I really don't know where these guys' heads are. At least show you care, dammit (that wasn't directed at Lundqvist). The playoff race is tight. Assemble your feces.
 
I ****ing hate this team a lot of the time this season. Just show up goddammit. It's disgraceful. The standings are tight, the playoffs are a tenuous proposition and a team that should be very beatable NEEDS to be beaten but the Rangers, of course, can't be bothered to even try. I wouldn't mind losing a hard fought game, even if we really needed the points, but boy do I ever mind losing a game that we simply didn't show up in when we need the points. I've posted a lot less as the seasons gone on because I just really have a hard time getting excited about this year's edition of the Rangers. I find them hard to root for. They're not a likable squad, win some exceptions. And regarding the inability to show up, I applaud the way AV has transformed our attack and transition game and altered the way we play, but I despise his apparent inability to adapt to anything in game or do a lick of motivating or holding his players accountable. This game really has my blood boiling.
 
Staal has had a bad game. But for the better part of 2-3 weeks, he has been our best defense man in my opinion. Bad games happen. Everyone is flipping out at Staal the same way they do when Nash/Henrik have a bad game. It happens.

Nice edit... A lot of people think Staal is better than Girardi. One game doesn't change that. G's had plenty of crappy games himself.

Well, I thought about both comments. Liked my first one because someone here the other day was telling me how much better Staal was, but then I thought about the potential trade to Carolina and liked that comment better. Really no problem that I edited my comment.
 
Kreider punching Semin was the best part of the game.. anyone have a gif of it??
 
Staal has been a better dman than Girardi for about 2 months straight. Not even remotely close either. 2 bad games and G>>>>>>>Staal LOL. Girardi had a pathetically bad stretch earlier this year too. Like 15 games straight. Staal always was and always will be better. Girardi however is much, much more durable and plays the right which is nice

You know how it is in sports, Nils. "What have you done for me lately?"

He's an easy target in this game. It hasn't helped that everyone else has looked like ****, too.

Right, but two months is lately. Staal has been good for a while now, one bad game, trashed.

Lundqvist was elite for two straight months, two bad games, trashed.

You cannot take our fan base seriously.

Where has St. Louis been? I mean all around the Rangers had no chances but wow..

Is anyone surprised? He's playing with a washed up Richards who's slow as **** and a speedy grinder in Hagelin? Center is a major issue with this team. Too small, too slow. And if you include Brassard too inconsistent

Okay. Staal is still better than Girardi.
