24 shots vs. 38

How many odd man rushes did we have compared to them? We can't even get 1 SOG with the PP, yet somehow we weren't that bad on offense.

The type of scoring chances for the Rangers are not that good...which makes it so much more of AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH when Nash hits the post..How many times did Lundy save us in this game...And how many times did Holtby have to save the Caps...I still dont think the series is over if..and only if we can generate some good scoring chances...
 
Take out OT (where we were brutal), and the game is a lot closer. The play in OT just killed us.

we had like no possession in regulation. this was like 95% henrik getting us to overtime against a horrible defensive team. 2-3 posts or maybe we do it, but this was not just OT
 
He didn't answer any questions besides how he thought Dorsett and Boyle played.

Reporter: "Your team has scored only 1 goal in 2 games...how are you going to adjust your offense?"

Torts: "Create more offense."
Thats torts for you. 3 word answer unless he is talking about his favorites like boyle who didnt even do much anyway today

They still get the edge in shots and oddman rushes. And something I ****ing hate as well is that this team isn't hitting like they should be.

Where the **** is Callahan?
 
****. the whole game this ***** behind would not shut up, it's like she had a **** up her *****. kept screaming, arguing.. i have on idea what. wanting random calls that don't exist. yelling at the players to **** themselves in the their *****. i do not comprehend.

You should have bought her some huge pile of food to eat, keep her mouth full. Sounds like it would have been money well spent. Dumb is one thing, but dumb and loud is really awful.
 
Washington was 27th in PK this year. Good job Rangers! Good job.

And the Caps defense is not that good...but that dump and chase isnt working well..the Caps seem to always break out...If were gonna play dump and chase we gotta get to that puck..not always ..because you arent always going to get to it...but we defintely need to start winning those battles more...We cant just play all defense and wait to lose....LGR!!!!!!!!!
 
Meh, a loss like this shows who the real fans are, anyway. Team needs to just get up and shake this crappy loss off. Sucks that they lost, but hopefully they can put it behind them. This team can be seriously emotional sometimes. Hopefully the home crowd can get behind them and help out.

You LITERALLY just quoted a post saying don't attack fans and you attack fans by implying they aren't real fans? You have been posting here for ages you should show an ability to talk to people and understand frustration
 
Didn't say it didn't did I?
But they do have 4 goals to our 1 in 2 games, so I'd say they don't have to worry right now

You said the Rangers offense sucked because they scored 0 goals. Now the Caps offense didn't suck despite also scoring 0 goals through 60. The point is number of goals doesn't equate to how good an offense played. There are plenty of better arguments for why the Rangers offense didn't capitalize, throwing around things like "0 goals of course they suck" is just piling on the this team sucks train without any hint of logic.

again, what are you expecting? He's not going to break out the whiteboard and draw up plays for them. No useful info comes from post match press conferences. If you want to see how the Rangers will respond, watch game 3
 
So close. I feel no different about the Rangers chances of winning the the next two games than I did about them winning this one.
Nothing definitive about this loss today in terms of chances. Down 2-0 is the obvious handicap, but so what?
 
Yet you continue to miss the point.

Incorrect I missed nothing and you have failed miserably to explain b/c you know it. You also incorrectly excused this teams offense and failed to understand why people are sick of this teams failure to score. You also incorrectly are implying we should treat posts as G and forgive the team I am waiting for good hockey analysis or at least good discussion and it's a lot of passive aggressive taunts and incorrect statements.

First of all i dont give a **** if he says anything. I simply saying what torts does. i dont give a crap
 
Well I'm over that game now. Not good that the only offensive zone pressure they generated was below the goal line. Can't keep it up the next two games

Rangers have 1 goal in 2 games. 1. The offense isn't good.
 
Changes?

If rangers are out there will be serious changes. I think Richards will be bought out? What do you guys say?
