There were people on this board bailing out and saying it's over. I'm not as big of a homer as Al, but I was hopeful we'd show up because we typically do. But I also know that the law of averages isn't in our favor with this falling behind crap
You guys are funny, game was never in doubt late and you guys all saying why can't we do anything easy. Up 3 with 5 or 6 minutes left is easy in the playoffs. Said the big guys needed to show...hello Mr. Brassard. Now show up in game 7...we score 1st and we'll win game 7...I 100% believe that.
I had flashbacks of the Anaheim/Hawks series where both of those teams out up goals ridiculously fast. And let's face it, if it's gonna happen again, it makes sense to happen tonight lol
So another Friday night game seven coming up. Who knows what happens because nobody could've predicted a 7-3 win tonight.
This series has been road ice advantage...LOL. Game 7 baby...as usual Rangers destined to go 7. TB hasn't lost when they have scored 1st in the playoffs. Bad record when they don't score 1st. We score 1st and put the pressure on a young team and maybe mentally questionable goalie, and we'll win game 7.
Well the reality is that it's now one game standing in the way of getting back to the finals. Monumental game coming up Friday night.
I will ask for the same thing I asked for tonight...EVERYTHING on goal. Show up and play hard and leave it on the ice. Then the chips will fall where they may. All we can ask for.
As far as I'm concerned this team isn't off the hook. Winning tonight is great, but if they had shown up Sunday night, who know's, maybe this could have been the game that sent them to the finals. They still need to show up Thursday, and kick ass ...
I rather have them show up Friday night jam since that is game 7.... But I agree. Not a given we win game 7 if we show soft again. If we show up strong and shoot at Bishop we'll win game 7.
