GDT: ECSF: Game 5 - New York Rangers vs Carolina Hurricanes, 7pm ET, ESPN

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Look at this Rangers team….they’ve got the best forward, best defenseman, and best goaltender in this series zero debate about it.

This would be true against almost any opponent… the Rangers are a really good team.

 

[iamitter]

Why would you even complain about that? Super blatant.

I think cause the same play occured in the opposite direction like 5 seconds earlier. It was a penalty but but so was the other.

Why would you even complain about that? Super blatant.

Goodrow was probably complaining about the missed trip earlier in the shift, or maybe the too many men, or the cross check to zib. Who knows?

 

[Ghost of Murph]

Obvious trip. I would say NYR need to be more disciplined but given the PP of the Canes, whatever

 

[Kane One]

Why would you even complain about that? Super blatant.

Just as blatant as the missed trip by Carolina right before.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

A shutout would be a poetic end to this series.

Yeah and honestly that hasn't been the difference. I could see goaltenders being the argument or special teams / coaching, but I don't think elite talent has been the difference maker elsewhere.

 

[mm11]

rangers used their competitive advantage to build a very strong team. What can you do.

 

[BrockLobster]

I think their goaltending is their weakest link. Canes have carried play for the majority of this series but can't get saves.

Or goals

Now would be an excellent time for the PP to get that one back.

Now would be an excellent time for the PP to get that one back.

at this point I think the canes pp will be happy just to not let another one in.

 

[Il Stugotz]

Big break for the Rangers to start the period on the PK with fresh ice

 

[Matt Rentfree]

I don't know why it's taken me so many years to see , but Peter Laviolette looks more like Fred Flintstone than any other human I have ever seen.

If I ever meet him, I am going to get him to scream "Willlllllll-muhh!"

Clearly you have never met my dad.

 

[MattMartin]

Carolina 3 straight PP's in the second I see. The only way the refs can help more is throw the puck in the net for them.

 

[Lt Dan]

Clearly you have never met my dad.

Does he have a boss named Mr Slate?

Gotcha. Just walked into the room after making dinner and saw the trip. Was a “how entitled are you?” Moment without that context.

He's 99.

Every penalty they've called tonight has been legit, maybe one kinda weak one. The issue is they're not calling penalties outside of the puck carrier. Trip someone about to receive a pass? Totally fine.

I actually think they've been consistent, despite other rangers fans saying otherwise. They've not been fair, but you should just not expect penalties unless the person getting infracted upon has the puck and is about to shoot. To me, that's a weird standard.

I will never unsee this.

Thank you very much faux-Gary Sinese

I’m a “call every game the same regardless of teams/time of year” type, because when they don’t, there’s always some BS call that’s held to a lesser standard that unbalances the game.

stiffling D, not all Igor here

 

[Banjo Cat]

Turned it over twice and almost a giveaway.

Full credit to the Rangers though. They don't give them much space and are forcing them to make mistakes.

Woooooooooo. There we go Canes.

 

[Vinh]

Staal looking like Rick Nash out here.

 

[StrangeVision]

Nice goal.
