In stark contrast, Lundqvist stops 38 shots (though admittedly, the NYR D had a lot to do with the fact that most of these shots were feeble, "throw it at the goal and hope for a rebound" shots.

Neutral zone turn overs are the bane for each team thus far - the team that can control the neutral zone has a heavy advantage.

Tied series boys, anything can happen here

Rangers are playing a very dangerous brand of hockey through 1 period. Over-pursuing offensively, trying to create something.. If Tampa is patient, NYR will fall right into the trap.

Boom. Truth be told, Lundqvist should have stopped that one. Clear view of the puck, no excuse. 1-0 Lightning.

Bob. yes -it's essentially a poor man's version of the East Coast final - the Ducks are a subpar Lightning team, and the Blackhawks are a subpar Ranger team.

It's cute and entertaining and all, but c'mon....we're watching the Stanley Cup right now... :p;)

Rudeboyelvis 05-24-2015 08:39 PM

In Lundqvist's defense, he didn't have a prayer there..2-0 Lightning

He had one game where he didn't give up 4+ goals, or leaked the winner. So, besides that ONE GAME...Yes he is a sieve. We should still be playing 1-1 cuz he should have stopped Stamkos' goal. There isn't a goalie in the NHL that wouldn't have stopped that shot.

So......Sieve, Colander, overfull Depends....whatever analogy works for you, he leaks vociferously - and has cost your team the opportunity, on 2 occasions, to close this out.

They need to play back and let the game come to them. They forced too much tonight and got pinched. And they need a new goalie. He killed you again tonight, and now you are 1 and done. In Tampa. Oooofffff...

I hope you're right. But the fact of the matter is, the Garden ice was HORRENDOUS last night. Puck bouncing all over the place. Which gave the team that scored first a huge advantage.

Agree - If the Rangers can get back to playing the trap-style neutral zone D, and take away the middle of the ice from Tampa's O, they can win. They were full out over pursuing from the drop of the puck last night and it burnt them.

Have ended my period of mourning, and intentionally put on a hockey game for the first time in almost two weeks
A few years back during the strike, I was dying for hockey and actually put on a college game just to get my fix.

Turned that game off last night when it was 3-0 . Must have been crazy finish

yeah, you never want to do that. chi scored two goals after pulling crawford late, to get into OT.
things can change like that. i didn't catch much after the second period tho, because a huge thunderstorm came thru and kept killing the sat signal.
i told tony 'well, it's been fun' before going to sleep, in case we died during the night. it got really rough.
