Was over on the devils board and they were complaining about the number of shots and was it an actual count or were they padding the number to make Shestyorkin look better. unreal.
The only thing better tonight is if Rykov would have played in place of Lindgren and put up a few points. They could sure use a LHD ;)

The Devils had all those shots and a lot of them were low percentage shots. Misleading to say the least. We were basically 50/50 in xGF. Never felt like a ton of high danger chances.

Shesty is so calm that some of those high quality shots don't feel like it.

TDA was fantastic tonight. Slapper to Kreider was unreal. Perfect execution on a set play.

Kreider was great too. Did all the things he is capable of. Speed, screening, and cashed in on his breakaway.

Panarin is the best player we've had in forever. Jagr like dominance.

The bottom of the lineup was very meh and we'll need to improve that if this team wants to contend. Feel like it'll happen over time with development and signing guys when we have some more cap available.

Fast does everything right. Such an underrated player.

Mika is Mika. Another strong game.

Buch is so unlucky, even when he plays well. Hopefully he'll go on a streak soon. Feel like he's due.

That video of Hank showing Shesterkin what to do with the hat warms the soul. Gonna miss him when he is done.

It’s a rebuild.

If the King weren't there for that photo-op to show Igor how to put on a hat, he would have placed the hat on his bum-bum.

He will be missed. we take for granted a lot of the dirty board work he does. Takes a beating sometimes and gets right back up. Not many guys like doing the stuff he does every night.

Yeah I feel like I'm tripping or something, it's objectively not a good season but so much of it has felt amazing. It's like when I was tripping and grabbed the "fuzzy" cactus and I ****ed my hand up good but it was "fuzzy" and I loved it.

why watch rangers hockey when you can simply snort cocaine and ride a motorcycle out of a helicopter

This has been a fun season. I'm not overly concerned with wins and losses. Going into the season I just wanted a team that could score some f***ing goals and entertain me, and they've done a great job of it. Now its up to Grots to make the right decisions with our free agents and I'll really feel good about the future.

Who else enjoyed the luxury of having the lottery jackpot figures displayed in rich, vibrant multi-color digital panels on 4 sections of the glass during the broadcast? Because if there's one thing I've always hated about watching hockey games, it's not knowing the most up to date lottery jackpot information while I'm trying to watch the game...

My gosh are the Devils bad and the difference in the game was the Rangers talent— certainly not their execution.

49 shots against in a game...rinse and repeat, game after game— third period was horrific on defense. This is not a sustainable way to win in the NHL.

I’m thrilled they got the win but this team better figure out how to defend and hold leads the right way.
