They were manhandled again but yet again had a chance to win it in the end. And this time it was a calamity of errors at the worst possible time by a variety of people that did them in . Starting with about 7 seconds let in regulation when Kakko was blatantly tripped and then elbowed in the head while he was sliding on the ground....no call. Mika with an incredibly stupid turnover. The Rangers changing both defensemen, during the long change period, before the puck was even in the offensive zone, Trouba doing whatever the hell he was doing right before the goal was scored. Seriously go back and watch that play and tell me what in the holy hell Trouba thought he was doing.
With the way the Rangers penalty kill has been recently I almost wished in real time that they had just awarded a penalty shot. I think Igor on a penalty shot is a better chance of denial than the Rangers on the penalty kill at this point.
Having said that, they did get the split in Florida like we needed them to do. It wasn't pretty but they got it. Now they better win Game 5. Cause I really don't see how they're going back into this building and winning Game 6.
