GDT: #14 - 02/17/2013 | Washington Capitals @ New York Rangers | 6:00 PM - NBC SPORTS

[nevesis]

20 shots on goal...2 or maybe 3 that were actual quality shots.

 

[Kershaw]

Good first period, keep it up and they're bound to score a couple soon. Very proud of this effort.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

It;s typical of us to kick ass and still lose

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

There PP looks infinitely better, keep doing what they're doing and they will get those PP goals

Agreed, power play looks good.

 

[ImIdaho]

There is no one on this team that has a cannon of a shot.

I think there are a few players who can rip it, just that it gives Torts a frowny face.

 

[nevesis]

“@stevezipay: "Banged-up" Nash played 8:37. Just sayin'”

 

[*Bob Richards*]

There is no one on this team that has a cannon of a shot.

Del Zotto's is pretty close as in his shot resembles a hand grenade. Violent, unpredictable and without direction.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Caps take a penalty.

Refs blow whistle when Rangers are breaking in...

This.

And who is that in your avatar box? Don't say Haley Williams ...

 

[Fitzy]

Is there any particular reason Holtby has to play like a robot against us?

 

[IronBloodedLion]

Words out in the NHL.

Rangers dominating you during the game? Just take a penalty on them.

 

[IBleedNYRBlue]

Absolutely dominating.

Will pot one soon.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Imagine Jagr and Nash playing together? mmmm mmmm mmmm

Imagine Nash and Gáborík playing together?

 

[Cmox]

black flag in the soccer commercial.

This will allow teams to cheapshot on the Rangers.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

black flag in the soccer commercial.

Noticed that too. Good stuff.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Absolutely dominating.

Will pot one soon.

What sort of terrible prediction is that

 

[Callagraves]

at this rate, Holtby will have to make 60 saves

 

[TriFF51]

We're not scoring on Holtby tonight.

sadly, this

 

[BB58]

at this rate, Holtby will have to make 60 saves

Scott Gomez-type 60 shots

 

[cd211]

PP misses that one big shot.. Jagr made the PP his cup of tea, always took that one timmer on the top of the circle.. rangers need to do that **** again!!!

but looks better...

 

[GFiP*]

People are giving Holtby too much credit.. the Rangers aren't getting good shots off.

 

[ceej730]

Yet again a mediocre goalie looking outstanding against the Rangers.

And 20 shots already???

 

[LeetchisGod]

There is no one on this team that has a cannon of a shot.

Kreider has one of the best wrist shots on the team if not the best but they don't like playing him.

 

[Drewbackatu*]

It's not that he's playing out of his mind, our chances aren't quality.

Exactly. Our spacing on the pp is horrendous, we pass when we should shoot and shoot when we should pass. On top of that, the fans who post here overrate our talent something fierce. I'll admit that it may be time for a change in philosophy behind the bench but, that being said, there just isn't enough size and talent on this team as presently constructed!

 

[stenis22]

torts was keeping that line together for the powerplay, they look good out there together 5 on 5. Only thing is i'd use 2 d on the point if you go that way, but Richards is doing okay today.

I get that, chemistry and everything but what's Hagelin supposed to do, he just ends up in front of the net and gets pushed around.. Rather have a big body in there and maybe Hagelin on the halfboards
