Woohooo!  I heard you cheering last night, @yellowrose .  The Stars tied the series last night.  Hope you arrived safely at your destination. 

Yankees are in Florida for game 3 of the ECF. Series is tied 1-1. 

Vesey is week to week after a hit from Lomberg. 

Today's game is 3:00 eastern, ABC.

Well, against all odds and not a great game, the Rangers won in ot. Why ? Igor!  Where has Panarin, Mika, and  Kreids been?   
The pp has been cold.

The Panthers dominated and did not win. How does that happen?   

They have to play better, smarter.....

See ya Tuesday.

Perfect assessment of your game @dmod nj !  I was yelling at the TV for most of the game as the Rangers were seemingly ALWAYS just a half step too slow to the puck, always just missing connections while a Panther was right there.  I also think that they fortunately realized rather late in the game that you cannot score if you don't put shots on net.  The PP where they had excellent zone time but spent it passing the puck around was especially frustrating.

Fortunately the fates were smiling on them and they won a game they should have lost.  I hope they are a lot more aggressive in games to follow.  

I really hope we get a Rangers/Stars final.  A Florida/Edmonton matchup would consign me to a fate worse than death......watching the Dead Sox.

Thanks @781Florist .   I was shocked watching that game...the whole game, just not the ending.  

They really need to up their game, play well, and those players I mentioned MUST step up their play. 

LOL I did laugh at Dead Sox.   My son works with lots of Sox fans, and they are right there with you complaining every day!  My son doesn't follow baseball, so he just listens and nods. lol lol   

Much good luck to the Stars tonight.  @yellowrose  I hope you can see the game!   No worries, we're holding down the fort cheering your boys on.

Congrats to the Stars and their fans last night with a win! 

@yellowrose 

Tonight, the Rangers play game 4 in Florida. Rangers are up 2-1.  

I hope Panarin, Kreids, Mika and others step it up.  I hope they make it an easier game for Igor.  

I hope Foxy can rest his leg tonight.   He's playing on 1 1/2 legs. lol 

There are Maaloxitinis and Tumaritas for all to enjoy.

Save the antacids for me, please. LOL   I honestly get agita watching my boys.

For the 3rd straight game, the game went to ot. The Rangers lost.  Series is tied 2-2. 

Igor is not human.  He was spectacular! 

Rangers dominated the 1st and were outplayed the rest of the game.   

I thought that should have been a penalty shot instead of just a penalty in ot.

Mika, Panarin, and Kreider are still missing.

The officiating continues to be INCONSISTENT and HORRIBLE.   I'm biased. I've ALWAYS posted that here. So, tell me, if you watched, what do you think about the officiating?  I can take it. LOL   Be honest. lol 

While I'm writing this, my gf texted me..... "Refs missing 3 calls on the Panthers in a 10 second stretch at the end of the 3rd, Mika taken down, Kakko tripped, Trouba punched,  but Wheeler's hook they call??????   WT Heck!   This doesn't count all the missed calls throughout the game." 

I did, however, enjoy seeing Kreids throw Tkachuck's mouthpiece into the crowd. lol   I know, not cool, but it did make me LOL! 

See you Thursday back at MSG.

@redhead handbag queen  I forgot to post about Angel! TY for reminding me.  LOL YES, please take some of the NHL officials with him!    

The Rangers DID NOT play to their potential. The loss is on them, but the inconsistent officiating makes me crazy! lol
