Post-Game Talk: Penguins @ Rangers: Pittsburgh, please.

[SnowblindNYR]

Anyone else annoyed at Milbury saying that the Rangers may look at this game and think "we're not that bad". I'm sure that's how the Rangers think. They had a tough start and he's making us sound like the Sabres. Listening to him you'd think it was a big tough kid losing to his mentally challenged younger brother.

MAN, I enjoyed that. Damn near everyone played well.

I dropped out of the GDT early - can someone please explain the "[mangled name], pls" meme?

BroklynRongorsFon, pls.

Huge props to AV for playing Byron instead of Brian Boyle tonight.

I still remember Doc calling him Byron in the playoffs and I almost choked on my beer.

 

[trilobyte]

I've watched that video twice and yet to see a fight.

Another poster mentioned that they thought Dorsett was cut prior to the 'fight'. That could possibly explain things.

 

[aufheben]

Boyle corsied at 75% tonight. Staal 82.4%.

:swoon:

But what does that mean?

Edit: Nvm I'll just look it up before I get pls-ed.

Yeah that was a little puzzling. The Rangers aren't a bad team. They are a team that was discombobulated to start the season under a new coach and struggled for about 7 games. The only people thinking the Rangers are a bad team are people who only look at the stats and standings. They've been playing well ever since the Red Wings game. And in the absence of their best scorer at that.

NEW YORK – Before Wednesday night’s Metropolitan Division matchup between the Penguins and Rangers (7-8-0), there was talk from the Pens locker room of trying to bury a team that stood ten points behind them in the standings when the puck was dropped.

Don’t start shoving dirt on the Rangers. Behind two points from Brian Boyle, a much-needed goal from defenseman Ryan McDonagh, and 28 saves from Henrik Lundqvist, the Rangers put Pittsburgh’s talk to bed with a 5-1 thrashing at the Garden.

“It’s a little early to be watching the standings,†Penguins defenseman Matt Niskanen said before the game, according to The Record’s (N.J.) Andrew Gross. “But, we have an opportunity to bury some of these teams beneath us. If we keep winning, it could get some of those teams in the bottom of the standings out of our hair.â€

oofhobon, pls

It means when Boyle was on the ice at 5-on-5, 75% of the total shots taken were directed towards the opposing net.

O. Sweet. So you can get 100%?

Hahaha. Oh, I get how it's done. I meant the context - how did it start?

Over a small sample, it's possible. You just couldn't be on for the other team attempting a shot on goal. So pretty much all offensive zone time.

 

[Wolfy*]

Carry on this huge momentum, tomorrow we'll crush the Blue Jackets, and say hello to some old friends.

Kreider with a huge hit on Dubinsky and Gaborik

Seems like Milbury has it out for the Rangers and is also not paying attention. The Rangers are 7-8 after 15 games, not the end of the world. They had a few horrible games and it makes people think that these are the same Rangers. Since they came back east they had one real hiccup against NJ with an injured Lundqvist giving up bad goals, mind you.

I wonder how this team will look with Nash back, and Kreider still [hopefully] up.
