The difference is that the Pens had 3 home games during the playoffs last year, the Devils don’t seem to have any.

Was I the only one chanting Viiiiiitek in my head about halfway thru the 1st?
edit: lol. Y’all know when I chant in my head, nobody can hear it…..right?

They started doing the mocking chant one minute into a 0-0 game with 0 shots. Expertly done, Jersey.

Feels very odd to heckle a goalie before he’s even given up a goal. Devil fans smooth brain.

Hasn’t every beat writer, broadcaster, podcaster, and fan been saying that Igor agreed it got to him in the pens game and then galvanized him for the rest of the playoffs? Why would you want to poke that bear?
risenomega
Worst fan base in the league.

Saw this on twitter, it was just a cocky teenager. As annoying as fans like these are maybe we shouldnt out his pfp and handle like this on reddit? Its just a kid

Didn’t the pens lose the series?

Hopefully the end result is the same as it was against the pens… with the Rangers moving on

Chanting Igor’s Better to Vasilevskiy in game 1 didn’t work out for us any better last year.
Hopefully this fan base learned from their mistake.

Look, we had Ranger fans doing dumb “IGOR’S BETTER” chants last year that aged like milk.
But I don’t understand how hockey fans have become so stupid as to scream and jeer a goalies name WHEN THEY HAVE NOT GIVEN UP A FREAKING GOAL.
It happens everywhere now.
Like….that’s supposed to upset them how?

When they chant Igor, I just say okay

yo i swear i said to my wife last night when they started doing it really early, “that’s a bold move without a single shot on net yet”

Kinda hard to do it when you’re outnumbered in your own arena

Please don’t do this again before Thursday’s game Devils fans I’ll be so owned
snipermark91
The funny thing is they were chanting igor and then didnt even get a shot on goal until 8 minutes later
LeeDawg24
Between this and the TBS panel last night, I’m convinced nobody but Rangers fans remember who actually won that series
sir_melonz
That worked out so well fir them too
MrMoscow93
Remind me of who won the penguins series last year… What a bunch of clowns

Does anyone have the timestamps of the ‘igor’ taunt and jerseys first SOG?
Because it sure as hell seemed like they had 2 zero SOG powerplays and were down by 1 before they managed to hit the net.

Imagine being a fan of a team where you actually have to post things in a message board saying “I was happy to see about 75% of the Rock was Devil fans last night”.
75% representation at your own arena is considered a win. Little Bro for sure.

I just assumed it was Rangers fan cheering for Igor since it was a home game for us. /shrug
