I said we’d win comfortably tonight and now I’m saying we’re gonna win Monday advancing to the ECF finals and it’s not gonna be close
Give this team so much credit. Down 3-1 against the Pens, they win 3 straight elimination games. Down 2-0 against the Canes, they win 2 straight to get back into the series. Down 3-2, they win their 4th elimination game. Truly gritty and gutty stuff. Cannot stress that enough - so much credit to this team. With that said, winning game 7 is going to be so tough. Outside of almost stealing game 1, they have been outclassed in that building, and the Canes have been dominant at home. The Rangers have struggled in all their road playoff games. Outside of the anything can happen in a game 7 mantra, it is very difficult to see the Rangers winning down there. I will say if they are going to win though I think two things need to happen - Panarin and Kreider MUST show up, and I think the Rangers scoring first and forcing the Canes to play from behind and maybe feel the pressure, is huge IMO. If there is a recipe for victory I think that is it.
We of course want it to keep going and for this team to be one win from the ECF is incredible for this group.
Good game but have to win 7 . The team is young but they have enough vets that need to help win this game … Panarin, Kreider, Strome, Trouba i bet Reaves scores G7
Solid win. There's no harm in predicting the Rangers winning, it won't affect your board cred and makes watching the games much more fun. Goodrow back to win face offs is huge for game 7. Tiny Tony costs his team a PP because he just can't help being a douche - good riddance. The officiating was bad enough with the phantom hook on CK and Igor's interference call for deciding not to play a puck behind the net but the braying jackasses doing commentary make it unbearable. Keep up the hitting, the Canes are cracking. Let's Go Rangers!
Melrose hates the Rangers. I think he wanted to coach here and they told him to get lost. He hasn't given them an ounce of credit since the beginning of the playoffs.
Yes, that was the line I was like WTF? Predict the Canes will win game 7, that is fair, but they could have easily won last night - that is ridiculous.
For him to say that yet not mention how we could’ve easily won game one is a slap in the face and a clear sign of his bias coming through.
