GDT: ECSF: Game 6 - New York Rangers @ Carolina Hurricanes, 7pm ET, TNT

[CLW]

Don't worry the guy who just won leadership award is going to inspire them to victory.

My stream even had a fluff peace on his leadership early in the period.

 

[Profet]

He's been shit in this series. Carolina's averaging a goal a period.

Correlates with how many Trouba's we've played each period.

 

[Jauffre]

We don't fight for ice, we take what's given (not much obv)

 

[LeetchisGod]

Same with Gus! Don’t forget to add him to the list, I literally see a bad play from him every time he is on the ice

There is literally no reason that he should still be in the lineup. An offensive defenseman who produces no offense.

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

If they actually blow this, it's time to start moving players. Lav can stay. You can't blow 2-0, 2-0 and 3-0 in consecutive years and not break it down.

Ultimately, heads need to roll if they blow a 3-0 lead.

 

[80s Kid]

Canes staying out of the box certainly isn't helping. PP chances really drying up and quite frankly, it's a good strategy on their part.

 

[Kovalev27]

He's been shit in this series. Carolina's averaging a goal a period.

Very average the skjei goal was the worst.

 

[CasusBelli]

Never been more confident that we’re getting reverse swept. Silver lining is it will prevent us from getting absolutely shitpumped by the panthers. Three years in a row this core has collapsed. Something needs to change.

I had a feeling it would happen ever since we lost Game 4. Had we been 2-1 going into that, it would have been a different story, but we gave them belief. The rest will be history. These guys are very strong mentally -- give them an inch and they'll take a foot.

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

The joke is before that goal the Rangers were .6-.2 expected goals. This period was fine. Not great. But fine.

Yeah that's how I saw it

 

[Metranger]

Rangers need to stop meandering and then force passes that get blocked. Plus, no one is in the slot! They need to figure out how to get open in the O zone.
It looks like they're just ambling around. I don't recognize this team.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

All sports fans want, when you get right down to it, is to take steps forward from year to year. There are no steps forward left to take in the regular season. This was the best regular season Rangers team in a literal century. The problem is in the playoffs where multi-game leads in a series are proving not enough for this core to take the next step.

 

[Atax]

Our top guys have disappeared. I dont care that they scored the first 3 games. They've done nothing since. Our defense is built around a 1 leg Fox. The rest are shitting their pants. It's a repeat of Jersey.

 

[DumpnChase12]

F'ing pathetic. They forgot how to play hockey

 

[Priorae]

They look desperate on the offensive end, and not in a good way. Our shots were awful.

 

[CasusBelli]

Anyone every think that our 5v5 play suffers because our best offensive dman is paired with a blackhole? Lindgren is terrible. The guy is a 3rd pairing dman

No offense and undersized for the game he plays. Injury prone. Not a great skater. So yeah ... third pairing.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Inside scoop into the locker rooom rn: Quick trying to give a rallying speech while Zib Kreider Panarin and Fox stare at the floor feeling sorry for themselves.

 

[AirGut]

1
goal

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

There is literally no reason that he should still be in the lineup. An offensive defenseman who produces no offense.

Even the broadcaster announcers are stating he’s not a puck moving defenseman lol

 

[CLW]

Bang bang play. No chance for the goalie.

Yeah that was a defensive breakdown. I don't blame Igor. If anything Wennberg should have been covering that part of the ice, but the forwards thought the puck was under control when Lindy had it on his stick.

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

I care just as much as they do at this point.

Not worth the rise in blood pressure.

I'm going to watch Godzilla.

HE cares.

c'mon Godzilla

 

[GENESISPuck94]

Seriously f*** this team. They gave up 2 games ago. Same soft as wet toilet paper vet core.

 

[DoTheBlue]

Carolina figured it out. Stay out of the box and wait. Just wait. Sooner or later a giant ranger brainfart will appear that they can take advantage of and capitalize.

 

[Messrules11]

Looks like they’re skating in quicksand, better start moving their feet and punishing some Canes

 

[Bob Richards]

Sucks because that was actually a fine and totally unremarkable period outside of that stupid f***ing late goal.

 

[Machinehead]

Very average the skjei goal was the worst.

This series could be over if he stops an unscreened muffin from the line.

Carolina has been held under 3 once in this series and he's just getting a pass.

Hank would go whole series without giving up 3.
