Doob's prediction: whomever wins this game wins the series, and then loses in the next round.

Darn this Lundqvist fella, MAF has his work cut out for him trying to match him in net.

Lundqvist is looking sharp as usual, both goalies are getting tremendous help from the pipes tho.

I think it was the schedule Johnny. It wore out the team & didn't give them time to make adjustments.

Oh well, not gonna make excuses. We look like shit, tired or not. I want the team that showed up in game 1. Not this shit show of a team for the last 120 minutes.

I don't get why AV took out Carcillo. Unless he's hurt, Carcillo has been one of the Rangers most effective players IMO.

Kreider may be close to returning, should know more today. Would be huge if he could return soon.

Rangers will win game 4...

-they will make adjustments
-they will get some rest
-it's a must win scenario
-Lundqvist got his bad game out of the way
-MAF is due for a bad game
-Rangers' power play is due for a goal
-Rick Nash is due to score

I say Rangers win 4-2.

Looks like Chris Kreider will be playing tonight, should give the Rangers an added boost.

Alain Vigneault met with the media today following the Rangers morning skate:
  • On Chris Kreider, “he has been medically cleared in the sense that his fracture has now healed and at this stage I would say that he is day to day. I haven’t spoken with him today but I found out yesterday that he was cleared medically.”
  • Is he a possibility for tonight, “I haven’t talked to him. Today was his first time on the ice with his teammates…I’m just telling you that he is day to day at this stage.”
No word on whether or not he's in yet...

If he was cleared and practicing I assume he will be in.

4-2 Rangers tonight, I just don't see my Pens winning tonight. Rangers will be pumped up tonight plus Rick Nash & that power play is due to breakout.
