    I will say this...not a fan of the night game. Seems to be more shadows on the ice...puck is bouncing a lot more than on Sunday

    Would be nice to see the Rangers beat the Isles tonight. So far most of the play has been in the Rangers zone though.

    Maybe they brought in Cee Lo because they knew the ice would be like a bball court...LOL. Puck bouncing all over. Hard to pass. Just shoot every chance you get.

    And to think Pierre said the ice was better than on Sunday. This is horrible. But its even for both teams

    Yeah, that's it Al. The ice is awful. Let's be honest that period was awful. There is no flow because the players can't move the puck without it bouncing all over. But both teams have to deal with it, so it is what it is.

    This game will be won/lost on a bad bounce that leads to a goal.

    :( you would have thought that with the colder weather and 3 days of additional work the surface woukd have improved not worsen.oh well. Second period magic. Need a pp since the Icelanders have two already

    It's amazing the Isles lose and then all they have to see is the Ranger jersey,
    they become whirlwinds on ice. Just crazy. Can the Rangers please clear
    their zone...they look slow and flat...let's blame the ice( Brodeurism )LOL

    That's a JOKE call on Nash. Isles dominating this period.

    3 PP's to 0 for the Isles. Refs not liking us tonight that's for sure.

    Refs never like us. Part of the ranger mystique

    I don't buy that mrm. Tonight is bad though.

    It is amazing, but the Isles seem to out play the Rangers every time they play. They have dominated this game pretty much, and they dominated the game last week as well. I just don't understand it.

    Good for them.

    Good bounce back. Maybe that will wake them up. Angers me that we cannot play against the Isles right now.

    It's been the same with the Devils...............Isles want to "... knock out
    Big Boy on the block." Ever since they came into the league and the area,
    it has always been that way.

    Chuck, refs only liked us when messier played as none of them could deal with that messier "stare". LOL. Actually have seen a bunch of games like this this year where we dominate early, get nothing and the other team comes back to win the game. This game has the makings of the opposite. Expect to get a power play or 2 in the third and the rangers score a couple of goals to win 3 -1.

    Refs clearly miss another one with that late hit on Nash.

    I really would like to see the Rangers match the Islanders intensity. For some strange reason, the Islanders always seem to play like it's do or die, and the Rangers always play like they've got plenty of time.

    It would be nice if Stepan could actually contribute something.
