimate test for a team in the playoffs is how well you can play on the road

It would be stress inducing but im perfectly happy not giving a f*** what they do on the road as long as they win every playoff game they have at home.

Exactly. Win every home game, win the Cup

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

win 7-1 tonight or don't bother showing up for game 4

Like we needed another reason to hate Oshie

But he won the US a skills competition 15 years ago! Somehow that’s excluded him from the narrative that he’s been a cheap shot artist for just as long

LETS JUST F G

 

[will1066]

I'm hearing on the wire that Alex Ovechkin will be a scratch tonight due to arthritis.

 

[Profet]

Someone needs to post Laf's shooting percentage before the stadium series and then after.

That will give everyone the answer they need.

Rempe ups Lafreniere's shooting percentage too?

 

[nyrallday]

I think we win a close 3-2 game tonight

 

[ReddestRum]

I'm going to say it. I want a f***ing sweep. It's exhausting watching us take games to 6-7 every playoff round for like a decade.

I think we close the series tonight

It would be stress inducing but im perfectly happy not giving a f*** what they do on the road as long as they win every playoff game they have at home.

Has there ever been a team in playoff history of any sport, any league, that has won a championship winning every series in G7? Just wondering.
