GDT: ECSF #3 - 5/21/13 | Boston Bruins @ New York Rangers | 7:30 PM - NBC SPORTS, TSN

[5 4 Fighting]

I feel a big offensive explosion coming...in Claude Julien's pants after the Bruins score 5 goals in the 1st period.


On the real though, lets do this baby! 4-2 Rangers

 

[The Gloaming]

Our favorite idiots better win today!

Lose this and don't bother showing up for game 4.

 

[shoothepuck]

If I were Torts, I would scratch Richards and put Newbury in. Richards looks like he has cerebral palsy out there. At least Newbury would add some grit and checking ability.

This, plus just win.

Love this team, love these guys……… LGR

All the little girl naysayers should move on to another team………

Darren Dreger reported on TSN radio that the Rangers could fire John Tortorella if the Rangers don't advance against the Boston Bruins.

I really want John boy gone. It' a win-win either way tonight.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Im still pissed off about not taking at least 1 in Boston. Couldve won either imo.

Could be talking about going up 2-1 tonight, instead its about survival.

So annoying. They need to erase that feeling by running away with it tonight.

You're a fantastic Ranger fan.

 

[Vidic15*]

You're a realistic Ranger fan.

Changed it for you.

 

[nyahay bus]

the result will be good, the process will be excruciating. 2-1, Hank with 40 or more stops.

Wow. You call yourself a fan of this team?

 

[Vidic15*]

Wow. You call yourself a fan of this team?

Why? Because I don't show blind faith in a team that has so many flaws?

I would love to get rid of Torts, but honestly, I don't know of any viable replacements...

 

[FLNYR]

I heard another stat last night that no team has come back from 0-2 in the first 2 rounds of SCPO's so lets be the first please LGR!!!

 

[Ekani]

Don't have anything clever to say. Just hope the team can find a way to win tonight.

Lets go Rangers!

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Every game from here on out in this series is a must win.

Let's ****ing go Rangers!

We're doomed.

You seem to have a lot of blind faith in whoever would be Torts replacement.

It's not blind faith that you'd rather have your team win and advance to the Conference Finals than wanting them to lose just to fire the coach. Wanting your team to win....that's what being a fan is.

I think 'silver lining' is a more appropriate term than win-win. It sucks if we lose, the ultimate goal is always to win, regardless of flaws. But if we do lose, at least we can take solace in the fact that Torts may be gone. That's not a win. It's a softening of the blow.

Anyways, it's all semantics. We're all Rangers fans and ultimately want our team to win Lord Stanleys.

 

[NYR Viper]

Guys, we have a Torts thread. Take that conversation there if you want to continue it

 

[Gardner McKay]

We're doomed.

No team has ever come back from a 3 goal deficit in the 3rd period of a game 7. So why aren't we playing the Maple Leafs?

All these historic facts make me feel awfully pessimistic.....

 

[FLNYR]

C'mon dude really? Most of your posts seem pessimistic most of the time

 

[haohmaru]

All these historic facts make me feel awfully pessimistic.....

And the sky is blue, rain is wet, and Obama is president. Nothing to see here.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

We have to start today ... Seidenberg is still out. Damn, imagine if he was in, we'd be having an even harder time getting anything going ...

Not sure if I can afford to watch this one ... maybe I'm sitting out ... game will most probably start at 2 AM since NBC is on commercial crack kokain ...

 

[NYSportsfan87]

How many times do they praise Krug tonight? I'm guessing 4-5.
