GDT: ECQF - Game 4 - New York Rangers vs New Jersey Devils - 7pm EST - MSG, ESPN (NYR Lead 2-1)

[PlamsUnlimited]

Powerless play

 

[rangersfansince08]

this is literally their way back into this game

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Bit of a sell job, but I'll take it.

 

[turcotte8]

PP, put Tank on, sit Bread.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

frustrated with the direction of the series.

the power play needs to wake up immediately.

 

[Fitzy]

Welp, looking at you Kane, Zibby, Panarin.

This is step up time.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Lot of standing still and looking for stretch passes. Defense need to SKATE and push the pace

The defense can't skate, that's the problem.

They basically need to score on every PP because I don't see them generating any offense 5v5.

 

[Machinehead]

This is where the series is decided. The Devils were a better 5v5 team the whole year.

 

[Circus86]

Rangers managed to get a 2-0 lead just to come back to msg and kill the feeling of the home crowd in the first ten minutes in both games. Quite an achievement.

 

[Nyr88nyg]

Half our team look like they’re trying out to be the next guy on a beer ad…..

They’re skating like it’s an October game

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Schmid is giving up juicy rebounds in every shot but not one Rangers within 15 feet of the net, ever. What a joke.

Kakko looked like a took a leisurely stroll to the puck when it was laying in the crease right before the Hughes goal.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Not gonna pretend we're gonna score on this PP.

 

[RangersFan]

Can they test this guy already? Shoot for 2nd chances.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Good job selling it Vinny. Best thing you've done all series.

Now we need to tie the game.

 

[Richard Banger]

Let’s see if they learned from game 3

 

[irishlaxburger2]

frustrated with the direction of the series.

the power play needs to wake up immediately.

Yep, Devils are dictating tempo and that’s bad news for us 5v5

 

[nevesis]

Start to tilt the momentum. Need to score here. Maybe that will wake these f***ing corpses up out of the grave.

 

[DialUp]

Correct. Was wondering if anyone was going to bring up the fact that as the puck is rattling around the crease Hughes, a center, has completely abdicated his defensive position.

lol he scored a goal. there are no moral victories here! Only thing that matters is the pucks going into the back of the net and the W. That could be the game winner for all we know.

This PP coming up is huge.

 

[The Gloaming]

Why was Panarin so good in the playoffs with Columbus but sucks with us?

Torts won't let anyone get away with cross ice giveaway bullshit. They all have to go to the hard areas with Torts.

Let's get this PP going

 

[Kane One]

If we can't assert ourselves on home ice, we won't win shit even if we do end up eliminating the Devils.

I never expected you to join the dark side

Have faith my friend. If you can’t, drink more alcohol

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Absolutely need to make them pay here. We don't win this series without a good power play.

 

[Rempe73]

The overrated millionaires playing other millionaires who had a better regular season?
It's not really an argument that makes sense

Like everyone who gets paid to do a certain job, I want effort. I understand maximal effort every night isn’t realistic, but give me some.

 

[CLW]

This is hard to watch

We look exactly the same we have since the trade deadline playing at home.

We still don't have a functional transition game. It's game 80-something of the season. We are better away where we can counterattack, just like the Devils are. There's a reason we are struggling against the Devils at home, whatever the naysayers say.

 

[RangersFan]

Where is the physicality? They look timid.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

An advantage of having to watch the game muted, is not hearing Kaplan's coach interviews.
