The Rangers are starting to fill up the net! I like it. I'd still like for them to be more responsible defensively but Shersterkin has sharpened up a bit and the offense is hitting more net than goalies and posts for a change. They were sharp offensively tonight. Obviously I didn’t see the game tonight, but walking to the restroom at halftime and seeing it was 6-1 was pretty sweet. it got nasty in the 2nd and kinda looked like the “i can’t defend myself Rangers”. Otherwise, game was a bit like some of those Flyers matchups from last season. Hawks tried skating with the Rangers and not play defense. Bad idea

F them Fishsticks! Nice job getting back in the win column. 8-1 into the Xmas break! Seriously though, how many posts can a team hit? Sheesh.

It was so nice to see it happen to the team we're playing against and not us. Benching Blais and starting Gauthier was a good move and we'll hopefully stick with that going forward. We've looked really good lately. One slip up in Pittsburgh but other than that we're back where we want to be and what we all hoped/expected.

Blais is in the dog house and never scores anyway, he can sit for a while. He’s like damn fools gold. It seems like he’s doing good things out there but it never has tangible results.

Pretty bad showing off that 5 day break. No excuses. They got owned tonight. They could learn something from the Caps about establishing the style you want and maintaining it throughout the game.

I actually flipped over to the Knicks game, for more disappointment...I'm a gluttony for punishment sometimes...

Victory still would have been spared if McBride and Grimes don’t fight over a rebound. As a lifelong Knicks fan I can say that’s about as Knicksy as it gets.

Bad loss to Tampa who found a way. One source calculated Igor faced 23 high-danger scoring chances (attachment is different) while Panarin, who scored in the shootout, missed the net on how many quality chances? Com’on, this is the NHL.

Good win tonight, that said Halak is an enigma. Makes good saves, but also allows crap. He hopefully thanked his teammates for that 5 spot tonight. Big games this week. Let's Go!

Florida is one team which likely shouldn’t have changed coaches. Moving out both the HC and top offensive weapon besides Barkov has backfired despite the addition of Tkachuk.

Some really good hockey lately by the Blueshirts but today isn't one of them.
Something is wrong with this team it seems to me because they are consistently blowing leads in the 3rd period.
Sure we got a point today but we go into the 3rd period with a 3-1 lead you should not lose that game.
Especially against a rival team. Disappointed with today's loss.

Today they tried to sit back and just hold on to 3-1 including pissing away a power play. They got what they deserved and Mika blew the best chance of OT because it wasn’t the actual goal that got scored. Maybe they will figure it out but they just don’t have what they had last year.

Also Hughes is a dynamic and tremendous young star. He will be a problem for years and years. Far and away the best player on the ice today. Also kind of depressing as you see a consensus # 1 killing it and we have Lafrieniere slogging it through his career to date.

That’s an excellent 2 points. Down 2-0 and 3-2. Hopefully Kreider and Gauthier are ok.

These pants are soiled with happy juice!! LETS ****ING GO!!!! Incredible win. Had my remote in my hand ready to shut the TV off and just dropped it and went "HOLY SHIT!"" .9 seconds left and we tie it up?!? That never happens for us. Then winning it in OT. Best game in a while. Not the best played or what have you but the best game for excitement since we were in last year's playoffs. Lets Go Rangers!!!

that really lifted my spirits last night. Scoring with 0.8 sec left...We usually give those up, nice to be on the delivery end, and that was a great OT. Dallas is a tough team, with great goaltending. Big win for sure!!

In the game nobody watched yesterday the Rangers suffered a home regulation loss to the Habs. This is why you can’t trust them. When they are a low seed or completely out of the playoffs remember home losses to the Sharks, Blackhawks, Blue Jackets and Habs. The other contenders simply don’t lose these games.

Panarin doesn’t use his speed anymore and the overall roster is too slow.

Panarin doesn’t use his speed anymore and the overall roster is too slow. Bruins outclassed the Rangers as they have done to the rest of the league. If you are surprised I can’t join you.
