am i only only one who didnt think zucc should have shot that? there were like 5 players that were probably in the way of that shot if he took it

As opposed to passing it to the guy that had a man on him? Take your chances and shoot in that case.

 

[Kakko]

I hate torts, but he's still a better Coach than the people here in the arena.

 

[3rd Guy High]

Playing very well... If we had a decent offensive coach this would be 3-0 already... They need to change the shooting lanes they do such a ****** job of that.

 

[NHRangerfan]

I blame the crowd.

I blame the popcorn guy in the lower bowl.

 

[trilobyte]

I thought Zuccs had as good a path to the net as any opportunity tonight. Plus, he passed it to a guy who was not going to be open for long.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

The same bad coach who won 50 games last yr?

The Rangers have no resemblance of creativity or puck possession. That to me is personnel problem. They do not have the skills to stickhandle in the zone getting unmolested..

Never said he was a bad coach. I said they were badly coached. Also the context was the PP, which is run by Sully.

 

[beastly115]

They're controlling the play......just have to bury their chances !!

Same **** different day. Caps are due for a soft goal soon.

 

[BB58]

Sooner or later someones gonna score a garbage goal. YOu just have this feeling.

 

[rholt168]

I hate torts, but he's still a better Coach than the people here in the arena.

That's because you couldn't hear Torts yelling "pass" and "play it into the boards" from the bench.

 

[5 4 Fighting]

MTV should come out with a new show: "Biggest Loser- NYR edition" Put Nash, Callahan, and Richards with Del Zotto and let fans make fun of them while they work out.

 

[truebluegoalie]

Could these sick holds be any more obvious?

 

[beastly115]

Do they really think they're going to score on a weak wrister from just inside the blueline?

 

[BB58]

DUmping the puck????? really?

 

[rholt168]

Hockey IQ!

 

[MysticLeviathan]

He's right. Not many here like to admit it, or they are just actually ignorant. The players are the ones out on the ice, and are the ones making the plays, or lack thereof.

This team isn't very talented. Very few guys have good hands, not many great skaters. No killer instinct or ability to bury shots.

Without Lundqvist, we don't even see the playoffs the past few years. Its a mediocre team, and will continue to be for a long time until we bring in TALENT that isn't over the hill.

It's amazing how irrational New York fans can be. You can have an all-century team, and you'll say they're terrible players after having a few bad games.

You don't think Nash is talented? You don't think Callahan has good hands? You don't think Brassard has the smarts and skill? You don't think Stepan has the vision and passing ability? You don't think Del Zotto has a good shot? Or Hagelin has good speed? Or Zucc with his offensive prowess? We have a good team, we're just being utilized poorly on the power play.

Sometimes it can be so frustrating discussing sports with New Yorkers. It's amazing how irrational some of them can be.

 

[5 4 Fighting]

Mentally unprepared, unfocused during an elimination game. They're waiting to get scored on so they can start playing better.

 

[Glennsoe]

Hags and Kreider seems slower than usual so far...

Steps has been invisible so far...Nash...well....he's slowly taking his time...

 

[*Bob Richards*]

I'll be honest. I think Holtby is having himself a good game.

 

[rholt168]

Boyle is the only one doing anything.

 

[NYSportsfan87]

jesus christ.

 

[DoTheBlue]

OH my god

 

[RiceCooker]

How did we miss the net like 3 times there lol !!

 

[Glennsoe]

snakebiten offence..

 

[raist]

You have to be kidding me...

 

[BB58]

This team doesnt practice shooting.
