ECSF: Game 1 - New York Rangers vs Carolina Hurricanes, 4pm ET, ESPN

[luiginb]

If Carolina can't stay out of the box this will be a short series.

 

[Lua]

I have been watching hockey a long time. That's a first for me. I have never seen a guy wide open right in front of the net try to do a drop pass.

Wow.

don't watch many Rangers games I gather

 

[Captain Lindy]

Canes are such a different team at home. I could see this going home-home-home-home to start

Rangers are better on the road.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

3 goals on 7 shots.

 

[Despote]

Never seen a pretender quite like the modern Carolina Hurricanes

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

It’s tough putting a belt to Carolina’s ass but someone has to do it

 

[BMOK33]

2 games Sunday will be all over before 8pm pst huh

Way to go NHL.

Even if there are 4 Sunday games they typically do not start the W Coast ones after 930 ET. That said I think in the US many people are gonna work from home or take off tomorrow since today is one of the bigger drinking days of the year here

Wow.

Goodrow did it in the cap series after oshie asked for it nicely while chasing him

 

[The Crypto Guy]

There’s a difference between a screen and a penalty.

Yup, and that wasnt a penalty, i’m sure even you can see when a player is pushed in or not.

 

[SnS]

If Carolina could stay out of the box. They would be a lot better off.

 

[Profet]

Necas looked scared asf seeing Rempe coming. Just feel down to avoid the hit.

That's the Rempe effect.

 

[GG96]

Trouba comes in after the whistle for a boarding and we're the dirty team?

Except it was at the whistle. Unless you want him to have reflexes like the Flash

 

[kwichang]

Well that was a period of hockey.

Gotta love the second round!! Real playoffs have begun

 

[BoHorvat 53]

NYR may take this in 5 if Carolina doesn't adjust

The adjustment is to stop taking dumb penalties, this is going to be a series

 

[Profet]

I have been watching hockey a long time. That's a first for me. I have never seen a guy wide open right in front of the net try to do a drop pass.

Wow.

You haven't watched the Rangers... If they could pass it into the net, they would.

 

[SnS]

Yup, and that wasnt a penalty, i’m sure even you can see when a player is pushed in or not.

Wasn’t pushed to my eyes. Rempe just couldn’t hold himself out of the crease.

 

[Captain Lindy]

If Carolina could stay out of the box. They would be a lot better off.

They're playing a dirty, chippy game and it woke up the Rangers.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Rangers are to Canes what Bruins are to Leafs…

 

[SnS]

They're playing a dirty, chippy game and it woke up the Rangers.

And Trouba coming in late on an already boarded Jarvis, wasn’t dirty?

Okay.

 

[Leonardo87]

Mika with a great 1st period even with that bad decision late in the period. Had the hat trick on his stick.

 

[Rempe73]

I like this GDT. I am also glad that it starts at 4:00 p.m. today. Gives me something to do in the afternoon. I might practice my parking between getting home from church and the start of this game.

Haha I feel you. For me, mass finished at 1:00 and then game at 4:00

 

[Captain Lindy]

And Trouba coming in late on an already boarded Jarvis, wasn’t dirty?

Okay.

Carolina winning dirty plays 20-1

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Carolina winning dirty plays 20-1

You can pretend this is true all you want but it doesn’t make it so

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

They're playing a dirty, chippy game and it woke up the Rangers.

Keep posting garbage. Clean hit on Cuylle was called a penalty.

 

[Unsustainable]

Except it was at the whistle. Unless you want him to have reflexes like the Flash

Still a late and high dangerous hit, typical of Trouba
