Rangers at Flyers

This PP is f'ing pathetic. Was rolling along and for some reason AV switched Boyle and McD, and it has been awful ever since.

 

Are we the only team that can't lift a puck over a goalie when he's down and out???? Ugh

 

I wouldn't get hung up on a NTC in the 2 year deal for Boyle. He wasn't getting traded this DL or summer anyway, so I don't see that as a big issue. He needs to play better, and I think he will. He has been hurt for nearly 6 weeks. Missed games sick twice. Let me see what he does in the playoffs and I will pass judgment.

And move him back to the 1st PP also. That was a terrible move by AV. PP has scored twice since.

 

The bigger issue with the PP is that we have no zone time because we keep losing the faceoff. We need to win a damn faceoff so we can get it setup.

 

We shortened the bench yet Tamner Glass still gets ice time. Unreal. What does he have on AV?? Seriously

 

And a faceoff guy. Seriously. We SUCK at faceoffs.

 

That will just about do it. What a frustrating game. We are the better team, but they took advantage of a terrible PP.

Now it is on Sather. What will he do. Will it be 2012 all over again...

 

Well that's the game. Awful loss. Can't lose games to these type of teams.

 

It's one game 94...relax. we are still in a great spot in the division.

 

Let me tell you why I am pissed though, didn't even get a sniff at the end. Nash with a moronic pass. Never even got setup. That pisses me off.

Anyway, is what it is. Now it is on Sather. And I will say again, this 6 game stretch concerns me. I said it yesterday as well. Off to an 0-1 start in a game we really never should have lost IMO.

Next two days should be fun.

 

This was an awful game by this team. PP needs A LOT of work. And for the love of God, can we just win a friggin PP faceoff already. We got like no pressure all PP, and we finished it off being just as inept with the extra skater.

 

This is the stretch that we really determine just how good we are. Playing a lot of good playoff caliber teams in a row.

And chuck, I realize its one game but it's a game that showed some of our weaknesses that we need to address. We need to get the PP rolling again and we need to figure out faceoffs. We did a good job in the third period, but of course lost a crucial faceoff on the PP.

 

I hear you 94, but not going to win every game. Isles lost at home to the Canes. Caps lost to the Canes last night. At least we lost to a team desperate for points, in their building where they are one of the best in the league.

I get being upset because of how we lost, I thought we played poorly and still could have/should have won, but is what it is. We are still in 1st clearly with games in hand factored in. Can't win every game. I am more focused on a** Sather doing SOMETHING by the DL and the next 5 very difficult games without Hank.
