GDT: ECQF Game 4 - New York Rangers @ Pittsburgh Penguins - 7pm EST, MSG, ESPN - Series (PIT 2-1)

[Machinehead]

It's so toxic in here

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Igor should’ve stopped that goal, you can’t be leaky like that in the playoffs. Sorry.

Didn’t Miller deflect it

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

Kreider probably broke his collar bone.

Prob but we wont know either way until the beginning of the 2nd

 

[mas0764]

Kids look good. Nemeth might single handedly cost us this series which is impressive.

Need to start finishing checks again.

Nemeth sucks but he’s definitely not single handedly costing us the series.

 

[common12]

Epic fail for Drury not getting rid of Nemeth and upgrading that position by the deadline. GG also takes blame for continuing to put him out there. Enough already.....mercy.

 

[SRHRangers]

Sick of the injuries. Let's f***ing hurt one of them Let's f***ing hurt one of them

We did. Rakell is still trying to count butterflies.

 

[Stugots]

I can’t think of a bottom pairing dman that we’ve had as bad as Nemeth in the post-lockout era. Jack Johnson maybe, but he didn’t cost us goals in a playoff series.

 

[will1066]

When Vally talked about Panarin in the pregame, I thought he was going to criticize him for being regular season, but he went on to commend his play.

 

[DialUp]

The better team on paper and the more experienced team — with a HOF core that’s been playing together for almost two decades. Shocking. No matter what the standings say, we were the underdogs going into this one.

I completely agree, but that isn't going to be the narrative. Because we MUST be insulted and offended as much as possible. God I hate towel waving. LETS GO RANGERS!

 

[DuneGoon84]

Pens are neutrazling our talent, we are at their pace and they have more experience doing it at this level. Too much puck watching

 

[Hire Sather]

If Kreider is hurt I want Gentzel out

 

[CasusBelli]

We are way too slow with some of these guys in the lineup. We are a losing every puck race.

Our twenty somethings are slower than their thirty somethings. You gotta think it’s a conditioning issue.

 

[duhmetreE]

SAME OL' SHIT

A lot of puck watching
Very little to no puck support
Horrible teamwork
Can't complete a pass tape to tape
Passing up on great shooting opportunities

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Apologies if I missed it; has the NHL released an image of the Pittsburgh goal crossing the goal line?

 

[Filip Chytil]

Please tell me something...

WHY does Zibanejad's hair look like it's perfectly blow dried?

Part of Zib's pre-game routine after consuming some tofu and listening to Beethoven

 

[mas0764]

They don’t even look like they belong here.

They don’t. This team lacks forward talent and half the defense is still in the AHL.

 

[Miamipuck]

It's so toxic in here

Nah dude this is the worst team ever playing as bad as can be. amirite?

 

[GENESISPuck94]

Please tell me something...

WHY does Zibanejad's hair look like it's perfectly blow dried?

Because it is!

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

All you Gallant apologists need to apologize. This is what we have been worried about all year.

Over reliance on vets. Kid line is carrying, but minutes still way too light.
Plays terrible d pairings rather than try to change it up: Nemeth. Nemeth. Seriously. This guy is still in.
Not maximizing talent: Benches Hunt but keeps playing Reeves. You trusted Hunt on line 2 but he isn't better than RR? Ok.

I feel better now.

 

[Jauffre]

Not enamored with that period. We are getting outworked. Again.

Nemeth singlehandedly killed our vibe, we had a decent start.

 

[Kravtsov420]

1) Sullivan is a 2 time cup winning coach.

2) how? I would have scratched Nemeth and Rooney, but that alone doesn't deserve this kind of reaction.

the dude legit said he doesn't believe in line matchups. that's how you end up with crosby out there with nemeth. and the fact that nemeth is even playing while continuing to cost us goals is deserving enough

 

[DialUp]

Apologies if I missed it; has the NHL released an image of the Pittsburgh goal crossing the goal line?

Yes. It clearly went in.

 

[MillerTime79]

Kreider update please. Is he coming back for the second? On his way to the hospital? Give us something.

 

[Crease]

We hurt three of em already. They're just catching up to us.

Rangers were missing their 2D and their entire fourth line, then Kreider got hurt.

That said, the Rangers continue to need more from guys like Zibanejad, Trouba, and Igor.

 

[Fitzy]

I'm not sure what the 'bright side' prognosis for Kreider looks like. Bruised neck? Bruised trachea?
