TBS rooting HARD for the rags.

For the last 10 years there have really only been 7 teams in the NHL if you look at national exposure in the US.

Why quit now?

 

[SJinNewJersey]

Well get ready for game 2 I guess

Still two periods plus, not over by any means.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Absolute disaster of a first 10 minutes

 

[MartyOwns]

soooo fellas they’re going to keep blocking those point shots

 

[Richer's Ghost]

I see we’ve gone with the LA Kings script this game. Go down 2 quickly and dig out

 

[Eggtimer]

Everyone said it would be special teams amd goaltendimg that makes the difference . 100% true so far

 

[JrFischer54]

Rangers blocking every shot

 

[13BearerOfHope]

Fire lindy!

 

[FinnishDevil]

3rd line the only line with some o-zone time so far.

 

[JimEIV]

No shots, no quick transition, no possession....

 

[DevilDog]

1 SOG in over 12 min with 2 PPs. Just get out of this period.

 

[mdj12784]

Audible LGR chant. Perfect!

 

[Cheddabombs]

Is Torts wearing a Gallant disguise out there or something? Get a shot through

 

[Jersey Fresh]

They need one before the end of the period.

 

[Bleedred]

Get Lindy fired in the intermission. Guys were nowhere near prepared.

I'm not saying to fire him, but definitely not prepared and power play killed all momentum.

 

[palek1019]

If there's one thing to blame on the coaches it's the 1st periods have been awful for the better part of the season

That was one worry going into this playoffs

And the power play killed any momentum

The PP is my biggest worry. They'll settle down once the jitters are out. But if anything's gonna sink them, it's the PP. It's a momentum killer.

 

[BahlDeep]

We need to get shots through

 

[bossram]

For a fast team, they look pretty unable to play at the playoff pace right now.

 

[theoptimist]

Miles Wood is supposed to be a veteran

 

[Eggtimer]

Rangers blocking every shot

Keep ripping it . Eventually they won’t have any he to block shots.

 

[Cheddabombs]

They need one before the end of the period.

Will settle for one more shot before the period ends at this point

 

[NJDevils17]

Stop with the point shots. Jeez.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

Two way street bud

There’s a limit

 

[swiiscompos]

Everyone said it would be special teams amd goaltendimg that makes the difference . 100% true so far

Well, we also only have two shots on goal...

 

[Emperoreddy]

Going to be a blue invasion Thursday if this continues.

We look awfuk
