Use the NHL app and listen to Sam and Dave.

I was trying to listen on the MSG radio site, but I couldn't get it synced up.

 

[Machinehead]

Trouba is on the powerplay when there's like 10 seconds left and they want to be ready to transition into defending.

Why they continue to associate Trouba with defending is another story.

 

[17futurecap]

Fox had a great period, the Canes basically never had the puck when he was out there, keep playing him.

 

[Chytilmania]

If the series was 2-1 I would worry. Still feeling good about both this game and the series.

 

[Crease]

Worst period of the playoffs for this team by a considerable margin and led down the path of destruction by their captain.

We got run off the ice there.

What worries me are the batshit crazy reactions I have seen from some people in here. I don't know what everyone's lives or personal situations are like, but most of you are adults. In the real world, sometimes you experience the equivalent of giving up three goals in a period on the road, and you don't throw a bitch fit and give up on life. You put your man pants on, and you face another day.

A lot of you need to spend the intermission looking in a mirror.

Rangers fans discovering that playoff hockey is indeed not all sunshine and lollipops.

 

[Bob Richards]

1 period and now were talking about losing streaks. Good grief lol.

for real

can we actually lose a single game before we've decided that someone has put a dagger in us for the playoffs.

 

[KennyWu]

Bad period but some good shifts. Get it together fellas we got this

 

[turcotte8]

Wheres the fire? The chippy play? Wake the f*** up kids!

They scratched the guy who does that

 

[MysticLeviathan]

The Rangers have been very good at that this season.

maybe it’s just anecdotal but I feel like we’re always slow out of the gate and we need a pp or something to get our mojo back. we get a pp and we look like absolute dogshit.

 

[mrmovies779]

Had a nice little stretch after they made it 2-0 but didn't make them pay as much as they should have. Defensive structure was nonexistent.

Its hard to have structure when you have 2 awful giveaways that led directly to goals

 

[NYRangers16]

Whatever. Regroup during the intermission and take it to the next level in the 2nd.

They always seem to adjust their level depending on the competition. So I expect them to start battling back.

 

[Captain Lindy]

I was trying to listen on the MSG radio site, but I couldn't get it synced up.

I have the same problem but it's better than listening to the bozos.

 

[Doctyl]

Trouba is on the powerplay when there's like 10 seconds left and they want to be ready to transition into defending.

Why they continue to associate Trouba with defending is another story.

Something about a lot of blocked shots

 

[GAGLine]

Hopefully they will extract their heads from their asses in the intermission and get back in the game.

 

[WojtekWolski86]

Our worst players were our worst players. This time Canes finished. We had a few opportunities that could have tied. Down 2 but as long as 8 and 56 aren't out there we are OK.

We needed the PP to bail us out. Get one back in the 2nd and the pressure will be on the canes in the 3rd.

 

[3rd Guy High]

Trouba and Gustvasson should see 5 minutes for the remainder of the game after that disgusting display of defense.

Gustvasson a hope play to goodrow om the first one.

Trouba a clear giveaway on the second one with the puck on his stick.

Trouba covering no one on the last goal. Guy isnt going to score from the goal line ffs

 

[Machinehead]

Something about a lot of blocked shots

I would be less mad at him if he at least attempted to do that.

Literally stood there on two goals.

 

[Do you want ants]

Got them right where we want them. False hope is high.

 

[Tob]

We were lucky to win back to back OTs. Would be 2-2 otherwise.

 

[Captain Monglobster]

Rangers need to start winning battles. They are too soft out there. Canes backs are against the wall they are playing for their lives.

 

[LOFIN]

 

[mrmovies779]

Trouba and Gus -3...next step in sheltering them is the press box.Both are awful in their own zone

 

[MysticLeviathan]

Back in ‘94, they took a quick 1-0 lead in Game 4 on a Saturday night at the Capital Center.

Washington then dominated the game.

and we came back to within 1 then gave up the 3rd. I really liked how we came back to score one, but giving up the 3rd sets us all the way back.

it’s not over but the biggest issue imo isn’t scoring but keeping carolina away.

 

[AirGut]

If the series was 2-1 I would worry. Still feeling good about both this game and the series.

1 f***ing goal right now, that's all it takes.

This would never happen if you told your wife to stay in. I knew you being home alone was bad news.

You got greedy, Martin.
