team. It doesn't matter who it is. That happened to be kreider, right? It could be anybody. These moments happen all through the stanley cup playoffs and they make it so incredible. >> John: they've been making a lot of comparables here in new york to the rangers' run of '94 with this team and fittingly just showed michael j. Fox as new york wants to do a little back to the future here. >> Garry: they were hoping the knicks were going to join them because in '94, they made it to the conference finals, but unfortunately, they bowed out. These two teams are kind of a wash. A lot of numbers are close. It's going to come down to execution, goaltending and getting the bounces. You have to get the bounces to win a series when you're this tight together. And at the end of the day and not even in that order, but that's what has to happen for you to take control of the series. >> John: fox goes after it. Verhaeghe, right around by barclay goodrow. Knocked out at centre. Lindgren racing after it. Cuylle follows up. Can't get to the loose puck first. Verhaeghe is there so he runs in to him. It's knocked free and comes right back. Shot point and whoa, right in front. Nearly a deflection there. Mikkola can't get it out. Schneider trying to get it through. Another drop on the wing goes wide. Hustling after it on the boards, trocheck trying to get there. Now it's picked up by gustafsson. He'll hand it back to the line. Schneider with a shot and into the glove of bobrovsky. >> Garry: the rangers get their fourth line out against florida's second line and the fourth line does a nice job. Little mishandle by verhaeghe and all of a sudden it's coming to the net. Montour loses possession on vesey and vesey does the right thing. When you're battling in the corner, get to the front of the net. You're not going to score on bobrovsky unless you are all around him and making life chaotic for him, getting in his eyes, crossing his vision and through the traffic, depth screening. That's how you will score goals against a guy like bobrovsky. >> John: panarin chips it into the corner. Ekblad fired it up the wing. Stopped by trocheck. Lafreniere has got it. He'll roll it around to the point. Trouba gives it back to lafreniere and off his stick and back to his own zone. Miller off the wing for lafreniere. Crossing in with it. Tried to swing it back, tipped away. Reinhart is on it. Reinhart goes one on one against trouba. Back towards the net. Now the rangers will settle it down. Trocheck feeds it back to the goal and miller has got it. >> Garry: that's a perfect example of not throwing the puck away. Panarin can panic and get it up the wall and out of the zone. Instead, he realizes he's behind him, he bumps it back and they come out together. >> John: bennett cut off by lindgren. Backhand it around. Roslovic and ahead for ekman-larsson and sends him flying. Kulikov ruffled it. Kulikov up for ekman-larsson. Play it over for bennett. Tipped into the rangers zone and shesterkin let's it go for fox. Around for roslovic who was hit by rodrigues and zibanejad bumped at centre. Luostarinen was in there. Lindgren will take it back and slow things down for the rangers. Here comes chytil with it. Chytil nifty move, drags the puck. Can't get the shot away. Lomberg will clear it back out. Knocked down and fired it up by gustafsson. Back to centre. Couldn't come up with it. Lomberg for the panthers. Tipped it free for stenlund behind the net. Around to cousins, throws it in front. Tipped wide of the goal. Lomberg goes after it. Now back onto the wing is wennberg, stenlund on the loose puck. Wennberg tried to knock it free. Stenlund's got it. Feeds the line. Mikkola dumps it wide. Lomberg with the shot and it's stopped. Mikkola off for cousins. Dumped down for stenlund. Hands it off, montour... Get it down low, gustafsson got it over, back of the net for tkachuk. Blocked by schneider. Montour knocks it back in. Tkachuk had it go off his skate. Schneider comes up with it and he will get it out as the rangers got stuck there for over a minute. Verhaeghe in tight. Great chance, tkachuk tried to settle it up for lundell and it's wide. Back the other way! Panarin drops it, trocheck follows up. In, lafreniere off the pad of bobrovsky and taken away by forsling as he'll tear it out. Lafreniere landed right in front of his stick, so he swiped it out to centre and ekblad was up

and in. Now another miscue here. Trouba missed it. Tarasenko with a chance, first penalty of the series coming up and it will be a hooking call sending the florida panthers to the powerplay after trouba goes to the box. >> Minor penalty hooking. >> John: great chance for the panthers with verhaeghe to tkachuk in the ( ) a financial plan should include weekend plans.

Try Tims new Flatbread Pizza. It's time for Tims >> Shawn: ryan lomberg and nick cousins were inserted into the lineup in game six versus the boston bruins, brought a ton of energy and lomberg with a really good chance from the slot. I would have liked to see see verhaeghe shooting that. Good job by miller to take that away and lafreniere with a good chance on the high slot, bobrovsky with the save and there's a look at the hook by trouba. The new york rangers defense corps made three turnovers in the last shift and a half. You know. You can't make turnovers from behind your goal line out into the front of your net area or the tops of the circles. That's just disastrous and the last one leading to a penalty. >> John: so the florida panthers on the powerplay as verhaeghe on the draw, barkov got it down low. Reinhart was stopped, back around the wing. Verhaeghe is on it. Reinhart throws it around the boards, tkachuk is there. Tkachuk down for barkov, centred in front, tipped away and montour has to go back to centre to get it. Florida powerplay has been great on the road in these playoffs. 6-17 at 35.3%. Reinhart set by lindgren back of the net, reinhart comes up with it, got it to the point, montour holds on. Now played it off. Carter verhaeghe with it. Over to montour, watched by goodrow. Back for verhaeghe with a shot towards the net. Tkachuk goes after it. Back for verhaeghe. Across for montour. Montour waiting, tried to get that one through. Lindgren will get it. Brandon montour dumps it back for sam bennett. He'll carry it up ice as bennett brings it in. Drops it across for tarasenko off his stick. It will come to centre and tkachuk is there. Bennett quick pass for tarasenko. Now back to ekman-larsson. Works it in deep. Tarasenko can't catch up to it. Schneider was there and now it's picked up. Tkachuk in front, taken away by kreider and kreider will do it. Half a minute to go in the powerplay. Ekman-larsson with it. Ekman-larsson brings it in around the glass, rodrigues works it off the boards, got it for bennett. Chopped back for rodrigues. Lost the handle on it. Down the ice by vesey. >> Garry: there's that a aggressive penalty killing of the rangers. Both teams are aggressive on the penalty kill. They will come after you hard and they already have other players going to where you think you're going. >> John: ekblad fired it on net, shesterkin with the save. It will be an icing call but the rangers kill off the powerplay. >> Garry: so once the first guy presses, there's already a second guy going to where he thinks the puck is going. Your time gets taken away.

once you step out in front of the panthers, you have to make sure you get the puck. Fox tips that to the corner and this shot from montour, he steps that out in front, gets it with his foot. It never gets through to the net. If it does get through, you're looking at florida having first crack at it as you see ekblad's shot from the bottom of the circle hits shesterkin in the right shoulder. >> John: cousins knocked over off the faceoff by trouba and cousins now is going to the florida bench. He's shook up after that play. Trouba holds on to it. Thought about going out. Going to stay behind the net. Watched by luostarinen. Gets it up on to the wing and across the blue line. Braden schneider will feed it over for gustafsson. Ekblad trying to tip it away. Panarin fought it in. Ekblad has it back. Off the boards and verhaeghe tried to track it down, but schneider is on it. Plays it up the middle, tkachuk comes in with a big hit! He lined up trocheck and got him! Trocheck played it around for schneider. Bumped by lundell, and lafreniere can't get it out. Tkachuk for lundell with a shot and [Indiscernible] lafreniere is out of the way. Puck cleared out by gustafsson. Panarin up ahead for lafreniere, tried to knock it down and he got the shot on net but bobrovsky makes the stop. >> Garry: well, you know with jacob trouba, when you play against him, you got to know where he is. There's some blood on the lip of cousins. He went off right here. The stick comes up off the draw and he clips cousins much. It's a missed call. He went straight off and here's the hit by tkachuk. You already know that matthew tkachuk is feeling better because we did not see this in games four, five, or six in the last series. So you knew there was something going on with him. In this game already, he's elected to put the hit on and you know trocheck felt that one. >> John: wennberg takes the draw against reinhart. Wennberg tossed out. Chytil will step in in his place. Scramble off the draw, goes to the boards. Wennberg breaks free with it. Wennberg back to the point for miller off his stick and he's forced out at centre. Barkov's all over him. Ekman-larsson back in his own line, up ahead, and it's tipped in by reinhart. Trouba goes after it. Tarasenko in on the forecheck. Puck cleared down the ice. Kulikov goes to get it. Filip chytil chasing after kulikov. Tarasenko helps it out. Lindgren has got it. He'll flip it back in. Roslovic after it in the corner. Ekman-larsson in there as well. Luostarinen up for it for florida. Gets to centre. Lindgren had it lined up coming across the red line as kreider tried to jump around ekblad but bennett's on it. Ekman-larsson had a little trouble handling that short pass. Rangers get it back at centre. Lindgren for fox. Played ahead for zibanejad who's cut off by bennett as rodrigues will slide it over for luostarinen with his shot right on steered away by shesterkin. Fox in a battle with rodrigues. Knocked loose, vesey tried to settle it down. Rodrigues up with the puck. Tied up by fox. Rodrigues got it loose. Lomberg with a chance, it goes wide. Montour going off it. Bumped by kreider. Puck comes around for lindgren and he'll send it down the ice as cousins is back out for florida and he'll work it ahead for stenlund who's checked by barclay goodrow. Gustafsson fired it around, mikkola back down and chance for barclay goodrow to carry it in. Dropped it off for vesey. Can't get it by stenlund, good stick, and stenlund will play it back out. >> Garry: when you have two teams so defensively structured, they kill off the penalties. Both teams very good at it. >> John: both these teams still feeling themselves out here in game one as lafreniere does a little bobbling with the puck here. ( )It isn't how much you invest.
