    I don’t think the rangers are done yet. The rest of this series will show if they have any balls or not. They should be embarrassed right now!

    I agree mel - that is the NYR way. Now everyone will say they are finished, the Devs have total control, series will end in 6. That is when the Rangers do their best work. This series is going 7, and flip a coin who wins it.

    BUT even if we win the damage was already done, another 7 game grinder. And if we lose epic all-time failure and they should all be fired.

    Igor has 1.50 GAA in this series and it's tied at two with two no-shows at home by the rest of the team. Cant imagine he will be staying as long as hank did.

    Has to be tough on Igor mentally, as I am sure it was for Hank. Hank was such a competitor though, and he was blue through and through. We'll see about Igor down the line.

    They all played pretty crappy except Igor in these last few but Fox is the guy that needs to step up and make some key plays like Leetch would.

    Mel, lol I bet my money, Igor walks after his contract is up. I don't think he will be as loyal as Hank was.

    Panarin makes $11.6 million for this crap. It's unacceptable.

    Leetch is much better skater than Fox. He could skate circles around the devils.

    The Rangers forwards don't want to take punishment in front of the net.

    Pan is a great regular season player. Just okay in the playoffs. We need more of the reverse.

    To me the biggest mystery is Z. What is up with him. A lot of guys we all can get on and call out, so the list is long, but Z is our best player and he really has done nothing. I guess you can say moving him on the PP, but even still shouldn't he be mentally tougher than that? You barely have heard his name called this series. Strange.

    Maybe he is due for a big game.

    Leetch also had the luxury of playing along side a 6'5" stay at home beast so he could pinch often.

    He has always been this way in his playoffs career. Up and down. Another good regular season player and average playoff performer.

    Well, I guess the extra day off can be good. The fans at the Rock are going to be extremely loud Thursday night. If they don't get it going early it will be another frustrating night.

    PP is also 0 for its last 11 which is ridiculous.

    Miller is someone at this point who should be making more of a difference with his natural ability. He's taken a step backward this year.

    Oh well, 2-2, which is probably what we expected at the beginning anyway. Go win 2/3 as the road team where they seemingly play better and more relaxed anyway.

    Maybe getting back on the road will get them out of their own heads.

    To me you have to say that is a little bit coaching also. To be that bad on the PP, you have to make some tweaks. Let's see what GG comes up with.

    As for the Rock, they'll be 20 or 30 % Ranger fans there also, so we'll see. Road ice advantage - 10 straight road teams have won. Vegas will make it 11. Seattle may break the streak though - still home teams 1-11 the past 3 nights - wow.
