Series ain't over yet. Make a major statement. Screw close games, blow them out. Everyone gets it together tomorrow.

 

[Greg02]

If we don't close this out game 5 will be on ESPN.

Finish it.

I can’t listen to that foreskin of an announcer, Sean M. Baseball guy. Espn is terrible.

 

[kovazub94]

@bobbop which team you’d rather face in this round over Canes?

 

[mas0764]

Think I found a ticket! Will be in the house for this. Close them out!

 

[BBKers]

Do not go the way of Carlito. No Mercy. Finish them

 

[Gardner McKay]

Why so many players scratched instead of playing in Hartford?

Because putting your depth at risk of getting injured is not a wise move.

 

[DumpnChase12]

Rempe gets hat trick Nah, but Chytil gets first goal

 

[bobbop]

@bobbop which team you’d rather face in this round over Canes?

Boston, Vancouver, Dallas, Edmonton

Probably more relevant are the two teams not on here— Florida and Colorado. That’s probably the path to the Cup.

 

[Row I Goon]

9am Sunday.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I know that we can't win them all.

But can we win just this one please?

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Carolina Hurricane players wish to start their vacations and the Rangers should help them facilitate that.

 

[Richard Banger]

I know that we can't win them all.

But can we win just this one please?

We have literally won them all this post season lol

 

[Kakko Schmakko]

I am not sure we will be able to beat the Panthers they are probably most physical team in NHL and Rangers are one of the softest.

 

[Jim Ramsay]

Boston, Vancouver, Dallas, Edmonton

Florida is the team Ive felt all season I dont feel good about playing

On the other hand. Rangers won Presidents Trophy and are 7-0 so far in the playoffs and I am sure no one feels good about playing us...its hard for us as NYR fans to comprehend that we are a team to be feared, but here we are...and teams should be aware, we got a good mix of players and I think can do it.

Weren't the Canes cup favorites. Now because we're leading the series 3-0 Rangers fans are saying they're the worst team left in the playoffs. Because we can't play well against good teams must be lucky with our draw. BTW, this is my response to kovazub and I agree with you.

Yeah the balls on Kovazub to post this gem after some of the other shit from earlier lol.

I think we can all agree that Carolina was wrongly heavily favored going into this series but at the end of the day it's not like the Rangers are blowing them away. These have all been tight games.

That doesn't make them the worst team remaining. They'd blast the tits off of Boston, Vancouver and probably Edmonton as well.

I'll agree with both of the Central teams and Florida but I've always felt that the East would go through the Panthers. Oilers had the red carpet to come out of the west this year with 2 real easy draws in the first 2 rounds but they're struggling a ton with a team that generates like 15 shots a game.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

1 more win and we're half way there

 

[rangersfansince08]

Would love to step on their throat early. Goals from the kids to end their pain. Chytil and Kakko have a thing goin, best Kakko has looked in a while

would love to see Chytil score one (or three)

 

[Killem Dafoe]

We have literally won them all this post season lol

I'm trying not to be greedy.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Trocheck and Zibby each with 12 points, Lafreniere and Panarin both with 9.

You nailed this. It's a perspective shift. I keep saying it but this team has that feel. That's maybe me trusting this group too much, but I sense this team can do it.

On the logical side, they are extremely deep, are well coached, and everybody has bought in. Also the coaching has been amazing. Lavi isn't Gallant that's for sure. There are a lot of reasons to believe in this team.

[Edit] Not to speak blasphemy, but Artemi giving a speech and then going out there and scoring one of the most ridiculous deflections ever, and in OT is like Messier in '94. Also, who knew Panarin had that in him. But talk about buying in. 100 points nothing, try 120.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Would like to see Kakko and Chytil generate some high danger stuff. We know with Wennberg they’ll possess the puck and be tight in all zones, but would like to see a little more action to the net and I think we’ll see that even with it being Chytils second game back

Good comments about Florida. They will be a very tough out. I think their forward depth is outstanding and their coaching is excellent. I don’t feel the same way about their backend. That’s the part of their team the Rangers can exploit and win.

Paging Matt Rempe.
