Game 65 Canes vs. Rangers

[kreidertime]

Yikes.

 

[theProdigy223]

Canes PK scheme is really good. Fun to watch, unless it’s the Rangers trying to solve it.

 

[kreidertime]

Excellent first period.

 

[Stepupstepan]

I know it's a small sample of games but I would be interested in bringing both Roslovic and Wennberg back. Just a matter of what they will want.

 

[mrmel29]

First period was the best period all season the forwards back checked!

 

[Rangers94]

I’d love to see the amount of times we get thrown out of the face off circle vs our opponent this season as well as see it overall compared to the rest of teams in the league. We gotta lead the league. I swear just about every face off we get thrown out.

 

[mrmel29]

Great first period. Not so great 2nd. Need a big third period to pull this one out.

 

[Ranger71]

Igor is really back on his game.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Something tells me this is going to be a stressful 3rd period for us fans.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Good lord.

 

[Rangers94]

Gotta love how Z gets boarded and no call.

 

[kreidertime]

Canes are a very pussy like team. Anytime they have the puck and a player on the other team is anywhere near them they get rid of it immediately because they never want to take a hit to make a play.

 

[Rangers94]

Carolina is like watching the late 90s Devils. Lots and lots of clutching and grabbing and it never gets called

 

[kreidertime]

Suck it Canes

 

[Greyvtrayn]

They made it tough but back to back shutouts for Igor...Not going to lose many games when you don't give up a goal!

 

[Messiah717]

Very big win to go six points up in the division.

 

[mrmel29]

Best win if the year. Igor is back to vezina form and stuck it up Carolina’s asses. Bogus icing call at the end of the game there by that linesman and lavs let him know about it.

 

[Ranger71]

Very solid defensive effort all-around, even with the flurry they had in the 2nd.

 

[faatanqui]

Caught last 10 minutes…

missed a great one

good for shesterkin winnin one for moms B day

movin on

 

[Ranger71]

I wonder why Igor said it's his birthday when it's listed as Dec 30th?

 

[kreidertime]

Schneider- Miller is a lot better than Miller - Trouba and that should be the pair for the rest of the season.

 

[NYR_94]

Very good win against a very good team. I think this win puts the Rangers in a great spot to win the division. Great to see Igor back on his game as well.

 

[PorterPanzer]

Another great win with Igor hitting his stride. Very tough to get the puck on net against the Canes, have to take the open shots. Getting tired of seeing Kakko get rag dolled off the puck, it's like his skates are tied together. I agree about Miller/Schneider, while Lav is at it he should break up the tiny Fox/Lindgren line too let Trouba play with Lindgren so he's not constantly having his ass handed to him.

 

[faatanqui]

Now that it has all settled in

and as I have posted before about how special this team is..

How the hell did we come out of Carolina, one of the hottest teams in the game, away on their turf, when every single minute and point matters, come out with a 1zip shutout.

not one could have expected such a turnout.

and props to Drury for tweeking the team without messing with the chemistry.

go rangers
