Post-Game Talk: Capitals @ Rangers - Game 2 - May 2, 2015 (SERIES TIED 1-1) Mod Message #226

Ovechkin is practically their only weapon. Yeah Backstrom is a player but they don't have a lot.
As Brassard said "You can't fall asleep" So don't.

 

[2Leetch_94]

Even when Lundqvist looks "off", he's amazing.

with the way he games have been going the rangers need to win 2 straight and take the 1st one in DC..can't afford to go down and then rely on coming back next game....this time the pattern is reverse

 

[SA16]

Should have skated straight to Ovechkin after the faceoff with 5.4 seconds left and tackled him to the ice. The penalty does not matter.

 

[9darter]

Fast's best game as a Ranger?

 

[Glennsoe]

did we run out of gas after the first 20 ?

Thought Fast had another strong game..but Henke get's my first vote..

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

JOEL WARD IS IN THE RANGERS BENCH!!

Reminded me of when Pierre ruined that Eberle WJC call. So random and misplaced.

Kreider has woken up. This is huge.

He's usually bad, but today he gave bad a whole new meaning.

The Joel Ward in the Rangers bench thing was so odd, but also when he was trying to talk to Brassard during the game. That was just downright weird.

Fast's best game as a Ranger?

I'd say one of them... Very strong game.

Nah, it's the playoffs, both teams are quality, they're not going to dominate like that for an entire game.

 

[nevesis]

Valiquette is the best....haha

 

[2Leetch_94]

Holtly can tackle Glass and have his mask break as many times as he wants but Yandle's embellishment is the greatest crime ever committed in a hockey game.

Guaranteed suspension, though.

 

[ThisYearsModel]

When will the Nash bashing begin?

 

[bmoak]

So, two games of Ovechkin lined up against the Yandle/Boyle pair. How many goals will he score?

 

[Beacon]

Fast was a beast on defense and offense. Hags had a good game. Brass was really good. Hank was the best player on the ice. Can we trade our #8 for their #8? Even trade, right? Same number and all...

 

[IAMREALITY]

Some of you will never, ever be happy nor satisfied if all you do is fixate on the negative. There were tons of positives about this game too. Try focusing on what those things were instead and I promise you, you will learn to enjoy this process that much more.

 

[nevesis]

When will the Nash bashing begin?

Already started and won't stop (shouldn't stop) until he starts scoring. He's not paid to "defend well"

 

[Giacomin]

Ovechkin is great but the King is better!

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Hank had a great game.

Fast and Kreider were very good as well.

Really liked the play of the fourth line today.

Ovi is a terrific hockey player.

Hunwick for Boyle next game, please.

 

[Player big P]

Guaranteed suspension, though.

But Glass would have a place in my heart forever.

 

[trilobyte]

I wouldn't have complained if McDonagh would have clotheslined Ovi on that goal.

 

[SA16]

Guaranteed suspension, though.

Glass was on the ice lol

 

[GAGLine]

Never easy with this team, but a win is a win.

 

[Cassano]

I missed parts of the 3rd, what did Yandle do that is deemed suspension-worthy by the main boards?
