Kind of the opposite of Drury who only played well in big games.
It is getting frustrating with him. That's for sure.
I think we could come up with more points in two games vs car and njd than Ottawa can against caps flyers boston. No?
like someone said in the GDT, hes trying to do wayyy too much out there. hes trying to be rick nash out there half the time. his whole career has been playing a simple game and he just hasn't done much of that this season.
Does it matter if they make the playoffs? Even if they do, it won't be as anything but the 8th seed and Pittsburgh would mop the floor with them.
I do. I don't see how it can be said that he had no chance of stopping it. Hank makes deflection stops every game. All of a sudden he can't make this one? I don't buy it. He was asleep all game. He let in this goal and the second goal because he had no action and played like it.
That happens to good goalies all the time. The lack of shots is probably one reason he played so crappy (and one of the reasons I think Biron would have won the game for us tonight).
Perhaps we can blame the Rangers for not letting more shots on Hank, though. That will be the next step for some on this board.
Right. I complain about Hank constantly.
I'm one of the few people that will call him out when he lets bad goals. Our discussions have devolved into ONLY praising him. Wasn't like that a couple of years ago when we had actual, non-biased discussions on the guy and could actually criticize him when it was due. Take a wild guess why I and a number of other long time posters no longer post in the GDTs. It's not because it's good discussion.
But continue to think that the problems are all with the Rangers every loss. We badly outplayed the Panthers and lost. There was no excuse for that loss. But of course it's all on the Rangers. This team can do no right.
I may have paraphrasedMy name is Dan Girardi, I'm not gonna pass it to the other defender while I'm being pressured, I'm just gonna take my patented weak ass wrist shot and hope the goalie's in the locker room
You're wrong, they weren't bad goal. Go back and look at them. You're look at the shots on goal for each team and blaming Henrik because he faced less. You didn't even watch the goals. You are so clueless. You are right though, they outplayed them and lost. Not because of Henrik, because they blew their chances, and Markstrom played a good game. Henrik has bad games, and Henrik lets in bad goals, but those were not bad goals.
Please continue to not post in the GDT, with opinions like that you aren't adding anything anyway. No one cares how long you've been posting, as if that's some kind of measurement for making good discussion.

its not about just making the playoffs, we gotta avoid the 8 seed, which is why this was such a killer loss. pens will beat us in 4 or 5.
Hey, I've said for years that I view Callahan as a 3rd line player on a good team. :shrug:

Check out Callahan's canned/cliche post game!
I agree with you Jon. You have every right to criticize Lundqvist tonight. Both goals were completely stoppable.
If you put money against your own team.. well that just kind of makes you an *******
