NFT: New York Rangers vs. Philadelphia Flyers, Game 1, 7:00pm

arcarsenal : 4/17/2014 4:17 pm
Alright, let's fire this fucking thing up. It all starts here. We're going in relatively healthy with only Kreider out. Mac Truck is ready, Brass is good to go. Time for MSL to step the fuck up and do what he's always done in the playoffs.

We must protect home ice and ideally, we need to get out of this series in less than 7 games because if we're going to make a run, we can't keep getting stuck in long series' like we did 2 years ago.

Trim or shave the beard one last time and keep the bad vibes the fuck out of here. Let's fucking go.

Weak sauce

from McDonagh, he gave up the puck well before he even got hit
Jesus  
BurberryManning : 4/17/2014 7:27 pm : link
If this team wants to play a pussy game and they win, then let's go and fucking do it but for Brian Boyle or anyone to start chirping like they're going to do shit is fucking pathetic.
first period at home--Rangers have sucked all season  
oipolloi : 4/17/2014 7:27 pm : link
Especially Henrik. He will probably let up another this period and then shut the door the rest of the game. Rangers win 4-2
Rangers don't win if Nash/MSL don't start putting pucks on net

horrible whiff by McDonagh  
Greg from LI : 4/17/2014 7:28 pm : link
Jesus he looks awful
McD lookin shaky

Figure it'll take a bit for MCD to settle into his groove..  
BurberryManning : 4/17/2014 7:29 pm : link
he's the least of my concerns.
As usual  
MookGiants : 4/17/2014 7:29 pm : link
Boyle cant finish
keep peppering Emery and he'll give up some softies  
Greg from LI : 4/17/2014 7:31 pm : link

Actually a great shift for BB and that line even without the finish..  
BurberryManning : 4/17/2014 7:31 pm : link
in the past Boyle has used the playoffs to really demonstrate his value so now its his stage to shine
Come on Mook  
B in ALB : 4/17/2014 7:31 pm : link
That was a good shift by Boyle.

...Nash had 2 of the 5 Ranger shots on goal?
Zucc!!!!  
baadbill : 4/17/2014 7:33 pm : link
Fuck yea!

Now, it's my understanding from you guys that Nash is supposed to be one of the best in the NHL and MSL even better ... both on same line - they should be DOMINATING, no?

Well, it would be nice if they fucking started!
Zuuuuucccccccccs

Let's fuckin GO
Wuphat  
baadbill : 4/17/2014 7:35 pm : link
That line isn't dominating like they should ... there's a difference between a SOG and controlling the puck ... that line has to dominate if the Rangers are going to win this series
Holy crap we're 14 minutes into the first game..  
arcarsenal : 4/17/2014 7:36 pm : link
We're already shitting on Nash and MSL? Can we give them more than 1 period? They haven't even played badly.. especially Nash
You said they needed to put the puck on net  
Wuphat : 4/17/2014 7:36 pm : link
If you meant something different than that, perhaps you should have posted that instead.
Emery will def give up goals we just need to keep pressuring.  
arcarsenal : 4/17/2014 7:37 pm : link
He doesn't look solid at all. His lateral movement just ain't there
Emery just looks rattled to me  
BurberryManning : 4/17/2014 7:38 pm : link
Pepper the net
they keep playing like this and they'll win  
Greg from LI : 4/17/2014 7:39 pm : link
Mostly controlling the play

Ok. I'll try to be more clear moving forward. By putting the puck on net, I mean they need to dominate the way you would expect two of the supposed best players in the league playing on the same line should.
So, much more than just put the puck on net then

LOL ... well it starts there I'd think ... guess I talk hockey different than you ... like I said, I'll try to be more precise and not use colloquialisms
Yeah, silly me,  
Wuphat : 4/17/2014 7:44 pm : link
when I say put the puck on net, I mean put the puck on net.

Like that - if that was a SOG ... just now by Nash ... really  
baadbill : 4/17/2014 7:44 pm : link
isn't worth spit
I'm pretty sure any shot on goal  
Wuphat : 4/17/2014 7:45 pm : link
is better than no shot on goal.

ummm ... no, that just isn't true ... Nash threw that at the net ... from the blue line ... nobody in the zone yet so there was nobody between him and the goalie ... all it did was allow the goalie to easily glove it and stop the play ... so, no, it really wasn't better than no SOG ... (although I don't think it was actually on net so probably not a SOG)
Perfect period from a physical standpoint  
bigbluehoya : 4/17/2014 7:51 pm : link
PowerPlay surplus, stayed out of the box entirely, but didn't back down one ounce from these scumbags
oh go fuck yourself Carter  
Greg from LI : 4/17/2014 7:55 pm : link
The Rangers controlled most of the first period, and you were complete garbage as a Ranger
On two of nash's shots  
B in ALB : 4/17/2014 7:55 pm : link
He tried to deke emery into leaving the crease early thinking the puck would be dumped in and instead fired it on net.

They must've seen something on film that shows emery vacating a bit earlyand nNash is trying to catch him.
I'm going to defer to

Yanks just turned a beautiful triple play.
The Rangers are second in the NHL in shots per game  
oipolloi : 4/17/2014 8:02 pm : link
So, I don't think the answer is to shoot more.



My playoff nerves are in full effect

Yes. They should shoot less. Genius.
Nice pressure by 4th line

SOG aren't the end all ... Flyers had a 1-0 lead with one SOG ... I'm more interested in pressure and puck possession and scoring chances, than SOG
Having said that  
baadbill : 4/17/2014 8:11 pm : link
Rangers have the better in all those categories ... at least the 2nd, 3rd and 4th lines do
Dammit

That line is having their way with the Flyers so far ... so is is the Ranger's 4th line ... I am so fucking pumped

Your basis for argument was that the Rangers were second in shots during the regular season. You mentioned nothing regarding tactical changes to set up better shots.

Get a better argument.
Rangers are definitely outplaying them  
oipolloi : 4/17/2014 8:18 pm : link
but they have to translate that into goals
And Flyers are playing much less physical  
baadbill : 4/17/2014 8:18 pm : link
than I anticipated ... I think they're having trouble keeping up with the Rangers play
Then again the 1-1 score probably has a lot to do with it  
baadbill : 4/17/2014 8:21 pm : link
... let it get 3-1 for either team and Flyers probably start taking greater liberties
