FIRST game before the last one in regular. Excitement is building exponentially…
Sabres will be on fire for 2 pts tonight, it’s do or die for them. I wonder if our boys want to go that hard. I’d like to see them send the Baby Buffalo’s packing.
This kind of attitude. “We know you guys want to make the playoffs, but through us.”
Tonight’s game could be a dangerous one playing a desperate and competent hockey team. Best thing to do is play hard as that is the smartest way to avoid unnecessary injuries.
That should have been not through us.
I would play Halak tonight, then end the season with Shesty at home. Don’t care if the Sabers win, as long as they win out and catch the wild card to kick out Pens or Isles.
Must-win?
One thing about the playoffs that I love is overtime. No more of this crap that they play during the season 3 on 3 and shootout. Crap.
My first ot game i was at was jp parise 10 second goal in 75. I remember feeling like I had just been kicked in the balls. The crazy thing was how many fans were still in the hallway trying to get back to their seats. The look on their faces was utter disbelief. Like what the heck just happened? Lets hope this year we can all share some great ot memories together,and dare I say,maybe a Cup
Who wins the Extra Effort Award?
I am guessing Mika.
I think Trouba gets the Sreven MacDonald Award.
Lindgren’s a great choice.
Excellent choice…..the indestructible Viking.
LGR! Beat Flubbalo!
Darkhorse>>Vermont>>MacDonald

Rangers pass up too many opportunities that they have to shoot. Buffalo passing on none of their opportunities therefore the disparity in shots on goal.
Caps over Isles 3-0 in the first.
I do not like what I am seeing. Too much disinterested play. They need to be honing their game not mailing it in.
Pathetic putrid piss poor performance in the first period. Outshot 14-4. That speaks for itself and what is says is yuck
I really hope that Kane is just saving his heralded skills, experience and energy for PO. otherwise he will by totally useless, taking a place of some grinding forward.
…When hope was almost lost…

…and here came The Savior…

2-1 after 2 all we need is a good 2 minutes.
20 minutes geez!
Yikes
SECOND friggin time tonight with a giveaway in front of the net. Screw him
Assdancers still down 3-0 after 2
Miller strikes again.
Miller became a huge liability for Rangers’ defense (actually always was).
Hopefully he just lost some money for next season at least
Levi will make Sabres better next year. He’s been very good tonight. Rangers D handles the puck like a grenade in their end.
Ho Hum.
Miller is a joke, yes he can skate and has some offensive talent but that’s it. He was a winger converted to defenceman. He hasn’t improved at all.
Rangers will not go far in the playoffs!! Why!! Because there defense is horrible in there own zone and in front of Igor. Every single game I see the same crap. Good luck with that defense in front of Igor.
Shesterkin has Lundqvist puck catching disease
Sabres were doing nothing until Miller gave them some life.
Assdancers score with 5 min left. 3-1.
Wilson ENG. 4-1 Craps over Sardines.
Now 4-2. Czikas scores. Of course there’s plenty of time for the sardines.
Jamesgeau.
Pass happy idiots.
5-2 Craps. Conor Sheary scores.
1:20 to go.
Pittsburgh is 1 pt back of the sardines and plays Chicago and Columbus to finish out the season.
A Fishsticks loss tonight puts the Pens fate in their own hands. Best Chicago and Columbus, and they’re in, Sardines out.
Well, one point is better than none
Yikes. Ugh
Jesus! Lindgren again. He needs to up his insurance.
EFFING MILLER AGAIN
BIG EFFING KILL
The Terminator is back.
Robocop is back!
Fishsticks LOSE.
Puddy Tats get 1 point for OTL
Useless..
Still waiting for Kane to do something.
I could’ve done what Kane just did
Tuesday:
Pens-Chicago
Wednesday:
Sardines-Montreal
Thursday:
Pens-Blue Jackets
Florida-Canes
Toughest road ahead is for Florida.
Pens Chicago on Tues, Blue Jackts Thursday
Wow. Just wow. Levi is gonna be a problem.
The first time he’s ever done that. Shesty crouched all the way down and gave him the entire top of the net
Kakko got tripped!!!
That’s an absolute redo or goal or whatever it is. He got friggin tripped and I can’t believe no one is arguing
Jamesgeau
Kane = Eric Staal 2.0.
What we REALLY need…. is Valeri Kamensky.
Anyone who has watched Miller whole carrer with the Rangers who thinks we should trade Laffy and sign Miller long term is crazy. I have tried recently to stifle my comments about him,but tonight was a perfect example of what he is.
He is not and will never be a competent nhl d man
Scheinder should get a chance with Trouba and they should play Harper and sit Miller. No ifs ands or butts about it.
Too much deking. Everyone wants to stick handle the puck into the net. Stinko shot it and scored. Miller gave away a point in this one. One more game to go. That point means just about nothing. Somehow the rock stars can’t win a skills competition.
,
Why put Miller in for OT after the game he had?
Pens win out and they are in. Best Isles can do is 93 points.
Schneider and Trouba are both RD’s. But Miller is the guy to trade over the summer. But that ain’t gonna happen.
Levi is real good. He did trip Kakko by the way, smart move.
This loss tonight is completely on Miller.
Was he drunk tonight? Every time the puck came his way he spazed out.
Miller was a one man wrecking crew except it was the Rangers he wrecked. He blew the last two games against Buffalo.
Lindgren is not human….he is some kind of machine. He gets half killed and just says…I’ll be back.
Did they win?
I like Mikkola on this team better than Miller.
Rangers played a good game after the 1st. They shut down the Sabres until the Miller fart. I still hold to what I said about Kane, unnecessary piece. He is not what they needed for the playoff run. I dare him to prove me wrong.
Wickopotamus
No we did not. Lias Mittelstadt with the game winner in the SO.
Going forward. A tale of two hockey players,I wont even say 2 dmen. Miller vs Lingren. Who do you sign for 4 or 5 years? Tonight was a perfecr example of who these twl are. No need to go on,just trust yours eyes. Some very big decisions this off season.
Not even close with Kane and Taresenko. Hope the Tank will be A Ranger for a few years. KAne could score The Stanley cup winnig goal for us and I would say Thank you and have a nice trip to the hall of fame.
Yawn.
Levi only had to make one save in the shootout. Other than Tarasenko every other Rangers either missed or lost control of the puck………or was tripped. Shesty made three stops.
