Great game, idk why Rempe was on the PP and then took a penalty right away, hope that doesnt happen again but LGR happy with the win, great job Zebby,
Panarin and Kreider
Rangers in 6 MAX! They’re 5-0 in playoffs, 9-2 in last 11 and 17-4 in last 21. Also 39-0-1 when scoring 4 goals. This is OUR year! LGR!!!!
LGR! All the BS Tim Peel Equalizer Penalties in the world can't defeat that PK.
Good score, guessing neither goalie was particularly sharp or the best chances of not many SOG’s found a way in.
The rangers first power play goal was a thing of beauty!
Holy cow you know your hockey sir and I applaud your perspective. Glad I found your channel before we got too deep into the playoffs lol. I’ll have to catch up on your Caps commentaries. Thank you for your efforts. I am unable to watch the games so I listen on MSG radio and now I have an intelligent reaction to a Rangers game to look forward to and not these silly television personalities (not meaning MSG) from these nationally televised broadcasts. Your channel is classic and in my lingo that means you’re doing things right.
28 straight playoff games Shesterkin hasn’t allowed more than 3
Still weird to me that round 2 is starting before found 1 is done
FUN FACT- Do not take terrible penalties against the Rangers & expect to win.
I thought the Canes were trying to play like the Bruins with all the cheapshots it took them out of their game a bit and I thought the Rangers should have had at least 3-4 more PPs. I guess the Canes feel they can't beat the Rangers the way they normally play it's not a good matchup for them the Rangers are more skilled and it shows. As good as the Canes can be at times I could see this series being shorter than I thought it would be they better win game two because the Rangers are winning at least one game on the road in games 3-4. I thought the refs were awful in this game and we're lucky nobody got injured.
This was a really entertaining game. Playoff hockey is best hockey.
Good game on the whole, and Andersen didn't suck – but that Panerin goal… 🙄…Carolina. Do yourselves a favor and put Kochetkov in BEFORE you go into a 3 game hole. Kochetkov has given the Rangers two goals all year. And the team has more energy when he's in there. Not hating. Just facts…
Carolina coming back strong in game 2, Go Canes!
Matt Rempe gets pushed into the goalie and yet he gets called for the penalty??? How is nobody talking about this??? The league is out for his head.
PK and PP let us down tonight. Credit to NYR for doing the right things. We didn’t do enough. Gotta clean it up and stay out of the penalty box 😐
Shesterkin was the difference maker
They play Tool every game at MSG. Not only do they play 46 and 2 they play Vicarious early in the 2d and pretty sure they played 7empest in the 3rd.
A lot of high sticking and a too many men on the ice that wasn’t called.
Rangers' defense was so tight in the first two periods.
That third period became a real nail biter.
Score one for the good guys! Trench warfare. Rangers came out on fire! Get the impression that the Ranger mindset was to get Carolina in position where the Canes would be forced to take chances…opening things up. Gonna be a long series. While 1-0 and 0-1 means much in a series with so many twists. It never hurts to be 1-0 in a series. Rangers fan Confidence meter: 6/10
Crazy that Carolina didn’t get penalized for having 8 skaters on the ice
We just moved to KY but MAAAAAAN how I wish I could be at MSG. What an incredible crowd. LET’S GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
i like tool but very anti Christian.
Canes in 6
Canes made many mistakes and took stupid penalty's. They need to be smarter to win this series. Even with their mental errors they only lost by a goal which says a lot about them
This is going to be a physical series! Great start for the Rangers. All those turnovers will test my heart health though.
Ref: " NY minor penalty #73"
Rempe: "What for?"
Ref: "two minutes for existing"
Wow I wish my team could score three goals in a playoff game…
The Canes are incredible at keeping the puck in the o zone. You’d think NY could chip one past them and get a breakaway or two.
If you drive to the game your car gets vandalized in the parking lot but if you take the subway your car gets vandalized at home.
Horribly officiated first period. Deangelo gave a forearm to the chest and gets reviewed after Jarvis gets boarded. Unbelievable. The league had to make sure nyr got at least one of the first two. In the wake of tight and timid play through 59 minutes svech can’t take that penalty. Sickening. Carolina moneyline Tuesday nite.
Carolina needs to stay out of the penaltybox and improve their power play.
Pressure is on heavy for Rod and the canes. IF you dont make SCF your gone. How many times does he get to fail and still be coach. 06 was the last time they sniffed the SCF, Devils made the final more recent than them. If rod cant get them over the hump time to move on to someone else, if not next year, Rod is 100% gone has to be.
What a series already!
Stars knocked out Vegas 😂
Why is a second round series starting before the first round is done?
Two teams that play an offensive game instead of the slow, grindy defense-first snoozers all the others seem to be doing. This is going to be an absolutely fantastic series. This game was probably the best of the playoffs so far.
HAHA i said the same thing about tool! MSG always has great music choices
The MSG sound guy loves playing tool, I swear every game they’re playing Jambi
Name of the game for the canes is quantity over quality. Take a million shots and hold em in their zone while you do it. They do really well in the regular season and early rounds because that works against average goaltending and average defense. But its tougher to pull off against the good teams
They did the holding in the zone, but didnt even really reach their usual quantity so it just didnt work tonight for them
You could feel the refs trying to give the Canes life, but the Rangers PK is deadly
I have rangers avs in the scf
Gonna be the best series all playoffs I think
I can’t give give you grief for missing some details that don’t lead to a goal but I think the Zibanejad in alone deep against Andersen and did a drop pass instead of a shot that led to a dead play late in 1st.
Crowd would have called a penalty when Zibanejad? Got tripped I believe in the first. When comparing that call to the trouba? Fox? Cross check call it was lame. Deangelo hit seemed like initial contact with head to me but evidently not to PK Subban at all since he thought it was not a penalty… settled at 2min. Penalty on Rempe was unfair as contact was initiate by Staal.
Rangers tried to protect the lead instead of push for more starting in the 2nd period and obviously the Hurricanes came with the push… I hate when the Rangers do that 🙁
Canes were held to 18 shots until they pulled their goalie, so just goes to show how good the Rangers were at limiting their chances. Rangers were very good at controlling the play in the first half of the game, and then of course they started to play more defensive to protect their 2 goal lead. Very well structured game by the Rangers, I have high hopes for them
The emotions that I'm feeling could be encapsulated to a comment, but I think it's a futile to try to write them out because Kendrick Lamar has already spewed hate better than anybody could ever write. Canes pls
As canes fan, this seems way too familiar, our Pk and PP have to show up (they were top 2 in both in regular season) and not vanish like every year in playoffs.. now that Canes can score 5on5 we actually have change of wining anything… please
0 / 5 on the PP is not good even if it is against Rangers and Shesterkin
Wouldn't have pegged you for a Tool fan but I'm delighted to learn that
Hockey Guy, I don’t know what’s better, your analysis or your play-by-play. Two thumbs up. (Yoursweater collection is not bad either!)
