Horrible turnover

Horrible turnover

Just watched the replay, Bicks turns it over (horribly) then goes off for a change. #JustThingsYouDoWhenYouGetPaidFourMillionAYear

Hopefully Andersen falls apart now...

If they had lost this game it would've had a pretty awful effect on him, but his team didn't take long to pick him up which probably saved his confidence.

[Armourboy]

If Anaheim would just play their game this wouldn't even be a contest. I have never understood why players of all professional sports let off the throttle especially when history shows you what happens every time.

Them Rangers just won't go away in these playoffs

Tampa forgot how to defense jesus that 4th goal was ugly. Hard to bet against the Rangers in game 7 here, they seem to always pull it out these last 2 years

Rangers are beasts in game 7's. Some stats before the game 7 against the Capitals:

0.80 goals against average for Henrik Lundqvist in his last five Game 7s. The only goalie to ever win five straight Game 7s has stopped 144 of 148 shots during the streak.

6 Rangers wins — and no losses — in Game 7s at the Garden.

13-3 Rangers record in their last 16 games in which they faced elimination.

[Nazrark]

TSN has them pegged at 15-3 for elimination games. The never say die team. Perhaps AV finally gets a cup. Depends on how beat up the WCF winner is.

[Garbles]

29 - 19 - 88
20 - 91 - 81
10 - 80 - 86
11 - 16 - 65

This is what....im guessing will be the Hawks lines tonight, at least at the start of the game. Im not sure where else you can put Bickell, the only chance he has of being effective is with Kane and Toews, just get to the front of the net and one of them will find you. Its not like they could really healthy scratch him, who would they put in, Versteeg? The guy literally trips over his own feet and turns the puck over in our own zone, no thanks.

This game could get really interesting, backs to the wall.. its do or die

Bishop letting in some seriously soft goals too. Has been the case for him all along, he's a big guy and blocks a lot of the net but a pure goaltender he is not.

[Zeoni]

god Paul Romanak (sp?) is the worst fucking announcer they have on Sportsnet. According to him, Hossa = Richards and Etem = Kruger. I get making a mistake every once and awhile but this guy is a moron.

Go Hawks!

[Deleted]

rofl injured and then hit by a slap shot when he finally managed to get up, that is just comedy gold. actually laughed out loud

[Stommped]

I honestly think you do have to scratch Bicks at this point. The hits are nice but it's not like they are actually creating any offense. 20-19-88 looked great so lets try 23-91-81 for line 2, maybe the shakeup will help Hossa because he hasn't much room this series to do anything.

Two game 7s in the conference finals! Yay for everyone, when was the last time this happened?

[Zeoni]

Hossa is injured apparently

2000, New Jersey beat Philly 4-3 and Dallas defeated Colorado 4-3 I believe!

[Nazrark]

Stammer and Nash both have a big night. The goalies are a little porous. Hank goes on a tirade after the game because it is never his fault when the game goes south. Tampa wins.

That's my prediction for the night.

[Zeoni]

Rangers 2-1 obviously

[Blueobelisk]

Why don't they get really overweight goalies?

Anyway, I'm here rooting for Rangers sooooo. *thread is quieter than I thought it'd be*

[Deleted]

So now tampa has more goals than rangers got shots on goal. lol
Jesus rangers really need to create some offense.

I mean it really looks to me like rangers think they can win a game by it ending in 0-0.
