Once or twice? You'd have a point. If there's a deflection goal, 9 times out of 10, Girardi is responsible.

I'd give you this if he was deflecting them in with his stick or skate trying to stop the shot or redirect it, he's not it's going off his body. Not only that but it's usually hitting him after it's been deflected once.
 
These announcers are quite biased. The excitement in their voices for everything Bruins is sad on a national broadcast.

Hope the Rangers can take that down a couple of notches

boston sports are sports broadcasters and media's lovers. nothing surprising.
 
Not getting pucks deep. Not making plays. Losing puck battles. Weak on clearing attempts. Not hitting. Not going to the net. Not covering guys in the slot. Lazy on back checks. Not taking hits to clear the puck and start a rush. Absolutely no forecheck.

Call a friggin time out or something.
 
So the solution is??? Keeping Girardi 5+ feet away from the net to avoid bad bounces? C'mon now.

It seems as though he's always clueless as to where the puck is until it's off of him and into the net, and that's my issue.

That play isn't the main reason why Girardi has pissed me off today, though, he's just had a poor game all-around.
 
Really? A guy who blocks shots and plays in front of the net is going to have pucks go off him? What a bum. :shakehead



Oh good. Now we're making up stats.

Don't bother. There's more blaming of Girardi for it going off of him in the second piece of a double deflection than there was for Staal completely leaving a man open that led to a goal. People just want to scapegoat.
