Panthers avoided two patently obvious penalties at the end of the 3rd (Forslund holding Zibanejad in the neutral zone and Ekblad tripping Kaako about 5 seconds later). Disgusting. Both obstructed the Rangers from a scoring opportunity. There's absolutely 0 acceptable answer for not calling those. All the other stuff was noise, missed calls behind the play, gloves in faces, etc. Penalties not called that stopped scoring chances should ALWAYS be called. Game 1 of the season or Game 4 of the ECF.
As a TV veteran of 30 years the coverage by ESPN sucks. Their directors have no clue about the game and what fans want to see. I don't want to see close ups of players spitting while there is a scrum on the ice. Their directors play the piano on the switcher switch, switch,switch to things no fans care about. And McDonough and Ferraro. WOOF they suck bad. The TNT on air guys are so much better
Panthers fan here Matthew tkachuk gotta get this revenge game after Kreider really took his mouthpiece and threw it on ground that’s lit unsportsmanlike conduct right there
Rangers fans blaming wheeler for taking a highly necessary penalty as a result of mika's mistake lmao. Id much rather give the panthers a look on the PP than let barkov in on that rush without being hooked
Lafreienere is just hot but he will cool off and without Goodrow this team will Score less and shoot less…. At this point the Rangers shoot only about 20 shots per game while the panthers shoot 40 per game … with out 31 the series would be about over
For sure it’s dead even cats having more opportunities. Cats need to limit the rangers opportunities to less than Grade A if they want to take these next two or two more to win
@@gunstargizmo coming from a panthers fan perspective before/after Maurice’s first year. When we won the presidents trophy by forcibly replacing Q with Brunette we were winning way too many games from being down being dubbed the “comeback cats”. We took care of Washington in 6 even though they were a wild card team. Then our second year against Tampa we get swept and after being down 0-3 a few players go to a club on Dale Mabry before game 4. The team gets waxed by the bolts in round 2. Team needed a new direction from the Q era. Bruno was a remnant of the Q era and I thought he would have been fine as HC. Huberdeau had a 110 point year but needed a new deal. The cats needed a shakeup with actual leadership of the team starting with hiring POMO to replace Bruno. This is with Zito calling the shots after year 1. Pulls one of the best moves this decade in trading for Chucky. Even though I felt at the time it sucked and didn’t think Chucky would impact as much as Hubie would. PoMo changed this team from offense first to defense first. The cats have never been known for their defense ever and PoMo had fixed a major weakness of the team that had been ignored since the Mid 2000s-2021. The cats have been dialed in, bought in, and built for deep runs with PoMo as coach and the right players, right staff etc. Regular season Paul and Playoff Paul are different.
You're not alone. Don't forget Panarin and Kreider. Combine stats: 0 points 1 assist in this series. That is not getting it done!!! It's not over. 2 out of 3 games left.
Excellent analysis by the commentator (R. Callahan), "Your best players have to step up in the playoffs " 0 points, 1 assist is not getting it done!!! So far, Panthers has their number. It's not over, but the playoffs are not for the faint of heart. Best 2 out of three.
I love my Rangers and Igor has been playing on a whole different level than everyone else. However. their defense stinks and their top scorers are dry. There needs to be a shake-up in the off-season. Dump Zibanejad (never does well in the playoffs), Kakko, Wheeler, Trouba and Gustaffson to start out.
Panarin has 1 assists this series?….Ummm where the hell do they find these people he had 2 assist in this game alone ya he hasn’t been great but this guy obv doesn’t watch hockey
Trouba is playing AWFUL. Dude should be benched. Florida only scoring on the PP and Trouba is handing out PP minutes like halloween candy and then when he is playing on the PK looks like crap. Oh and 5v5 Trouba also looks like crap. If Trouba and Mika can somehow just play average Rangers got a chance.
What the hell was Wheeler doing on the ice in OT. He played 9:18 the whole game (vs. Rempe’s 6:17) and promptly gets a penalty. Don’t let him near the ice again.
Terrible Job by the Refs, You have to let the players play, And be consistent, at the end of Regulation, Zibanejad and Kakko were tripped on breakaways, And nothing called, And then they call 1 in overtime
Not even a Panther fan but the panther growl when they score is great
@@joerobert-qe9cn they scored more than the rangers who are known to score
@@joerobert-qe9cn it’s been like that all series no team has a clear Advantage

I didn't see you complaining when Trouba put Barkov in a chokehold in game 3.
@@zfouleur Because I didn't see it. Did it remove Barkov from an immediate scoring opportunity?
Keep at it Panthers 💪

Outside of Scott, ESPN might as well be MSG. What absolute jokes.
Ray Ferraro?
@@PeterHKwok dude seems to be blind t to any team that plays south of St Louis
Panthers should be up 3-1, maybe even have swept ny. Panthers have dominated every statline.
Except goaltending, very important in the playoffs. I wish they would sweep
Igor is carrying the entire Rangers staff on his back this series.
They haven’t dominated the goals stat
Agreed. IGOR is insanely good!
Igor has been the reason the Rangers are in this series. He has been amazing. Go Panthers 🐆
Panthers are coming baby!! This is our year!
ESPN has become the Locked On Rangers Podcast.
They homer NY what else is new

That was all Mika’s fault, guy looks like he’s choking
imagine if rangers had guy like skinner as their goalie panthers would of swept them🤣
Holy crap, who is in charge of the background graphics? Why does it say New York behind Tkachuk and Panthers behind Shesterkin?
Lafreienere is just hot but he will cool off and without Goodrow this team will
Score less and shoot less…. At this point the Rangers shoot only about 20 shots per game while the panthers shoot 40 per game … with out 31 the series would be about over
Panthers deserve to win this series. But with Igor on net, anything is possible.
For sure it’s dead even cats having more opportunities. Cats need to limit the rangers opportunities to less than Grade A if they want to take these next two or two more to win
Wheeler got no wheels.
This guy actively caused PoMo to part ways with the jets…
@@kylejohnson5493im pretty sure it was Sheiflie that pissed off Paul Maurixe
@@deecee2174 who knows because wheeler pissed off Bowness and got canned for it after last year 🤷🏼♂️
@@kylejohnson5493 Maurice is useless anyways. Not sure why the Panthers hired him since they were already doing great.

No, their being shut down that why they haven't scored.
Love Cally! He's been so great throughout these playoffs! Go Cally!

Thank you Blake Wheeler
Bang 😅😅😅

Many missed trips on y’all to so
You're adorable 😍🤣
Bruh Kakko tripped on himself
