ESPN broadcasters suck.. Turn the TV volume down, and stream 660AM so you can listen to Maloney and Albert during the game.
Rangers on the AM dial has always been king. Too bad they're not as close to the ice at the Garden as they were in the 80s and 90s. The most natural sound of the puck hitting the glass next to actually sitting rinkside.
This is exactly what we did and we synced it up perfect. Was way more enjoyable
I love listening to games on the radio.
Thx for that
Sucks we cant listen to sam and joe rest ofnthe way man
Rangers have scored 4 of their 8 goals, in this series, via 5v5, and scored 11 total goals, in the playoffs, via 5v5. So, the lack of 5v5 scoring is a myth. Also, the media ignores how putrid the Canes PK has been going back to the Isles series
Yep this is something the media loves to tout. We are definitely not as strong 5v5 but not as bad as everyone makes it out to be.
I couldn’t take it! Muted the game half way through the first and only put the sound back on for overtime. Seems like a lot of Canes fans hate McDonough and Ferraro just as much… Baffling that the broadcast is universally hated by everybody but continues to stay the same. I don’t get it.
Also shout out ESPN for cutting to the Avs game at the end of the third! Tie game, Rangers have the puck with a few minutes left but yeah let’s see what’s up in Dallas!? So help me God if the Canes scored when the feed was out..
Years ago they used to have hockey on ch-4 in the new york area, I use to watch it all the time back in the 1970's, the commentator was MR TIM RYAN.
Yes with Jim Gordon and Bill Chadwick
The Big Whistle. @@markmartin6365
Trouba knows his role and does it exceptionally. He had a little shaky later end of the season for him. But i love his grit and what he does and especially how hes started this series. We need his hits and other player to kno n have that im the back of their mind coming down the middle or in a 50/50 puck chase. I love the captain man and how.he goes about his business LG Ranger!!! Lets GoOoo
As far as the 5 v 5.. I feel like that was something everybody was trying to beat the rangers up on all year long. We can't forget the fact that lindgren trouba and fox we're all out for a good chunk of time.. with that said playing slightly reserved on the offense - not getting too cute, or getting caught to deep was a smart move Imo. Not to mention the 5v5 stats leveled right out end season. This is an elite team.. micro manage as you will. All teams have strengths and weaknesses... We have elite faceoff.. elite pk, elite pp, elite goal tending (even sub) , elite defense. elite shooters... I mean.. get with it fellas. And if the hurricanes were so good, and didn't just rely on the power play like apparently the rangers had.. it's a shame they lost 2 of 3 times we met reg season.
Jacob! You got some esplainin’ to a do!!! (In my Ricky Ricardo voice)
I think the difference in treatment comes from the fact that rangers finished the season +2 5v5 whereas the canes finished +25. Therefore, statistically speaking, since most of the game is played 5v5, the canes would be favored.
@alexandercohen7277 I would tend to agree with you. I think the truth is that the Rangers will not overextend and take risks on 5v5 when they are already up due to a pp goal, NO MATTER WHO THEY PLAY. I see the Canes as a great team, who generates on 5v5 through zone pressure and shot volume. They scored big against lesser teams, but they are not dynamic. They don't have much flexibility in their style, and I think that is what is exposed right now in the ebbs and flows of the game. The only thing I can't answer for the canes is their PP, but I didn't watch them a lot this season. If they look to generate the same way on PP as 5v5, a.k.a slap from the perimeter and look for 2nd chances, that style will not do them any favors.
I love what troubas doing this series n playoffs
Trouba also had like 5 hits and 8 blocks. If he’s the weakest link then the Rangers should be the favorites to win it all.
Troubs did a couple Fat rails before puck drop, he settled down nicely in the 2nd OT…. Give him a break. Lol
I think both Trouba & Fox are playing hurt.. Both seem to struggle to skate
Honestly, I was hoping Apple would take the entire NHL package and give it the MLS treatment. $100 a year and no blackouts including playoffs. I had to subscribe to RUclips TV just to watch the playoff games as I am in San Diego. I think there is still a chance big tech steps in to buy the broadcasting rights because right now, it is a mess.
Trouba makes me nervous sometimes but I’ve liked his game in the playoffs overall.
His bad plays are masked thanks to Gus stepping up and forwards back checking. He was especially bad last game but he has been bad overall this season.
Rangers 5 on 5 game is fiiiine getting better every game how about kriedsMikaNRossi i liked how they produced these plaoyffs so far every line is getting after it i love this team man lets goooo Rangerrrs
The team who goes up 2-0 win the series 86% of the time, something to think about. LET'S GO RANGERS let's put Carolina to sleep and home till next yr.
Ok but we were directly responsible for losing not one but two 2-0 series in he last two years.
@@Mr.Eeeeeeeee correct Mr Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee, but I don't think this will happen this time around the Rangers are to locked in to win and show the NHL that there Legit.
@@user-pg8om6zn7w I hope you are right but again, this series is far from over. Canes can easily tie this up then the pressure is on us.
I don't mind Ray Ferraro, but that could be years of playing NHL on my Xbox lol. But ESPN's coverage is boring, TNT blows them out of the water and it isn't close. I miss Doc more and more every day tho.
Underrated horrible feature of ESPN coverage: keeping the only color commentator between the benches so their mic is on 100% of the time, picking up the sound from one specific spot in the building that gets mixed as commentary. It clashes weirdly with the ambient sound that’s lower down in the mix and I hate it. Just let Ferraro be in the booth with McDonough and have someone else between the benches for periodic check-ins.
Need to bring back Gary Thorn, and Bill Clement
he needs to get his shit together Trouba single handedly tried to sink our ship or he is on the take for vegas
Trouba is the worst defenseman we have. He has zero mobility and all he can do is block shots at this point. He has not made any big hits in months. Hopefully the Candy Canes do not realize this and exploit him.
The team was better without him. I hope they trade him in the off season
@@MrliftaleeI am afraid that won’t happen. He has a no move clause and his wife is a doctor in NY. We are stuck with him and that contract will be an albatross very soon. We can keep hiding him in situations but we’d better win before he completely deteriorates.
You can't exploit him now with the Rangers being up 3-0, and it's bye bye for the canes on Saturday. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I saw that when the flashed Canes Win on the boards. It reminded me of when they posted on the scoreboard RED SOX WIN!!! at Shea Stadium back during the 1986 World Series.
Not, the Mets are losers. 🤣🤣🤣
@user-pg8om6zn7w 1986 the Mets were not losers. They were the Champs!!
I agree, espn blows. They always have, even back in the day as their hockey coverage was always shyte.
I may trying syncing the AM broadcast to the tv as well
The refs have been handing out penalties left and right.. a little aggressively. Trouba is Blocking shots and sacrificing his body just as he should- and doing it well. No worries. Let's go blue.
People just like to complain. If the oilers didn't have McDavid they wouldn't be good. That's dumb analysis.
Rangers don't need to be great at 5v5 bc of special teams. It's a part of the game people. Would I like them to be a little better full strength? Sure but they don't need to be
Ray Ferraro is the worst and the other guy sucks too.
Trouba is damaged goods plan and simple.If you haven’t seen his game decline in the last two years then you’re watching a different game.He single almost destroyed game two.
