When the Rangers played with confidence, the can hang with and beat any team. Florida knocked that confidence out of us and we played too deliberate. Florida and Edmonton just play, if that makes sense. They don't think, they're automatic.
I think the Rangers were at their best when they used their offensive freedom and creativity from GG and their structure from Lavy.

Rangers were banged up. That had a lot to do with the loss. It’s very hard to beat Florida without at least a healthy defense

That's a fair assessment. I do think we would have been clocked by Edmonton in the finals though. Would have had a better chance against Dallas.

We just don't have the elite dogs that Edm and Fla do.

Injury luck is such a huge part of winning a cup. But to be fair, everyone was saying after game 2 of the final that Edmonton was cooked cuz they were so banged up. Nurse, Draisaitl, Kane can't even play... And look what they've done while being the more banged up team than Florida. So yes injuries hurt, but they aren't the sole reason.

True, but we don't know what injuries Fla might have been dealing with yet.

Fox alone with knee was basically our death sentence. He had zero elusiveness virtually all playoffs

Have you ever been invited to anything?

Luck, period, is a huge part in winning it all. There's the cliche that you make your own luck, but that only takes you so far.

Oh wow

Can't believe they overturned that. Sportsnet didn't zoom in enough on the view down the line to see

Forsling coughed it up? I thought he was god.

The collapse continues

The cats get sucky when it doesn’t go their way

Unless FLA has a Chris Kreider up their sleeve with a natural hat trick. We'll see.

I like that a sport is "real life" to you.
- gravey914

So if its not real life, why would anyone care if a team wins or loses?

In my opinion the Panthers have become the Penguins that Torts called "an entitled team" They female dog and moan when the game doesn't go their way. I hope the Oilers finish the reverse sweep

Game 7 Monday night, complete the collapse

Sing La Bamba!!

Wonder if the style Florida plays is catching up to them. Two years in a row in the finals is a lot on the body.

Nahh, Edmonton just killing it with their speed and skill. Maybe next year it will affect Florida.

Oilers are the best team in the league 5v5. Panthers are up there too but edm transition game and speed is wearing them down.

Proving the point more and more you don’t have to be pay top money to goalies. Gotta build the team 5v5. Rangers always building special teams and top goalie teams

Couldn’t agree more. JRR and Fenrir gotta go.

Fantastic.

Nevertheless, the Rangers should absolutely give Shesterkin a massive new contract anyway

Edmonton and Toronto have been trying for years to find the right goalie
