Authority is not given to Snowblind to deny the return of the King
 
dude YOU made the title of the thread in the main board "Lundqvist is no longer elite".

YOU said that...not me.

Where was I? Not posting about it because I knew he'd turn it around. Find one post about me complaining about Hank...

Dude, he said I'm arguing about Hank with people, you and Fail were clearly goading me and that's why I responded. All I was saying.
 
Yea. What a bizarre career stralman has had.

Was brought in as a PP guy and an offensive type player who struggles defensively . And he turns into a defensive stud who has little to no offensive ability.


I couldn't have said it any better myself. It's a very weird idea, that you see only happen when the strongest aspect of their game doesn't work and they need to adapt to hang around in the show. My god though he looks really freaking solid out there.
 
Even if we gave up a lot of quality chances in our own end. When the result is what it is, you cant possibly say that it wasnt exciting, or a great game to watch.

It is possible to enjoy games where offense is the sole focus of the game, and both ends give up a lot of chances. *Especially* when we win.
 
Right, I criticize Lundqvist and in return I get posts saying something about my "****ed up head". I criticize a player and I get personally attacked. There's an incongruity.

I know you weren't quoting me, but:

Personal attacks aren't my thing (actually they so ARE my thing, just not on the internet). All we were doing was pointing out some things you said that in retrospect, seem fairly silly. It happens....

And from here until the end of days, Snowblind will Denethor to me.

My god, the contempt. The sensationalism. He WOULD try to burn members of this team alive out of the delusion that they were dead.


It's perfect.
 
Good game.

No team has put 48 shots on Detroit this season. You have to go back to Jan 7 2010 to find a team that put up 48 ***** or more against Detroit. I know they have a lot of injuries, but they have had that all year and not been a pushover. They are coming off a 3-1 win against LA before loosing 1-0 against Anaheim, with more or less the same roster we saw.

Also, re the comment of the game, I think many are commenting on the quality of it. It was really entertaining. It wasn't like watching paint dry while some annoying next door kid is throwing sand at it.

Not to mention LA STOMPED on the Red-Hot Blues last night 4-1, which shows what a quality team detroit actually is... Detroit played a tight game, that was not a **** team combined with the Rangers "lack" of scoring ability. Howard stopped about 8-12 prime scoring chances, as well as several 2 and 3 shot rebound attempts. In all honesty, 48 shots on goal, and I would deem, at most, 8 of those shots as low-quality shots.

The rest was outstanding:

- Shots from the point
- shots from the high slot
- tic-tac-toe across the low slot
- grinding out in the corners
- winning the board battles
- Solid Checking
- Heart and emotion finally showing
- Several players playing with a physical and Mental Edge

Jurco and Dekeyser played very well, the Wings always retooling with young players.

AGrred, DeKeyser was very noticable. THe wings are a solid team. I wouldn't be surprised to see them start to bounce some crappy teams like MTL and TOR out of the playoff race soon enough

In retrospect because of 5 good games? His numbers are still pretty mediocre.
 
What a boring game, only one goal scored :sarcasm:

But the Vikings saved us, Hank and Zuke, also the first two stars of the game :)
 
Is snowblind actually hockeyrodent or something now that he doesnt ***** and moan on his crappy website?

They gave up 45 shots twice in the past two weeks before last night.
 
Listen, we're not all fans with rose-colored worship Lundqvist glasses, he's been weak this season, even though he's playing better as of late, that doesn't erase his putrid start to the year, and snowblind has a right to post his opinions, as do the rest of us, so stop with the personal attacks, we are all rangers fans and every one has something to contribute we are all Ranger fans in the end.
 
Quincy took a run at Kreider in the first period. In the second period,Kreider hit Quincey in the face with the stick. Abdelkader was involved with Girardi in the first and Kreider went after Abdelkader. Kreider is approaching James Neal territory. Kreider likes getting involved physically. He shoved Upshall earlier this season in the boards. There was the boarding call with Tyutin. Kreider is on the edge. He plays with an edge. Phaneuf challenged him a few weeks ago.

Good to see.

Agreed the kid is strong, fast and fearless, reminds me of a bigger, faster, Gravy
