Classic Miller, being the offensive defensemen he is. Mika straight up taking the puck from O-stagnant-kin was the key to that play tho, along with him knowing Miller was back behind them and open.
“The star that makes your face do that “ HAS to be a segment every episode lol, & you guys should definitely do more of these throughout the playoffs with ALL teams
I really like this video format! I'm a Canadian living in NZ right now and it has been difficult to stay up to date with everything but these videos and the podcasts are awesome for me! Thank you
Watch the Rempe hit in slow motion. Both feet were on the ground at time of contact. A lot of people say it was charging, intent to injure blah blah blah.. But it wasn't *that* bad.
The reason why the Rangers didn't win the cup 2 years ago is because they played 2 straight game 7 series in a row and they were tired by the end of the Lightning series.
Commendable. Rather a quick honorable death from a professional executioner than drag it out to game 7 against a more evenly matched team lol. Should’ve been Flyers or Penguins, which definitely would’ve gone to Game 6 or 7.
as a Caps fan it's unfortunate but expected, how Ovie disappeared after having a great March and early April does show he is slowing down for sure, but also holy crap we miss having Backstrom and even Kuznetsov, Lindgren did alright (think Jets would have loved that kinda performance ) but with out ANY scoring it's not even a factor at this point
Even as a Capitals fan this was the expected outcome, I predicted Rangers in 5 assuming Lindgren would steal one because I had seen him steal a lot of games over the season. The Rangers are just better from top to bottom. The Rangers likely would have won in 4 even if the Caps were healthy, which they weren’t. It was the worst I’d ever seen Ovechkin play, and the old guard in general didn’t perform well outside of Wilson. The positive I’ll take is some young guys performed admirably. Lapierre shined, Alexeyev stepped up big on the back end. All this being said I just don’t believe in the Rangers going all the way. They certainly could, but even though the Caps got swept I wasn’t impressed with the Rangers at even strength. We know they have stellar special teams but now they’re facing a team that actually outperformed them on special teams in the regular season and won’t be as forgiving as the Caps. I do think the Canes win the series and then lose to Florida in the ECF.
We’re all worried about Carolina, but going off our last regular season game and performance the last few months, I’m confident we’ll beat them in under 7. 1st period of our last game had me SHOOK, but we came back 2nd period adjusted to their play style and won, albeit 1-0 lol
It’s going to be a crazy series for sure, but we have a totally different goalie than the Islanders did lol. Also I don’t recall the Rangers losing more than 2 in a row this season, and the rare times if we did, we furiously came back with vengeance lol.
@@dylanhealy8126 Yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Rangers beat the Hurricanes, they’re a very good team. I would just say if I was forced to bet money on the series I’d put it on Carolina. Two very good teams that are pretty evenly matched. The prize for whoever wins is likely to play Florida, who just seem monstrous right now.
hey boys, solid video but the mic picks up every time you hit the table/catches your arm movements when you emote. Could be worth getting boom arms for the mics!
Rust vs Rest: IMO i find that if the 'rest' team gets 5+ days off they DO often have rust in game 1 but the longer the series goes the more that rest starts to help...but the NYR have the perfect mix of just a couple (3 or 4?) days off AND plenty of time to scout the opponent they knew they'd end up with...id say 3days rest is the ideal balance, only want it longer if u have injuries u want to recover from etc
LGR! Its a DISGRACE that Vegas still has us at +750 and with SIX teams ranked higher than us as potential cup winners (and yes i did immediately put 20$ - not a big gambler at all - down on the Rangers to win the cup at +750 so i can celebrate with 150$ when we win lol)
aside from whatever he's doing, Rempe's presence must play a huge factor in other team's gameplan/psychology. Will be really curious to see how that affects the canes in what should be a fairly evenly matched series
I think that'll depend entirely on Chytil. I can't help but feel like he's going to return to the lineup vs the Canes and someone has to go. I hope it isn't game 1. I really want to see the 4th line in action vs Carolina before messing with the lines.
Because he brought hockey to hockey. Hits, fights. They are all part of hockey. Rempe is saving hockey in that regard and bringing lots of fans to the arenas. NHL needs more Rempes.
I like Rempe. But if Chytil is healthy and Carolina isn’t gooning it up. Then Chytil should replace Rempe and go top line and Roslovic to the 3rd or 4th.
see I think the craziest thing is that the worst team kept all the games to a one to 2 goal game (except game one) while having 2 main d men injured and then losing 2 more later in the series so even though we got swept I still think they put up a crazy fight all we needed was just to hit the net LMAO too many ez goals missed
The Caps just lived up to their regular season stats.. nothing new.. you really can't be surprised at all.. Most thought this was the least interesting series of any..
Washington is on their way to a full rebuild. Ovi might force the GM to try to hang on for an extra year or 2 but it's over for the Caps this generation. I think Ovi would retire if it wasn't for Gretzky's record he's chasing.
Vegas/the MSM is disrespecting the NYR harrrrrd, case & point: We won the Presidents Trophy (curses arent real ESP when it comes to NYR last 3 PT's we won ended in a cup final, a cup win and one game 7 goal away from ANOTHER finals appearance) - we were the only team to sweep rnd 1 - we had NO injuries or players looking out of sorts annnnnnd: Vegas has us at +750 as the SIXTH ranked team to win it RIGHT NOW...that is WILD (yes i placed a bet lol) i was expecting 3 to 1 odds not 7.5 to 1 odds but hey ill take it, but the Media is just as bad i think Sportsnet had 'should we start to consider NYR a REAL Cup Contender?!' as a title for a RU-vid vid they put out a day or two ago, after the sweep...the disrespect is NUTS...but thats fine....we'll win AND ill take Vegas' money lol
I don't know any Rangers fans who dislike Rempe or his style, that just seems to come from the typical Twitter whiners who get their panties in a bunch over anything vaguely physical.
