Game 2 Pens and refs vs. Rangers

As I stated when this series started. Not too optimistic. However, still hopeful. Vali said the Islanders were hard on Crosby's wingers and took them away which was the key. The Rangers did not do that at all in game 1.

 

They have to avoid those bad lapses where the completely lose track of people going to the net.

 

I'll put this very directly and plainly - if the Rangers can't win at home tonight, in a virtual must win, against a 3rd string goalie, they are not the team I thought they were. It is really that simple. This is a game they should roll - just like the Wild and Oilers did after losing game 1 at home. Nothing else really needs to be said IMO.

 

Goodrow and lindgren out. Hunt and brain in

 

That is not good. Lindgren is the bigger loss because he plays D, but Goodrow is a big loss as well. I didn't even know he was hurt. No excuses though as the Pens are on their 3rd string goalie, and missing players also.

Who pairs with Fox? Please do not say Nemeth. Miller and Trouba need to be great tonight and shadow the Crosby line. Hopefully since he was close tonight Lindgren misses only 1 game. Who knows the scoop on Goodrow.

 

Injuries are starting to mount on both sides.

 

Penguins moneyline +150.....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

Smh

 

Goodrow wins two Stanley cups with Tampa. Never misses any playoff games. Signs with the Rangers, gets hurt in his first game in the playoffs. Unreal

 

Typical Rangers

 

Starting already with the weak calls. Nemeth sucks!

 

Dumb penalty...Nemeth is a dope. At least they killed it off.

 

Copper. Panarin passed on shot again. Thank god Copper scored lol

 

Now pour it on this novice goalie

 

And just like that crap defense and it’s 1-1

 

Somebody needs to put guentzel they the friggin boards already.

 

Defensive coach needs to be fired

 

Panarin is a playoff turnover

 

we have a defensive coach??
