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

Remember when Gallant told Chytil to watch how the vets play? Think he might wanna reverse that now.

 

[Oak]

The Devils have had TWO 5 on 5 goals in the last 2 games and some of you are acting like they are dominating. Get a clue.

They have outplayed us since the middle of the 3rd game.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

If they were down 1-0 but generating a ton of chances I’d feel much different. Instead they just had 6 shots on goal that period. And barely had any sustained pressure at all.

 

[Machinehead]

Whoever said that play was a microcosm of Lafreniere's career had it right .He bullied the CHL on talent alone but the lack of hockey IQ shows at this levle.

"Soft" gets thrown around too much but Kakko is f***ing soft. He's not physically soft but he's mentally soft. He refuses to take any initiative on offense and prefers to just dump the puck off so it's not him making a mistake. That's not David Quinn, that's Kaapo Kakko.

Kane is a gamer. The rest of these losers...remains to be seen.

He's probably not used to hearing boos in his own building in the playoffs.

The Devils are having just as much trouble with this third world ice condition as the Rangers.

But somehow John Tortorella screaming at players would miraculously do something about pucks exploding off sticks and guys falling all over the rink.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

and its enough to tie the series up and grab all the momentum and home ice advantage again

Home ice means shit. Can you not see this?

 

[mrmovies779]

Bottom line is was need our best players to be our best players..Mika and bread have to start producing or we are done in 6

 

[Boris Zubov]

I normally go to the Sixpoint brewery but they have no sound. At least at this place the people are cool and there’s sound. Downside is the beer sucks.

Nothing worse than breweries with shitty beer. I mean you have one job.

That was me and my big mouth.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Being tied 2-2 with them having home ice ain't looking good.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

I don't even know if I want to watch the third. It's boring, frustrating, infuriating.

Just do it. It won't be boring, that's for sure.

 

[Machinehead]

That was me and my big mouth.

You're right.

 

[rangersfansince08]

Home ice means shit. Can you not see this?

the rest of the statement is still true. devils didn't have to do much to tie up the series

 

[DialUp]

We aren't going to get one until we are down 2-0 this game. Then we will "wake up" and get the goal and lose 3-1 to an ENG.
Expect game 5 to be better.

 

[The Gloaming]

Well, he still seems to be skating on quick sand... can't knock him though. Our other olayers should be embarrassed

What? He skated through the NZ with more speed than I've seen from anyone else today when he put that backhand through the crease.

 

[Circus86]

This period is the series.

 

[NCRanger]

Home ice means shit. Can you not see this?

Home ice is literally shit.

 

[LeetchisGod]

I believe in giving credit where credit is due. They are playing some really good defense. They were the best road team in the league also. We just need 1.

This has been the least intense series in the entire playoffs. We look like we're playing a regular season game.

 

[Jauffre]

Vally is so pissed, has been since the end of the 1st

Simple hockey isn't as badly impeded by bad ice as tic-tac-toe hockey.

Take whatever stance you want on who is a better coach, but that previous is pretty much a 'known'

 

[Graves97]

I like Sixpoint, they have that one with the tiger on it? Bengal something?

They opened a second location at city point in BK. Decent vibe but the food is not the best

 

[qwertyaas]

I love how blunt Vally is.

 

[bleedblue94]

In 5.5 periods against a playoff rookie we have 1 goal and 51 shots with the vast majority from the perimeter. It's simply not good enough to not get inside and to the net.

I swear I'm not valley, but he literally just said this verbatim.

It's not rocket science and it has nothing to do with the devils. It's the rangers lack of willingness to compete in hard areas right now. Henke and valley both knocking the team about it.

 

[Machinehead]

Trocheck is visibly sucking.

Damn, there's kids watching.
