[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]

We’re trying to make plays when they’re not there. We’re not making plays when they are there. We’re fighting it all over the ice.
When you’re doing that, you have to rely on your defensive game and guys supporting each other if there’s a mistake. And there was just none of that going on.
We made a mistake, and we were naked. They were just getting chance after chance. Everyone has to reassert themselves to that part of the game.
- Marc Staal

It seemed like guys weren’t willing to compete hard, and that’s a very hard thing to say, but you have to admit it sometimes.
Our group simply gave away two points. It’s very uncharacteristic. The way Hank was playing, that’s very disappointing, we left him out to dry.
- Ryan McDonagh

It was 4-1, and Henrik was all by himself. It had been enough.
- Alain Vigneault

NYRFAN218 · Mar 20, 2016

Try not to give up 52 shots on goal

silverfish · Mar 20, 2016

A convincing win would go a long way to quelling some stress around here.

But really? I'd be satisfied with a 60 minute effort that looks like someone on this team besides Lundqvist gives a ****, win or lose.

*Bob Richards* · Mar 20, 2016

Limiting them to 40 shots would be an improvement.....somehow....

Ori · Mar 20, 2016

We need to win this game - Pengs are just 2 pts behind us.
Let`s do it.
LGR!

offdacrossbar · Mar 20, 2016

fla is a good team.

if we come out with the same kind of effort, it will be a similar outcome.

this team seems unable to play team defense sometimes which i find odd since were mostly a veteran group whos played together for years.

scoring a few goals would help take osme pressure off the d and hank as well. too many 1-1 games going into the 3rd. goal scoring fixes/hides alot of warts.

Giacomin · Mar 20, 2016

This should be a good test for the Rangers

KingP · Mar 20, 2016

Lets see how they come out after last game

Revel · Mar 20, 2016

Moore has a whopping 4 points in his last 31 games. Maybe we should plug Lindberg into the 4th line Center spot (his natural position) and see how it goes. Hate seeing him sit every night, but know Glass will continue to play (he's been decent).

Infinitum Vitae* · Mar 20, 2016

I don't know what it is but i just don't care that much this season. We might not even make the POs. Every game from here on out is a must win.

SnowblindNYR · Mar 20, 2016

This better be a good effort. Last game's effort was completely unacceptable.

Blueshirt Special · Mar 20, 2016

Cue the Jagrnaut

Penguins (88 pts) jump Rangers (88 pts) into 2nd place in Met Division via tiebreaker after 6-2 win over Capitals. #NYR now in 3rd

Yeah, Pens win the H2H tiebreaker, due to us having the same GP/points/ROW.

nevesis · Mar 20, 2016

Let's see if Sather's pep talk to them in the locker room yesterday actually helps change things.

Not holding my breath.

Ironically the Panthers broke the Corsi gauge against us last year.

Draft Guru · Mar 20, 2016

Quick turn around for a home game after a west coast trip.

I'll be pleasantly surprised if we get a point out of this one. Expecting us to come out slow. Hopefully can weather the storm in the first.

They listen to him more than Hank.

Exactly this.

The Gloaming · Mar 20, 2016

Let's see if we can keep them to under 100 Corsi events tomorrow. Given that wonderful game last year and the "hockey game" we saw in San Jose, I'm not exactly brimming with confidence.

Ail · Mar 21, 2016

Why couldn't they just beat LA in 2014? :cry:

ReggieDunlop68 · Mar 21, 2016

I'm Predicting that Nash scores an easy one on Luongo after he dumps the puck for a line change after 20 seconds, Luongo makes an easy save on a Rick Nash penalty shot that Nash attempts butt first from center ice, or both of them spontaneously combust on their respective benches. This will align the stars for key players that choked during AV finals runs.

Anyway, it's going to be nice to see Jagr. Of course he will be booed for bringing some respect to the Rangers, but I understand the anger from the casual suits who can't get over Sather not wanting him anymore after "Christmas in July", the acquisition of Drury and Gomez.

The Panthers will also be in fear when the Potvin Sucks chant is whistled poorly.

What is going on with the Blueshirts?

I'm predicting another no show from Nash.

In fact, I'll go on record like the good old times. I'll eat my pubes if Nash scores.

Idlerlee · Mar 21, 2016

Booing Jagr? He should be celebrated in every NHL arena he visits, the guys is a hockey legend, one of the greatest of all time.

Ori · Mar 21, 2016

yeah, I`ve much respect for Jagr - he is one of the major reason Flordia is among the playoffs teams.
