<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>MONTREAL (AP) -Michael Ryder and Alex Kovalev each scored twice and the Montreal Canadiens staged the biggest comeback in their storied history, rallying from five goals down to beat the New York Rangers 6-5 in a shootout Tuesday night. Saku Koivu beat Henrik Lundqvist with a forehand deke on Montreal's second shootout attempt and Cristobal Huet stopped Brendan Shanahan, Chris Drury and Jaromir Jagr to the delight of the sold-out Bell Centre crowd of 21,273. Montreal stormed back from a 5-0 deficit early in the second with five unanswered goals.</div> Link Huge comeback.
That was an absolute embarrassment...up 5-0 after the first and even up 5-2 after two periods wasn't too bad. This is why the Rangers will not be a top tier team in the East (yes I am a Ranger fan). They are too unpredictable and can never be consistent week in and week out. One week we will score 4 goals a game then the next week we'll maybe put 1 goal in a game and our defense is even more inconsistent lately. Makes me think we won't even make the playoffs, but we'll see. Either way at best we'll only win in the 1st round.
The comeback was pure sickness man! Too bad we couldn't hang on against the Pens yesterday. 10 goals against in the last two games, that's unacceptable. We better beat Columbus tomorrow!
