GDT: Game 39 - New York Rangers vs Carolina Hurricanes - 7pm EST , MSG

[JHS]

Fantastic win! This team has really turned the corner! Incredibly impressive game!

Boy 3 powerplay goals…it’s almost like that unit should stay together and Laf should remain in the second unit…just so obviously the right move to keep the best guys together. Glad 50% of the Laf thread are not coaching this team!

 

[Boris Zubov]

3rd Star with 3 third assists....Kappo Kakko

K'Andre...that is all

Rangers were the better team, 2nd period on they dominated. That was their best win all season.

The only thing Carolina has is their system. When they're flustered, they stop skating and come away from their system. Then they're just a conventional opponent. Their D handle the puck like a hot potato. I knew that if we got the puck past their pressuring forwards, their d would give us entries.

Biggest win on home ice

 

[Rangers in 7]

That third period was our best period maybe all season. Kakko and laf both looked exceptional

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Maybe they are in the Canes heads? That is very good if so

 

[RangerLifer]

Who called the streak being broken?

I did!! I said we'd win this 5-4 in regulation. I was close. We also broke Toronto's streak at 9 if I remember correctly.

 

[TominNC]

Are we ok again?

 

[ThirdEye]

Trouba a sparkly -3. At he contributed offensively today

 

[RangerLifer]

Biggest win on home ice

Since the Islander game.

Thankful the Canes goalie had a 5 hole the size of Manhattan.

Their system is being relentless on the forecheck. They have points in 17 straight games.
We had a good night, but no need to shit on a really good team. Average goaltending and the Rangers playing a really good game.

Was life in the building for once.

Need to see Laf-Chytil-Gauthier. Vesey not doing anything there. Vesey looked best on the PK.

They aren't the same team as last year. Staal and Fast are overpaid checkers that will continue to deteriorate. Their KK is the worst RFA poaching in history. They miss TdA as a puck mover and Burns will always look like a forward playing D.

The key and why we beat them last year is patience. When we get impatient we play into their system.
