Igor starting tonight

4 goals in 3 games against a team missing half its defense is unacceptable. It starts and ends there.

Must be the Rangers in the "playoffs"....

Kakko will be good but i wonder a little about his ability to make plays on his own.

I disagree with this. In the first two periods they played about 500 times better than any of the 6 periods in games 1 & 2. They, as usual in the playoffs, could not finish. It was bound to bite them in the 3rd, and it did. The 3rd they were done, and it showed as it was all Carolina. Hopefully we learn some good lessons for the future.

500 times better? Right. They played the exact same way in game 2 ( I didn't get to watch game 1) . They got their asses handed to them in the worst way. Couldn't control the game at any point, even strength, on the power play. They sucked. No one played well. They made stupid passes, gave away the puck constantly. Pathetic.

I don't. I think he is going to be a stud who will make his own plays, and make plays for other. With a North-South element to his game as well.

I saw the first two periods tonight very differently than you did I guess. The Rangers controlled long stretches of both of those periods. They never did that in games 1 & 2. At days end a loss is a loss, and that's all that matters, but in periods 1 & 2 tonight they were way better I thought.

All good.

First two periods were definitely the best two they played all series. But as I said before allowing the Canes to go into the room tied after 1 was a huge win for them. We’ve seen this movie too many times. When you dominate a period like that you need to put goals on the board.

A frustrating end to a weird ass season. Hopefully these games got the kids got some good experience and gave the older guys who will be here next year a wake up call.

On to the lottery and draft. And go Blues!

Howden and Chytil looked like idiots all series. Next year they better take a huge step up. If DeAngelo isn't moved to wing, they need to deal him.
