[@Mr.Eeeeeeeee]

Chytil is a significant upgrade in the lineup. Remember he was supposed to be centering Panarin and Laffy this year. Can’t wait for him to gash the defense and score some goals this series.

[@trewster]

They wouldn't dare touch that line right now

[@dumpybear8664]

If he scores at the garden, the roof will blow clean off turning it into an outdoor game.

[@JustaComment93]

@@trewsteri know. I’m should be excited but Chytil has concussion still

[@whitegd4100]

I just hope he helps the team and doesn’t get hurt again. He’s so young. I mean I’m only 32 but shit.

[@Mr.Eeeeeeeee]

@@trewster You are missing the point. Chytil was supposed to have a huge year following the breakout last year. Then he got cheap shotted by the Canes like Fox did.

[@andicampbell8621]

A fully-fit Fil can just about make the Rangers go to the final. He is for sure a big upgrade. We had one poor game in 10 and have been written off again. We done the 2 form teams in rounds one and two, without getting the respect this team deserves. Get this done Rangers and I`m coming over for the final 👍

[@D...M...A...]

Mollie is a great columnist ... Rangers sweep ... !

[@user-tb7to6ex9s]

Dreaming

[@D...M...A...]

@@user-tb7to6ex9s No , Mollie is great ...

[@RyanRe-rd6wv]

Let’s see Chucky fight with Rempe

[@JayzBeerz]

Sweep is right. Rangers in 4 EASY!

[@etahhcumosevahi]

@@JayzBeerzez pz!

[@ruelpile]

Let's Go Rangers!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@Arcturian1111]

Laffy has matured amazingly, we need Kakko to get going. Kudos to Chytil, I hope he returns. And let's not forget Wheeler. Also Rempzilla

[@wakemiamigreatagain]

Laffy did a great job last night! Thanks for the goal!

[@Jonathanflash1985]

Let’s go rangers !!

[@PAVEL-JAKL]

Rangers in 6

LGR 🎉🎉🎉🎉BABY🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@cantfindwaldo1]

I don’t think they should play wheeler. Keep him healthy and for a “just in case” scenario if a player gets injured.

[@JoshDambuleff]

Agreed. Can’t throw a player that hasn’t played a game in months into a super fast and gritty conference final game. He was very slow on the ice all year when he played. Feels bad saying that but it’s true, we’re gonna need speed and grit. A player like Brodzinski would be a much better addition to the lineup in this series.

[@wakemiamigreatagain]

Rangers fans seem to think they a team of destiny because of all the coincidences/stats that are similar to their glory years. I guess they need something to give them hope.

[@JayzBeerz]

Rangers in 5 easy.

[@timdumoulin2576]

lol ok son whatever you say.

[@wakemiamigreatagain]

How was that game last night? Was it easy?

[@etahhcumosevahi]

Yes, ez pz.

[@cantfindwaldo1]

Rangers in 6. It’s not going to be an easy series. I have a feeling Florida will steal one in msg and we will steal one in Florida

[@johnjacobs4142]

My wife and i bought tickets for game 6 hopefully thats the game that sends the rangers to the finals. LGR. Hopefully there will be many ny fans there

[@user-rb3br9ed6r]

I don’t know. Something is off with mollie. Can’t put my finger on it. Adderall? She reminds me of going up to see the captain in the cockpit and then you see that it’s a golden retriever flying the plane. I guess that’s remarkable to even witness, certainly unexpected and just… something is off.

[@etahhcumosevahi]

Hi Sal! 👋 lay off the drugs ok?

[@user-pg8om6zn7w]

There's only one thing on my mind and that's, LET'S WIN THE STANLEY CUP BABY LET'S GO RANGERS. 🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@MJ-1981]

For the first time in the playoffs Rangers will face a legit playoff team and legit playoff goalie, it won't go well for them. Panthers in 6.

[@pbmc_]

Pfft! Rangers in 6.

[@michaelangst6078]

Panthers won't be letting in softies or giving up third period leads. These clueless Rangers fans are about to get owned

[@richardpomeroy9290]

Hurricanes are not a legit playoff team? Lay off the drugs

[@user-pg8om6zn7w]

Your watching to many cartoons my friend, RANGERS IN 6.

[@chrisf7563]

Hurricanes are better than Boston or Tampa, buddy.

[@thomascapellini1306]

Rangers in 7
