For the first 10 mins,they werent the better team after that...There power play is terrible right now and they arent generating much offense when theyre behind....Almost impossible too when your outmanned 2:1 on every puck...

Yea, I mean Montreal was more aggressive, but they were undisciplined at key points of the game that costed them. They got a lot of great scoring chances, Lundqvist and the sticks were great at stymieing rebound chances especially in the 3rd

Why would he win over Crawford if the Hawks beat the Rangers?

:dahell:

Because losing players have won the Conn Smythe Before + Conn Smythe is Playoffs MVP not Finals MVP

Lundqvist has allowed 2 goals or less in 14 of the 16 games he's played in.

I give NY credit they forced MTL into bad decisions and they basically had 4 guys back and were dominant on thre boards but alot of habs shots were from distance and bad angles with no screens in front...

They didnt outside of the first 10 mins have many great scoring chances point blank...
I think the key for them next few games is to score first,its clear they cannot come from behind,they dont have enough offense to be getting down 3-1 cuz NY is just going to stay back and close up the neutral zone...

and it doesnt help Price is gone for the series...

I wouldnt pick the rangers over either LA or Chicago in the final...Both teams have way more size and offensive punch up front...
You obviously have some sort of deep-seated hate for the Rangers :mjlol:

Get lucky by scoring 7 goals in a game brehs :mjlol:

Clearly you dont know how to read,i said it was flukey how game 1 unfolded...meaning getting blown out in one game doesnt mean theres hangover into the next game...The two goals at 2-1 that blew the game open came off flukey defensive zone mishaps that BOTH wound up in there net...

If you understood the game you`d know what i mean...

I dont wanna say Rangers got lucky cuz they been the better team clearly but lucky from the standpoint the game ended at 4-1 and they were lucky to put back to back defensive miscues in the net in 49 seconds,which basically put the game away...The game imploded on the Habs from there...
Get lucky to find the back of the net 7 times brehs

*ignore list*

Let's go Rangers :win:
