Panarin has to find a way to come up big in these tight games eventually. Carolina would be a nightmare. Not just for us, but like you said for anyone. I do think we stand a decent chance vs. DC. But Pittsburgh is who I would want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fletch Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Loved the first 15 minutes, didn't get much traffic or pucks on net for much of the remainder of the game. Liked the physical play in the second. I was frustrated with the result, but reason for hope if we get them in a seven game series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Let’s take a step back. We lost 1-0 in what felt like a playoff game. It’s a good test for this team in game 52 or so just to start seeing where adjustments are needed just in the games of everyone on the roster right now. They did not get blown away. They did not look outmatched. They did not 100% play with ice tilted against them. It’s a rather harmless way to be taught a bit of a lessen while still having two games in hand with the team that we just lost to. They do not scare me. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was noticable. He was pretty good, but he really started forcing some risky plays as the game went on. He needs to play it a little safer especially on that icing with under 3 minutes to go. He's trying to spring Gauthier with guys in front of him and not much time for Gauthier to build any steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone is overreacting so what need is there for a step back? The Rangers problems are what they've consistently been. They can't score 5v5 because there's no depth on this team. The Penguins have a top PK in the league. You can't ride the powerplay against them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, more often than not, I like our PP’s chances of converting over the course of the game. They just didn’t do it today, but the Pens did. It happens.

Kick save and a beauty Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 We were gonna lose one of those tight ones eventually. It was a good game overall and could have gone either way. I am sure there is a tendency towards reading more into this one result than is really there. Neither team has made its trade deadline moves and one team (ours) has way more room to maneuver than the other. Good game and we will get them next time.

Valriera Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 What a game that was - playoffs gonna be a treat for however long we last if that’s how the games look. really need to upgrade that 2nd line wing and some non ahl fourth line talent and I think we’re pretty hard to beat.

Ugly/chippy game, where Pittsburgh out "chipped" the Rangers. The consistently being inconsistent is still remaining from last year, except for Shesterkin. If this hasn't been addressed after 52 games, it is unlikely that it will be in the next 30 games. Maybe with some trade this will change, but I don't have much hope for that. It is increasingly likely, that the first round of the playoff will have Pittsburgh vs. NYR. The only question remains is the home field advantage. In either case, Pittsburgh has a ton of experience in playoff games and displayed that yesterday, The Rangers really need to shape up to advance from the first round. Of course I am hoping that they will, but would not bet on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
