Post-Game Talk: Los Angeles Kings @ New York Rangers |Game 3| 6/9/14

[mjdlight]

James Dolan witnessing the Rangers getting swept in his arena is what I'm hoping for at this point.

Unfortunately from the perspective of James Dolan, this has been a massively successful year. 12 home playoff dates out of a possible 13. Fans worry about Cups, owners worry about balance sheets.

 

[CDiablo]

Brad Richards has to go. He had like 10 turnovers that game.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

We heard you like the first five times tonight. We get it, you think Quick is the greatest thing since the invention of the wheel, because you have apparently not watched the rest of the rounds he performed in. If we had Quick in net, we would be golfing after the first round.

Sorry but our sulking Swede will never be able to call himself better than quick

 

[Baby Punisher]

((SIGH)) This team is making me stress eat. I'm gonna go order a pizza.

exactly this

You see--I don't get this. I've been a Rangers fan since 72. We've been in the finals 4 ****ing times in 42 years. I get that you're pissed but it might be a long ****ing time before you see the Rangers in the finals again. It doesn't look good but we're not dead yet. As AV says whistle to whistle. That's the reason why we're where we are.

 

[Whiplash27]

Well, all throughout the playoffs we knew that the powerplay would haunt this team. Less than 12% PP in the playoffs and only 1 goal out of 14 opportunities in this series. Kings were at around 83% going into the series and yet they're 93% against the Rangers. Awesome.

 

[theJUMPER]

Can we get a PP specialist in the off season, you know someone who can hit the net on a point shot !!

And lose Richards tickling shin pads from back there. no thanks

 

[Grifter3511]

The resilience of that kid is unreal.. he never gives up or sulks like hank.. Quick is a spinning imagine of New York when your down you never quit... I wish Jonathan quick was a ranger

What the hell does spinning image mean?

 

[jerseyjinx94]

You gotta win 4 to win the Cup, not 3.

 

[KingWantsCup]

Second vide hit the nail on the head.

 

[TheTakedown]

When O'Halloran messed up that call, and the linesman called a phantom icing, the NHL handed the Stanley Cup to their new darlings, the Los Angeles Kings.

Games 3 and 4 are mere formalities.

Hope Bettman gets hit with a beer bottle when he goes out on the ice on Wednesday.

I hate what ifs, but this.... If that goal was waived off, its a 2-1 series in LAs favor in worst case.. Best were up 2-1 thanks to momentum


****ing ******** refs

 

[TruBlue]

The resilience of that kid is unreal.. he never gives up or sulks like hank.. Quick is a spinning imagine of New York when your down you never quit... I wish Jonathan quick was a ranger

This reminds me of a Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop

Yeah Hank isn't resilient...tell me what his stats are after he gets pulled in a playoff game.

The Hank hate is now reaching epic proportions...you can get on him for bad goals but tonight was not the night to get on him.

 

[NCRanger]

Of course. But when you double up the opponent in shots and chances, you will usually like your chances.

In all seriousness, they've probably outplayed the Kings overall.

It's been bad breaks, unlucky bounces, bad and missed calls, and incredibly great luck for Plastictown.

It's really a joke at this point.

 

[jerseyjinx94]

What the hell does spinning image mean?

You mean spinning imagine, according to that poster.

 

[Baby Punisher]

You see--I don't get this. I've been a Rangers fan since 72. We've been in the finals 4 ****ing times in 42 years. I get that you're pissed but it might be a long ****ing time before you see the Rangers in the finals again. It doesn't look good but we're not dead yet. As AV says whistle to whistle. That's the reason why we're where we are.

When the whistle blows it feels like a mercy killing. Then the puck drops and it's like someone resuscitated a brain dead person who's body doesn't know it's not suppossed to be alive.

 

[eco's bones]

This game wasn't nearly as lopsided as EVERYONE is saying. We've carried the play against the best puck possession team in the game. You can't do a whole lot more than that.

Good post.

 

[Inferno]

Yeah, that sucked, but, I do not understand the mindset of part this fanbase to crap on this team when they lose. Yeah, it sucks being down 3-0. But, there are certain posters who only show up in down moments to spew crap. I do not understand that mindset.

im with you...this place becomes unreadable after a loss. nowhere near as bad as ECSF...but definittely terrible.

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Sorry the bolded is true.

Hank FINALLY gets his shot at the cup and he's..........good I guess. After all these years of him waiting I'm surprised this is how he plays.

I'm very shocked at him looking just slightly above average. Quick hasn't just been better, he's been convincingly better.

No. Quick had a great game tonight...

Hank outplayed him the other two games. Sorry, that's a fact. Your narrative is wrong.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Best movie ever or best movie ever?

 

[Dalagaze]

Sorry but our sulking Swede will never be able to call himself better than quick

Please. Go ahead and give credit to the opponent, but if you're gonna ballwash the opponent, go to the Kings board.

I've been holding that in

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

Also, I hope you all know why the majority of us were hoping for the Hawks over the Kings.

I don't think we'd be down 0-3 if we played the Hawks.

 

[Let Blaine Die]

They will not be back to the finals anytime soon.

I'm tempted to think we won't make it back for the rest of Hank's career. I fear this Finals will wrongfully be remembered as his legacy.

 

[Inferno]

tonight, im putting the blame on this loss firmly where it belongs.

on the los angeles kings roster.

they played a very, very, VERY Good game.

 

[jerseyjinx94]

Guys, 4 games to win.

a 4 game winning streak.

It's not undoable.

 

[The Gloaming]

2010-miss the playoffs in the last game of the regular season in a Shootout. Olli Jokinen.
2011- give up a 3-0 lead in the third period, lose in double OT off the flukiest goal in history. Proceed to not even show up in game 5.
2012-choke at home in game 5, proceed to get smacked in OT like always. Henrique! It's over.
2013-meh. Never had a chance of going anywhere.
2014-get ***** slapped in the finals after a magical run.

The New York Rangers. Finding a way to break your heart since 1926.
