Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Canes - 3/11/14

Bad loss. Not a whole lot more that can be said about it. Nobody was on the same page at any time.

Kind of crazy how this team can have games like that so far into the season. I think McD hit on it with his post game comments though - the kind of game that they play, they don't have a chance if they're out of sync with one another. Too many quick decisions need to be made.

Also from Carolina, @JimCerny reporting Raphael Diaz is skating with John Moore and both are working with PP2. Klein paired with Falk.

Why sit Klein who has played well, sit Stralman...

Aside from the goal, he had a pretty bad game. I mean, so did almost everyone, but still.

These type of games end up killing teams when the playoffs are on the line!

I don't see how AV is an idiot for scratching the worst defenseman on the team.

That aside, if they plan on keeping Diaz fresh, he'll need to play a few games down the stretch.

Agreed. I really liked the Diaz addition, I think he has some untapped potential to be a good bottom pair defender.
