No, please stop

 

[LeetchisGod]

I think they'll find a way to win this game and get caved in again in Pitt. Nemeth has been utter dogshit and still keeps his spot in the lineup.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I've mostly given up hope of winning this series but would love a good effort here to not have my lasting memory of this series as getting trounced in the first round.

 

[Sisu4ever]

I might regret watching it, but if Rangers win, I would regret much more not watching it.
So I better watch, and hope for a miracle.

 

[RangersFan1994]

The way we have been playing is not something you get rid of overnight. We would need a miracle to play well tonight. I just hope they show like they care and fans can tell when they show they don‘t. Please play with passion grit and effort.

Don’t know why but it feels like we got eliminated Monday night.

 

[Captain Monglobster]

Gallant is gonna make them do suicides during TV timeouts.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

I've come to terms that it all might be over after tonight's game, and you know what I'm ok with that. I forgot how stressful playoff games are after not being in them for so many years. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the playoffs as a neutral observer.

 

[ajdj10]

Has there actually been another team that has lost a series to a backup's backup before?

 

[Rangerboy030]

One game at a time.

We've come back from 3-1 down against the Penguins before, we can do it again. It's not over until it's over.

 

[Machinehead]

Stop your crying

Readi bois only

 

[Jayan]

Series on the line, nothing to hold back on.. If the team wants it, they have to show it. That being said ive got a tee time booked tomorrow morning.

LGR.

Who is that beautiful young lady?

 

[Row I Goon]

It’s already been a staggering improvement on last season. Whatever happens in game 5 I’m putting the season in the “+” column.

 

[RangerBoy]

Just win the game tonight.

 

[duhmetreE]

We'll win

 

[rangers1314]

Show some god damn pride

 

[RangersFan1994]

Kreider was on that 2014 team that beat the Penguins 3 straight includinggame 7 after trailing 3-1 against Penguins. He really should tell the team it can be done. Give some inspiration speech. Let Hank give a speech to Igor before the game. Frustrate the Penguins is how you beat them. Rangers need to get back to that. Strome has it at times. Rooney has in the past. Kreider can when he wants to play angry. Vartano has that in him. Trouba needs to agitate Crosby. It still works.

 

[DumpnChase12]

Why is Nemeth still playing ?? Having Tanner Glass flashbacks, ugh.....

 

[Daves a mess]

Gallant is gonna make them do suicides during TV timeouts.

Again.

Again.

Again.

Again.

Again.

 

[Jackson Ranger]

Play with pride and play F'IN DEFENSE!!! Is that too much to ask for during the Stanley Cup playoffs??

 

[RGY]

Just win the game tonight.

Amen

 

[McRanger92]

I will once again be at the Garden because I've chosen to live and die at my post. Have some pride and get win boys. LGR
