how is this not trolling at this point

Trying to figure out if people are doing reverse jinx, or actually upset over a period that was mostly fine.

Both teams are good, both had good chances.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Is thie the first scoreless first period in this series?

Yes.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Dough ready to bake in the morning. Breadman goal coming up.

Would be great if he realizes the game started.

 

[duhmetreE]

Thought the first 10 was decent... then it got sloppy and out of sorts. Looked almost forced

Hopefully Quickie steps up in the locker room again and tells them to trust and play within the system.

2nd period of game 1 and OT1 in game 2.

Is everyone just overreacting or are all the models are wrong? naturalstattrick had us a xGF 1.08-.73 in our favor

Carolina had way too much room, sure it didn’t lead to much but asking for trouble.

 

[Ranger Wolf]

That was as ass a period as they've had in the playoffs.

OTOH, if the tables were flipped we'd all be saying about how we'd regret not converting on the chances that Carolina had in that period.

Um Game 4 Period 1?

 

[INWOODBLUE]

Would be great if he realizes the game started.

He's a pro. He knows what he is doing. Canes are defending him very well.

All models are wrong; some are useful.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Um Game 4 Period 1?

I didn't watch it.

So I should rephrase, thats as ass a period as I have watched them play this playoff year.

We gave up too many rushes in the minutes I saw but Carolina does dick all with rush chances.

I don't understand why anyone expressing an opinion you don't like trolling. I'm not looking to get a rise out of anyone. People think that I'm trying to piss them off on purpose are way off base. They're not playing with any desperation. I'm not happy in such an important game. Where's the trolling? Just not liking an opinion isn't trolling, doesn't mean I'm purposely trying to get a rise out of you.

Rempe will probably get one more shift.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

If we swept, I hope Rod and the Canes would part ways. Seep the legs! No mercy! End this Canes era.

 

[mrmovies779]

I expect a big 2nd period from the team.Canes will be their usual extra aggressive and we will make them pay in transition

Overreacting mostly. Couple bad plays for us, couple really good plays by us too.

 

[Filip Chytil]

Box!

 

[INWOODBLUE]

Rempe will probably get one more shift.

When we are up 4-0 in the 3rd

Overreacting mostly. Couple bad plays for us, couple really good plays by us too.

yea I mean according to that model that's probably one of the better periods we've had in against CAR

 

[Matt Rentfree]

The menu is not the meal.

 

[DialUp]

Rangers leaving players wide open, and Carolina doing NOTHING with it is why our xGF is probably higher.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

He's a pro. He knows what he is doing. Canes are defending him very well.

So that’s the excuse we are going with this game?

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Can we stop singing in prescription drug commercials? Especially when one of the side effects is a rotting taint.

 

[jerseyjinx94]

I think that’s a “fine” period Rangers suck in the 1st to get out 0-0 and I expect them to turn it up now. Neither team won that period eye test wise both had break downs and chances

 

[duhmetreE]

Wennberg flubbing a wide open slot chance is funny as it's expected... he has all the tools to be a good player but his finishing is atrocious.

Chytil needs to be slotted in there. That line should produce
