Why can’t we play Miller with Fox? Jones with Trouba? Schneider and Braun?

Agreed. Playing Braun (with Fox) against Crosby just to keep Miller and Trouba together makes little sense.

Laf and Kakko have a combined 5 shots in 9 periods. C‘mon boys.

That’s just plain bad!
They had a good first period in game 1.
Just incredible a guy like Miller can do what he does at both ends of the ice and both these guys can’t combine for more than 2 shots per 60 min???

 

[Wtp99]

I love how NHL.com has “Domingue makes 35 saves” in the sub header for the game.

They f***ing lost 5-2.

They are trying to make this guy the story, otherwise Mario might cry

It’s ok, as long as they are keeping the puck in the other end.

Eddie O was brutal tonight - no way Igor tried to ram into Carter (Igor whiplashed back which indicated he wasn’t expecting contact). For koharski to then come on and agree 100% was ridiculous.

After the Vatrano goal, Eddie says “Pens need to find a goalie fast!!” Was Domingue really that bad tonight? Other than the Vatrano goal it’s hard to blame him on any of the others.

Just piss poor analysis - no wonder Eddie got benched in 94

tschhhh

To do list for next game: Practice those damn faceoff skills

Can someone please make a GIF of the Fox headfake at about 6:25 remaining in the 3rd period?

I can't remember ever seeing a forechecker get his ankles broken like that by a defender who was standing still.

Im dying at Sullivan bitching about missed calls. Go kick rocks while sucking an egg.

 

[Foxy]

We’ll deserved, he made some big saves to keep the game 3-2 at the start of the 3rd.

Im watching espn and they show the carter hit on shesterkin.. Barry said shesterkin stuck his leg out to initiate the contact. What a dumb piece of shit he is.. Meanwhile the host of espn is like barry, carter hit him.

Why does espn still have this moron on tv

 

[CasusBelli]

Panarin did the thing where he cost us a goal, flubbed a few passes and one-timers and still farted out a few points.

Playoff Fox is pornographic. Aside from Sid willing that goal, Braun looked good and might of allowed Fox to pop-off.

KAM is a LEGIT bad man. He's a big moment gamer. LOCK. HIM. UP. NOW.

Igor

Might be jumping at shadows here, but Kreider looks like he's playing through a LBI. There were a few times the puck was a few feet from him, and he backed off instead of fighting for the puck. It reminded me of that ECF where 3 defenseman were doing the same thing and we found out they were all injured.

He definitely was off when he jumped on the ice for the start of the third — lagging well behind all this teammates. He was laboring a bit and looked outright uncomfortable.

 

[Rongomania]

Kreider and Zbad looking a little shitty together 5 on 5 think they should switch Kakko and Kreids, wouldn't hurt one bit.

 

[CasusBelli]

send cokehead carter to the morgue next game

Don’t waste time with small potatoes. Go after Letang and Crosby. Maybe Malkin, actually, since he’s the dirtiest of the bunch.

Watched game 1 at home. Lost. Watched game 2 at the bar. Won. Am I gonna have to watch every game at the bar????

Get your ass stapled to it for Saturday.

you'll notice their talking points always center around negativity on the Rangers, almost always. It's annoying as f*** because it's so noticeable.

Makes me miss NBC in some weird way

I feel like I read pre-game Gallant hinted someone else was fighting an injury other than Lindgren? Or did we find out who that was?

 

[Vitto79]

Nice W
Bummer on Goodrow but can win this series without him .

 

[GlasgowNewYorkRanger]

I like this one much better. I don't go for the implants.

Post of the evening!!

ahhh thanks

I haven't been able to just sit down and relax and focus entirely on a hockey game all season. Always making dinner, putting kid to bed, etc. Managed to miss that little tidbit

Can’t speak to that. I can say, though, that Igor seemed to have been fighting the puck much of the first half of the game (or so). Then he got into his groove and shut the door. Not sure what that was all about.

Reaves made some excellent plays, including a big time hustle to disrupt a 2v1, and I noticed KAM has become a much better communicator. Schneider showed good instincts but needs to work on execution (better than the reverse).

Very satisfying win.
