I am always bagging on Nash but jesus christ give me a reason to root for you man, playing hard just isn't enough at this stage of the game and at that salary. That salary is a cap destroyer if it is wasted on someone who does not play up to it.
Our team lacks balls. All there is to it. Instead of checking and using their body, our guys try to use their sticks and poke at the puck while they also skate away from contact. Can't do that against an aggressive team like the Kings. They'll take advantage of it, like they have all series long. Need to be aggressive and fight for every puck and go into the dangerous areas and win puck battles. Instead, we let them get those loose pucks and then try to defend them with simple stick checks instead of being physical.
Nash Stepan Kreider and especially Richards and Nash have been pretty bad this series. Amazing how crappy they are playing offensively Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Same old same old. Had enough good shots to have 3 or 4 goals again but can't even put the puck on the net for quick to even make a save. Don't know what I'm more tired of AV's determination to be loyal to richards on the PP no matter what or every time the puck deep on his side fucking girardi is crawling around the ice like a friggin 1 legged man. And nice king goal hank stops 2 shots from 2 feet out but the third on from 5 feet beats him. Our defense scares nobody in the crease.
Kreider has avoided really driving to the net ever since he hurt Price. It got in his head which is really hurting his game.
LOS ANGELES -- Despite a 1- for-17 mark through four games in the Stanley Cup Final, Rangers coach Alain Vigneault wasn't contemplating any changes of personnel on the power play. "Our power play has had some good looks. It obviously hasn't finished," he said a few hours before Game 5 Friday night. "You could say Benoit Pouliot's goal, their guy was stepping on the ice, close to a power-play goal. It's had some good looks, some good shots. You have to show trust and confidence in your guys that they'll get it done for you. Hopefully they will tonight."
He acts like the series is tied 1 a piece or something lol, show trust and confidence? Really? That time is long gone...make a few changes or the series is over TONIGHT!
This is gonna be another 3-0 game unfortunately, unless we really start pressing and have our "stars" start playing like stars.
And THATS why Stralman doesn't deserve shit. FUCKING HIT THE GUY!!!! Stop sliding around out there for no reason.
