    Detroit is a defensive style hockey club. Rangers are all about speed. Just hope their defense tightens up.
    Should be very entertaining. Go Rangers.

    It has been a very good game. Howard has stopped the Rangers on several excellent chances.

    Figured as much. Howard has been the story of this game..........so far. Looks like this will be a one
    goal victory.

    Another game where they dominate but have nothing to show for it on score sheet.

    Those missed pp's were costly.

    Howard has been solid but they have missed on a ton of chances. The latest being sent to the glass instead of hitting the net.

    This Pirri experiment may be ending soon when Lindberg is back. Yes I know he shoots the puck. Love ziba but he misses too many shots.

    Rick Nash cannot have seven shots in a game and no goals.

    McDonagh sucks moose dick offensively. AV needs to grow a brain and stop putting him out there. Team still needs to trade Nash for a real offensive defenseman.

    Played good but they can't use the hot goaltender excuse for these games. They fucked up on great scoring chances

    Yup, too many scoring chances completely blown. On the bright side you will still win many more than you lose with efforts like this. Just frustrating when this should've been a 4-2 or 5-2 win.

    Should have Clendening out there in those last minute situations. McDonagh just overthinks and is too stiff.

    McDonagh had one chance in particular tonight where he should've one timed the pass instead of holding and waiting to shoot.

    They usually have a few of these where they outchance the team and then lose on a dumb play in the 3rd. One of the many 'trademarks'.

    Can only move on. The two loses have been unfortunate but I'll take efforts like this every game because those chances will start going in as well.

    Similar to the StLouis game in some ways.

    They are badly outplaying opponents. So that is good. It's 4 games. However, still missing something on the back end.
