Haven't been watching due to the bad cold/flu I've had the last few days. Looking at the box scores it seems pretty likely that the Strome and Chytil injuries have crippled the Rangers at the worst possible time. Hopefully both are ready to go all out for game 6. If the kid line is not playing top of their game the season is over.
Put Panarin on the first with Mika and Kreider. Give kids 2nd line minutes. 4th line Motte — Rooney — Goodrow, that’s a really strong defensive line and you have 2 people in that line that can take face offs.
Good luck tonight! I love Game 6's where the team down 3-2 has home ice for a potential Game 7. Just makes it feel do or die for both sides. Should be intense!
oh and the Yankee wankfest ? smh its LITERALLY do ro die for only one team... although yes... the home team doesnt want g7
Scratching Kakko to play Dryden fucking Hunt and an unhealthy Ryan Strome sure is a decision our coach just made. Kakko might've played his last game as a Ranger on Thursday.
You have to go with the guys you think can help you win. Obviously Kakko wasn't showing up for him the last week or so.
The logic was, according to Vince Mercogliano, is that Gallant wanted more speech and physicality on the forecheck.
