GDT: ECQF - Game 5 - New York Rangers @ New Jersey Devils , 7:30 EST, MSG, ESPN2

Blowing 2 2-0 leads is definitely enough to get a coach fired. Didn’t hate gallant but you just can’t do that.

I do. he doesn’t adjust, he doesn’t hold vets accountable. our team is a lot better than we’re showing, and it’s the coach’s job to get the most out of each player, which gallant has failed mightily in doing.

My Dad after game 2: "Dude, the Rangers!! Let's gooo!!"

Me: "Yeah, they are playing great, but they ARE the Rangers and they love to stomp on our hearts soooo."

 

[gabevh3]

"I thought we played well. We deserved to win"

The game is still going on...

 

[Boris Zubov]

He's stunk after game 2.

He's stunk since the All Star break, but everyone wanted to excuse it away because his BFF was hurt in Washington.

Igor shouting at the bench.

 

[Tom Potty]

Igor is pissed

 

[haohmaru]

We could have

Gretzky Gretzky Gretzky
Gretzky Gretzky Gretzky
Gretzky Gretzky Gretzky
Gretzky Gretzky Gretzky

in a playoff lineup and still only score one goal a game.

 

[Cmox]

Well, nice save

 

[Richard Banger]

One of the best offensive in years they put it on display in game 1&2 and now they look like the worst offensive team in the league. Changes will 100% be made.

 

[qwertyaas]

Rangers are cooked. They are 2 seconds too slow on every decision.

This isn't effort anymore. They just look defeated. Can't take a pass. Shots are off. Indecisive. Forcing plays.

And numbnut GG can't call a timeout to slow this down.

 

[Row I Goon]

Im just tripping on LSD right guys?

No. Unfortunately it's real.

This is a serious reality check and a reminder that your team has to built for play-offs as well as the regular season. Our mental strength got us the first 2 wins in this series but the Devils are set-up differently. These dickheads are either gonna go home tonight and find something or they're teeing off early Sunday because the season will be over.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

he refuses to shoot is the problem. he’s always trying to force a pass. he needs to rid himself of that mindset

Seems like that is a practice etched into these guys by the brainless staff. Or, seemingly brainless

[ZiGOODejad]

Losing like this when we have all this playoff experience is complete bullshit. Panarin is a choke artist in the playoffs.

 

[duhmetreE]

Simply refuses to be a part of the options by being a shot threat

then you have Panarin and Kane being the same player...

coaching staff is too dumb to understand

 

[bouds]

Igor pulling a Henrik. Rip into them kid.

 

[Circus86]

Time to fire up the back hockey team thread

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

We’re never going to hear the end of this.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

At least Meier isn't scoring.

 

[Tom Potty]

Can Trouba throw a helmet again???

 

[Harbour Dog]

Shades of Hank. Love it, but I wish it wasn't necessary.

 

[carlsection404]

gallant needs to go his team quit on him

 

[EdJovanovski]

Igor giving it to the bench
Literally Hank reincarnated, and looks like his team in front of him will give him the same fait

 

[NYR MacTruck]

I cant watch another 60 minutes of dumping the puck to no one

 

[RangersFan]

Game 3, how many chances did they pass up early on to make an extra pass? Only for Timo to pull that shit and the Devils go up on the PP. The loser is deep set in this franchise for some reason.
