GDT: Rangers @ Canadiens Pt. III |Game 5| 5/27/14

[Zaggs]

Lol how do u guys like the little montague nbc made of the habs diving. Nice to see the nhl calling them out for it, and also having the refs pay more attention.

They did it last game as well. League still not doing jack about it. But against Philly they're call Zuccarello for embellishment when the players stick is in between his legs and he gets pushed in the face.

 

[The Undertaker]

I hope we win on another subban defensive mistake.

The guy is ****ing garbage defensively. A great shot and flopping is apparently all you need to win a norris

 

[haohmaru]

Its like some of you didnt watch him play the first period and a half.

He should be on the bench getting ready for the next game.

Its Talbot's game now to win

Yup, totally agree. Maybe the Rangers will be more responsible in their own end in front of Talbot like they were during the season and get one to tie it up.

 

[FLNYR]

16 shots for the Rangers? thats not gonna get it done we need at least that many in the 3rd LGR!!!

 

[Clausewitz]

These are some atrocious save percentages. Jeez.

 

[slipknottin]

What happened to Emelin? Must have missed it

 

[BB58]

Yeah it's definitely been more of a problem league-wide since then. This is just par for the course for the Habs, though. The worst part is that their fans either just deny it, or encourage it. I can not stand any of them. Not enough bad things can happen to that franchise.

Just like the Penguins fanbase.

 

[Super Cake]

Rangers haven't played well since game 2. At least the offense woke up, now where the heck is the D?

Yes, but lundqvist has played well despite the other players up until tonight. I wonder what is wrong with him?

Well yeah, until they turn around and fall for it again when Subban dives.

 

[nyr5186]

If this was game 7, you bring Hank back in. Now, there is no way.

 

[Petey Pucks]

seriously montreal has managed to turn tough hard nosed Canadian hockey into the typical diving you see in association football ( soccer )....they should be ashamed selling all these calls the way they do. this will not stop until the league puts special emphasis on refs to seek out and call diving.

other than that I can only hope the hockey gods our on our side this game and karma comes back to bite the hell out of montreal, as others have said...I have never understood fully what boston fans go through and now I do. Does Montreal have any...ANY integrity?.....this game is pissing me off....the whole series is pissing me off

I hope....I hope we can win this in the end....Hockey gods please grant justice....Montreal now is just bad for the sport....bad

 

[offdacrossbar]

This habs team is nothing but posers, divers and actors.

So sad that a storied franchise would stoop so low as to embellish every brush and tap.

Nice to see a team full of Sidney crosbys. Not.

 

[Doctyl]

What happened to Emelin? Must have missed it

He's so irrelevant everyone did. I actually miss him, he's really bad.

 

[JCrusher*]

Big Props to Stepan. I know i have been hard on him in the past but he has really shown a lot of toughness. The game where he broke his jaw he came back and was hitting people like crazy and this game he has been terrific. Now Brad Richards really needs to step up. I agree he has to be bough otu regardless but the guy needs to at least set up MSL

 

[I Eat Crow]

As crazy as this might sound, maybe there's some other forces at play behind the scenes? I just don't believe we are that bad defensively.... I think there might be some serious betting action going on here...I'm not normally one for conspiracies,but this is just too crazy...

The NHL and team owners sure make more money if a series goes longer...

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

This game is just weird. It seems like no goalie can make a save tonight. The defense by both teams is bad as well. What is going on tonight?

too many players want to be a hero and score the game-winning goal on a brilliant play ... they forget there is another team there.

firewagon hockey, as Doc would say.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

******* the Rangers for giving me hope.

 

[nevesis]

Pulling a goalie in a situation like this is a psychological move to the REST of your team. They will play better knowing Talbot is back there.

It's tough to explain, but it sparks a team into playing differently when their head is stuck in their ass from the start.

 

[tbonenc*]

Smart move to take Hank out. He was really terrible tonight. Give him a pass and some rest, but it is disturbing that they guy didn't show up in the biggest game of the year.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Rick Nash just made love to me with his eyes.

 

[Oak]

Yes, but lundqvist has played well despite the other players up until tonight. I wonder what is wrong with him?

Hank was on a boat all memorial day weekend he needs another day to get back into focus.

 

[highandwide]

let's get this one quick.

 

[KingP]

I actually feel pretty confident

 

[RangerLifer]

16 shots for the Rangers? thats not gonna get it done we need at least that many in the 3rd LGR!!!

Four goals on 16 shots? Better shoot from everywhere.

 

[17futurecap]

Was happy Talbot saw some shots on the pk, get him into this game.
