[Rongomania]

Sam was as bad as the team tonight. Tough one to watch.

 

[RickChartraw]

turn the lights out when you go, thx

 

[EdJovanovski]

Buch with 2 HORRIFIC plays

He also created our 2 goals

Sam is terrible at his job.

tbf, are they at the rink?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

He also created our 2 goals

why does NHL app not have him as the 2nd assist on the ROoney goal?

Meanwhile on the Pens feed, Bob Errey makes Sam sound like a man in the prime of his life.

I didnt say he sucked this game, I simply stated he made 2 bad plays in one sequence

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Not gonna lie. This was a REALLY hard game to watch. I’m going to go ahead and blame the vaccinations. Very little urgency tonight.

 

[Sayba]

Let's trade Buch, Strome and Smith.

 

[CLW]

Cannot bench Ck for whatever reason

The FO gave him a huge contract.

None of us are at the rink and we all know Laf wasn't on the ice and that was a goal.

I watch every game and Igor has some gems this year. There will be times when the other goalie does more. I have seen many many games where backups stand on their heads against us. We have been spoiled with great goaltending throughout the years and it is noticeable when we don’t get it. Igor gets left out to dry a lot by our D. He also lets in softies like any goalie. I don’t think he stinks. I think he is very good and will get better. He made some good saves tonight but it wasn’t enough.

Sure, but how I think it's a bit too much to ask Igor to start scoring for us. Let's face it, you rarely win hockey games 1-0. These are football (soccer) numbers. If you only score 1 goal, saying the goalie didn't pull his weight is just wrong IMO. Especially in the regular season, I might get it in the playoffs.

Tough to win a game like that.

In what world did that look off the post lol

Sam off the juice

David is gonna get German Suplexed by Barry Trotz this weekend.

The point was you used the vaccine as an excuse.

I used it as a contributing factor. It's not an excuse. This team has done this for 2 years. They dominate when teams lie down, NYR is unable to usually dictate games and force their will on a team. They are reactive to what the other team gives them

lol, fair enough

Fire Quinn lives on. Guy is f***ing wet towel back there.

Rooney and Blackwell scoring for you and not your Stars? yeah recipe for disaster

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Hopefully this isn't what we see vs the Isles, though i am bracing for it

 

[bl02]

We are unlucky yet again i guess lol.
what a joke. right from the start. Lifeless. against a team missing some key players too

The Isles defense will stifle us. It wont be pretty

 

[Cmox]

And the rangers skate off with their balls in their hands

this is one of my take aways with Quinn as well. The strategic oneuppance is not at an NHL level with Quinn.

They might feel better by Sunday. These two games were recipe for disaster. Georgiev will have to steal one most likely if he's not sleepwalking like most the guys were tonight
