I don’t know if the average person on this board saw the way the Devils played in the early 2000s or remembers how they played. That’s not to excuse the Rangers at all, but there was one Game 7 vs Toronto where the Devils limited the Leafs to SIX shots on goal for the ENTIRE game. When the Devils played that garbage and played it to perfection, they could have shut down Gretzky’s Oilers.

This Devils team is approaching that level, PLUS any turnover or deflected puck turns into an immediate danger because of the speed.

Honestly don’t believe this is a lack of effort from the Rangers. Looks more like they’re a cat with bags tied to their paws. Mentally defeated, because they have no idea what to do.

I don't know if I'd say panarin is playing well this game. I will say it looks he's putting in effort. On some shifts.
 
Wow I am no Kreider apologist but I completely disagree here. Kreider can shoot, he can't pass or stick handle or finesse for the life of him, but he can shoot and he can deflect. And he does those two SO well that it makes him the last player to wear 20 for us.
I remember years of Kreider flying into the O zone with his speed, taking a shot and missing the net. He was almost as bad as no hands Hagelin. Kreider cant score on the rush.

He has found magic though in front of the net.
 
Hope that PP goal was a big momentum changer. Definitely need other guys to step up. Can’t have just CK bring the only guy scoring goals
 
If Kreider played to his full potential I would agree with you. Kreider has found a nitch in front of the net but think about the years before that. Guy cant shoot the puck for shit. He is a fast big body but plays very soft. If not for the tip game he doesnt really do much.

Tom Wilson is a superior player overall.
Krieder used to destroy people until the refs started calling him for even breathing on someone.
