What the Heck is Quino?

 

[The Gloaming]

This proves you aren't watching the same game, or you don't bother watching the slow motion replays to see what actually happened.

Rewind your DVR my friend, and you will see a puck shot, hit off a skate, and then deflected off the skate deflection by Dubinsky into the net.

Double deflection, yet thats a garbage goal by Lundqvist?

I have been playing and teaching goal for 15 years, and am actually offended someone who plays goal could have such a ridiculous opinion.

I don't know why you guys still bother with these "experts."

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I thought it beat him high blocker side.

I mean, maybe he went down too fast but I don't think it was a soft goal. He's given up way worse goals and was completely absolved. Still in prior years he probably makes that save. I

 

[Wolfy*]

I agreed Kreider really slowed up and wasnt trying to hurt Tyutin. Kreider is so strong that even a small tap and you go flying. i really hope he doenst get suspended because that wasnt even close to game misconducts that i ahve seen

Well I disagree, he had a lot of speed there, and he knew the direction would send Tyutin into the boards. I removed my homer glasses and could see it was dangerous play.

Anyway, a game misconduct usually means an automatic suspension until it has been reviewed, he probably wont play on Wednesday.

 

[Machinehead]

I guess the standard for Callahan is incredibly low right now then. What exactly has he done?

Well for starters he'd have 2 points if anybody on this team could shoot.

 

[mrhockey193195]

Deflection in front of the net, breakaway, odd man rush. When Hank is going good, he stops one or two of those, and he stops them all when he's going great, but these aren't soft goals.

Good, level-headed post. Columbus has been getting great chances all game, but Hank is clearly still not "Hank". Bobrovsky has made some spectacular saves at the other end - as did Hank in the first period - but Columbus is definitely getting the better goaltending right now.

 

[trilobyte]

This team is scatter-brained. Can't focus long enough to not **** up.
Bouncing around .500 for the forseeable future.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

BTW, I strangely still have a little bit of hope, which is more than almost ever in this situation.

 

[The Gloaming]

These first time internet user commercials are getting out of hand.

I still haven't seen this mystery commercial.

 

[Overcast]

This team is so damn fragile.

None of those goals were soft. But that being said, 9 million dollar goalies need to make some of those saves.

This. Hank was hung out to dry for 7 years before signing that contract this season (and the "looming contract talks" can no longer explain what's going on) and bailed the team out 9 games out of 10, 9.9 chances out of 10. This year is just..who knows. For whatever shortcomings the rest of the team has, he has to, once again, be the one who props them all up. And that just hasn't happened most nights.

 

[Pizza]

I'm kind of excited to see what a rebuild would do for us. We have some pretty good pieces as is.

Yeah, I guess that's where are.

Seems a long time ago that people were saying this was supposed to be a pretty good team.

Rangers fans better get used to watching former Rangers come in and bend them over. Part of me actually loves it for all the calls for trades from so many of our clueless fan base.

 

[Callagraves]

A break away, an uncontested deflection, and a wicked wrist shot top corner.

Guys. These were nice goals.

Hank needs to make a save, but these weren't some scrub chances, or soft.

 

[North Star]

everyone looks weak so for..

cally gets bullies and pushed around..

Our D is on vacation....

Henke is...well...piss poor....

ALL this on my 40th birthday too..

Happy birthday anyway!

Oh, and from me you get a win for Norway over Canada in the Olympics. 3 points for Zucc.

 

[Doctyl]

I know snowblind isn't a hater but he's a strong Hank critic. He's not giving Hank ****. Give it up you Hank haters/Talbot lovers

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

I'm seriously seriously considering becoming a Blackhawk fan...but my heart won't allow it.... ****you rangers

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

These first time internet user commercials are getting out of hand.

Yeah them and Michael ****ing Bolton

Shoulder to shoulder. Debatable 2 minute minor, certainly not a major and a game. And a game misconduct means no such thing.

For all this **** games he's had this year, this would be the last one I call him out on.

It would be nice if the other team was just sliding into his pads like we're doing with Bobrovsky, but the other team has professionals on it.

Don't want to have a who's got a bigger hammer contest with you, but you don't know WTF you are talking about.

Hank was on his goal line. Any goalie playing worth his salt can see the player standing in front and move out toward him to nullify a tip, not to mention, cutting the angle on a shot from the point.

 

[JCrusher*]

"A goalie is only as good as the team in front of him" - Mike Richter

Which year did Henrik win the Vezina? It couldn't have been the same year that the Rangers had their best season since 1994 could it have been?

So basically in your mind Hank is flawless and makes no mistakes? I mean im as big of Hank fan as anybody and i have defended him a lot but im not afraid to be critical of him when he doesnt play well

If the rangers score those goals, we would be praising their deflection and sniping skills.

A match penalty is a suspension pending review, not a game misconduct.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

I still haven't seen this mystery commercial.

No exaggeration. They'll play one of them 3 or 4 times consecutively, break and then play the next one three more times. Its absolutely ridiculous.

Might seriously challenge "Leaving the gate open".

Be honest. On this team, who's had a good year?

Talbot, Kreider, Zucc, McDonagh.
Stralman's on the short list.
