Grabner is not done yet …with scoring. Mika will pick where he left before trauma, Nash is good as he could, Staal notwithstanding, we have finally the original, planned roster, so, future is bright and promising again. Or is it? I’m very excited, for change…
I don’t want to blame Lundqvist on the second one but even I knew that pass was coming through. He should’ve pushed out to the guy in front’s stick amd limited the shot. Not good all around I guess.
The with the breakout pass for the third. And another D breakdown. And more soft goaltending, even if he did keep them at 1-0 for a while. Got to get out of town and get something going in Toronto.
Also what happened to the speedy team supposed to get the puck when dumped into offensive zone? That so rarely works. Why do they bother with that play?
I was going to say the period turned on The’s moronic penalty, but the Stars were handing the Rangers’ asses to them well before that, right from the second set of shifts. The moronic penalty sure didn’t help, though. Starting games well at home seems beyond their grasp for the moment.
I know they have been this season, Norm. But they are all around sucking right now. I don’t expect them to just flip the switch because they’re on the road. These guys have some serious soul searching to do.
I said it the other night, if Lundqvist is the rangers every game goalie now because of the injury to raanta, the rangers could find themselves out of the top 8 in a month.
game on mute on iPad while doing work – sigh – this team has issues
.
IMHO they give up the puck too easily – need to have more patience, not just play cycle game with blind passes behind.
I thought AV should have gone after stanley cup run. You don’t play prevent defense and not hold a lead have to go into OT that many times and expect to win a cup
I relented give another season now….
Look – Staal hasn’t found net in 5 years. He can’t keep the puck in unless it comes directly to him. He’s slow. He has a problem getting back and when he gets there, he plays shuffleboard. His next serious hit or even serious bump of an opponent will be his first.
coos, I respect that you’re going to keep pushing this shuffleboard theme, and it’s cute, but the guy’s having a good year by just about everyone’s estimate but your own.
Not only are they blowing us out of our own home, they’re also pushing us around and denigrating us verbally. If this were my college team, I would transfer.
Don’t want to be too dramatic, but it is a real disaster. This is Rangers Pearl Harbor. With unpredictable, but definitely bad consequences. Big time, no excuse Embarrassment!
E3, you’ve got the review on this one? Unless there’s another volunteer?
I’m sorry. I’ve been so swamped at work that I get home late, listening to the radio, and then I’m doing kid bedtime routine through the second period.
This is an embarrassment. Not to us but to themselves. It looks like no-one of these guys every played together before amd they all hate each other. No grit. No nothing. At the very least this game should piss you off enough to beat up some guys. Wtf?
Thunderous boos, even from this usually disinterested, cell-phone jerked crowd. Years ago, three guys would come down from the old blue seats and beat the chit out of anyone in skates and a Ranger uniform who tried to get through the tunnel.
AV: ‘We had a good practice yesterday and I thought we had some good looks tonight. Couple of obvious errors maybe, but the puck wasn’t bouncing our way. I won’t dwell on it. We’ll get ’em tomorrow. That’s it guys?”
Matt Murray – 7 goals on 28 shots.
Sieveqvist – 7 goals on 27 shots.
He’s got a whole period left to do better….or worse…much, much worse.
Which one’s more likely?
Every defenseman should be forced to donate tonight’s salary to the Garden of Dreams Foundation, with some of the money set aside for a therapist for #30.
With absolutely no one to stick up for him all season, the new kid from BC might be permanently scarred and never live up to his talent. I think he’s been intimidated.
Duguay is never properly prepared these days and basically just goes through the motions, but when he played, pretty as he was, he took no crap, and there was plenty of it back then.
Post game in buffalo yesterday Benn was way critical of team but when asked about his own play he said it’s not made for tv what I want say about how bad my play has been.
I’m just catching up….love Roussel!
–
Also love the av and hank apologists here, spare me!!
–
2nd stars goal bad play by Holden, all skjel had to do was take the body and separate the star from the puck but he went all staal and no body contact.
–
3rd goal zucc just lost
–
4th goal shows why skjel is going to be a good NHL D man…in a couple of years. Kid is lost in The D zone. No wonder his partners always have skjelitis.
Bookies don’t care about lines, only that they get relatively even money both ways. Too many people start betting one way, they change the odds to entice money the other way.
Can’t bring myself to read everything- too crazy. But I have a serious question. Can Lundqvist go to Hartford for a conditioning stint? Seems like he really needs some work away from the bright lights…I’m also getting really worried that there is something physically wrong with him. Yuck. But at least it’s 7-6 so LGR!
People worried about Kreider breaking his hand…? Really?! I mean can’t afford to have a guy like Chris Stewart on your roster because fast might lose his roster spot.
Dat wiz so bad I taut I saw Melo skatin out there. It’s a joke cuz Melo is garbage too. Just like the goalie we had again tonight (we should trade him. He’s no good) so we played so bad I thought it was funny to say one of the Knicks (who also stink) was playing. Hahahahaha. That’s good stuff there. Lol
Anybody else noticed that every single point put up by a forward was either on the 1st or 2nd line? Where was our depth in this one? Like we should be worrying about that. Lol
Klein was best D man tonight, not saying much, but the best of a bad group.
–
Asshat coach needs to leave klein with mcdonut until we trade for an actual partner for mcdonut.
Imagine what it must be like to be a Ranger forward knowing it may take 5 goals a night to get 2 points! I don’t care how bad the D is gotta sit Lundqvist! Focus and confidence obviously gone! 8.5 mil.?
I thought it was suicide when the rangers (sather) extended Lundqvist to all those years for 8.5. I wanted the rangers to trade lundqvist at the time and said so and got killed on here. How is that looking now folks.
AV: “We’re not blocking the passes in front of our net.” A large part of the PROBLEM is that we are pathetically playing shuffleboard and not taking the man in front of Henrik, and AV seems to condone this. I’m losing patience with him.
As this game sets in, I care less about the loss & more about the balless reaction to being intimidated by the likes of Benn and others. This team has no heart, except maybe Zucarrello.
Hall of Fame Anson Carter and his posse discussing pros and cons of making rules more lax to increase scoring in NHL. We give up 7 or 8 with the rules as they are; without a bunch of them, we give up 18.
How bad has it become? The likes of a Jamie Benn takes over our ice, hollering, hitting, and cursing at our players for three periods and nada is done to shut him up. That’ how bad.
THE with the Gordie Howe hat trick tonight. Got to play Mr. Softee and hope he figures it out. The alternative outcome is unthinkable. If Hank is done we could be staring into theabyss.
Avery? Plz…Rangers fans dont deserve a player like Avery. He gave his spleen for this franchise and probably one of the best memories of all time (see: Avery rule) but fans turned on him for some sloppy comments. Pathetic.
