    MSG has their 2 teams in playoffs and we have to watch it on ESPN, seriously? which has proven over and over how horrible they are on hockey coverage! Camera angles, announcing is a hot boring mess, cutting to another game, posting the wrong team winning at the wrong time! WHERE IS SAM ROSEN! The voice of the NYR!!!

    To Evans comment regarding the commentators for ESPN. Evan is completely wrong. We don't hate them because they are not Sam Rosen. We hate them cause they're bad. I never had one complaint about Doc doing the playoffs for a decade on NBC. He made it exciting regardless of what team you routed for. Sean McDonough, or whatever his name is, sounds like he's half asleep when he makes these calls.

    • @JavaBum
      @JavaBum Před 23 dny +2

      I agree. Gallant wanted his team to take it easy and skate through the last month of the season last year because they already locked up a playoff spot. They got embarrassed by the Devils. This year, they played hard all the way into the playoffs, and it's shown.

    They pulled a Heidi and I lost my mind, but beyond that the overall coverage by ESPN has been horrendous, their stupid ice level camera where you can't see either the ice or the puck, useless, when play is taking place they're showing closeups of guys sitting on the bench. Somebody needs to be fired and a producer/director who UNDERSTANDS THE GAME OF HOCKEY be installed, it's really pathetic...

    Trouba doesnt launch himself and the elbow doesnt come up if Neces doesnt hit the deck like that. If Necas is upright, its a hard hit to letters. Necas bails out and Trouba has to obviously go over him instead of skating right into him and brace from the wall impact. I do agree that it looks worse and hilarious when he's whiffing on air though.

    You're wrong about 'Intent to Injure'. If a Trouba makes contact on that hit and the officials determine the hit was dangerous then a major penalty (5 min + Game Misconduct) will be called on the ice. If the officials determine that there was a deliberate attempt to injure on the play then the major becomes a Match penalty (5 min + Game Misconduct + Supplemental Discipline after review by Player Safety.) He missed the hit entirely. Nothing to discuss.

Would have been a shoulder to the chest textbook hit otherwise. Obviously not a dirty hit but also no intent neither. Evan is a complete troll when it comes to the Rangers.

    Trouba wasn’t going for anyone’s head. And it wasn’t a “spearing” motion. You can clearly see from the height he hit the boards that his check was aimed at the chest and the only reason he turned into a human missile is because the Carolina player ducked at the last second instead of taking the hit. Of course he’s going to jump over him instead of cutting him up with his skates.
