Can the Rangers decline power plays? Tampa just had a 3 on 1 for a hot second shorthanded.

Honestly love to see this team defend their goalie. Few years back they’d just be watching players crash the crease.

Kinda wild how different the lineup feels with Trocheck. He scored his second of the game and season to put the Rangers up 6-3.
November 13, 2025 at 2:20 AM
The Rangers goals continue to be weird ones. Trocheck got his first of the season after sending it past Vasilevskiy who fell when trying to slide over to square up to him.

The Lightning scored a shorthanded goal and were so incredibly close to getting a second shorthanded goal. Rangers power play was not on the same page. I love the idea for the second unit but it’s clear they need more time practicing together.

Another weird deflection goal this time for Borgen. Tampa Bay has twice as many shots but the Rangers have twice as many goals. What a strange game so far.
November 13, 2025 at 12:50 AM
Igor lost track of the puck and Tampa struck again. 3-2 as the first period winds down.

Shortly after this Igor made a highlight reel diving save.

Lafreniere heard all the haters and said naw. What a shot to put the Rangers up by two again. If his chances start consistently going in, watch out folks.
November 13, 2025 at 12:27 AM
Sabourin with an incredible wrist shot beat Igor to cut the lead to one. Nothing against Scott Sabourin, but I did not think he had that in him.
November 13, 2025 at 12:22 AM
Mika (I believe) with the second goal on a weird bounce and as I write this Lafrenière is dangling through the offensive zone. We’re so back.
November 13, 2025 at 12:19 AM
Who is this team? I know I’ve been a Debbie downer during their struggle at home but in the beginning of the year I wrote about and did think once they had some time to gel with Sullivan’s new system things would start clicking into place.

This fourth line of Tampa challenges the Rangers for tallest in the league. Douglas is an absolute mountain and Finley is a beast as well.
November 13, 2025 at 12:17 AM
Oh hell yes. Adam Fox was able to walk in so far and with a lucky bounce Will Cuylle makes it 1-0 early in the first.
November 13, 2025 at 12:12 AM
Which version of the Rangers power play will we see tonight?

Wrote the recap tonight so I didn’t live tweet the game but can I get a HELL YEAH BROTHER. NEW YORK FREAKIN RANGERS!!!

I was a groomsman at a wedding instead of seeing tonight’s game and holy shit am I lucky.

Crowd booing the Rangers power play and rightfully so
November 5, 2025 at 1:31 AM
When it rains it pours. Laba was immediately assessed a penalty after the goal.
November 5, 2025 at 12:35 AM
Carolina scores on the power play and the Rangers trail 1-0. Igor never saw it coming. He was screened by at least 3 players including 2 Rangers.
November 5, 2025 at 12:34 AM
Incredibly fun to see Jagr in the audience!
November 5, 2025 at 12:31 AM
I’ve never seen a better chance for a player than Panarin just had. I fear he’s cooked.

I’m watching a hockey game on TNT on HBO. I miss the old days of broadcasting.
