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

[SML2]

We can sit here and debate how many should be stopped but this team is hot garbage. They don't have the depth like other teams to get away with winning games with injuries and playing this poorly. The loss of Goodrow and Lindgren is too big for them. Their star players don't come up big enough to over come those losses because they can't play defense...

Don't have the depth?

Every team has to handle injuries.

If we can't handle losing those two, we have problems.

A young team getting playoff experience can be a very painful thing

That experience is only worth anything if you learn from it, which this loser team never does.

Igor, I survived shitty whole seasons with Henrik Lundqvist. I knew Henrik Lundqvist. Henrik Lundqvist was (almost) a friend of mine. Igor, you're no Henrik Lundqvist.

This. Massive choke job by Igor. Maybe he shouldn’t have laid on the ice like a moron at the end of game 2.

Lundqvist propped up far worse teams than this team in the playoffs. Even if we lost the games were always close.

We were so enamored with Mika's production and playmaking this year we overlooked his obvious soft play. Makes sense Crosby would tear the 1st line up.

 

[Kravtsov420]

can we call a cab for gallant and hire trotz for game 6

 

[TriFF51]

A young team getting playoff experience can be a very painful thing

Igor experience..."I never wanna do this again".

 

[Bob Richards]

Igor has given up 8 goals in like 54 minutes in Pittsburgh

 

[bl02]

The Rangers have quit

Fox has quit Zibanejad has quit

Zibby has a lot of shots you know he hasn’t quit lol he’s doing great

 

[Machinehead]

They are young and rattled says the ESPN telecast. What the hell is the excuse for Zibanejad and Kreider and Panarin and Strome for doing nothing?

I’m serious, I would trade Kreider this offseason if you can talk him into waiving.

Time to turn it over to Kakko and Lafreniere.

Zibanejad and Panarin have also done f*** all in the playoffs.

The only guy on the roster with any experience worth a damn is Kreider.

They've fallen apart here after that tying goal.

This. Massive choke job by Igor. Maybe he shouldn’t have laid on the ice like a moron at the end of game 2.

Lundqvist propped up far worse teams than this team in the playoffs. Even if we lost the games were always close.

I was also half checking to see who would recognize a nerdy and 35 year old political reference.

 

[TomPotty]

member that time we got rid of Tony D for a backup that we lose in the offseason?

 

[MysticLeviathan]

welp 4-2

 

[Fataldogg]

I’d rather him stand there and look at what he’s done.

This series is over anyway.

We came back down 3-1 against Pittsburgh before, with less talent on the ice, and without a 3rd string goalie in net.

Of course, however, we got vastly superior goaltending then.

Its still doable if our goaltending can get its act together.

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

Wow. Shoot the puck.

 

[will1066]

A couple of particular persons were saying, don't worry Panarin is a historically good playoff performer. Don't worry, we won 52 games. We're a good regular season team and I knew our style would fizzle when the going got tough

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

See. That was easy.

 

[Kane One]

Kreider. Just in time lol

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The mainstream media can run the young and inexperienced narrative all they want but the veterans are the ones playing like dog shit.

 

[Kords]

What a concept

 

[DuneGoon84]

Why should I continue to watch this crap. They don't deserve our attention and support. Weak sauce.... done venting it is what it is

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

Oh it is. It’s just not single handed. Couple other players blowing this right now too.

All the vets are blowing. Krieder, Panarin, Fox, Trouba, Thats a shit ton of money just watching and not playing

 

[WojtekWolski86]

It took 15 years for Hank to mentally break down. This team broke 2 goalies in less then a weak.

 

[Atax]

Fox decided he should probably play some hockey finally

 

[PalmCoastRanger]

Sad thing is there's still absolutely nothing stopping us from winning this. We're up against a third string goalie.

Have you met our Star Forwards, Sir? They have only recently discovered this novel concept called, shooting.

 

[Cmox]

Ok lets go!
