Time for the Rangers to show some pride and hit every friggin canadian that moves tonight to get a win and tie this up at 2. Give the crowd something to get behind. Henrik has been great but he needs the rest of you to show up tonight and get a big win here.
I have no feel for the game tonight. I can see the Rangers playing their typical no emotion or passion flat home playoff game, and I can see them finally playing with some fire at home with their backs against the wall. I really have no feel either way which way they will go. No feel if this will be a W or L. So I'll make two comments on the game in general: 1. Scoring first is big for the Rangers tonight. Get the lead and play with some confidence. Team scoring first is 3-0 in this series (even if game 2 we came back and took the lead...Montreal still won). 2. I think we'll be able to tell early. If the Rangers have raised their level I think we'll see a fast active passionate start. 5 minutes in if we see little life and same old play, I think we are in trouble.
We have to score first. Have to get the momentum and the crowd involved quickly. Cannot come out flat and lethargic and let Montreal control the play. It would be great to get an early PP and actually score on it too.
That play with Gallagher is the issue the last few games. Canadiens have crashed into Hank and not been called for goalie interference. Rangers are afraid to return the favor. Someone needs to crash into Price and if they call a penalty then AV needs to go ballistic on the refs.
I'm more annoyed with the amount of holding and tripping Montreal is getting away with. Two already that should've been called. Maybe three.
The refs are letting both teams play. I'm fine with it as long as they continue to let both teams play and are consistent. I fully expect a bogus call in favor of Montreal now that we have the lead.
YOUVE GOTTA BE FUCKIG KIDDING ME!!!!!! Gallagher does this EXACT shit 2 straight games and no call. Fuck this horseshit. AV better go nuts.
That's totally bullshit. If they are going to call that then Gallagher should be in the box all night long for how often he runs into Hank. Shit. He's already interfered with Hank twice tonight.
What a shock. Holden on the ice on a 2 on 1 and looked CLUELESS what to do lmao. Oh and Stepan doing NOTHING as usual. Guy can't be traded quick enough. Give me a 6th round pick for him and I'd take it.
