GDT: ECQF Game 5 - New York Rangers vs Pittsburgh Penguins - 7pm EST - MSG, ESPN - Series (Pit 3-1)

[SA16]

I really really hope Shesterkin is playing hurt. Because this is ridiculous hockey from him.

I hope he's not playing hurt because if he is this is two consecutive games of an extremely poor coaching decision to start him after seeing him play the last games.

 

[SoundAndFury]

Again this is bs. Do all hockey games in the KHL have no meaning? How about the Olympics?

He hasn't played a single game in the Olympics.

 

[Filip Chytil]

Kaplan says it was a hit from Braun that injured Crosby

 

[Lays]

3 goals, 5 goals, 4 goals, 2 goals and 3 goals going into the third. In the Lundqvist era we're probably on the verge of winning in 5.

Miss those Hank era teams with Cally, Dubinsky, Girardi, Staal, McDonagh, Stepan, Brassard…

The talent was never there to go all the way but God they were so easy to cheer for. I consistently tell myself I hate this current team

 

[Unpredictable1]

Trouba knocked Crosby on his ass earlier and they showed him on the bench with his head down.Maybe he's in concussion protocol

It was glorious.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Laf and Kakko have to play in the top six next season. Enough of the bullshit. If it moves Kreider down to the third line, so be it. He can still be on the first powerplay.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

At least we're not Florida who looks like they might be one and done in a Presidents' Trophy winning season against a worse team.

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Kaplan says it was a hit from Braun that injured Crosby

Better than anything Nemeth will ever do for this franchise.

 

[Captain Monglobster]

LaFreniere captain, Kakko and Miller get the A's and no one else matters.

This is the way.

From your lips to Sathers ears.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Perhaps you should put a call in to the Rangers and let them know that you could coach better than Gallant?

But after 3 decades of experience I know I cant so why would I do that?

 

[Kane One]

He hasn't played a single game in the Olympics.

What international tournament am I mixing it up with?

 

[NCRanger]

G

Guntzel may look like scrub ass goober but he’s a 2 time 40 goal scorer. Very good player.

On any other team he’s lucky to score 15. He’s a plug.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Hank won only 2 series in his first 5 playoff appearances. 35 games and he only won 15. He only has a .920% or higher in one of those playoff runs. He wasn’t the playoff elimination game god from day 1.

I'm talking prime 12-15 Hank.

 

[Bluto]

Keep throwing shit if we keep scoring three goals like that. Take yoir good lady somewhere even nicer!!

Don't worry, friend. She's been dealing with this for a loooooooooong time. She knows she's gonna get a nice piece of jewlery and a fancy dinner at the end of the playoffs.

retire braun's jersey

 

[mas0764]

We don’t even need better players. Star talent is higher than most of the league. We need our players to play better.

We need the defensemen to continue to mature and we need two young centers.

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

But after 3 decades of experience I know I cant so why would I do that?

Because it's the same absurd thing you said to me after I mentioned some of his poor coaching decisions. Similar to what you just did.

 

[Doctyl]

I'm talking prime 12-15 Hank.

Oh okay then. I want prime hasek. I don’t get your point.

 

[RangerLifer]

I really really hope Shesterkin is playing hurt. Because this is ridiculous hockey from him.

In all fairness to Igor, though, that tying goal was on Mika.

 

[Row I Goon]

On draft day in this forum I told everyone igor isn’t a lock …

I was swarmed upon

I STAND BY MY STATEMENT

With respect Igor got us here, champ. He's a Vezina finalist. Your argument is invalid. He may not be a great playoff goalie YET but it appears you're putting the entire series result on him.

 

[CommaSynapse]

Laf and Kakko have to play in the top six next season. Enough of the bullshit. If it moves Kreider down to the third line, so be it. He can still be on the first powerplay.

Kid line for first line.

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

HAHAHAHAHAHA. You are all talking about Laf being captain? With GG as coach? I just hope he gets 15 minutes in a game once next year and you are all here talking captain.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

Do we trade Kreider in the off-season?

I'd trade Mika, but his contract is just kicking in.

 

[Rempe73]

Ok I can finally watch some of these playoffs. Couldn’t earlier due to some personal reasons but man. How have Kakko, Lafreniere, and Miller looked this series? I heard the core somewhat disappointed thus far, so I hope those 3 guys are at least looking good.

And Igor man, is he just a choker or what?

 

[GlasgowNewYorkRanger]

Don't worry, friend. She's been dealing with this for a loooooooooong time. She knows she's gonna get a nice piece of jewlery and a fancy dinner at the end of the playoffs.

Nice, let's hope the bling and dinner are delayed a little!!
