So before the games CBC shows Just For Laughs Gags. They showed this one about a cop pretending he was shot, and a dozen other cops swarming in on the prank victim.

Damn. That would not fly in a lot of places, lol.

 

[MetatronM]

Ha, the Rangers came out for warmups to the Entourage theme song.

Whatever works, I guess.

Third line that has a combined one goal this post season, and it was an empty netter.

 

[MetatronM]

Bishop left warm ups early after taking a shot to the groin.

Double agent Rangers South at work?

Bishop must have forgot to pack his horseshoe on the flight to New York.

 

[~Kinggi~]

COME ON RANGERS!

 

[ZeroGravity]

Better get the first goal or this could be a long night.

 

[MetatronM]

Well we certainly haven't learned our lesson in our own end yet.

 

[zroid]

Ricky Hockey is going to score some goals

 

[ZeroGravity]

FUCKING CARLE

 

[MetatronM]

Marty is back to his usual self, I see.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Marty is back to his usual self, I see.

As is Carle. Let's see which one costs their team the game tonight.

 

[MetatronM]

Nice work, Bolts.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Wow that was as borderline a non too many men as you get.

 

[Red_Man]

Tampa's PK is some kind of awful right now

 

[ZeroGravity]

Paquette hurt and that didn't look good. Down to ten forwards now.

 

[MetatronM]

Wow that was as borderline a non too many men as you get.

Probably wouldn't have been called if Kucherov hadn't touched it RIGHT away.

Also sounds like Paquette is gone. So Tampa is basically down to 3 lines+1.

 

[PeregrinSe7en]

So the Hawks are officially Harder Than Calgary.

well hey if this is how the ducks are gonna play...

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I really like That Rangers Colour of Blue.

 

[MetatronM]

That was dumb, Marc. Go in the box and think about what you've done.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Rangers look like they've figured out our PP.

 

[richiek]

The movie that saved the Rangers.

 

[Killing_Joke]

Looking good so far.

 

[MetatronM]

That third line is buzzing.

 

[MetatronM]

Fourth line doing work too.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Forget scoring a goal, how about Callahan just clear a fucking puck.

 

[Red_Man]

Some guy three rows from the glass is wearing a Hawks Kane jersey. Really man? You get those seats and you wear that?

 

[ZeroGravity]

You know things are bad when Cooper actually uses a timeout. He never does it unless it's the end of a game.

 

[RangersFan]

finally a call. lots of slashing, clutching and holding with no calls.

 

[MetatronM]

Aside from a couple of good (missed) chances for the Lightning early on, this has been a New York Rangers sort of game so far.

Doesn't mean anything so long as the score is 0-0, though.

 

[Red_Man]

Is Steve Kouleas still on TSN for anyone who has cable? Just noticed it was missing from his Twitter account, maybe he got bounced after the Sportsnet deal. Shows how little anyone cares about him that I'm just noticing this now.

 

[emrober5]

Lightning look like garbage right now, will be lucky to get out of the period scoreless

He's gone from TSN. Apparently he left (or was fired?) after a monetary dispute.

 

[zroid]

where my goals at

 

[ZeroGravity]

What a shitshow this period has been.

Hardcore hockey talk was fun, that's hockey 2Nite was stupid most of the time.

 

[MetatronM]

We're being too obvious right now. Too easy for the Lightning to defend.


Bolts somehow avoided a too many men just now.


EDIT: JT Miller was shaken up on that hit on the boards. He was sort of slumped over right away.

 

[Red_Man]

Oh really? I completely missed that, weird issue for him to leave over its not like he's worth Duthie or McKenzie kind of money.

He was always too jacked up for me, seemed like he did a few lines in his office before he went on air every night

 

[RangersFan]

owned possession, no shots...i have a bad feeling about this one.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Somehow the Rangers only had six shots in that period. Felt like they should have had 60.

 

[zroid]

Tampa didn't register a single shot attempt in the last 9 minutes. That's... bad

 

[Killing_Joke]

Probably the best i seen the defense this series. Now get some damn shots.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Our bottom six is a complete dumpster fire. They get pinned in the defensive zone every shift. There's no goddamn way Drouin or Namestnikov would be worse out there.

 

[MetatronM]

That was the first period in this series in which no goals were scored since the first period of Game 1.

 

[zroid]

I guess Kessel is switching to the fluffy doughnuts from the cake type doughnuts

 

[Stasis]

That was the first period in this series in which no goals were scored since the first period of Game 1.

I'd be OK with a 2-1 win, I don't mind low goals =P

 

[RangersFan]

I'd be OK with a 2-1 win, I don't mind low goals =P

In order to even get to 2-1, the Rangers have to you know, shoot...

 

[MetatronM]

Style points.

 

[Stasis]

Damn, dat giveaway.

Keith needs to... yandle that one better.

I'll see myself out.
