We're going to have to get more offensive pressure to beat Vasi.

Don’t forget Carolina won the Jennings without having a Vezina nominee. Tampa is “good” defensively, but that was the best defensive team in the league, statistically… so, we should get more chances.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Shit, I don't even remember what we fought about.

Who f***ing cares? Let's go Rangers!

 

[mas0764]

Wait.

Wait.

Is Blais confirmed!? Is Kravtsov even a potential!? I am a bit out of it on the roster moves plus very drunk and quite high and about to take a muscle relaxer.

God damn I would love to see Kravtsov here this series

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Going to go read the Hurricanes sub for fun now.

Glorious.

That’s seven Conference Finals I’ve witnessed in 36 years — so about one every five. Actually not that bad if you think about it from a sports fan standpoint

Since 2012 the Rangers have been a relatively well run organization.

Vasi is just a different beast in the playoffs, though. He's really the guy that scares me.

tends to happen when you get less wrong over time

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

That Trouba hit was huge, but the biggest play of the game was Igor's skate save immediately after we scored to make it 2-0.

Great call. Can’t disagree.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

I’m like 1% offended Henrik Craine isn’t a poll choice after we went from 2 goals in 3 games and unable to score, let alone win, in Carolina to a 6 goal shit kicking within a day of his birth, but it was a fun father-son experience nonetheless. Literally sat in my lap the whole game, mostly sleeping, occasionally fussing for a minute before going back to calm. Such a cool feeling to win a big game 7 literally as my first day as a father with him.

He's going to be a great Rangers fan.

 

[Mike in Houston]

No more Kreider slander. Three goals away from the franchise record.

 

[ohbaby]

The Lightning have won ten consecutive series....

That ends next month. I have said earlier, if we beat the Canes we will end up in the Finals. And I am sticking to my guns. We will not lose to Tampa with home ice advantage. I'll take that bet any day of the week. You heard it here first.

And yes, in my spare time I count chickens before they hatch. LOL!

 

[tlk]

Me late to the f***ing office

 

[Hunter Gathers]

No more Kreider slander. Three goals away from the franchise record.

He has been f***ing clutch. May not show up in game 1 or 2, but seems to thrive on adversity. He's basically a microcosm of this team.

 

[duhmetreE]

TROU! TROU!

TROUBA TRAIN COMING THROUGH!!!

MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOUR HEAD ELEVATED AT ALL TIMES!

Anderson wasnt that far off from a vezina caliber season, but yea the narrative that we beat only backup goalies is kinda BS. We all know Raanta isn't some scrub, he put up like a .930 in the first round and he's always been a starting caliber goalie

My Islanders friend here in Houston back in September: "I hate those bastard Lightning. They cheated us out of the Cup last year, but they won't beat us this year. I hope they lose every game".

Flash forward to today: "Do you know anywhere that has cheap Lightning jerseys that I can get by Wednesday?"

I'm saving him for the Cup

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

Been fun reading all of this, but time to go to the Devils and Islanders boards. If they are gonna be obsessed with us, i'm gonna go and taste their tears. Spoiler alert, they are gonna taste delicious.

 

[LokiDog]

Vasi is just a different beast in the playoffs, though. He's really the guy that scares me.

I’m not that scared of him. The hype and mythology around him has blossomed out of control. He’s clutch, that’s for damn sure, but even with series’ like the last where he allowed what? 3 goals? His career playoffs are still a 2.49 and .920. Good, but not so intimidating that I feel we can’t win a series against him, especially after just beating the best defensive team in the league. We’ll solve Vasilevsky. I believe. I honestly think Carolina was our demon to slay. I think we can beat Tampa, and even do it in less than 7.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Can I please also state that I really do think that Reaves can take a regular shift when he has speed around him. He actually looks quite good with Motte.

I am sorry, but he brings something to this team and they thrive on it.
