I mean how the fuck are they 0 and 3 against Florida teams in the ECF. Florida teams have embarrassed ny teams in the playoffs for years. It’s fucking laughable
If it is Florida, why are the Rangers 1-4 in the ECF since 2012, is that Florida? If it is Florida, why did the Rangers not show up against NJ last season? If it is Florida, why did we get rolled after being up 2-0 against TB in 2022? If it is Florida, why do we make just about every series as difficult as it can be by having to comeback down 3-1, or going 7 against inferior teams? If it is Florida, why did we lay an egg against Ottawa a few years back? If it is Florida, why do the Rangers continuously come up small in big spots late in the playoffs and score 0 or 1 goal? If it is Florida, why did we waste Hank's career? If it is Florida, why are we wasting Igor's career? The answer is the players we have had for the past decade plus are not good enough. We have had too many fat cat, soft, East West, refuse to get dirty, refuse to get pucks on net, refuse to play the way you need to play to win late in the playoff's guys. That is the issue, not Florida.
All the talk just to honestly offer no effort out there. Like was said they didn’t have or create a single legitimate scoring chance.
Rinse and repeat, year after year same theme. Let's all make a plan to be back here next year around this time saying the exact same things. We can play it on loop since it happens just about the same way every playoffs.
Wait, the Rangers were shutout or scored 1 goal in an elimination game, that is rare and new, must be Florida since that hasn't happened to this team YEAR AFTER YEAR. But give them credit guys, they did have 4 shots in the 3rd period. And how funny is it that East West finally scores his first goal of this series, and his first goal in 9 games when it is pretty much over down 2 with under 2 minutes left. He earned that $11.6M salary.
Yup, just like game 5. As far as I'm concerned, when the game was on, they scored ONE goal in games 5 & 6 combined.
Igor should pull a Roy and demand a trade and get out of here. Don’t be another Hank and waste yourself with this loser franchise
5 shots in the 3rd, they tried guys. Florida was just too good, that is why they scored 0 or 1 goal in an elimination game AGAIN like they do just about every single season. FLORIDA!!!!
This is sad but true. Do you want to be Hank, an all-time great HOF'er, but no Cup. If Igor wants a Cup he has to get out of here when he can. He's a UFA after next season, why re-sign here?
