Post-Game Talk: Capitals @ Rangers Game 6: HANK HANK HANK HANK!

[Unpredictable1]

Why is it defending players don't flatten Ribeiro? He's not fast, but somewhat shifty, yes. I don't understand how they don't just flatten him every other shift. It's beyond me.

I'm really starting to hate Fehr's face. Well, him in general. Wannabe tough guy.

 

[Tawnos]

Everyone is saying Brassard is amazing, and I agree. BUT, Mr Stralman has been outstanding. Ill even go as far as to say that he has been our best defenseman in the series. He played an outstanding game today.

Stralman was awful in games 1 and 2. He's been very good since.

The same reason why Nylander never got flattened. Similar players.

omg watching the replay now, finally saw the Richards open net block. my god.

Was listening to Kenny Albert on gamecenter in the restaurant call it, and I was face palming.

Pretty sure Holtby made the save. Watched it on my 112" screen in slow mo several times and I don't think it touched Brad.

 

[NYRANGERAMI*]

What a game today!!!!! Crowd Buzzing. Elated relief with first goal and only one...lol

Game 7 here we come. Game 7's are all about who wants it more, I dont care where the game is being played. LGRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Thirty One]

Pretty sure Holtby made the save. Watched it on my 112" screen in slow mo several times and I don't think it touched Brad.

I watched it three times on my 47" TV. That's 141 inches total and I think it hit Richards.

I'm gonna go watch it again. My gut says right pad save by Holtby...just missing Brad by a few inches. I say that because the deflection is delayed from the point where it would have hit Brad.

 

[NYRANGERAMI*]

LGRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!....PP 19-7 since game 3. Rangers struggling on the PP. But the caps will pay dearly if they think we wont score on another 5 PP if they choose to hand us that next game. Rangers thriving to the finish line. One more game boys, finish them!!!!!!!!

I swear it hit Richards.

you remember about what time it happened?

I think the real problem is that, when you do a gut-check, you know that it is very possible that the powerplay will not be productive even over 5 tries.
It would be really nice if it could even be anemic, instead of non-existant.

 

[MrEctions]

It might be asking for death. But it would be truly satisfying to see the Caps get a 3-4 PP advantage tomorrow and still lose, would be epic.

 

[RangersFan]

you remember about what time it happened?

right before the 4:00 mark in the 3rd

 

[poeman]

Can someone get me the video of gif of the holtby flop from tonight?

Well really anything can happen. But on the Caps board they are talking about how our PP is invisible. And they are right. But you wanna end a predator that is stalking you if you get a chance. And the Caps have failed to do so. You never wanna keep tempting fate. Because tempting fate could turn into 5 PP for the Rangers with all going to the back of the net. None the less...LGRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!

As it really comes down to who wants it more. And tomorrow regardless of anything, It will show by the final score who wants it more, excuses for the losing team tomorrow get parked at the door. Do or Die. By whatever means necessary. LGR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was that where he fell backwards I think in the 2nd period?

He looked like he got shot. NBC didn't show a replay (of course).

 

[we want cup]

Great game. Unfortunately, Nash was terribad. He must be better.

 

[broadwayblue]

right before the 4:00 mark in the 3rd

Watched it 20+ times in super slow mo. It's impossible to know what happened conclusively from the one angle we get. Looks like it just goes past Brad's right skate and then either hits Brad in the ass or Holtby saves it. lol

Our guy's stick was lifted after the play and got him in the face...or somewhere nearby. lol

Kenny Albert was pretty emphatic in his call that Beaver prevented a sure goal.

Perhaps he had a better view than our TV feed. But the reality is there was plenty more net that was missed. Richards was in the direct path of Holtby, so if it didn't hit Brad, it likely would have been a save. It's only natural everyone wants to beat up Richards, but I'm not convinced this one is on him.

Good way of distilling it. Oh yes, I have many, many times over my many years following the Rangers thought the same, and would not really want it any other way. No point in following, not much point in watching game in and game out if you don't think it is possible.
The team that wants it more should get it. Hopefully, that team that simply will not accept a loss is the Rangers.

Lets Go Rangers

 

[darko]

According to the main boards it's Caps 3 wins Refs 2 Rangers 1 in the series so far

I'm shocked they even gave us credit for that 1 win.

Who says they aren't experienced? lol

 

[30theking]

lol i try not to even look at other boards. practically every other teams fans want the rangers to lose. they have to be one of the most hated or maybe even the most hated team on hf boards. its unreal.
