Why are you comparing Kreider to Subban? They don't even play the same position.

Ridiculous comparison.

Because Subban is supposed to be Montreal's star and he had done little. You stated that Kreider hadn't done much, so I pointed out that he had been better than your "star". Not sure why that was so hard to figure out.

That was just a horrific display of goaltending. 10 goals with quite a few weak ones. If Hank keeps playing like that, the Rangers won't win anything.

The short-side goals are a bit tough to swallow, but in all honesty, the team in front of him wasn't playing great. I'd expect Hank to be more than fine in game 6.

First six minutes they were just trying to run all of the Habs and ended up getting out of position, and then there were a lot of points in the game where they just looked a step slow/sluggish...much like they did in the middle of that Penguins series.

The Rangers are still the better team, and I don't think its really all that close to be honest. But, especially in hockey, the better team doesn't always win.

Do you condone the 'do whatever it takes to get a PP' style of "your boys"?

Subban is embarrassing the league and LOL at Pleckanic.
Its kind of crazy how, even though they called the embellishment on Plekanec, Subban flopped on that "slewfoot" just a couple minutes later. Guess he just figured "Hey, they can't call all of them" or something.

Rangers have a model, Habs have a bunch of actors. Whatever.

yawn, good thing you guys play the right away according to Vigneault, after all you would never hit late (hi John), never run goalies hey there Kreider, Zuccarello and Nash, never complain to the refs (Hey Stepan and Vigneault, what is up) and never embellish (Zuccarello in game 2 says hello)

and Bourque has been better than your start Nash, what's your point? at least if you understood hockey you would compare players that play the same position

You're right. I don't understand hockey. Nash is our star? Ok...wow. Btw I didn't say the Rangers were saints. No hockey player is a saint. The constant acting BS is pathetic. Don't make this personal. I've avoided that.

Whose a bigger star at forward than he is? Use St Louis if you want, Bourque has more goals than him in the series.

Hell Bourque has outplayed Lundquist too I guess.

If you want to compare players, they need to play the same position. If you want to say McDonagh has played better than Subban that is fine, to compare a forward to a dman, you can't do it.

Dude, your were bashing "Chrissy Kreider" and I responded by pointing out that he has outplayed (not saying outscored) your biggest name player. McDonough has certainly outplayed Subban, but that wasn't the point. Lundqvist had been good until last game. All goalies sucked last game. Bourque has played great. Nobody is disputing that. My responses have basically just been shooting down your nonsense. You say "model" and I point out that your guys have been acting and embellishing to the point of embarrassment. They look like soccer players out there.

Your King Henrik has been described as having model looks before. He is considered super sexy by most observers.

I don't know what to say in response to this. The "super sexy" part did make me laugh so I thank you for that. Obviously the "model" comment was made in a mocking type of way (like people do with Tom Brady - I get it). The "actor" response was just clever in my opinion. I hope the rest of the series is just good, clean hockey with minimal injuries, bad calls, crazy bounces, etc. That's all.

It literally is a "system" they play. Price does it as much as anyone. It is fascinating to watch other players/coaches/fans calling them out yet again on the same stuff Bruins players//coaches/fans have been saying for years. Even the media was calling them out on it last night. You know it is bad when Ron freakin McLain is talking about it on Hockey Night in Canada!

Many teams have THAT guy. The habs train them all to be that guy and their fans cheer and clap and want more more more.

Oh please, that is ridiculous. We train our players to embellish?

We do not embellish any more than other teams, our coach just has more class than guys like Vigneault and Julien who whine about it whenever they lose to us.

I would never accuse the Rangers of teaching embellishment like what Zuccarello did to get a penalty on Galchenyuk in game 2.

Then again, maybe the Rangers teach their players to spray snow on the flag bearers that stand where our players come out.

Moore suspended two games for his hit on Weise

A fair suspension given Prust got the same two games for his hit on Stepan

No suspension for Dorsett for headbutting Weaver.

Coach with more class? What a load of crap. His comments about knowing where Brassard's injury was was classless. He also flip-flopped on the Kreider play after saying it wasn't intentional/dirty. He has come off like a jerk. You keep mentioning Zucc's embelleshment. How many have the Canadiens had (mostly uncalled)?! What a joke. Everyone is talking about because it keeps happening with these actors. The Montreal coach, players, and fans sound like idiots.

Vigneault = no class, simple as that.

he was all upset over the Prust hit, then with his own player said, oh there shouldn't be a supsension as Moore is not that kind of guy, it was a hockey play. How was that hit different from Prust on Stepan.

Anyway, amazing how all you guys came out of the woodwork lately. Too bad you cheer for that team.

You still should win unless you choke big time tomorrow night.
Moore, for one, has never been suspended so, no, he isn't that kind of player. Prust has always played on the edge and been suspended before. On top of that, the timing of Moore's hit was almost half a second before Prust's...and on top of that, Prust didn't even get a penalty in the game.
