I want Hank to do a Jimmy Hendrix style national anthem.
Have to start fast tonight – and preferably for the duration of the playoffs. The Rangers were 13th and 16th in first and second-period goals during the regular season, respectively. Can’t afford slow starts.
LFGR💙❤️
Igor hatty calling it now!
I have this weird feeling of anticipation, that I’ve never really gotten before, and I went to game one last year against the Penguins. I hope that this is going to be an exciting series!

Gunna beat the Devil out of em
All im saying. Mika’s b-day today. Bring him home a w for a present
LETS
FUCKING
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
How am I supposed to get any work done today?
How am I supposed to go to my college classes when playoff hockey is tonight
No matter what this sub will either get too penisy or full of doom tonight
The best time of the sports year starts tonight. Let’s fucking go Rangers
Goodbye (non existent) mental health
Lets fucking gooooooooooooooooooooo
LGR!!!!! Plenty of smug Devil fans in my neck of the woods that need to be humbled.
Asked my boys who they thought would open playoff scoring for the Rangers… 10yo said Chytil, 8yo said Panarin.
Things I did not really notice:
Vesey is 6 ft 3? Wth I thought he was at least 3 inches shorter…
Dawson Mercer is on their first line..
Miles Wood is 27, idk why I thought this guy was Kreider’s age.
​
Anyways I’m pumped for the 4th lines both teams have. We need to be physical. Devils are gonna come out blazing. I expect Tarasenko to lead us in shots, and offensive attack. Kreider at least 2 goals. Lindgren & Panarin multiple assists night. Quiet night for Fox. Trocheck multiple posts. Kane will revert back to vintage Showtime. Zibanejad big night as well, 2 goals and assists. Igor 30+ saves. Mikkola & Trouba at least 1 penalty each, and 10 hits.
need trouba to end someone’s playoffs tonight
LETS GO RANGERS
I’m gradually sneaking more and more Ranger paraphernalia into the living room so that I’ll have a full on shrine going before my wife notices

The pre-game butterflies in the playoffs, even as a fan watching on TV, is on par with wedding day
All of the guys on my crew are Rangers fans. Not a lot of working getting done today! LGR! The fucking hype is too real!
Works been a shit show
Sens fan stopping by to say I’m pulling for you guys to come out of the east I was a big fan of Mika and I’ve continued to be a fan of his since we traded him
My non-hockey watching coworkers don’t understand my anticipatory agita.
Let’s get that free money when Mika scores the first goal tonight 🔥
Did not sleep all night and I still feel energized bc rangers playoff hockey
I really don’t want to drink on a Tuesday…but…
LFGR
This is going to be the slowest day of my life
duck the fevils
I like the New York Rangers. They are my favorite hockey team. When they score goals I say “yes”. When the other team scores goal I say “no”
🗣️🗣️ OUT HERE IN THE FIELDS 🗣️🗣️
Just a little something to get the juices flowing. [Do you remember this sound after a goal?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WITMbNF16a4)
LETS!!
FUCKING!!
GO!!
RANGERS!!!
This feels like Christmas morning as a kid. 7pm can’t come soon enough! LFGR!
Playoffs are so weird. You spend all day wishing for the day to speed up, but then when the game starts you get so nervous that you wonder why you would be so excited for putting your body into constant anxiety. Playoffs baby!
I fucking despise the Devils and their obsessed fans
So begins (hopefully) a long two months of excessive drinking
🎵It’s the most wonderful time of the year!🎵
Let’s fuckin go Rangers!
Anyone know if you can still watch the first round on the ESPN app? I’m not ready for the terrible national telecast announcers.
This and the knicks game tonight are all I can think about all day
Who’s fucking idea was it to have the Rangers and Knicks playing playoff games AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME?
NYC is the biggest fucking market in this country. You don’t split it, you let both sports get the most out of it they possibly can.
i have class until 830 but i’ll be watching inside of my backpack LGR
It’s Mika’s birthday
I’ll be reppin’ lady liberty in Canada today HARD.
My dream is laf/kakko are brassard type playoff guys. And hughes is a Nash/gaborik
LGRRRRRR!!!!
This is the legit the most nervous I’ve been for a playoff series in quite some time. Losing to the devils would be so embarrassing
Checked our Ring and saw that our kid wore their panarin jersey to school today. It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
