Game Analysis: ADF SERIES DISCUSSION: Ottawa vs Rangers (OTT wins 4-2)

[THE BIG WHISTLE]

Our 4th line will destroy them

 

[iggyDDS]

considerably worse team then Montreal at every position

surprisingly I'm pretty confident

Pretty much how I feel too.

Haven't felt this confident since we swept the Thrashers. Not sure if that's a good thing lol!

Any thoughts on when this may start? Imagine it depends on Caps Leafs

Rangers in 6. We are fresh, Ottawa had 4(?) games go to OT and Karlsson can barely stand. They lack the depth but they play a very very tight defensive game. We need our passers to find a hole

This isn't torts Rangers. Anderson is good but price was better.

K dont know I feel like Ottawa is pretty deep, as well as their defense. Anderson is very good.
I do think we win but I wouldn't be surprised if we don't.

The fact that we will probably be the favorite to win the series scares me a little bit. I prefer being the underdog.

The Rangers should be able to do a better job than Boston did in beating Sens trap. But they need to not lose concentration and continue to play within the structure.

Hope Toronto wins tonight. With everyone through, NHL would just start the 2nd round earlier opposed to give teams that won early extra rest.

 

[DanyHeatley]

so, we meet again

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

When does this start?

When does this start?

If Washington closes things out tonight my guess would be Tue or Wed...

 

[Deric]

Karlsson will be the best player on the ice, but I think the Rangers are the better team.

Anyone who thinks this is a cakewalk will be in for a rude awakening.

 

[Boruto]

As long as everyone has fun, everyone is a winner.

 

[Hockeyholic]

Can someone explain how in the blue hell Ottawa has home ice in this series?

 

[THE BIG WHISTLE]

Play our system and our style and we'll win. MTL and Pitt are the only teams i am truly worried about. Also no more rats so that's nice.

It's not going to be a cake walk its the playoffs. I think it'll be like the pens series we had two years ago. Close games but rangers prevail and before you know it its game 5 and the Rangers are moving on.

ottawa has burrows

 

[kovazub94]

Can someone do a line by line (and defensive pair by pair) comparison vs Montreal? Many are saying that Ottawa is not as good but other than in goal I thought Sens are a better, deeper and a more skilled group.

 

[BroadwayStorm]

Rangers in 5

The Rangers were the wildcard team, so technically they are seeded as the 4th place Atlantic Division team.

Because the seedings were based on the regular season, Rangers being a wildcard team. We are now the 4th seed in the Atlantic bracket

 

[Krams]

Rangers are the more talented team, I'm confident in our ability to win this series. We had 7 more ROW than Ottawa during the regular season. They aren't as good of a team as Montreal and can't match our depth throughout the entire lineup.

Horrific. NHL needs to go back to 1-8 system. Nonetheless, Rangers seem better on the road anyways.

Wouldn't this be the ADF and not the ADSF? #Nitpicking
