Feel like I’m watching nyr out there. Golden Showers have zero offense – no sustained pressure no rebounds no second attempts and too many unforced turnovers.
And I’m not changing that just because they scored!
Despite all this hatred for everything American, I can bet that Ovi, Kuzi and Orli will be awarded by the “Hero of Russia” medals in Kremlin after that.
I’d love to see a statistician separate all of Ovi’s goals by where they’re shot from. I wouldn’t be surprised if close to 70+% of his goals came from the top of the circle.
If that’s not a good goal then defensemen should just push the forward in front of the net into the goaltender every time a shot is taken. Perron tried to avoid Holtby by falling into the goal.
I know this is a heartfelt story but they really don’t need to show it every single game.

As a TV personality myself, I really have to say… PK is a natural. Once his hockey career is over, TV will be a very easy transition.
Old Ranger Fan
Went to the Athletic event and had a nice chat with Carp. He seems to have landed in a good place there. Got there a little late , but, I did catch a good hockey Q&A.
Beezle
Is Carp’s shindig tonight? In the secure northern bunker so unable to make an appearance to thank Carp for finding out what Arniel did!
Old Ranger Fan
Got to give Vegas credit. They could have folded when the Caps went ahead, but, they fought back to take a lead. Given their history Caps should take care of business tonight.
Slatsko Folkyerself
Eddie Eddie Eddie!
Where are, are you, are you?
Give us a sign, a sign, a sign….
This series could end right now for all I care if Vegas is going to continue to play like this. They look like the team they were expected to be prior to the start of the season. This is not hockey for hockey fans. Yuck.
Papa Bear
Oshie is a strong mfer

Luca Shias is not having a good night. Eek.
Wicky
The only thing positive about a loss here for Vegas would be it’s at home and the home crowd could give them a well deserved ovation
Old Ranger Fan
I really don’twant to see pictures of shirtless Putin and the Cup.
ilb2001
Oshi’s had a strong series too
Wicky
If Vegas had Thad, they’d be up by six goals already

Sbisa. Anyone wants to know, Apple corrects Sbisa to Shias. What is a Shias?
BBQ for 2,000 this weekend. Back to my Brisket 👍👍👍

At least Vegas booed Bettman

I’ll be in Rangertown in 2 months dropping off Miss Sioux 👍

Will Ovi survive the night in Vegas without being arrested? You can get 3-1
cooscoos
So nice that Sioux’s kid got into her safety school.

Is it October yet?

Oshie interview. Crazy good emotional. His Father has Alzheimer, I hope Tim is there with him.
CCCP
I’m so glad for Ovechkin. Haters can’t hate no more. He shut them down for good.
Headzo
So does Pee-air have a Crosby?

3 weeks till Kovy is a Ranger 😜
Hockey Sittoo
Happy for Trotz. He’s a classy guy. We loved him in Portland when he coached the AHL Portland Pirates. Happy for Ovi too. Makes me believe Hank will get there someday…🙄

Vegas needs Zucc!
Unleash the Beagle
Caps really good down low in their own Zone!
So smooth… so dumb.
Am I BANJing?
Ugotz!
Dumbass behind the back pass.
Finally the kid scores!
Not good for the home team!
Yeah, take the chance but don’t miss the net.
I would REALLY hate to see Putin drinking champagne from Cup on brudershaft with OVI….Phuuuu.
Is the Las Vegas Rangers. Did AV take over for Gallant before the final?
*It’s
Plenty of time.
There. I said it!
Well at least Vegas looked pretty good for a longer time than the last game before they handed the game to Washington.
I was gonna say it but I don’t think it will matter!
That phrase never works!

Square one
Could it be?

That is HUGE.

Ah Oh again!

They are their own worst enemy.
HE DOES IT AGAIN!
That was easy!
They leave the time bomb sitting all alone. No surprise.
Aaaaaannd…… Own. Worst. Enemy.
Despite all this hatred for everything American, I can bet that Ovi, Kuzi and Orli will be awarded by the “Hero of Russia” medals in Kremlin after that.
Tic.
You would think they’d just plant one guy on him and play 4 on 3 at this point. At least you know their best weapon is neutralized.
Absolutely stupid PK strategy. If they keep that up they deserve to lose.
I’d love to see a statistician separate all of Ovi’s goals by where they’re shot from. I wouldn’t be surprised if close to 70+% of his goals came from the top of the circle.
I am afraid that if I keep watching this, I will puke…and my wife just clean an apartment.
That was some pass by Backstrom
Good goal!
If that’s not a good goal then defensemen should just push the forward in front of the net into the goaltender every time a shot is taken. Perron tried to avoid Holtby by falling into the goal.
Good Goal!
Right call.
Sauced!!!
The Russians….
Vegas hasn’t had a lead in this series since the 17:27 mark of the first period in game 2.
That was a creepy commercial
Haha
Wow Vegas puck luck!
That’s their chance
Need to shoot that puck!
And they cash in
Goooooooal!
Tic
Toc
Great timing.
Tuching A
Let them play
Let them play
Plenty of Tics
Stinky glove!
Perron and that righty shot is valuable
Brooks Orpik attacking another Swedish enforcer in front of the net. The guy never changes.
Didn’t ovi tie a playoff record with that goal?

Now cover Ovechkin, Goddammit!
Dumb by Tatar.
What a game!
Sick of the Holtby commercials.
4th line again!
They’re gonna have to rename Las Vegas, Giveaway City.
Vegas just needs a good 10 minutes.
NHL 4th line!
Smith-Pelly scored a few crucial goals this offseason. This series especially
Next goal wins it!
Arniel’s job description didn’t come up during the Q&A.
Great keep by orpik
It’s Holtby v. Fleury here on out…
Almost forgot…
Screw oshie
Next goal is Huuuuuuge!
There ya go boys!
That could be it!
Terrible giveaway
More turnovers than Tasty Bakery.
Eller didn’t miss that one
That looked like a lundqvist leaker

Sbisa. Anyone wants to know, Apple corrects Sbisa to Shias. What is a Shias?
Oshie reminds me of Bill Guerin
Vegath lookth pretty Thad to me.
Tym
I think E3 takes a lot of Shias
Putin will try to get his name on the cup!
Every ref has a bulge in their pants. It’s where their whistles are.
Eli- Bettman will let him. For $500M. All goes to owners
Tackle football rest of way here
Lol, EV
One or two empty netters? What are the odds?
Leonsis?
Slatsko
Your post reminded me of one of the worst things ever…I had a drill sergeant in basic that had a really bad lisp.
It was brutal…hundreds of push ups, damn impossible to try and stifle the laughs.
Well at least it’s not sausage lips!
Ilb
It’s $650M now.
Ha! True
Oshie to bring the Cup home to the Fighting Sioux.
1 minute to go 👍👍👍
Vegas needs to win a Faceoff here
And the wife is in Begas. I could have been there
Ilb liking his own comments again, lmao
I know, Wicky. Trying to edit
What a game!!!
Has they even gotten a shot on net with the goalie pulled?
*Have
You’d be better off in Vegas, I’m not even sure where begas is but I don’t think they are having as important of a hockey game as Vegas is.
😉
Quit editing and watch the damn game!!
CONGRATS TO OH V!
Wow. The refs are influencing the game by not influencing the game.
That’s it fellas!
Go get the Cup, Sasha! And Conn Smythe Trophy too!
Crap it all.
Good for ovi!
B V they are so close
Crazy that they are there for a girls weekend. And the caps are going to win.
I wonder is Gersich will get his name on the Cup.
Yeah good for Ovey..
Makes me wish this was Hank and our boys who faced the expansion team.
What did I tell you? Congrats, Alex!
Big congrats to Ovi. It’s about time.
Great season by Vegas, well done kanighits!!
Hank and our boys never even had a ticket to the dance.
Yet another goalie is better than Hank 🙂
There might not be anymore hockey this season but at least there’s no more crappy hockey to watch. Silver linings….
Ok I’m done let the summer begin!
Is Oscar “can I play tonight, coach? Pleeeease” Lindberg on the ice?
Maybe the Knights pick up Taveras and win the whole thing next year 👍
A least we can confidently root against every single player on the craps from here on out.
Time to break out the golf clubs 😜
Can they do the draft tomorrow?
OV is the Conn Smyth!!!
No ex-Ranger with a cup this year.
Brooks Orpik, Conn Smythe winner.
Vegas fans are too knew they don’t know to BOOO Betman
No?! What!!?
Who does ovi hand the cup to first?
Backstrom?
NO MORE OVECHCANT!
Nicky!
Got that right
SCREW OSHIE!
James
It’s jay!!!
Hey, remember when we made fun of Orpik?
Yeah, some of us aren’t very smart
77 Rocks!
Beyond excited for him.
Duncan, Oshie, and Toews second best line ever for the Fighting Sioux.
All have won Championships as a Pro!!!
I miss the good ol’ days when they skated around the ice with the cup as they handed it off to everyone. Teams now suck.
Well, it’s a wrap. Hello Summer.
Oh yeah, FIRE SATHER!
LOL Screw Oshie’s name right on the Cup
I thought it was engraved on?
Have a good night Boyz!
Looking forward to the draft 👍👍
Finita La Comedia!
Engraved with a sharp Screw perhaps
BBQ for 2,000 this weekend. Back to my Brisket 👍👍👍

As far as Vegas… scrubs will be scrubs.
Ovi’s got the trotz.
Stars win Championships. OV, Holtby, Oshie, Backstrom, Carlson!
Lindbergh could NOT win a spot on the scrub team.
Ovi is hogging the cup! Not letting go of it for a sec! Even when other people hold the cup he still has his hand on it!
One of the most likeable athletes in all of sports.
Superior talent won it. Glad to see Ovechkin get one and the Oshie interview was overwhelming.
Geez look at Kathryn’s Tappens…..
However, it will take awhile for me to accept this score: Holtby 1 Lundqvist 0.
No more hockey games till October.
Let that sink in.
Holtby could have easily win the MVP. He was very good.
Hank has never been mentally strong.
2 weeks to the draft
the cup thing has left the station for Henrik
just glad the expansion team didn’t win the cup
congrats to the Caps. Hope Brooklyn doesn’t pick off some guys like Carlson and Grubauer
i’ll try to avoid Caps games at msg next year. I’m sure their fans will travel quite well this coming season.
Thank god thats over!! roll on draft day and then Tavares signing day!!
