If he's a piece of crap scoring that's ok with me. Waaaay too much pressure from LA. Kreider snakebit again on Quick but a huge pp coming up.
Most goals allowed less than 5 minutes at the end of the game. Yep this team is going to do some major damage in the playoffs. BTW...So sick of this ugly ass kings team and their ugly coach.
This coach is a fucking detriment to this team. He really is. He does the same stupid shit every single game they end up losing like they did tonight. All I saw is the fourth line every other shift in the third. The idiot never learns.
Really f'ing stupid icing by Yandle and of course it ends up badly. All things considered im happy they at least got a point but yet another point lost in the last few minutes.
so many stupid losses they've had this year is ridiculous at this point. Why this coach goes into defensive shell every single game they are up by one in the third is beyond me.
I don't think they aimed to go into a shell, it's more that LA shut them down and pretty controlled play in the 3rd. You could feel it coming.
Another OT loss vs the Kings. That's 2 this year not to be confused w the 3 they had in Finals couple years ago. At some point you need some luck in OT which never happens playing LA.
Why AV does not throw a tantrum at goalie interference goal? I don't get this guy. At some point the players are going to start losing faith in him. He just does not backup his players, and per Mark and Hank looks like there is no set rule on goalie interference, why not go and put our guy into the crease and shoot at the net. If that is how the game is called, then play by the same rules, but AV turns the other cheek. So tired of this shit.
If there's one thing this team has to shore up heading into the playoffs is how things have changed from previous seasons when they're playing with the lead. They used to be a lock to win especially with a third period lead. Too many times this year have we seen teams tie the game immediately after the Rangers score or score in general right after the Rangers score. Last night the Rangers take a 1-0 lead and it's tied 19 seconds later. Hayes gives them a 3-1 lead and it's 3-2 two minutes later.
Same old shit all season with these last minute losses that should be victories. Probably around 10 at this point. Hank needs to realize that unless dylan is out there (not happening because on occasions he escapes the press box he usually doesn't play last 5 to 10 minutes of games) he needs to start getting guys out of there by whacking the shit out of the back of there legs with that goalie stick of his. Go watch some billy smith tapes. Think Kopitar is standing there with billy smith? he'd have a broken leg by now. Skill wise, the rangers can play with all these teams. The problem is they don't have the physical balls especially on defense to hold off the other team. This all being said the ref call that kopitar was being held in by Mcd is laughable.The next time Mcd holds someone in or out will be the first time he holds someone in or out. And as I've said in the past its past time AV gets his ass kicked out of a game or at least throws a tirade like the other coaches do that get fucked on a call and lets the refs know they'll be called out on the constant shit they call.
Mel with all due respect this is not 1982. It's like asking why guys like Dave Schultz aren't running around jumping people.
Mess, not talking about 1982. Just want Hank to make things uncomfortable for all these guys that set up camp in the goal area that other teams defenseman don't allow to happen.
I understand what you're saying but that's not today's game. I know what Billy Smith would've done or Hextall would've done. But that was a different time and well before the blue crease. The idea was that that was the goalie's area and it was up to the ref's to enforce it. The problem I see if they do it selectively.
Are there any goalies out there doing that?...no....you think a world class goalie is going to stoop to bush league shit..no..if anything he needs to slam his dmen in the room and tell them to start manning the fuck up
