Post-Game Talk: Storm the Weather

[bl02]

But we actually score on our PPs (and theirs), so any PPs we get are unfair.

lol Yep that's it. Abolish all power plays and good goaltending

 

[romba]

Two things we're not doing that we were extremely guilty of during the regular season.

1- not covering the slot/ trailer. We'd have defensive breakdowns leaving guys absolutely wide open in prime areas off the rush or cycle, 5+ times a game, sometimes a period. This actually occurred more against the Caps in the first round than it is now, possibly due to the Canes muck and grind mindset.

2- Giving up odd man rushes. We'd give up five 3 on 2s, three 2 on 1s, and a couple of breakaways each game.

Both of the above have been really cleaned up.

He ought to know better

You're right, but as a former NYR Captain Dave Maloney he can't help rooting HARD for the team and often loses control during big plays/calls. He's a meme at this point, and fans love it due to the passion. On his show, Michael Kay, the Yankees announcer, rips Dave for doing this to his cohost Don Lagreca who is the Rangers back pbp radio guy. Don always says he's cool with it and fans love the absolute passion he brings

Underrated opposing hf boards to read are the Penguins. We are being gifted the stanley cup because of all the penalties we get.

At least Devils/Islanders nonsense is out of hate. That I can respect. But Penguins fans talking about calls? That's a special kind of special.

The Penguins have the most entitled fanbase of all 32 in the league. That's what happens when you go from Lemieux, Jagr, etc. to Crosby, Malkin etc.

The amazing thing is that these people abandoned their team in the intervening years when they sucked, forcing the NHL and Lemieux to save the franchise from relocation. At lot has changed economically in Pittsburgh in the last 25 years, but I'm still intrigued to see the Penguins attendance when Crosby and Malkin are gone and the team (hopefully) is a bottom feeder once more.

Tony DeAngelo comes from long line of hotheads. In 1875, his great grandfather Vincent DeAngelo got into an altercation on the transcontinental railroad with another passenger over a dispute of who gets the private cabin. Mr. DeAngelo was seen putting down his top hat and opera gloves before assuming a fisticuffs stance.

I hope he’s also emulating Kreider in his training. And listening to Chris, it sounds like he is.

He's definitely learning from him! Hopeful the in front of the net deflections start coming!

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I kind of want a compilation audio of Dave Maloney going bananas on the air...

Trochek taunting Aho was also a highlight moment if you allow yourself to be a bit mean

It was, and I DO.

Ignorant dweebs. They conveniently forgot that the Rangers have been penalized more than the PP's that they have received.

 

[Bob Richards]

One of the more iconic Rangers.

I remember when he was drafted, very few of us were familiar with him. The Versus draft broadcast pitched him as I think the second best skater in the draft, ironically behind Tavares of all people.

I still remember the palpable excitement of this board watching his final college hockey games (still the only college games Ive ever actually watched with any interest) and how excited we were to get him on ice for the playoffs.

And how I think it took a Carl Hagelin suspension to get those gears fully moving lol

It was my bad, I didn't know who was doing the radio colour and while it was a bit annoying, totally allowed for Maloney. 1

Omg

AI is amazing isn't it? Think about the possibilities with Emily...

POTY. Not even a close 2nd.

This is awesome and a good reminder that these guys are so young and learning as they go.

Do Something, Kakko! Episode 9 “Lisan al Gaib”

Defiant rookie Matt breaks Coach Pete’s only rule when he goes on hfboards and reads rumors about the return of a messiah known as Chytil. Jacob suffers a head injury that awakens his chaotic alter ego, Tuba. Joe worries as Sam becomes increasingly obsessed with players who share the same last name. Dave Maloney seeks counseling for his anger issues from the most calm, level-headed man he knows--newly retired Jack Edwards. Kakko uses ZYN in an attempt to impress Emily.

 

[Cmox]

Awesome job representing. So freaking loud!

 

[Leonardo87]

Really wish we knew the reason Kreider didn’t get the “C” ? Maybe he turned it down or maybe he isn’t a vocal leader in the locker room but I find that hard to believe.

 

[kovazub94]

I think Carolina has done a horrible job with energy management in games, while we have been super patient and methodical just waiting for our chances. they go all out in the 1st and last 5 min of regulation but it's not enough.

5 min is exaggeration but can clearly see a drop off around the game's mid-point.

 

[0ldTimeHockey]

its only noon here on the east coast and I probably watched the Panarin goal about 6,000x already

Our net front and slot coverage has been absolutely stupid this entire playoffs. Among the best I've ever seen. Considering how many pucks Carolina pounds to the net front, the puck retrievals and battles in front to recover rebounds/blocks has been arguably the strongest part of our defensive game.

Don't want to go digging and maybe someone remembers offhand, but i seem to remember @Edge making a few implications regarding why Kreider and Zib didn't get the C.

[Rangers in 7]

The Rangers 7 win streak high is so good people are giving away their girlfriend's swimsuit photos.

make it 16 ill find a nude somewhere

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

make it 16 ill find a nude somewhere

If the Rangers win 16 in a row on their way to the cup victory, I'll streak down the street naked.

 

[Machinehead]

Five Rangers have scored in this series .

I'm reminded of 2015 against Tampa where in a whole ass 7-game series, Callahan scored like once, and everyone other goal was Palat, Johnson, Kucherov, Stamkos, or Killorn.
