Game Thread: Pittsburgh Penguins(1) vs New York Rangers(2)

Hank could stop 99 out of 100 shots and if they lose 1-0 then it's Hank's fault.

But if they win then Cam takes credit, even if he doesn't play.

That no where near what has happened in both series.....get real

Rangers are 0 for 36 on the power play in these playoffs , really tells you what type of goalie Lundqvist is :rollseyes:

Hank job is to stop shots the offensive pp is not for him to worry about and to boot he was one of top goalies to give up the short-Handers

See im not even going to try anymore think what you want I dont care. Since we all know you dont even watch the games why dont you become an Islanders fan then you would have a legit reason to hate the goaltending.

In fairness to stealth, he doesn't necessarily have a problem with the Rangers' goaltending, he just has a problem with Henrik Lundqvist. He loves Cam Talbot. Trade Talbot to the Islanders and maybe Stealth will follow?

Just think, we gave up Dubinsky, Anisimov and Callahan for all this offense.

WOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

That's probably because the Rangers aren't too good at holding the puck in their offensive zone from the point (exception: Ryan McDonagh).

Cam isnt going anywhere but Hank is......the future for Hank is bench

Well fuck him, he was soft. At least he was in Blue.

Keep telling yourself that and maybe it will sting less when you end up being wrong.

Choke=shorthander+ towards end of the period

All that money to sit on the bench?

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Ok stealth is right, Hank choked there.

Time for MLB

See stealth, MAF gives up bad goals too.

One thing is apparent from watching the Rangers this series is that they miss the physical play and leadership of Ryan Callahan. He would go to the net, set screens, cause deflections, and put back rebounds. There's no one who does that for this Ranger squad other than maybe Benoit Pouliot. As a result, all the Pens have to do is fall back in our own zone and force the Rangers to the perimeter. MAF sees the shots all the way, and naturally makes the easy saves. If the Rangers are going to comeback in this series, someone needs to go to the net and do the stuff Callahan used to do for the team. Rick Nash needs to use his size better, Derek Stepan needs to use his speed better, & Martin St Louis needs to take more shots. I feel that the Rangers have been very reluctant in this series (almost playing with fear) and that's going to have to change if they're going to comeback in this series. Game 5 should be interesting, now that they got their backs to the wall, they need to get out of their comfort zone and put it all on the line.

Just heard that Martin St Louis's mom passed away. Really sad, that would probably be the worst day of my life. Thoughts and prayers, hopefully he'll have the support from friends, family, fans, & teammates. Much sympathy from the Doobster.

Good game Ranger fans, happy for MSL. Hopefully we close the series out in 6 tho.
