Post-Game Talk: Devils at Rangers 12/7/13

[bmoak]

So much for the homegrown drafted/developed core: Lundqvist, Callahan, Stepan, Staal, Girardi, Hagelin, Del Zotto. The Rangers go no nowhere with them.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

0-3 against the devils. Why am i not surprised? That team owns us. Disgraceful.

0-2-1

 

[Machinehead]

for the love of god stop with this nonsense. fans dont know what kind of leader a player is. hes playing like ****, but that doesnt make him a bad leader.

Playing like absolute **** in big games does in fact make you a bad leader.

 

[Black Aces]

Good point. One of the most overrated players in recent history by this organization. He could bring back some nice pieces.

dubinsky who everyone loves is way more overrated

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Callahan, you are a ****ing tragedy.

I don't understand what's a kick and what isn't. Honestly. I've never been more confused.

Losing that game is absolutely tragic. Up 2-0. Up 2-1 going into the third. Close a game out, you ****s.

Thank you for the point Kreider.

God damn, dude.

Boyle -2, his line was atrocious all night.

Hope Staal is okay, but he went off the ice pissed like he knew he was messed up.

Ugh.

Agreed with all of this. Although I'd substitute "Hank" for "dude."

Boyle's entire line was just plain bad. Horrible to watch, really.

 

[Carlos Ranger]

New York Rangers Hockey!

 

[GbgRanger]

They have a problem with conditioning or are they just not caring anymore? To much partying? What´s going on. Half the team are floating around.

 

[NikC]

did i hear correctly? Staal was injured??? is it bad? what happened??!!

 

[Holocene]

Well that was ugly. I'll take the point and run though. That kicked in goal really changed the complexion of the game. Sucks.

 

[OnlyTruth]

WOW! Hank can't stop a freaking beach ball.

He is thinking about what he can do now with all these new money.

 

[Kakko]

At the end of the season, NYR will be in the playoffs, and NJD will not be. So this is temporary.

You. You I like.

And .500?

***** we're one whole point above that

 

[AlternateSideParking]

The Rangers dont tie the game without Callahan taking a rifle shot to the chest and harassing Brodeur.

He's been what he's always been -- a lunchpail, black and blue grinder who makes his money in the trenches.

It's OK to not want him to be Captain, but to get rid of a guy who is perfect for a 2nd or 3rd line at this point doesnt make any sense.

 

[Josh3217]

Don't worry it's just preseason

 

[ecemleafs]

people value picks more than established players

we arent gonna get better with those 2 taking up 10m+ of our cap long term.

 

[gmerger37]

The core of this team is never gonna win us a cup. Staal girardi cally etc need to go.

 

[trilobyte]

Got a point. They sure pissed this game away

I think the big problem is his potential salary this offseason. I wouldn't pay him over 5M yet I think he gets over 5M.

 

[Black Aces]

and what do we do with two drafted guys who may never make the NHL

 

[The Gloaming]

We lost to a team on Medicare.

Useless Captain let us down.

**** call on the Mr. Irrelevant goal.

Can't wait to go to tomorrow's game and watch this team get their ass handed to them by Ovechkin.

 

[Fataldogg]

And part of this loss is on Lundqvist. Not all of it. But part of it. And I'm a Lundqvist HOMER.

Moore got beat badly by Ryder, where was Lundqvist to bail him out? Didn't come up with a big save. In fact, it's a shot that was very stoppable.

Callahan makes a dumb play in OT, and Lundqvist doesn't bail him out by stopping a routine point shot.

He didn't stop the shots he needed to.

Lundqvist has been inconsistent this season. I don't understand how he can stand on his head in Buffalo, just a few days ago, and than put in this performance.

 

[Fitzy]

Based on what?

Based on the quality of the hockey club. If you don't believe me, wait it out.

 

[ImIdaho]

Cally's penalty was ****ing brutal, but in his defense, that was an egregious turnover in our zone from whoever, and he was involved with all 3 of the Rangers goals tonight.

Nobody's going to remember that though.

It came because he was going for the puck instead of trying to hit the SOB. When you see slowass Jagr controlling the puck and skating the way he did tonight, it's really no surprise that we got the L.

 

[Lone Ranger]

Callahan is awful.
Boyle is even worse.

 

[AKrangerfan]

No it was kicked in but not distinct kicking according to TO. That doesn't happen its a different game

That puck was kicked in. Miller goal they called off was less of a kick then this one. No consistency.

Trade Callahan for Dubinsky. At least he comes to play every game.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

I can't believe we let Cam ****ing Janssen score. That's the true loss in all of this.
