Habs making the Rangers look like a legitimate Stanely Cup team, which is pretty impressive. I'll give them that.

I'd say Rangers are a legit stanley team at this point. Plus they got Henrik.

 

[Roflobear]

That was a wild period to say the least

 

[cube444]

Sucks the Habs lost Price, but they need to get their shit together, they could still win without him, no reason to collapse like this.

Without Price they have no chance. They've only mustered 3 goals in a little over 2 games so far.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

:lol :lol :lol

That moral high ground Red likes to stand on is looking a lot lower these days.

The fact that the Habs don't give much to stand on paired with the homophobic slurs didn't give him much to work with anyways.

 

[Mentok]

The Rangers had more shots on the Habs during the Habs PP. Yeah I'd say it doesn't matter who's in net, this team has checked out. Therrien's dump and chase just isn't working. It's like no one has the stamina to continue anymore.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

*sigh*

I throw in my towel as a Habs fan. I Give up. Go Rangers.

They are playing the worst I've ever seen them play.

 

[zroid]

I think what this tells us is Habs can only win series when they lack home ice.

Or something about Carey Price, I dunno.

Team loses team MVP and one of the best goalies in the world and is playing differently now. What a shocker, you think the Rangers would be playing like this if Lunqvist went down?

Talbot >>>> Lundqvist

Shortest time on the bandwagon for a bandwagoner in this thread ever?

Wait, did I miss something? The Habs used slurs or he did?

Hank stole game 2, and Habs have played some of their worst hockey all season in 3 of the other 4 periods. Take that as you will.

 

[Sanjuro]

Talbot >>>> Lundqvist

Pretty much. Henrik is just a band aid for the time being.

 

[Mr.Green]

You got quite the fan-club Red.

Well, I was a fan before i deeped myself in this thread. Well I guess you can say.. theres is always next year..?

You gotta give the Rags more credit. They're forcing the Habs to make mistakes.

I believe in Red_Man.

 

[Frank Lemon]

Roenick is the worst

 

[MacAttack]

I'll take it as this:

Rangers look every bit as good as what the Kings and Hawks have shown thus far.

 

[Animal]

There is no denying Rangers have played better hockey than Habs more often than not in this series.

 

[TheStruggler]

lmao love don

 

[richiek]

LOL, Red is really salty tonight.

 

[Red_Man]

You got quite the fan-club Red.

It brings me such joy that most of these guys I have blocked continue to waste what limited mental and emotional energy they have on me.

You gotta give the Rags more credit. They're forcing the Habs to make mistakes.

For sure, their speed fucked with them and that's on Therrien and his coaching staff for not being properly prepared. That being said, Habs are playing some of their worst hockey, and Lunqvist is the main reason they are where they are now. I think they'll get exposed against LA / CHI, I'll gladly eat crow if they don't though. I don't have any particular ill will towards NY, I joked about not wanting McDonagh to get far at the beginning but I'm pretty neutral to the team aside from Carcillo.

 

[Roflobear]

Goal by Hags.

Still blown away by that save by Gorges though

 

[geeko]

Habs are gonna get swept, aren't they?

 

[MetatronM]

Playoffs are rad. Fun crazy period.

I have to say, the Habs came onto the ice in the opening festivities looking like a defeated team. I noticed it about their body language immediately, and they were very late in coming out (only like 20 seconds before the buzzer).

We'll see if they get some jump in the second. Still just a 1 goal game, and they had some chances that they just flat out missed shots on.

The Rangers have been playing with FIRE for the last 5 1/3 games. Love it.

 

[MacAttack]

As soon as Price went down, it was over for them. That's gotta put some doubt in the players minds.

Absolutely agree, as good as the Rangers have been playing the Habs have been laying in a stinker. 4 shots on goal with only 1 real scoring attempt is not the sign of a hungry team.

 

[Coldnoodle]

This Pizzo guy looks like a douche.

 

[RC]

Where's Andi, and who's this fool?

I can only hope we can sustain the goodness to move to the big game.

I legit laugh my ass off every time I see this gif. Every time.

Hahaha

 

[Animal]

Gold.

 

[Mr.Green]

Sure that's a terrible loss but they should play twice as hard to compensate.

They've simply given up it seems.

 

[Red_Man]

Team looks exactly like they did against Ottawa in that game 5 last year.

Sure that's a terrible loss but they should play twice as hard to compensate.

They've simply given up it seems.

Gorges diving in the net to make the save is a pretty obvious case of them not having confidence in Tokarski.

you sound like a cubs fan

 

[Coldnoodle]

Weaver playing goalie :lol

 

[RangersFan]

damn it

 

[Sanjuro]

Henrik doing his best Rask impression.

 

[zroid]

game on?

 

[MacAttack]

Gotta assume players are giving everything they have every playoff game. You can't expect them to just hit an extra gear because Price got hurt. If anything I would expect that trying to compensate for such an injury might hurt them in other areas.

 

[Solo]

hold on to le buts

 

[Mr.Green]

So Lundqvist is human after all!

 

[Kifimbo]

How huge is this ?

 

[Coldnoodle]

Weak.

 

[RangersFan]

of course it comes after the missed hook on poo

 

[zroid]

tsk spraying the camera. that's an unsportsmanlike penalty against the fans.

Habs look like they're giving everything they have to you?
