Post-Game Talk: Round 3, Game 2: Can the Rangers break the streak?????

[slipknottin]

I see a lot said about MSL's shot and Kreider's screen, but Stepan made a really great pass on that goal.

Stepan had an excellent game.

 

[THE BIG WHISTLE]

Maybe he should worry about scoring a couple first, then they can worry about how Lundqvist reacts to it. To say he has been lucky is one of the most moronic things I've heard.

Here is a guy that complained Boston didn't have respect for them and yet he shows utter disrespect to Hank and the Rangers. You just have to love that attitude

 

[RangerBoy]

Gallagher tried to stir **** up last night. Ignore him. Don't play his game. The Rangers did.

“@PLeonardNYDN: Vigneault has taken "betting man" act to a new level. Asked if Brassard will play in Game 3: "If I were a betting man." end sentence #hesin”

 

[Blue Blooded]

At least Pierre knows hockey, Emrick just screams, he's horrible, time to hang'em up...confuses McD and John Moore every shift

It is kind of funny though that Moore and McDonagh have similar frames, moves similarly on the ice, and have similar numbers (17 & 27).

Then we have the exact same thing with St. Louis and Zuccarello!

The Rangers must be a commentator's nightmare.

I don't watch much MTL hockey, but is Subban very overrated? All I have noticed about him is that he's got a huge shot, but he's also a diving, whiny *****.

Great player, but more flash than substance at times. He can be a turnover machine and can be frustrated. Our PK is also as good as any at focusing on one target and completely neutralizing that one target.

Awesome game last night. On a side note I was browsing a Rangers thread on facebook and someone posted a pic of this Lundqvist t shirt where it looks like a King of Hearts bicycle playing card but its Lunqvist instead. It looked so awesome and I have no clue how to find it.

On the St. Louis goal--that was an awful call on Galchenyuk. The goal gave us breathing room and that's a good example of how luck doesn't always even out. I'm happy that it benefited our team here but calls like that can go either way.

OTOH--a short time before that **** call--we all got to watch Mike Weaver slew foot Martin St. Louis in front of the net--and no call on that. That's a very dangerous play. Almost unbelievable that they let Weaver get away with that.

As it goes and will always go. People *****ing about the calls/missed calls are desperate to believe something else rather than their own team not getting it done. The only time complaining about calls is even somewhat understandable is when the refs clearly botch a goal/no goal because that is a goal earned/not earned that is taken away or given. A power play doesn't gaurantee a goal, one team or the other still has to make the goal happen or prevent it.

Seeing as the Rangers were on the wrong side of several clear goals/no goals this year, everyone saying the Rangers are getting all the breaks need to shut up and start holding the other team accountable for wilting when they need something big, or praising the Rangers for stopping them. I'll admit when the Rangers catch a break, but all teams do, just like all teams get screwed eventually. That's the game. It's one thing to complain about a bad or missed call in the moment of a game, but harping on it afterward and using it as an excuse is pointless.

Montreal can either play better and find a way to solve Lundqvist or they can go golfing and cry all off-season about Price and the Refs. Sounds like it will be the latter to me.

Kreidizzle?

 

[RangerBoy]

Therrien changed his mind 3 times when discussing Kreider and Price. Complaining about the officials. Subban saying Lundqvist is lucky. They keep trying to create issues to rally the troops. Montréal thought they won the Cup when they beat Boston. The Bruins did a possibility poor job on their penalty kill. Montréal tore them up for 8 goals. Montréal is 0-7 in the first 2 games. Rangers are 4-10 on the power play.

 

[poeman]

Kevin Klein looks like a Viking warrior.

Man, we are playing real well...We need to bring the tempo at home, because we all know how much Hank wants it and how much we want it

 

[Miamipuck]

I think the best is Kenny Albert son of Marv (I'm saving my voice for the Knicks) Albert

Kenny isn't bad at all, at least he has a better wig than the dead rat Marv has on his head.

Honestly, Pierre can be annoying, but he's pretty good. Doc and Eddie are awful though.

If Crosby took a steamer on center ice Pierre would enthusiastically make it the greatest steamer on the face of the earth. His enthusiasm is infectious but a little too hokey and over the top for me. lol He is knowledgeable.

Emrick should be rolled into a geriatric ward.

 

[WVULax22]

Kreidizzle?

"…and from that point on, he was always known as Kreidizzle."

 

[Ail]

Great player, but more flash than substance at times. He can be a turnover machine and can be frustrated. Our PK is also as good as any at focusing on one target and completely neutralizing that one target.

His worst quality is exactly what we saw last night in the waning minutes of the third. He was trying to force plays himself and will his way to the net around 4 Rangers. Sometimes they get lucky and it works, he had a good look last night, but ultimately that is a selfish and stupid play. You don't win big trying to do it all yourself, even more so for a defensemen. You'll never see McD get frustrated and basically say, "**** you guys, I'm going to try to be the hero!"

I like Subban but I'd take McD 10000000 out of 10 times over him.

The Rangers must be a senile commentator's nightmare.

Fixed that for you.

My new word. #kreidizzle

You could make a case that Hank has been unlucky, look at the goals they scored. Emelin the only time he was beat was a fluke shot, it was a great shot, the way it happened was fluky as he roofed it as he was going down and then the 2 ping pong shots. If Hank was really lucky he should/could have 2 shutouts.

 

[poeman]

Subban: "Lundqvist got lucky, and his luck will run out."

 

[Clown Fiesta]

Kreidizzle?

Apparently Nash is known as Slim.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

The main board is hilarious.

So many Habs fans living in fantasy. If we had Price blah blah blah.

Reality is that players are banged up this time of year. Teams play without players all the time. Deal with it. Stop whining.

I almost choked on my food when I saw a guy posting this:

"Price > Lundqvist"

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Subban: "Lundqvist got lucky, and his luck will run out."

Interesting. I would think that if Hank was lucky, Pacioretty's goal doesn't go in.

I can't understand one word Girardi is saying.

The reffing was extremely inconsistent last night. One call would be really ticky-tack, then they would let some ridiculous things go. And it was both sides. Therrien should keep his mouth shut, though, as Weaver's slew foot on MSL (who was not even close to harassing the goalie, btw) was infinitely worse than anything the Rangers "got away with." For the life of me, I have no idea why that wasn't called. Clear intent to injure a player that did absolutely nothing to instigate the situation.
