The longer this goes scoreless the more this favors the canes.

My relationship status with Smith is "It's complicated"

 

[Kovalev27]

Good period, some good chances, Igor didn’t have to break a sweat. Limiting their chances.

Weird wonder why

 

[bleedblue94]

It’s a big deal and people were just discounting this aspect of Igor vs Hank

Hank is historically terrible at puck handling and Igor is like the best in the league with Price.

And also the poise. It may sound silly but it fox like in that almost before he has the puck he knows where his three outlets are going to be. Absolutely no panic. It's like having a Mike Smith that's good at pick handling and good at stopping the puck...

 

[Mandar]

Nee

Kreider and Strome just don't work together, never have. He'd be better off with Filip.

Need to go KZB again....

 

[bleedblue94]

I'd just like to say again how wonderful that Smith hit was. No stick, take a chance you can connect and BOOM. Nice to see a s man step up

 

[Allan92]

It's always been that way for years. The Rangers always looked different in front of Talbot...Raanta...Georgiev...Shesty.

Too much comfort with Lundqvist? Do they try to play a different game to try to play to his strengths? Who knows, but they look better tonight.

Totally agree, we're always better defensively away from Hank for some reason

He must have spent the last decade on the bench cussing the team out as he watched his back ups play behind a temporary iron wall

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Kreider and Strome just don't work together, never have. He'd be better off with Filip.

He never worked with Zibanajad the last two games either.

One of the differences is Hank will 95% of the time try to keep the puck moving, and many times it gives the opposing team additional chances because we usually don't get it out of the zone and end up running around. He's never been that great at slowing it down when there's heat around the corner.

 

[nevesis]

Weird wonder why

Yeah man, Shesterkin is directly responsible for all of our offensive chances and also for the six total chest snipes from 40 feet out he faced in those 20 minutes.

 

[Mandar]

Can you imagine how much that would hurt with 21 more pounds of force?

 

[NYSPORTS]

With Covid and everything, we deserve a win.

 

[RickChartraw]

Ridiculous that my highlight from this series to this point involved Brendan Smith.

 

[Bob Richards]

If people know anything about pilgrims, it’s that they had to watch TV on their phones.

Gathering my 17 children all named Jedidiah to watch a live stream of Plymouth Rock.

 

[CasusBelli]

Nee

Need to go KZB again....

KZB with PSK

 

[Allan92]

He never worked with Zibanajad the last two games either.

Those 50 odd regular season games cancel those out but I do agree with the sentiment, it was the correct decision to move him around to try and get him going

 

[duhmetreE]

Panarin Zibs Kakko
Kreider Chytil Buch
Lemmy Strome Gauthier

 

[BroadwayStorm]

If anyone disrespects Hank it's like disrespecting the man himself... James Dolan.

 

[Cmox]

My relationship status with Smith is "It's complicated"

All he does is kiss us and tell us he’s loyal then he’s off texting other people.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Man these other games, guys just throw pucks on net and it trickles in. So many trash goals. But we cannot f***ing buy one. Super frustrating.

 

[Siddi]

Score early and dictate play.

Lets go!

 

[17futurecap]

CK!

 

[RickChartraw]

Kreids!

 

[CaptTennille]

Hell of a start!
