Go in there and snuff them out in calculated fashion. Big game.

That what a pejorative slur looks like

30%?

Probably 15/85, i’m sure a bunch of devils fans sold their tickets after the first 2 blowouts.

“Experience didn’t give them a 2-0 lead,” (Jack) Hughes said. “This has nothing to do with experience. This is them playing better than us. They’ve been playing some very good hockey and we haven’t been playing very well. It comes down we’ve got to pick our game up and play better.”

For anyone who thinks experience doesn't matter, take a look at what Tampa did to us in the Conference Final last season.

A team needs to be good, yes, but the experience of dealing with what happens when things don't go your way and how to react to it is a big advantage not just in sports but in life.

Quite a reminder that I'm getting older when a game not starting until 9:30pm makes me curse out loud.

Boy the ads on mobile are out of hand. I'm getting a seizure. LGR!!

As I stated in the first PGT on this series.....as Kreider goes....so go the Rangers . Guess I was kind of right , although Fox contribution has not hurt us either . Pedal to the medal and finish these guys . Stay out of the penalty box because sooner or later their PP might catch fire . GO Rangers GO !!!

One hour ahead wasn't good enough. Had to tack on an extra 30 minutes. Who does that with time zones?

The tile cleaner ad has the same seafoam color tile I have in my bathroom. It's a sign.

Devils are turning to Akira Schmid tonight from what I’ve been told. Vanicek was informed of the move yesterday. Hopefully the Rangers get to Schmid early and rattle him.

Thought vanecek was fine. Would be a mistake to pull him I think.

I agree with this. Vanecek is not the reason the Devils are in the hole 0-2.

Yeah I didn't think he was too bad last game.

Trouba's hair is actually pretty impressive

If the Devils try to overcommit to Kreider on the PP, I have to think Zibanejad is gonna have a party tonight.

Or Panarin or Kane or Fox

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Not sure what to expect in this one tonight.

I think the Devils could try to do too much but I could also see them get it together. They’ve had good games at the Garden.

Either way the Rangers need to stay the course, if they are up or down in this one, just continue to execute and stick to the game plan.

If they can get a win here it will really knock the spirit out of the Devils. Just keep doing the same things that got you to 2-0.

LGR!

12 hours to go still, damn. Hopefully I'm not passed out by then, beer drinking has been going on for hours already.

Don't give 'em an inch.

10 hours and 30 min of more beer, are you still alive?

One hour ahead wasn't good enough. Had to tack on an extra 30 minutes. Who does that with time zones?

A dominion/province with a long history of reinforced mistrust of governments haha.

We never joined Canada until 1949, so the time zone was originally set when we were still a British dominion.

View from the other side of the Hudson:

Didn’t watch but me guess. ‘We just need to play our game’. ‘They have gotten hot goaltending’. ‘We haven’t had luck on our side’. ‘Some tough calls against us’.
Basically ‘it’s us, not them’.

 

[egelband]

Standby for more after-the-whistle “toughness” from NJ.

did everyone catch kakko manhandling hamilton and pushing his face into the net after hamilton crossed checked him? this team isnt gonna go out and bully people on their own as part of a big strat but they sure as shit do not allow teams to physically bully them.

Yes. Been taking it easy.

Wish it would start already.

 

[rangersfansince08]

starts 8:30 right?

 

[bl02]

That is what I thought but now as I check ticketmaster/nhl.com they say 8pm.

I mean the actual puck drop is 8:30? I think they said that on the game 2 broadcast or something

 

[Crease]

Guessing puck drop will be closer to 8:20.
