Post-Game Talk: ECSF #1 - 5/16/13 | New York Rangers @ Boston Bruins - Damnit!

[BroadwayBlues]

I said prior to the playoffs that this team needs to win in regulation. 0-3 and counting....

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

Move Callahan to the 4th line with Richards and put Kreider with Stepan and Hagelin. Callahan has been disastrous outside of game 7.

Worth a shot imo...

 

[Ghost of jas]

There is no reason for either the Eminger of Moore penalties. The Krug goal is one that Henke normally stops. Callahan seems to have lost all ability to play smart hockey. On to Game 2.

 

[Florida Ranger]

Both of those goals were on him. If you want to give him the Chara one, fine. But, the second one definitely was stoppable. I'm one of the last people to bash Hank. Also I'm not saying we lost because of him. I'm saying that those goals were stoppable.

I don't disagree

 

[ImIdaho]

If both teams played neck-and-neck, I'd assume we lost 3-2 late in OT.

Again, only reason for that was because Hank still played.

 

[Net Front Presence]

Eminger and Callahan were horrible.

Lundqvist needs to be better.

 

[KingP]

be fine


played like **** and had a chance to win in ot

 

[Hunter Gathers]

You'd think we just got blown out 10-0 reading this garbage. Gives me a freaking migraine even trying to read though this drivel.

It's even worse reading through the GDT trying to figure out WTF is going on since I can't see the game. Granted, it at least shows me who I can trust to give an honest breakdown of what is going on.

 

[BB58]

Worth a shot imo...

Here comes cally's cheerleaders......

 

[The Gloaming]

You can't really blame Cally for this. He is playing with Step. Cally doesn't really play Steps game. So he is trying to fit in on that line.

So maybe our idiot coach should realize this?

Besides, I remember when Cally and Stepan had excellent chemistry this year. So it's not like he hasn't done it before.

 

[Hi ImHFNYR]

.938 save percentage. Not sure what you want from a goalie.

Rangers again brutally outplayed at ES. Stone age hockey and shooting gallery for Boston.

Make 1 of those two saves and he faces 16 or so less shots. He SHOULD have made one of those. Still nobody should let the F off the hook for embarrassing themselves in the 3rd and OT

 

[ThisYearsModel]

Ok was is just me or was brass' pass completely on target and Nash didnt even try and get it/missed it

No, it was you. Chara stuck his 9 foot long stick out and tipped it away or McD was in big time.

 

[NYR510]

Question for all of you: What was the longest Nash went without a goal this season? Cause he's at 8 and I figure that's gotta be pushing it

 

[Machinehead]

I didn't think we were outplayed at all in regulation. Sounds like a bunch of Caps fans in here.

And yeah we sucked in overtime but that's like the ****ing sun coming up.

 

[Grifter3511]

If both teams played neck and neck, there wouldn't be much fuss about it. However, our PP pales in comparison to theirs, they created more offensive pressure than we did, and they know how to attempt shots unlike us.

Their pp was way better than ours, but going into OT the shots were pretty much even. Not sure whatyyou're looking for....other than a brand new PP of. Ourse

 

[bouds]

Thought Dorsett had his best game in game 7 but he was awful tonight.

Del Zotto is getting blown off the puck.

Had a shot at winning this game. Nash, Brass, Zucc didn't do anything, they got locked up.

 

[BroadwayHockey]

I did, it was tipped slightly but it still went into the general area it was supposed to. It wasn't going to tape to tape, but McD over skated.

I don't think it was even intended for Nash.

Brassard looks up before he makes the pass, so it was cleary intended for Nash in my opinion..then it got tipped from Chara it seems... bad break

 

[JCrusher*]

Worth a shot imo...

i liked the last PP lineup we had before the penalty. i would like to see those guys again next game

 

[darko]

.938 save percentage. Not sure what you want from a goalie.

Shutouts brah.

 

[Dalagaze]

Wow! I have never understood how bad this board gets after losses until tonight. Don't get me wrong, I have contributed my fair share of negativity to this board. But people are literally complaining about everything about this team.

Rangers didn't play that bad. They can beat this team.

That's the Ranger board for ya.

 

[NHRangerfan]

Seriously. When is Callahan going to realize that his level of play right now is unacceptable?

The real question is when will Torts realize it

 

[ImIdaho]

Make 1 of those two saves and he faces 16 or so less shots. He SHOULD have made one of those. Still nobody should let the F off the hook for embarrassing themselves in the 3rd and OT

What did you see in the 3rd that makes you assume we walk away with the W if Lundy didn't let in that goal?

 

[Championship*]

So the PP is now 3 for 30 at the most important time of the year.

How does that NOT get someone fired?
How does that NOT prompt them to do something different?

I was wrong last series, they beat history. But Same Old Rangers aren't doing it twice unless BOTH their special teams play better.

 

[BB58]

Staal needs to get here immediately.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Again, only reason for that was because Hank still played.

But the shots were 32-30 in the game. According to the radio, the game seemed fairly close yet Hank was poor on two goals.

So I don't see how you can really claim that. The Bruins got 1/3 of their shots in OT. So you may as well completely get rid of OT when we are talking about this since the game should've been over in regulation.
