GDT: ECSF - Game 6 - New York Rangers vs Carolina Hurricanes , 8pm EST, ESPN - Series (CAR 3-2)

Jesus. Can we try to take the body in front of our own net??? No matter how many times we out-man them, they still make the play against our lazy stick-checking. Only one of our guys needs to bury the guy or at least move him out of scoring position.

 

[will1066]

We're owed some calls in the 3rd. But I ain't counting on them.

Christopher Kreider, wake the f*** up

 

[hackeyman]

We need an Igor goal tonight
Imagine 1 goal, 2 assists & a penalty lol

First goalie to record a Gordie Howe Hat trick. Hey Jovo don't look it up quick answer .....How many did Gordie Howe have?

 

[SchneidersPretzels]

Ok all these scrums in front of NYR net got me thinking....
Is there any rule in hockey that forbids the players to form a wall on their knees in front of the goal? With a 2-3 players plus the goalie we could cover the entire net
Like similar to how they make a wall in soccer penalty kicks.
Could be used in the last couple minutes of a tight game where we have the lead

 

[17futurecap]

20 minutes, score early, finish it

 

[NYRFANMANI]

How many goalies pick up 2 assists, a hit and penalty in 1 game

Only the greatest. We need a fight eventually but I fear Igor fighting style will be that of Semin.

 

[Srs105]

Maybe if you got your head out your ass, you would've seen we were hemmed in, guys going on 3 minutes of time out there and can't change. Our goalie makes a command decision and rather we trade a PK for fresh bodies, and it f***ing worked. Blatant, smart penalty.

Wonder if Igor did that on purpose. Team was gassed and Carolina's PP is doodie. Incredibly risky but that shift was looking like it was gonna end in a goal or penalty anyway.

Yes he did it on purpose. Fresh PK unit against a Canes Pp> any ranger squad that has been pinned in their zone for 3 minutes 5 v 5

 

[Fitzy]

As they used to say...

Hockey's different here

 

[Circus86]

Goodrow is a PK machine

 

[2Leetch_94]

Favorite part of the broadcast was when they showed Shesterkin with more points this series than Kreider.

 

[SRHRangers]

Chellios is more hammered than Brophy in the opening scene in Slapshot.

He's going to piss himself.

 

[ReddestRum]

Why can't they change? We just decided to play 2 mins of 4 on 5 instead of just doing it for the several seconds each time while they cycles through a change

We had the long change and had one clear that was sent right back into the zone!!

 

[CasusBelli]

Need an empty netter

Maybe we can get him to fight Tony too. Igor-Howe Hat Trick.

Billy Smith?

A command decision equals committing a penalty 2 feet from a ref?

Next, he'll hold a trial and find out who's been stealing the strawberries.

 

[duhmetreE]

Kreider picked an absolute terrible time to start playing terrible hockey

 

[Go Rangers]

Lingren with 2 goals in the series. All for Carolina!

Gordie had 2 I believe

If a player covers the puck in the crease it's a penalty shot. I'm sure that would be called immediately if they were so blatant about it.

They would also immediately implement an Avery rule the next day to never allow that kind of garbage to happen again.

God

The HOCKEY Gods!!

So change while they've go possession in their zone.
Rotate the high forwrad and they go off while the team plays PK, it shouldn't take too long for the fresh player to get back so you're doing a few short (10 second?) PKs instead of a 2 min one

THAT'S THE POINT THO. To get a stop!

 

[Kords]

@Kords What are you seeing that makes you think Kreider is injured? I'm not disagreeing, I'm just curious.

There have been a few loose pucks that he could of easily gained, instead he gives them up and skates back. He was doing it in the Pens series and now in back to back games i've noticed him doing it in this series.

Maybe he's just playing passive defense, but it reminds me very much of that last ECF vs the Bolts where our Dman kept playing that way and we found out half of them were playing with foot/ankle injuries.

0? I’m pretty sure I heard someone say Gordie Howe never got one before LOL but I could be wrong

 

[BBKers]

Bah humbug
