This whole idea that any numbered playoff game that the Rangers lose is one f'kn joke. This team must learn to put the foot to the pedal and don't take it off for an entire game; not for 10 minutes, not for 30, not for 40........they must play for an entire 60 minutes.....and for God's sake score more than your opponent.
It is what it is cage. I don't think anyone likes it. I don't think anyone is okay with it. The Rangers say all the right things when they approach those foot on their throat games, but the results are what the results are. And in MANY series the past 2 or 3 years we lose those games when we have a little wiggle room. That's just the reality of it. Of course we need to do better in those situations, but it is what it is right now.
Just curious Chuck, let's say Rangers lose this series........will you be okay with "it is what it is" approach? Yes, it is presumptive, but it could happen. I wonder how casual you'll be reacting. And yes, the results are what they are. Teams tied 1-1......and I will say, we all have our own ways of dealing with Ranger playoff hockey. lol
No, I will flip out like a mad man and never watch another Ranger game... I mean what response are you looking for here? Of course I would be angry. I would say the season is a failure. I am sure I will be VERY angry actually and go off a little in here. But me coming on this board and flipping out won't change the loss I don't believe. As for your post above, again no one likes it. The team I am sure hates it also. BUT the series is 1-1. We are still in a solid spot to win the series (just as the Pens can win it from here). Flipping out about how angry you are about taking games with a lead off won't really solve anything. I mean you write that as if you think someone in here is saying yeah it is all good that they don't show up when they can take full control of a series. Or the team thinks it's okay. We ALL think it is ridiculous, I am sure the team does as well, but it is what it is. No one thinks it is good or okay bro.
