Brutal ending for FL. Tie game and Tampa scores with .8 seconds left to win.

That's literally what we do intentionally.... to everyone. 

It’s helps that we are so deep that we can do that. Most teams aren’t.

FL should be called the "Paper Tigers" I hate calling them the Panthers.

0-22 on the PP. Average D and Average goalie.  Also, that’s 4 PP goals for Tampa this series

Tampa strikes first. 1-0

So, here's what was going on with the lines. The reason for the shuffle became apparent in the 3rd period. If you liked at the time on ice for the Aho and Trocheck thru the first 2 periods, it wasn't their usual. But, keep in mind, the Rangers only goal came from their 3rd line. The matchups were dictated by RBA and it was evident come the 3rd period when the top 2 lines worth of fresh legs started flying up and down the ice. I'd really like to see the TOI per player-per period.

Jesperi, Domi and Lorentz only had about 10 minutes on the ice last night. Staal's line led the way with the Trocheck and Aho line coming alive in the 3rd. The Rangers were gassed after having the Staal and Jesperi  lines wear on them for 40 minutes- that's why you saw a different team hit the ice in the third. And where were the Rangers top guys? Fox, Kreider, Panarin, Zibanejad... yeah, they got shut down.

It was insanity in PNC last night. Despite the score being 1-0 Rangers, I think the few NY fans in attendance were surprised just how much noise can come from fans who are behind on the scoreboard. The Aho goal blew the roof off the place, just as we were nail-biting, looking at the clock and wondering how soon RBA was gonna pull Raanta for an extra.

OT didn't start all that well, either. Took a lot of grinding to get out of the Rangers O-zone and Raanta was looking a little frazzled.

14 shots after 2 periods for the Canes wasn't going to win the game. Meanwhile, the Rangers had 23 thru the first 2 periods- well above their average. But, come the third period, Carolina put 10 shots on net, while holding NY to just 4. Carolina was fairly even in the face-off circle, but, again, dominated the 3rd period.

That's it- a tale of 2 games- the first 40 and the last 23, including OT. It was a wild night in PNC, folks. Glad I took today off...

Good write up!  My body hurts today after that game. Need a blow out winner Friday night.

So if I heard correctly, that was only New York’s third loss after leading going into the third.

They were previously 30 something - 1 - 1

Now they are 30 something - 1 - 2

Glorious gentlemen glorious. I got our game two thread and I’ll let it fly when it feels right Friday. 

Its starting to feel very special. 
 

Canessss Win!

Panthersfan69 I see you never gave up. Here’s to you.

This team doesn’t quit….so why should we quit on them.  

I believe in Rod. Leadership matters. He is getting better and THAT is what will win a championship.

Rangers have lost two like this in OT in the playoffs no less. They fought back and won. They will be there to play game 2.

The haven’t played the chess master known as Rod. 
 

@Stumpy give us a new meme of the man.

Say what you want but the Canes stole this one. But you gotta steal a couple to go all the way.

Nah. Rod just moved his dick a little, changed the lines, and we one.  
 

in all seriousness, these kind of games are demoralizing to the team that lost.

I saw Ian Cole shoot the puck and then I passed out as blood rushed to my penis suddenly. What happened?

The rush went to both heads.  I passed out and woke up with a Boner!

In rod we trust…..fugem all. Seek and Destroy. 
 

tonight should have proved to any other motherfuger that Rod Brind’Amour is the best fuging coach we’ve ever had and the best coach in the Carolinas. He made a playoff game adjustment that helped us win. 
 

Canes 1-0

I’ve stayed positive this entire series! I don’t want anyone to ever doubt this fuging team unde Rod and Raanta.  This team is the tits and we’re ready to fuging rock ‘n’ roll

You guys just have to believe man I’m telling y’all this team is it!

You guys know this game is probably going to go to overtime right? Do we get a second goal and then we hold them to just one?  This game is Canes hockey

Aho!!!! booooom!

here we come…

You negative folks are about to see the complete opposite of what we’ve been playing in the third.  I’ve seen this type of game before. Last year we played Florida the exact same way for two periods. Come the third we scored four goals.  Already know what’s going to happen because I’ve seen it a bunch before.  Get your fuging popcorn ready because the boys are about to light it up like it’s Christmas time. 

Holy fug people! We’re down by one goal entering the third. Have we played our best? Absolutely not! Will we play our best in the third 100%! Watch this poo we’re coming in hard and fast
