Game Thread: New York Rangers(2) vs Philadelphia Flyers(3)

[Johnnydollaz89]

Congrats, game 1 you all spanked Philly! I think the Wings put down B's in 5, Habs sweep Bolts, Rangers gank Philly in 5, Guins edge Jackets in 7! Rangers looking great & controlling game tempo! Good luck my friends!

Thank you! Much appreciated. A shame Big Ben went down, really hurt your chances. I'm pissed about it!

Just played against the Habs with the Bolts. Had Bishop in there. Got outshot 30-12 but won 2-0. Bishop was the 1st star of the game. Sucks for the Lightning he's unavailable. They could really use him right now.

He's the reason for most of their success, it's a shame he went down

Stepan mic'd up on his goal!

Yeah Johnny, Lightning could've been a very dangerous team with Bishop in net. Him & Rask are probably the top 2 choices for the Vezina this season.

Thank you very much Johnny. My friend it does hurt that he's down & I think Filpp may be playing hurt. I know the Rangers will romp & stomp on Philly! Good luck & much success Rangers & Ranger fans!!!!

Just a little over 2 hours till game 2!!!

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

I wonder how the Flyers will play. Continue that dump & chase or carry the puck into the zone one in a while.

Its game time. What I hate about sports 11 am start time really means 11:20

 

[David_son]

Ill admit that was a b.s. call

Good game in game 2, Rangers fans (and Doob, who is apparently omnipresent). Hell, good game in game 1. Don't think either team has been especially dominant aside from the second period of the first game, and even there the Rangers didn't score.

It'll be a fun rest of the series.

LOL the Doobster has an unhealthy obsession with all Metro Division teams

Anyone else notice how much trouble teams are having defending 2 goal leads? Seems that whomever goes up 2 goals loses in these playoffs.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Welp, that was a shit performance.

@HartnettHockey:

Per @BroadStBull, Flyers goalie Steve Mason won't dress on Tuesday and hopes to play on Friday.

No Mason again. We're the best road team in the NHL, we NEED at least 1 win.

Johnny, you notice how many teams have blown 2 goal leads in these playoffs? Often they've blown 2 goal leads multiple times during games (e.g., 2-0 & 3-1). I think it's an interesting trend in these playoffs. Going up 2 goals is the worst thing you could possibly do in these playoffs.

Yeah, it's the most dangerous lead in hockey. We better get our shit together for game 3 tonight!

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Rangers should go D to D more in the offensive zone, take advantage of Emery's lack of mobility. More you make Emery move side to side the harder it is for him to make the save.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

I'm expecting a huge performance tonight, think we pour on 5 goals tonight and embarrass this shitty team. #PhuckPhilly

You were right Johnny! Very convincing win by the Rangers tonight.
