Lovett's Magnatones

Gallagher is living rent-free in NYR's head.

Way to be a tough guy Skjei. The Bruins will call in the morning.

Rangers giving the Habs all they can handle.

That's why a short series is so important.

MIA Stepan Zibanejad Kreider

I just knew the Rangers would get a PP.

Canollis?

Wasn't Smith-Pelly #21? I guess that's the number of the designated fat guy.

Got to think the Habs are due, no?

Best chance of the game and it goes to Mitchell!

Not much of a jump from the home team in the first ten minutes. They had two decent chances, but the Habs controlled the play.

No idea, but the fourth line has much less speed without Martinsen. Mitchell is definitely better on defense, though. Julien probably wants to rotate him in to keep these guys fresh. Emelin skated today in Brossard-that's a good update.

Nesterov reminds me of Yannick Weber in 2010

Some adjustments I would make: -Keep the top 3 lines for next game the same as OT. -Get Shaw off the first PP. They need someone in front of the net, that's the problem. They don't have another center that can do that, and if they bump Gallagher, who takes the faceoffs? At this point is McCarron on the PP any worse than Shaw's one goal? Which brings me to the next point. -Time for Dwight King to come out of the lineup. Fat Boy is out of shape and can't keep up with the play. Or do anything else, really. McCarron-Martinsen-Ott has a nice ring, like the commercials we have down here for personal injury lawyers. (I like the trap muzik ad for 411-Pain. "Put this number inside your brain, 1-800-411-PAIN). -That should be Nesterov's last game in a Habs jersey.

Not quite. After the fight with Weber I was feeling really good about things and poured a couple fingers of Buffalo Trace single barrel a buddy gave me as wedding present.

What a game!

Fourth line with King is really problematic.

Rags are on the mat. They need to take advantage before the phase of OT when the players are just too tired.

He was due! Due since 06!

I'd like to know why Andrew Shaw is signed for the next 5 years.

I don't want to add my usual Max boilerplate, but he was 1v1 (on the PK) in the offensive zone, even with the defender and instead of dropping his shoulder and going to the net he fired a 40 foot wrister. He's got 5 shots. Does anybody remember them?

Feels like OT to me.

Let's give the Rangers some credit though. This is what sucks about the 4/5 matchup, it's a second round matchup in the first round. Cripe's Radulov again. In the season we saw the best of Julien Hockey. Now we're seeing the worst.

He's out of shape

Time for Julien and Julien (BriesBois)
