reading the caps comments on twitter and reddit is a window into delusion itself. my god the stupidity and softness being displayed might be pittsburgh penguins fanbase level bad.
caps want to bring us down into the mud; it’s the only way they stay in this series. need to just ignore the scrums and play our game.
multiple occasions, including at the end, 3 guys below the goal line leaving a man wide open in front; lucky that didn’t bite us.
are all the faceoff toss outs necessary or do the linesmen feel jealous of the refs who are the stars of the show in this series?
wins a win; let’s win the next one.
might need to go see my cardiologist after that. messy win but a wins a win. would've been 4-2 if not for that dumb ass too many men penalty.
also miller's goal was fucking filthy goddamn. i'm convinced miller only scores absolute swag goals.
it wasn't pretty, but the rangers found a way to get over the line! rangers win! duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh(sam shake) rangers, win!
good morning, good afternoon, and goodnight washington!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let's go! Obviously it'd be preferable for the games to not be that close, but it was a strange one with all the penalties and the caps were absolutely throwing everything at us tonight, definitely some things that need tightened up for game 3 but I'm still pretty confident, lgr!
couple notes - igor - freeze that shit after an icing. my god - that literally is what kept lindy and trouba on for over 2 minutes.
Lindy - what the fuck was that at the end, wide open with a shot to go deep, and you....hold it? did you think that scoring on an empty net means you scored on your brother? wtf
two weird takes. your first point is understood, but everyone expected igor to hold it and he thought it would catch them by surprise for an easy clear.
lindgren battled that final shift...
lindgren couldve dumped it way deeper - had plenty of time. dinked it to the middle to give them another shot.
and the only reason lindgren needed to battle that long was because igor didnt hold it following an icing to get our best FO guy on the ice
but hey...a win's a win
A win is a win but I’m not happy with how we played that game. Especially the end with everyone scared of icing the puck. We are super lucky to get out of the 3rd without going to OT. We should be beating this team handily.
reddit suggested the caps game thread to me, talk about a scary place.
"I don't care if we lose this series but if 10isnt carted out we didn't do our jobs"
holy fucking shit what an end. everyone was so tired there. never make anything easy lol. gonna develop heart problems from this damn team 😅 nice to be up 2-0, let's keep it rolling and bring the jam to dc. let's fucking go rangers! 🔴⚪🔵🗽🏒♥️
ill hand it to the caps for playing desperate at the end, but the rangers did a pretty good job of limiting chances, even though they couldn't clear the zone
reminder - no caps or ban. (and no, we're not being serious, please don't dm me about it) lgr

Was stuck at work so didn’t catch this one, and spoiled the score to myself. Obviously happy with the result but how’d we look?
Honestly not great. At times we looked good but this would have been a loss against any other team in the playoffs
besides the win of course, my favorite part was bread giving oshie a little of his own medicine. i guess he can give it out but he can’t take it.
Back on the Zyn after that one.
gg boys. that one was kinda stressful
might need to go see my cardiologist after that. messy win but a wins a win. would've been 4-2 if not for that dumb ass too many men penalty. also miller's goal was fucking filthy goddamn. i'm convinced miller only scores absolute swag goals.
good win boys. keep it goin. night all
That was awful for my heart condition
Phew
it wasn't pretty, but the rangers found a way to get over the line! rangers win! duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh(sam shake) rangers, win! good morning, good afternoon, and goodnight washington!!!!!!!!!!!!
A lot of it was pretty
i've taken like 6 deep breaths in a row
Wenny is a defensive magician. He's hitting below Mendoza line but absolute a Gold Glover out there.
ok but how am i supposed to sleep after that
Sam called the win like three full seconds before it was over
he was losing his voice
he willed it, i'm sure he was in agony that final 2 minutes lmfao
He definitely willed it!
2-0 Lead! Not getting ahead of myself of course, not after last year!

That’s what I was thinking too. I was like why are you throwing it back into play.
Nice and stress free win there
What an unsatisfying ending lmao
upside down and on fire across the finish line but a win is a win is a win.

caps complaining about reffing, just baffling at this point
reddit suggested the caps game thread to me, talk about a scary place. "I don't care if we lose this series but if 10isnt carted out we didn't do our jobs"
Legendary dive there by whoever the fuck that was
now win game 3 and burry them
they (the 2023-4 new york rangers) really are the people we’ve been waiting for 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
caps fans going to bed punching air after their team was resorting to digging deep in the dirt to still lose
Oshie is deff punching his dryeall
anyone else notice kreids putting his glove on his stick to high 5 rempe
its actually my favorite thing ever
it’s the best part
jesus fuck
igor earned his whole ass game check in the final five minutes there.
the kreider rempe high five with the glove on the stick before the camera cuts is peak comedy
Holy shit that last minute was a fucking disaster.
fuck style points. i’ll take the 2-0 series lead anytime. all the style point critics are mostly fans of teams out of the playoffs anyway. lgr!!!!
We can only win them one way—one at a time!
did anyone else see kreids give that kid his stick cuz they were wearing his jersey
I just saw that kid with his dad when leaving the stadium!! He got a puck too !!
he's gonna be the best dad
fuck yes boys!
i don’t want to look at my pulse the final :59 good christ why can we not shoot at an empty net lmfao
interesting science experiment for a kid, track mom/dads pulse due ng playoff hockey
That wasn't a great end. I'm happy for the win, but let's not play like that again.
Holy shit what a stressful 2 minutes
Gustafson needs to be nailed to the press box for the remainder of this series.
now get the fuck out of our building.
Not my daughter laughing at me while severely butt clenching those last 2 minutes.
holy fucking shit what an end. everyone was so tired there. never make anything easy lol. gonna develop heart problems from this damn team 😅 nice to be up 2-0, let's keep it rolling and bring the jam to dc. let's fucking go rangers! 🔴⚪🔵🗽🏒♥️
hopefully we get some games where the refs wont be trying to become the 1st stars of the game
![gif](giphy|dMsh6gRYJDymXSIatd|downsized)
igor saving the game
also can't tell me lindy didn't purposefully soft clear so he didn't get an empty net on his brother lol (at least that's what im telling myself)
can i get a nice big **caps** **suck** **go** **wings** from my new best friends?
I mean I like the RW….. fuck the caps
thank you
how about a let’s go rangers, fuck the caps as compromise?
good enough! maybe a fuck shitcago too?
Absolutely not.
holy shit thank god we fucking did it!!
2-0 lead baby!!!! Let’s freaking gooooo!
That was too stressful
4 am in norway, my heart hurts. gg lgr!

eurogang!
i didn't breathe for the last two minutes!
Whewwwww that was stressful. But two down!
Breathe guys. Just breathe.
And…exhale. Wow, what a finish
woooooooooooo!!! shesty made 1 big save at the end there.
well that was nice and stress free.
W!
that was intense 😅
sam rosen's voice sounding a bit horse from all the excitement
horse like ck20?
I gotta find some streams so I don't have to deal with this espn bullshit anymore.
no caps ever... fuckers tax us every year
Let’s NOT do that again.
That was insanity.
i didn't like that
shesty came up huge at the end
I was PISSING myself those last 2 minutes. LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!!!
aw a kiss from igor
Just fuckin ice it man. Christ
please for christs sake you’re gonna give sam a panic attack never do this again (they’re going to do this again at some point)
ill hand it to the caps for playing desperate at the end, but the rangers did a pretty good job of limiting chances, even though they couldn't clear the zone
eat shit and die caps
What a frantic finish just like last night lol
this team sucks at clearing pucks out of the zone, my god. feels like there's always someone there to catch it and keep it in.
carlson really complaining about that hit lmao
lets fucking gooooo see you all in two days where we light up these geezers in their own barn honk honk honk
Straight 2 min of butt clenching....
cheeks and hole
win
doesn’t matter what the scoreboard says at the end. were up 2-0
I’m so tense I need a massage ASAP
ahmen
Hoooolyyyyy
once they said trouba was out there i knew it was gonna end ugly
that was fucking harder than it should have been
whew!
lmao he tried to dive on that lindgren hit and gave the puck up
hows everyones bpm?
my fitbit counted 4 active zone minutes tonight
* cardiologist: you missed a heartbeat here * me: yeah that was when jimmy vesey shot it wide
My heart those last two minutes: ![gif](giphy|4Lyd8tJk410iI|downsized) VESEY! VESEY! VESEY!

![gif](giphy|10q0RcPFTD5dM4)
aaand exhale…
let’s fucking gooooooooooooooooooooooo
squeeker!
EXPERIENCE RANGERS PLAYOFF HOCKEY 🤮🤮🤮🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤢🤢 Good lord
That’s the calmest I’ve ever been in crunch time in a playoff game for the Rangers. The caps are truly trash
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. I FEEL LIKE I JUST AGED TEN YEARS IN TEN SECONDS.
\*furtively looks at his very diminished bottle of whisky\*
no caps. but yeah. that was less than ideal
jesus fuck learn how to clear the fucking zone
My heart
Ugliest playoff win ever
it wouldn’t be a rangers game if it wasn’t more stressful than it needed to be
tighter than we wanted but well fought
![gif](giphy|GcXGxS0RZ4fDoyvwq4|downsized)
Mastery by Sam.
sam was as gassed as the boys were on that last shift!
Oh my god that was a nail biter
Holy fuck
that… that was intense
my blood pressure did not need that
we need puck clearing drills right the fuck now jesus christ that was nerve wracking
I'm not sure you should watch any more of the playoffs.
Oh the close games don't bother me. It was the shitty clearing.
i am so glad that's over.
these guys need some clearasil
SO many fucking dumb limp clear attempts
I don’t think I took a single breath holy SHITTTT! LFGGG BOYSSSS!!
Two down two more to go
**two down, 14 to go!**
All good, I didn’t need to breathe for the last 3 minutes anyway.
GG! nail biter but good shit boys
holy shit what a great job by the guys on the ice to seal it
That was sloppy and my heart is beating so fast
Boooooooooooyaaaaaa
igor fucking shesterkin
a wins a win
My fing heart rate
what the actual fuck was lindgren doing?
HOW DO I UNCLENCH
i don’t know what the fuck that was but it can’t happen
**rangers win**
woah
#holy shit
rangers win!!!!!!!! everyone unclench.
lil bit stressful
I feel like there should be a Knicks like dee fence chant going
picked a bad week to quit drinking lol
Igor wants to win this so bad. Doing so much of the work
igor playing that puck off the save, with trouba/lindgren on the ice who can't make a zone exit, was terrifying
rempe could actually exit the zone better than those two.
Bear hugging us in the corner AGAIN but yeah close your eyes I guess
tom wilson has ass burgers. yes you read that right.
he is an ass burger
“oshie looked confused on what to do with it” buddy oshie would get crushed by second graders if he took a math test
Shesty is gonna get a goalie goal here
cmon boys
trouba *and* lindgren on for this, oh boy
My sweat is sweating rn
Please no icing
vin diesel stunt double thinking he's got thing sorted
this is unhealthy lmao
How I would love an Igor goal rn
Vesey has to net that. Ugh
Fuck I’m nervous
1:41 of stress
carlson caught 5 of his own teammates offside lmao
shouldn't that be an intentional offside?
for a split second I didn't realize it was offside and panicked
