How Sweep It Is! Rangers Defeat Caps In First Round Of Stanley Cup Playoffs | New York Rangers

The Rangers took the first 4 games of the first round against the Capitals for the complete series sweep and are officially the first NHL team to do so. Igor Shesterkin made 28 saves in his 4th consecutive playoff win and New York recieved goals from Kakko, Panarin, Trocheck, and an empty net goal to seal it from Jack Roslovic. The Rangers now wait to see who their next challenger will be from the Hurricanes Islanders series.

How Sweep It Is! Rangers Defeat Caps In First Round Of Stanley Cup Playoffs | New York Rangers

[@christophersantiago6845]

If you told me in 2014 that the Rangers were on a cup run with Jonathan Quick on the team and Lundqvist doing the analysis... I'd probably believe you.

[@Tee-19]

Dan Girardi, who blew Game One and therefore the whole series, wouldn’t believe you

[@JAWNDOEmusic]

Troch is so underrated, between the faceoffs and leading us in scoring and doing plenty of assisting he's been on FIRE the last month or two, tbh he's prob our best player rn beside maybe Igor, idk his exact #s but they must be legit after that series atleast GAA though SV% could be lower cuz of the lower shot count they mention

[@timothyplace90]

I agree. That's why he was a no brainer to win the Steven McDonald Extra Effort Award this season.

[@koceanclub]

Troch does it all………..as a sixty year fan, this is one of the best free agent signings I can ever remember. He’s in a class with a very few other elites, and a huge bargain at the terms under which he was signed. (Home Town Discount….lol) Truly very under current market value, and well deserving of his ⭐️”All Star”⭐️ status. I am looking forward to what I hope is a long and very successful career on Broadway LGR 🏒🥅🏒🥅🏒🥅🏒🥅🏒🥅🏒

[@dallasj3028]

Trochek was amazing in this series! Next to Igor!

[@ryanlogan7467]

Till next season Giannone and Vally! My 3 favorites in studio with Sam and Joe on the call, I’ll miss hearing from you guys till next season starts! Until then let’s keep this thing going through round 2! LGR!

[@jeps1973]

Thank you everyone at MSGN for another great year. I appreciate everyone there all the more with getting stuck with bad national broadcasts. You all have spoiled us NYR fans for decades.

[@koceanclub]

Truer words were never spoken…….LGR🏒🥅🏒🥅

[@JustaComment93]

Panarin !!!!! Silence 🤫 the Haters

[@robertjakobson]

First-class analysis and commentary, guys

[@michaelfusco4573]

MSG needs to keep covering and broadcasting the games!!!

[@EddieKilowatt82]

Omg yes please. I think regardless of what station airs the game if you’re in your teams local area you should be able to hear your teams regular commentators, I can’t stand listening to some of these guys

[@chananlinder6826]

Yessss

[@Desert-Father]

Oldvechkin is cooked. Wilson is a goon. The Rangers sweep the Caps and take care of business.

[@JAWNDOEmusic]

ovi's not the same but holding him to 5 shots in 4 games is WILD, he's still they're 2nd pointscorer behind Strome

[@michaelmarro1011]

Great game. Glad they could close it out and finish them off. I Hope isles win Tuesday. But Canes will most certainly be a challenge. Let’s go Rangers!!!! We probably won’t get many PP opportunities against a much more disciplined team like the canes. We will need everyone to step it up a few notches

[@Mr.Eeeeeeeee]

Sweeping a playoff team is not easy by any means. The team is clicking right now.

[@user-qq3nf5hs7h]

thanks New York City thanks Rangers and Knicks great performance 😎👏👏👏👏❤💙 wow

[@RangersFanatic275]

SERIES SWEEP! Let's go!

[@sama3033]

I love to watch the fluid rotation once the guys get set up for the power play, just waiting for that opening. Its absolutely deadly, almost a guaranteed goal.

[@letsgomets07]

Ends with a 4. Let’s go

[@clarencebelljr3143]

LGR!!!!

[@user-qq3nf5hs7h]

MSG wow Rangers wow 👏👏👏 congratulations guys very cool next Round 👏👏👏LGR!! 💙💪

[@patb4691]

Why NOT us!! LGR!!🏆

[@dumpybear8664]

Someone needs to remind Panarin that swinging your stick like a sword after scoring is going to get someone hurt....lol

[@rhythmindset6996]

Let him cook!!!

[@koceanclub]

It did look great though 😂

[@dumpybear8664]

@@koceanclub Between the leg kick and the sword swing, someone is losing an eye.

[@chuckweber542]

Man i wish hank had a team like this during his carrer.agian there been some great rangers teams in the history but this team is good all around.lets go rangers!!!!!!!!!

[@ethanpurita]

2013-2014 & 2014-2015 were unreal. Especially that 2014-2015 team. If Zucc didn't get hurt...

[@koceanclub]

Hank surely deserved to have hoisted the Cup🏆.

[@JAWNDOEmusic]

that nonchalant WHIFF Igor had game 3 mightve been good long run, he lost a meaningless shutout but he was reminded not to take ANY shot for granted early on...

[@edwardjohn1116]

Sweep means some time off ,, get some video sessions in to clean up what needs to be cleaned up and ,,,, Let's Keep it going Rangers 💯🛐💚🔯💛☪️❤️🕉️💪💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@DOUBLEG-Music]

Get some rest. Regroup and keep the same structure. LGR

[@terenceetullyjr]

Ovechkin wasn’t stopped but the Rangers, he never even tried: he is only interested in regular season goals so he can pass Gretzky. He was a no-show in the series who was an overall negative in all 4 games. He should be ashamed.

[@dallasj3028]

I hope he NEVER GETS IT! Wayne forever!!

[@nyujay2010]

Great series! I was at both games in DC and watched Trouba turn the puck over so many times. He is a true liability and the better teams will make us pay. Bring on the Canes and LGR!!!

[@ThorGiske]

He also makes good d plays but idk if it enough to even out lol

[@Mr.Eeeeeeeee]

There is a reason why he is on the 3rd pairing now. He blocks a fair number of shots but the dude can’t move the puck to save his life.

[@kristerka]

They dont talk about Kakko’s goal??? Hello!

[@Juan_rivera]

Ovi is washed, and Rangers showed that, LGR!!!

[@yoholmes273]

Caps are trash. Cool victory over a couple of creampuffs
