I don't trust this team with a series lead. That talk about them being ready was just that, talk. Lundqvist came up extremely small. The defense looked terrible as the game went on but I don't think they where that bad until Lundqvist started letting in softies.

If this goes 7, they're in trouble.
 
Just ****ing win game 6. For the love of god.

If we lose game 6 the series is over.
 
Not the kind of game a championship team ices in a potential game 5 closeout in the ECF.

Absolutely disgusting performance. To think I spent all day with good vibes and feelings about this one. Serves me right. Once again they make things more difficult than need be.

Win game 6 and all is forgiven.
 
Awful performance. We will get them Thursday, had won 6 of 7 coming into tonight, and the loss was in ot. Hank will bonce back.

The good thing is there is no way he plays that laughably bad again next game.
 
They didn't show up tonight. Bomb passes so they didn't have to skate. Soft goals. Basically gave the Canadians the game. I still don't understand the canadiens fans, they chant the opposing tenders name the entire game...you do that after they give up a goal... Not when its 0-0 or your own team is losing.
 
Tough loss after that rally in the second. Sorry Hank fans but I blame Henry for this loss. We coulda clinched tonight but he was prob on a boat all weekend partying. #nofocus

Boys looked tired in the third. I think the rally and Habs comeback after sucked the life out of them. Anyway on to Thursday gotta clinch at home.
 
They spent the whole night chasing the game. The fact that they gave the lead right back twice after tying it is despicable.
 
awful goaltending tonight. only thing worse was our defense.

offense was very meh.

you knew the "house of horrors" would come into effect at some point. very very scary game 6 coming up.
 
I think we would have all taken it if before the series started someone said the rangers were going to lose game 5 in Montreal up 3-1 heading back to the Garden 3-2. Everyone needs to relax. Before this game the Habs had a lead for 3 minutes total. Everyone relax. Better to be embarrassed in a game like this, to give your pride a bruise to light a fire under your ass. On the bright side, they scored 4 goals. They have to be happy about that and they have a goalie with the best save percentage going into the game. Its a laugher. No worries.
 
Staal has been literally pure liquid sewage this series.

Has done nothing right at all.

Why does he look like Chara some nights, and then the other nights an ECHL player?

Idgi.
 
Painful. But Kudos to the Habs for playing a gutsy game. As ugly as that was, I am completely confident the Rangers will close this out at home.
 
It boggles my mind that this team continues to come out flat in games where they have the opportunity to put the nail in the coffin.

Stupid, stupid play by Moore. He'll get at least a game. If he gets more than two, just further proves how incapable this league is of being consistent.

Pulling Talbot that early was foolish. Putting one of the slowest players on the team at the point was just the icing on the cake.

Klein and McDonagh were the lone bright-spots on D.

Great effort from Stepan and Kreider. Good bounce back from CK after that opening penalty.

Rangers have to win on Thursday. They have to.
 
Kills me that we came back from 4-1 just to lose it in like 50 seconds. The inability to close out a series is maddening.
