Game 3 Panthers vs. Rangers

[NYR_94]

That is depth, something the Rangers have. This game is not over though, I'd love to kill off the rest of the PP to start the 3rd, then keep playing your game. The Panthers will have a big push in them in the 3rd, I am pretty confident of that. We need to withstand it.

God dam another fluke goal

 

[Messiah717]

I was going to say you cannot just Florida attack for 15 minutes.

 

[Stepupstepan]

Must be Nice to have your number 1 center show up for the series unlike our number 1 center

His first of the series

 

[Stepupstepan]

He’s gotten assists and being more noticeable than Mika

 

[Ranger71]

Dumb by Chytil there.

 

[Stepupstepan]

I mean when your top players don’t show up for the series it’s hard to win many series

 

[Stepupstepan]

Panarin and Mika have disappeared as the playoffs have progressed

 

[Rangers94]

Absolutely have to score on this PP. welp so much for that.

 

[Messiah717]

Killing a four minute penalty including a short handed goal to go up 4-2 only to cough it up with two quick goals cannot happen.

 

[mrmel29]

Goons come back. Mika hit himself with his own stick!

 

[Stepupstepan]

Too bad that’s not going to be a pp

 

[BigDaddyAl1973]

How many broken sticks are we going to have

 

[mrmel29]

Another penalty on the useless trouba. He sucks

 

[Ranger71]

Too many guys being total duds.

 

[Rangers94]

Trouba is 100% getting bought out in the offseason. He’s been one of the biggest reasons why this team has collapsed and Florida has come back. His stupid penalties and mediocre play are crippling this team.

 

[Rangers94]

We shorten the bench and won’t let Rempe out there, but we will keep putting Captain retard out there to fuck the team over.

 

[Rangers94]

Florida’s spacing and willingness to shoot from anywhere and everywhere on the PP is a complete 180 from our crappy PP. No one willing to shoot on our PP, guys standing around and making weak plays on the perimeter.

 

[Messiah717]

The biggest issue is not nearly enough shots. Yes, they had a 4-2 lead but they’re getting grossly out-chanced.

 

[Messiah717]

Florida’s spacing and willingness to shoot from anywhere and everywhere on the PP is a complete 180 from our crappy PP. No one willing to shoot on our PP, guys standing around and making weak plays on the perimeter.

Too often looking for the perfect shot while wasting 90 seconds of the power play. Florida doesn’t pass up shots. The Rangers do far too often.

 

[Rangers94]

D-pairings are totally different. Wish Trouba just wouldn’t be out there at all though. Only a matter of time til captain fuck up screws up again.

 

[Rangers94]

Too often looking for the perfect shot while wasting 90 seconds of the power play. Florida doesn’t pass up shots. The Rangers do far too often.

Yep. This was their Achilles heel last year. Overpassing, trying to get the pretty goal and forgetting that ugly goals count just the same as pretty ones.

 

[Ranger71]

Total domination.

 

[Rangers94]

Trouba, as has been the case for most of the playoffs, has been the other teams best player. Give me Jones over Trouba. Give me literally anyone over him.

 

[BigDaddyAl1973]

Are our forwards not covering their d ? Why can't we get out of the zone..seems their pinches always beats out our forwards

 

[kreidertime]

Playing defense like a bunch of monkeys trying to fuck a football.

 

[Ranger71]

This feels like that Ottawa series a few years ago when they had a chance to take over the series and blew a 2g lead and lost in OT.

 

[Rangers94]

Because our forwards aren’t willing to go to the boards and take a hit to move the puck. We lose 90% of the board battles before we even get to the boards because we don’t communicate and we don’t have the balls to fight for the puck. We whack at it with our stick whereas Florida goes full body for it.

 

[Messiah717]

This feels like that Ottawa series a few years ago when they had a chance to take over the series and blew a 2g lead and lost in OT.

The difference is the reality here is that they’re getting dominated. Sucks to blow a 4-2 lead but if not for Shesterkin this game is long over.
