Please don't let it go 7 games.

At this point I'd say that's the most likely outcome.

We won't be favored to win in Carolina and we shouldn't be at this point.

 

[Black Aces]

Awful effort in the third. Just no life. No effort.

Agree. Much of the game was like that.

Nobody skating. Nobody going to the net.

Too happy chipping the puck to center.

 

[RickChartraw]

Trouba needs to do that helmet throw thing again. This was an embarrassing 3rd period when they had a chance to close this out.

 

[mrmovies779]

Well deserved loss.We didn't match their intensity and it showed.I do not feel good about game 6 at all.This Canes team is starting to skate circles around us

f***er plays Rempe now

 

[qwertyaas]

Like what are they even doing right now. Dog shit.

They thought it was first to 3 wins; and any following games were exhibition.

Oops.

 

[Boris Zubov]

As i said all year we needed to get Othmann into the lineup, we need some more scoring in the bottom of the lineup to help when the top.part struggles, adding Brodzinski isn't gonna help, they need a scorer for that 3rd line.

Here come the hottest of takes. Othmann looked completely lost when he got called up. He wasn't the answer for these playoffs.

 

[noncents]

they can't keep wasting opportunities. will, belief, and momentum are real and matter just like talent, structure, and execution do.

the only goal was a SH. they need more.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Rempe completely toothless in that shift.

No need to play him if he's not going to do anything.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Why isn't Rempe playing? There is no energy on this team and Carolina isn't worried about agitators. If he didn't play him before he definitely wont play him in Carolina. One of the biggest coaching blunders in Rangers history this game.

We were winning 1-0 until he got benched tonight

 

[DuneGoon84]

we'll end this in Raleigh

The top 6 guys were arse tonight. 4th line is slow and clueless. Defense making panicked poor pass attempts. Bums

 

[pld459666]

Playing like they have a 3-1 series lead with no urgency.

Team is having a hard time scoring, but let's sit on a 1-0 lead.

Get your head out of your assess NYR's

 

[InfernoDaLuz]

This team looks checked out.

 

[Black Aces]

They generating zero 5 v 5 and on the PP.

Handled the puck like a grenade. Disgraceful performance.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Rangers threw away the series with that 3rd period. Pathetic effort

 

[mas0764]

I really thought we had it.

What a stinker of a period.

I felt good. We completely shit the bed.

In retrospect you could see their switch flip right after that Trouba goal. They stopped playing. They thought they could win it 1-0.

Hard to turn the switch back on again when you do that.
