    Cam was also a little soft with that rebound. That's the one issue I see with Cam, his rebound control isn't the best.

    Played better as the period went on, now we need to score a goal. 0 goals the last 4 periods, and 1 empty net goal the past 6 periods.

    Looks like the old Rangers...:).

    That's game. My lord that was pathetic. The D backed off Krug big time and yet there was STILL a guy all alone in front...wow. How do you go from looking so good to looking awful now for 2 straight games. That was real sad.

    Two months ago I watched this team come back from down 3-0 in the third after looking straight up dreadful the first 40 minutes, yet here we are with the savants declaring the game over at the halfway mark down 2.

    Now St. Louis blows a huge chance.

    Oh yeah I think this one game is over Prod. I don't see this team scoring 3 goals tonight. Sure I can be wrong, but I think the %'s are high we aren't scoring 3 tonight. Bad matchup tonight against a hot team with no Stepan and our backup goalie in.

    Nothing big about the season, but yeah I think this one game is over.

    With that said, you want to get back in the game with a chance to win, score on this PP.

    Far too many good chances blown. Now a double minor to kill. It will be five periods without a goal.

    Boyle has to start getting more point shots, and it would be nice to see McD step up offensively. He's been just average this year.

    They have had their chances. Just not going in. Nash needed to hit the corner on the breakaway.

    Watch their body language after they keep hitting posts.
    Nuff said.

    McD has not been just average this year. The guy is a +12 into tonight, and would be on pace for about 40 points over 82 games. I think I would have wanted more like 45-50 or so points from him, but he has not been average. Come on now.

    You are funny sc. You like who you like, and if you don't you will nitpick them.

    I like McDonagh, alot, but i don't see him making enough of a difference this year.

    I don't think he has been a stud outside of that stretch around the Holiday's, but no way has he been average. He has still been very good, just not great game in and game out.

    BTW...outside of the first 6 minutes or so, and one awful play on the Bruins 2nd goal, I think the Rangers have actually played okay. They simply have not been able to score and cash in on their chances.

    Another breakdown in their own zone. Tomorrow night is a real big game. Don't want to come off of 13 wins in 14 games and drop 3 straight, and then have to play in Pitt with a quick turnaround to Sunday at 12:30. Could be 4 straight L's before you know it.
