Feels like a playoff game

You need to understand the definition of the crease and know the rules. The crease is a vertical entity. The lines on the ice extend upwards. If you catch the puck and hold it in your glove on the crease it's a penalty shot whether it's on the ice or in the air. That's why guys bat the puck away with their glove if it's in the air in the crease. If it's out of the crease in the air a lot of players will grab the puck or catch it and drop in a controlled manner to make a play...

That's a fine interpretation of the rule but it doesn't say that.

Guys bat the puck instead of catching it because that's a penalty anywhere on the ice.

We'd be winning this game if we had Howden

Against Tampa

 

[LeetchisGod]

The team is completely inept offensively.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Othmann will save us.

 

[TGWL]

This team would prefer to shoot on an angle than from the middle.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I've never seen a team less clutch. How many f***ing fans and missed nets can you have? Miller must have 3 in that period alone.

Another failure on home ice against a team that looked like crap against NJ/NYI
Shocker

The middle means work.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Move Miller to the bumper please

 

[CasusBelli]

This asshole going into full Roy mode.

 

[DuneGoon84]

Trotchek was abysmal

 

[ReddestRum]

Does this team even have a plan when it crosses the blue line or is it just guesses on what to do?

 

[Machinehead]

Move Miller to the bumper please

Move Miller off the powerplay

No three-game winning streak since November. That is when the season was lost. The way the league is now, you need multiple multi-game winning streaks to make the playoffs.

It's like they're missing that last mile. They can create the chances but when the puck is on the stick for the final play, the guy doesn't know what to do or flubs it

 

[McRanger92]

Rangers about to lose a game that McDavid doesn’t record a shot. That’s not on the defenseman or rookies.

 

[17futurecap]

Wow, Sam didn’t cheat.

 

[Machinehead]

Joe guessed Hank and Kevin Weekes?

Joe, Hank had 8 by himself multiple times.

 

[TGWL]

The middle means work.

Seems like less work when you already had the puck there.

There ya go lol

 

[Megustaelhockey]

That's your ball game.

 

[Bob Richards]

That'll do it

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Welp that was bound to happen
