[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]

Be consistent with it. If they don’t call that, you can’t call what they called in the second period on Pouliot.
We had a two-goal lead and they get so much life out of King's goal. That’s hockey. One play can change everything. I felt like that play did.
- Henrik Lundqvist


I don’t give a **** about "underdogs". That’s ridiculous. Give me a break. We’re not.
- Brian Boyle


It was a good start, we were feeling good.
But you’ve got to maintain your focus all the time out there.
- Ryan McDonagh


We played a good game and had a good third period. We played well, gave ourselves a chance. We had some looks in overtime. Just couldn’t score.
We’ve played close to nine periods and for most part I’ve liked a lot of things about our game. The guys have tried really hard.
- Alain Vigneault

BELIEVE.

Don't worry about calls, who is tired or how many comebacks a certain team might have. Stay focused!!!

You guys have got this. Start with a W tonight and move forward.
 
The Kings have the most composure of any team we have played so far. No lead is safe against them.

The idea that we can't just bury a team is very worrisome. We have to play like it's 1-0 in Game 7 the rest of the way here.
 
These sacks of garbage and their unsustainable luck have to end soon...........right?

Lgr.
 
I've seen several SC finals where the home team won every game of the series. So it's not unprecedented that we come back to make it a 2-2 deal here. But it's tough, because I honestly think they deserve to be even in the series right now.

A 3-1 deficit gives a glimmer of hope, but 3-0 is just about impossible. That makes this "The big one," so to speak.
 
After nearly 48 hours I'm starting to get my faith back. Saturday was as frustrating as it gets.
 
Pittsburgh and Boston won their series after losing the first two on the road. Philly tied up the series at 2 after they lost to the first two in Chicago. Three years in a row. It's not something foreign to the NHL
 
We need to win 2 home games just like Kings did and we are back in it. It's not so far fetched that we win 2 in a row given that we took both games to overtime after leading on the road.
 
Finish the job, stop blowing leads.

Also would help if the refs don't swing momentum with a fraudulent goal this time around.

LGR.
 
The only concerning thing here is that they have played two relatively good games so far and they have been prone to some not so good ones in between. Let's hope they can find a way regardless of what kind of game they play. A win tonight is massive no matter how.
 
All throughout the playoffs, this team has been over passing and wasting high-quality chances. If they want to win, they need to simplify things and take the open looks they're getting. We need to run this team out of gas and take over the series. If we somehow manage to win the next two games at the Garden, I could seriously see this snowballing to a Cup victory.

The Rangers have the fresher legs. As long as they don't get suckered into going tit-for-tat with the Kings in the physicality department, we should be able to wear them down.
 
Hold serve.

Need more from our big guns.

Need to keep skating, and our transition game to be clean. Support each other through the neutral zone. Support each other in our own end. Up and down the ice as a unit of five. Clean up the turnovers. Clean up the execution.

Here. We. Go.

This is why we're fans, for moments like this :nod:

LGR
 
I think the Garden crowd will be the deciding factor and difference maker tonight...

We need the ol' school rowdy nyc attitute crowd for these 2 home games..

And a few lucky bounces as well...
 
By the way, we can't keep letting Gaborik, Williams, and Carter shoot the puck clean on Hank. They have been killing us with the long shots that get deflected in all series, watch out for Mitchell, Voynov. Martinez on the blue line and pressure them to fumble pucks with our speed.
