    They just played a crap game which happens. Might be good to get themselves on the road where they're very strong.

    Meaningless goal at the end.

    Pretty easy to figure this one out.

    1. Special teams. We get 1 PP on 7 chances. They go 2-2 on their first two chances.
    2. Outside of the first 8 or so minutes of the 3rd, the Pens wanted this game MUCH more than we did. Pretty easy to see that.

    And for anyone crying about the refs even one drop give me an f'ing break. We have gotten MANY good calls in 2 games. We have a HUGE PP lead. So please stop the nonsense.

    Onto game 3. I expect we'll play a MUCH better and stronger game, with a lot more passion.

    Atleast Nash scored. Of course it's a meaningless goal

    Yea, but he was only falling because Fleury tripped him. If he's not tripped than he doesn't need to swing his stick out. Regardless, I'm not complaining about the officials. We had our chances but we blew them.

    Smarter? Scoring on your 75 PP chances has nothing to do with being smarter. Has everything to do with execution.

    Lundqvist has to be better game, he was out of position in the 1st and 4th goal

    It's over so all the analysis in the world isn't going to change the outcome. We shall see how they respond in game three.

    And if they do, the Rangers better stay in there lanes and give the Pens nothing to shoot at ...

    Hayes with his worst game as a Ranger, including preseason, and AV with his worst coaching decision of all time having Stepan take that face off. Time to drink

    Need to stop being cute and pretty and be gritty and SHOOT puck after puck after puck on the PP.

    Hopefully Klein can play next game... Defense is shaky

    They lost because of stupidity ... and that's all.

    I 100% expect the Rangers will do what they do. Play with no life one game, and come back with a big effort the next game. So I'd expect a big game 3, but it does frustrate the hell out of me that this team still cannot play with a series lead and step on the throat of a team. Really pisses me off. I was hoping by now they would have understood how to handle that, but I guess not.

    Lundqvist has to be better next game. He played like Pavelic this game
