I very rarely will ever say this, and it’s already making me throw up in my mouth a little, but just for tonight…

LET’S GO RANGERS

I want the extra rest. Then I hope NJ wins game 7. 

Meier just had 2/3’s of an open net and missed.

The FIX was in. 

After the 1st period, the Referees took it upon themselves to proceed to swallow their whistles for one side and call penalties for the other.

Rags got away with murder a ton including Shesterkin who INTERFERED with a Devils player on TWO separate occasions with no call. 

 

It was only until the Rags were firmly in control that the Refs proceeded to call Penalties per usual.

 

This was an absolute farce of a game by the on-ice officials.

If someone had told me there was a conspiracy by the NHL, ESPN, and ABC to maximize profits by ensuring there's a Game 7, I'd believe that person.

You are talking to the home team of all home teams that get screwed by the refs.

Then hopefully my Devils rebound and get it done on Monday night so the refs have no choice but to call a Canes/Devils Playoff Series fair since the NY buttmonkeys won't be there anymore.

I missed the latter half of the game. How did Shesterkin interfere?

I was too angry at the game to watch it anymore so I probably missed that.

I only got this info for those who chose to continue to watch that farce.

they didn't say how he interfered.   Just that he did so it could be anything from him shoving a Devils player (Probably this) or just "accidentally on purpose" getting in the way that had zero to with making save/playing the puck.

I didn't see any of the game, but couldn't help but notice when I checked in on The Score that the Rags had 4 power plays before a penalty was ever called on them. And 3 of those were in the first.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
