Pre-Game Talk: It's Not Over 'til It's Over - Game 5 roll call

[Maineice11]

One game at a time.

One shift, one period, one game!!!!!

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Please make it quick and painless. The Rangers have tortured me enough.

Dude

We're all Rangers fans for a good reason. It's called masochism.

Get to work this AM, and waiting for the elevator. A guy in his 50's or so walks in and sees my Rangers hat...

Guy: "Tryin to bring some luck to them tonight with that hat?"

Me: "Yeah man, gotta do it tonight. One game at a time..."

Guy: "It's crazy, they're getting beat by blocked shots"

Me: "Just like Tortorella's team in 2012, now we know how it feels. Hopefully we can get it done tonight though. Just have to believe"

Guy: "Well, I personally hope they don't..."

Me: "Ha...you an Islanders fan?"

Guy: "Nope....Devils fan....have a good day"

:he walks out of elevator:

**** THAT GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they lose this series, it'll be an embarrassment to the whole organization.
If they lose it at home, in game 5, it's an embarrassment to every individual in the organization.

 

[ZacUSNYR]

This is stupid this team is in this situation, again.

I have a feeling i'll be turning this game off in the 3rd

Saw a guy on the LIRR wearing his Rangers jersey to work. That guy is my idol.

[NYRFANMANI]

Who was it that said they wanted to "aim for/maybe hit the Rangers in the head" or something in 2012 when the Rangers were blocking so many shots...

Was it the Caps?

I believe it was.


I remember in the 2012 playoffs, every analyst was murdering Torts saying it was "anti-hockey" and ridiculous and they should make rules against shot blocking.

Now the Caps are playing an almost identical gameplan and instead Barry Trotz is a genius.

You should see how convinced the main board is that the NBC broadcast is pro-Rangers. It makes me want to flip my desk in the air.

This game is going to be a rout one way or another. Either the Rangers go out and smoke them, or the Caps get and early lead and they roll from there. First goal of the game will be key.

Pull the goalie in the first period!!! lol

 

[OnlyTruth]

If this is our last game this season(I hope not), I want to say a big thanks to all the fans here, regardless of all the disagreements we had. It was a fun year and it wouldn't be possible without all of you.

 

[bernmeister]

Bernmeister is with ya.

 

[Don Chytil]

I would LOVE to chase Holtby. Hopefully this team was watching what the Habs did last night.

I am beyond excited to be in the building tonight. If there's any time the fans can have a serious impact on the game, this is it. I don't want to have a voice tomorrow.

 

[Miamipuck]

i said they would win the 2 in washington, i was wrong. no predictions out of me tonight.

Same to you! I enjoy arguing with you!
