Does Vermette skate against the Rangers? Is he traded to Rangers? Chicago? elsewhere? Will Rangers be focused for the win? A game amidst rumors galore.
This game has all the makings of a 3-1 loss. Smith is playing great despite all the great chances we've had and defensively we look shaky.
Please just pull Talbot. Maybe it inspires the team to play better defensively but he's really struggling locating the puck all period. The first goal was awful, second goal he got caught cheating and playing the pass when he's supposed to play the shooter, and the third goal he lost the puck and couldn't find it. Like I said earlier though, this game has the feeling of a 3-1 loss with our team looking sloppy defensively, and Smith playing out of his mind tonight.
this idiot is never in a position to make a save, the first goal was shit, 94 you're right he got caught cheating on the second goal, and the third goal he let it go right through the 5 hole. I cant believe this guy is 7-1-2 letting in so many goals. If the offense wasnt clicking they would have been 2-7-1..
You shouldn't be calling this guy an idiot. He's done an amazing job as a backup goalie. You should be kissing his ass that he's given this team so much for so cheap the past 2 years.
Now that the site is back.....defense has played tighter for Talbot. Not great but better than the first.
can someone explain to me why the fourth line plays every other shift in third. No wonder we have sucked in this period.
My god, you guys bitch so much....take the points and be happy! It's their backup goalie going 8-1-2....If I told you when Hank went down with an injury that the Rangers would go 9-1-2 over their next 12 games you would've said there is no fucking way that could happen.
Now begins the real tough stretch starting with Philly on the road. Gotta play better to keep this pace.
