Bolts 3 3rd Period Goals Best Rangers In Tampa | New York Knicks

Well Steve we talked before the game about how this could be a potential first round playoff matchup we knew the lightning wanted to make a point Braden Point made six Nikita kucherov made five and the lightning beat the Rangers 63 you know one thing we talked about

Before the game was could the top six for the Rangers saw off the top six of the Tampa Bay Lightning and allow the depth players to chip in and what we found out was that what should have most likely have been a low event second half

Of the game was a wakeup call for the Rangers because the star players in particular the grinding star player of Braden Point took over he was involved in every goal and played a big role in every goal every play was Allstar caliber and they tried the Rangers one-on-one and off the rush they

Dominated them and there’s a lot to be learned from this game because you learn that you can’t play a style that doesn’t fit the postseason with a team that performs at that level with those Star Play players I think the Rangers if they had a doover they wouldn’t attack the

Way that they did they could have played a little bit more of an in zone settled offensive game rather than going wagon Hockey style back and forth and no surprise with his fourth career hattrick the Jersey Mike subab Player of the night is Braden Point his third hattrick

This year first time he’s ever had six points in a game he gets to goals 34 35 and 36 a plus three rating on on the night which is rather surprising now 73 points in all on the season may be forgotten in the fact that it was 63 and

Braen point contributed to all six is the fact that the Rangers let it two nothing Midway through the game they also took a 3-2 lead early in the third period Jack rosik with his first goal as a New York Ranger that is going to be our CDW film room play and Steve’s going

To step you through how he gave the Rangers the lead the one consistent thing we’ve seen with Ross levik is he uses his speed on the four check and it really does help the Rangers Top Line of krider and zaban Jad rosic is going and

He can keep Pace with these two guys and they really do have three burners krider’s able to get in first and that pressure it it helps the Rangers get the puck but also to make the next important play rosic very smart here because he backs up he adds length to vasileski now

Vasileski if Ros leix stayed where he was he would have had a travel four feet he Mak some travel 12 and that opens up the upper part of the net and that’s why it was success there for Rosel yeah so now the Rangers three game winning streak is over they turn their attention

A little bit more North they’ll go to Pittsburgh on Saturday and then face the Islanders on Sunday in a pair of nationally televised games where do you sense things changed or is it too early to kind of have any hindsight no I just thought we uh we got

Away from what we had been doing and we were putting the puck behind him and going to work and um to be honest I thought they had a lot of trouble with us through 30 minutes and um we kind of started turning some pucks over and feeding their transition and their you

Know high-end guys made made a couple plays and um yeah I just thought the turnovers at the end of the second um is where the momentum started to turn in general the way the third period unfolded how to ESS didn’t come out strong uh um you

Know we weren’t happy with the last 10 minutes of the second and um needed a a push to to start the third but um you know we got the goal but uh after that I I didn’t think we uh we had you know enough sustained time in their ends um

But um you know kind of good lesson for us going forward here um you know the the playoff games have a lot of momentum swings and we got to learn to manage that and um the first 30 minutes of the game was probably a good template for us

Going forward that’s how we have to play we continue from inside the blue shirts bar presented by Bud Light easy to drink easy to enjoy on Game Day John G and own Steve alette things were going swimmingly for everybody eigor shurin was up to 166 and a half minutes of

Shutout hockey then five goals in his next 22 and this game completely turned Steve all good things come to an end and nothing lasts forever uh look vzy I thought said it very well he said we learned a lesson but it wasn’t a lesson it was a reminder a reminder that when

It’s going really well don’t take your foot off the gas stick to the game plan I know it’s more fun to play off the rush High event hockey but you’re not going to have sustained success that way you played into Tampa Bay strengths they would know that now if there’s one thing

I learned after this game is that the first round is not going to be a tap in it’s going to be a battle it’s going to be their best against the Rangers best we saw pieces of that tonight and good news even pours in postgame for the

Lightning because the Red Wings lost the Islanders lost those are the teams chasing them Braden Point had six points in a six3 win

The Bolts were able to over come a 2-0 deficit as well as a 3-2 deficit with 3 consecutive goals in the third to defeat the Rangers 6-3. Brayden Point had a hat trick and Nikita Kucherov had a 5 point night with a goal and 4 assists. The Rangers look to rebound against the Penguins on Saturday.
