Hate to say it's over with twenty minutes left but I don't see one goal let alone two. The entire team should be embarrassed outside of Igor. This game should be 6-0.
Anyone want to guess how badly the Rangers get out-shot in the 3rd? Im thinking somewhere in the 2:1 ratio range.
Out of all first overall picks Alexi fucking Lafreniere had to fall into their lap. He is a complete bust.
Really goes back to game three where they came out dead with a 2-0 series lead. This team didn't have it.
Exactly. Played 2 periods of horrific hockey. That goal by McLeod summed up the gm. Fox dicking around with the puck to burn time and turns it over in his own end. Horrible passing entire game and terrible turnovers. They couldn’t beat the Blue Jackets tonight in a reg season game let alone a good fast desperate Devils team. It probably should be 5-0. This team is infuriating.
Also, can't constantly be playing game sevens and always expect to come out on top. They did this to themselves and clearly this team was flawed.
Yeah, but let's be real. Game 3 played whatever type of game. Games 4 & 5 no show no emotion. Game 6 terrible first period, somehow found it in the 2nd and 3rd and won the game. Game 7 no show no emotion through 2 periods. Can we be real and call it what it is, since game 3 we have 3 no show no emotion games, one whatever type game, and one game where somehow we found it in the 2nd and 3rd periods. And in games 3, 4, 5, and 7 we have TWO goals...TWO. Outside of two periods in game 6 we have been terrible in the past 5 games. Credit the Devs, but man what a sh*t show by a team of so called "stars". Which is why I had no feel for tonight, and didn't understand everyone picking the Rangers. It's as if games 3-5 didn't happen, and because we have a better goalie and experience, we'd just show up and win. No way.
I could see it coming. Not that I predicted it at all, I had no feel for tonight, but am I surprised the Rangers no showed after everything we have seen the past 4 games outside of two periods in game 6 - hell no. I am not surprised one bit. And the 1st Devs goal you guys keep killing Fox on, rightfully so BTW, was more than just Fox. Kreider fell on his face, Z slides to nowhere, and the 4th player - a dman - isn't even in the picture. That was a team effort they couldn't duplicate if they tried 500 times. I laughed out loud, and am not upset at all. It was due to happen with our no show, and is actually a perfect capper for this S show of a series we no showed 4 of 7 games.
And BTW - Gallant has to go. Is it all his fault, hell no, but welcome to sports, this is how it goes. When your team embarrasses itself and no shows playoff games, and a game 7, someone has to pay. So unless it will be Drury, and it will not be and he'll get another shot, it will be Gallant, and I think rightfully so. You cannot have this comedy of crap in 5 straight games, minus two periods, and stay as is. Have to scapegoat someone, and usually it is the coach.
I'd say need a miracle in the third but it's not even that. Their play would have to raise several levels.
Kreider has been bad tonight, but who hasn't been outside of Igor? And I find it hard to really get on Kreider who has 6 goals in the series, when outside of Tara with 3 goals, no one else has done sh*t really.
Pan - zero goals; Kane 1 goal and outside of game 2 has been awful; Fox disaster; Z played two periods in the series; list goes on.
