Igor Shesterkin turned away 37 shots, Chris Kreider scored two goals, and the New York Rangers eliminated the Carolina Hurricanes 6-2 in Game 7 to advance to the Eastern Conference Final.
Fox is as snake and sandbagged the Hurricanes, Panarin turned down more money to play in NYC... hardly a retool. More so a big market makeover. Shesterkin is for real tho.
@@darkk-kj9je Not sure why you commented this lol. I am not comparing him to anyone. Besides everyone already know McDavid and Draisaitl is the best duo in league and McDavid is the best player.
@@jakearsenta2144 they haven’t played in almost two weeks, and are rusty while the rangers played a few days ago. i still bet tampa can beat them though, just maybe not like they did to the panthers
I said before game started Canes continue taking STUPID penalties would be their downfall and it was. They just were a team that did/could not learn. I see them not getting past 2nd round for the continuing future. They just don't have it in them. Maybe next year Rod will sit the players on the bench for most of the game if they take stupid penalties. Maybe then they will get the message. Tampa will probably lose 1st game because they will be rusty.
In playoff hockey, a team will only go as far as its goaltender will take them. The team who has the goalie with the hot hand is usually the team to beat. The Igor we expected to see in net was exactly what we got in this series. I don't think I have seen him as relaxed in any game as he was in game 7 tonight. Calm, cool and collected. Never got rattled. I like our chances against Tampa. LGR!!!
Nah Bolts in 4. Tampa dominates the hockey world. We are the new center of the universe. Screw everyone else, we will ALWAYS be on top! GO BOLTS!!! WE WILL WIN THE CUP EVERY YEAR NOW VERY EASILY!
The Rangers came back from 3-1 against the Penguins and 2-0 against the Canes. There's no quitting with this squad and they've earned their trip to the conference finals. Who knows, this just might be the New York team that defeats the Bolts. Best of Luck!
I'm really proud of this Rangers team to keep battling every game and make it this far. I feel if they manage to make it past Tampa, they have a very good chance against whoever comes out on top in the West. Great series, Carolina! Thanks for seven awesome games of playoff hockey!
Thanks for an amazing year Carolina, high expectations for the next. Even if Carolina did make it to the eastern finals they would stand no chance against Vasilevskiy seeing how much they struggled against Shesterkin. I hope the Rangers put up a good fight because the Lightning winning again is the last thing I wanna see this year.
Trouba's hit on Jarvis knocking him out the game was the play of the game. There must have been 12 people on the Carolina bench that were focused on Jarvis after he finally crawled his way back to the bench and collapsed on the floor. The concern that play and its aftermath sent throughout the Carolina lineup was impactful.
Thanks, and honestly I thought we could handle Boston (not easy as they have a few fearsome game-changer individuals which the Canes lack) but was happy we got the Canes cuz I thought they were way overrated. I think our Rangers even overrated them as well. The Rangers have some awesome talent spread out all over the place with that third line of kids just getting their mojo.
I am llive in Russia and match was and 7 am, but I not checked flash score and watched this video, rangers let's gooooo!!!!! It's really good morning!!!
Translating this hardly readable comment: I live in Russia and Game 7 took place at 7 AM, but I didn't check Flashscore, I watched this video instead, Rangers, let's gooo! It's a really good morning!
That's what happens when you can't win on the road, Carolina. All the Rangers had to do was take one game in your house and bye-bye. Rangers, what a team, eh?? Two 7 game series wins in your pocket...good luck with the Bolts!! ✌🏾✌🏾
Carolina didnt play super inspired hockey. their special teams looked flat, and they couldn't get flow in the offensive zone when needed. Sure, they out shot the rangers, but the Rangers scoring opportunities in this and other games were superior imo. Still a young team so plenty of time to build off this season and improve.
@@johnathanpatrick6118 and to expound further, I thought carolina would get more quality given how well play played the bruins in the RS and playoffs. Perhaps this is a testament to the rangers solid blueline.
@@DougJacobson2I tell you what, the penalties they took and defensive miscues they had certainly didn't aid their cause. In my head I thought if the Rangers scored first the 'Canes were done-zo. There's no way Igor Shesterkin was letting them back in.
With the Rangers winning game 7, it would ensure teams from Tampa and New York would face off against each other in the conference finals for the third consecutive season.
To be honest, we have four very exciting team here. They have great offense, the goalies should make the difference. I think NY or Tampa will win the final because of that. For Oilers/Avs, I really don't know what gonna happen. If Smith is good, Oilers have their chances, but if he s sloppy, they won't make it, because nobody provide offense for Edmonton except for McDavid, Draisaitl, Kane ans Hyman.
Nothing personal against the Rangers (ok, maybe a little personal), but I really want the cup winner to come out of the West this year. Would love if it were the Avs but I’d be happy for either.
We had no place being here they said, we’d get beat by Pittsburgh they said, Carolina would sweep us and have an easy series they said. It’s gone awfully quiet in the comment section from the haters, and it’s such a beautiful silence. There’s nothing better in the world of professional sports than shutting the doubters and haters up! And the boys did that... I’d honestly pay every bit of money in my bank account just to see the look on their faces at the final horn 😂 stay salty guys, you give us a great laugh.... there’s no quit in New York, LGR!
Bolts fan.... Really happy for your Rangers getting it together. Obviously hoping your trip ends here, but mostly hoping for a really good, balanced series and I think that's what we're gonna get. Best of luck!
Imagine your team playing not one but TWO teams without starting goalies lol. Fairly lucky turn of events, barely made it past both of em buttttt last I checked bolts have their starting and he's playing well so.... yeah, gl.
@@paulthompson8793 And yet canes fans still said they would beat us KNOWING they didn’t have a starting goalie in net lol. They are only making that excuse now because they lost.
Oh yes !! What a series!! One round closer to my dream Stanley Cup finals matchup and to present the most iconic trophy in sports on the ice getting cheers from all my fans out there! - Gary!
Say what you want about my ranguhz but we were down in 2 straight series and came back to win them! On to tampa, its gonna be tough but they've already exceeded my expectations for this year
People forget the rangers were basically a .500 team the past 5-6 years. If you told me before the start of the season that the rangers would be in a position to win the metro or make the cup, I would’ve bet a lot of money against you lol Being one of the youngest teams in the league (I think we avg being 26-27 years old), we exceeded all expectations. Gallant and Drury deserve a lot of credit for what they’ve done with the coaching, development and off-season/deadline moves. The vatrano and Copp deals look to be the smartest of the deadline and who the hell would’ve thought that lol the team will need to tighten up against Tampa. Our game plan relies so much on Shesty, I’m praying our defense can make it easier for him but we HAVE to win face offs. We are one of the worst in the league lol the difference maker this upcoming series will 100% be special teams. PP needs to stay hot and our key PK guys need to stay healthy. Best of luck to the remaining teams but with that being said, Let’s Go Rangers!
As a Sens fan I rooted for Rangers. If the Sens management could keep Mika, Mark Stone, Duchene, Hoffman and a few others it could be Sens again in the conference final.
I'm a rangers fan but if I were you I think I would def wanted play Carolina simply b.c the injuries and goaltender. Who knows how bad raanta was hurt so you could have been facing a third string. Now its igorrr
Yeah the team in 2012-2015 was all about depth. Every line was a scoring line so the points were all spread out. I feel bad for Lundqvist if the Rangers win the cup
@@stevebuscemi3622 And the rangers have been excellent. Tampa has played the choking leafs and a panthers team that made it past the 2nd round for the first time in a long time. Tampa isn't just going to blow by the rangers and you are delusional thinking they will wipe their asses. Honestly. Tampa fans are so damn annoying as of late. Starting to become worse than pens fans.
@@stevebuscemi3622 Everything is working well for the NYR this year and that isn't going to change now. Tampa is going regret getting out of bed each morning because the whole series is going to be a complete nightmare for them.
How bout instead of that win all 4 games and not worry about that, but that’s not likely and if it does happen that would be terrific. LET’S GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!
@@mahande88 I dunno regular season this year Rangers won 100% of their matchups against Tampa , I think 6 or 7 for sure but playoffs are a different beast and so is Tampa when they are in them .
Rangers star players showed up in game 7. Canes star players? Nope. What's bad is that they didn't show up last year against Tampa either. Time for some changes.
Goodjob on the rangers on making it to round 3 Tampa is going to be a very tough team to go against but I am interested in seeing where their series goes
I was sure that it would be impossible to repeat the double comeback on the score of 1:3 in the series, but, wow, they did it! 💥🔥🤩They need more concentration to avoid repeating mistakes.
Был у Рейнджеров Король Хенрик. Слава ему, но его время ушло. Да здравствует Князь Игорь! Шестеркин затащил. Ну и последние игры команда перестроилась, нашли игру. Думаю, в этом году мало кто от Рейнджеров ожидал, что далеко пройдут. Задача минимум уже сделана, теперь надо замахиваться "на Уильяма нашего Шекспира"))
Лундквист безусловно легенда Рейнджерс, но все его достижения преимущество на уровне сборной и в шведском чемпионате. Свои единственный Везина Трофи он получил на седьмой год. Шестёркин на второй уже в номинации, главное, чтобы его не прокатили как Василевского в прошлом году.
@@user-vv6qk8pf6l Кстати, когда Игорь Шестёркин уехал за океан ему на смену в следующим сезоне в СКА был заявлен Пётр Кочетков, но у его чего-то там не сложилось. Мне кажется и в Харрикейнз ему мало что светит.
I had forgotten how much the Rangers outplayed Carolina. Staal absolutely shut down the Panarin line but there was just too much firepower. This year the Rangers are better but Carolina got Guentzel, a Ranger killer. He was a thorn in our side in the previous series. This year though we got the best version of Trochek so we'll see. Either way Florida is loving it. One of the two teams they'll face for the chance at a SC are going to wear themselves out.
Молодцы !!!!! Рейнджеры!!!!!! Игорек просто гений мастерства!!!!! Да и вся команда сыграла здорово!!!! В который раз показала сплочение и командный дух!!!! Урок дала этой гниде диАнжело, устроил скандал будучи копом, не нравился видите ли ему Саша Георгиев, поднял в команде скандал , выпинали его в каролину, вот теперь и увидел что значит поддержка и единый дух в команде.
Never expected the season the Rangers had, nor did I see them getting this far in the playoffs. At this point they're playing with house money. Stay loose, have fun and stay healthy. Anything can happen in the ECF. #LGR
Поздравляю Рейнжерс!!! Мало кто верил в них накануне серии с Каролиной. Шансов пройти Тампу еще меньше.... но буду болеть за оба клуба и красивый хоккей.
You hate to see a game 7 be so lopsided but man oh man did the Rangers ever want this one bad and it was clear from the moment the puck dropped. Congrats to both team on a great series.
Thanks to the Rangers for disposing off the Candy Canes.. if they had some how survived this game they would have been the first team to host the Eastern conference finals after losing all 6 previous road games.. what kind of an ugly record is that ? Has the Eastern conference host ever had such a record on the road ? The Bolts are still favored but at least the Rangers will give them a serious fight. Hoping that the Bolts are challenged in every shift
just 8 wins away from a cup. not that any of those 8 will be easy. tampa is red hot right now (although hopefully theyve cooled off a bit in the week that theyve been watching), colorado is formidable (although im still not entirely sold on them performing up to expectations in the playoffs), and the oilers pairing of mcdavid and draisaitl have seemingly been able to score at will (the only issue there might be the potential inconsistency of mike smith). the rangers have their work cut out for them, but hey, we've come this far. as long as igor continues his great play, and we get consistent contribution from our top 2 lines, we should be golden. As for canes fans, there should be nothing to be ashamed about. you had a phenomenal year, and won the metro division for a reason. LGR!!!
Historically, teams that sweep their series and then face a team that went to 7 games lose more often than they win. Aka, NYR has history on their side. In the series against Toronto Tampa showed the ability to play some actually awful hockey, and also properly excellent hockey. Honestly, I think NYR takes game one as Tampa gets back into game shape, and after that it's a showdown between Vasi and Igor.
@@reaganharder1480 I think ultimately that's the only advantage Rangers have going into the conference finals they've had a tough road to get here they were 3-1 down against the Pens years past would have said seasons over but instead they rallied winning 3 consecutive games including an OT in game 7 then in the Canes game started 2-0 down came back winning 2 straight games and after being 3-2 down they won another 2 consecutive games to send us to the Conference finals
ну что сказать, молодцы полицаи, отстояли своё, теперь бой с тампой, причём игра должна быть интригующей, и там и там вратари как стена, посмотрим поглядим )
@@user-kr7fu9by1v соглашусь, но опять же, вратарь тоже не последний хрен в команде, вспомним игру Тампы с Котами, когда Вася был как стена, и у Шестеркина были подобные матчи. Полицаи показывают рвение к кубку, в последний момент переворачивая игру в свою сторону, а у Тампы есть намерение 3й раз чашку забрать, но опять же, это не короткий сезон (как предыдущие два) именно поэтому игра будет очень интересной, волнительной, напряжённой и не простой :) как мне кажется
Lol no I know.. I jus wanted to know if it got deflected? Saved? Or he just missed the net. I know who cares they won and he scored right after I was just curious. Idk I'm weird like that lol
