Game 2 Rangers at @ Jackets

[kreidertime]

It would be nice with the first four games being very winnable to start 4-0 before going out west for 5 and then playing Carolina coming home.

What the hell happened to Lindgren?

 

[faatanqui]

Lindgren blocked puck with hand last game… probably broke something

 

[faatanqui]

Dam. That was quick!!!

1zip

 

[kreidertime]

Watch with this fucking feed cutting out

 

[kreidertime]

He was skating and pregame, so I doubt it’s broken

 

[kreidertime]

Fix the broadcast you stupid Midwest fucks.

 

[kreidertime]

Jones you dope

 

[mrmel29]

Mika makes it 2-1

 

[mrmel29]

Crap another goal taken off for offsides. That’s 2 this period. Still 1-1

 

[kreidertime]

The only way Columbus can win is by challenging

 

[faatanqui]

Rangers playin great. Jackets coaches great

 

[NYR31]

That’s so close.

 

[NYR31]

Don’t think that’s a goal

 

[Messiah717]

This has been crazy. Three goals taken off the board.

 

[faatanqui]

Throw it at net!!!!

 

[kreidertime]

Rangers aren’t playing great they’re playing with her head up the ass defensively

 

[faatanqui]

Get Kreider in front of net WTF

 

[kreidertime]

Terrible first period

 

[Messiah717]

They lost momentum with the goals getting called back. Need to get back to their game in the second.

 

[mrmel29]

Keep shooting and they’ll start going in

 

[faatanqui]

Shoot the dam puck panarin

 

[Ranger71]

Freakin Kakko, shoot the puck.

 

[kreidertime]

Didn’t do anything they did in the first game. Didn’t shoot enough. Didn’t clog up the neutral zone. Thus they sucked.

I don't know, they outshot CBJ 42-21, that's a good # of shots for, and a low # of shots against. Won over 57% of FO's. Won't argue they played as well as game 1, hits and blocked shots both down, that was almost a perfect game, but I think they were okay. Truth be told, I think two disallowed goals in a few minutes stretch played with their heads a bit and gave CBJ a jolt. I think if either of those goals count, we have a different outcome.

Player wise, Cuylle played well, I didn't like what Jones and Schneider did at all, and I don't think Igor was sharp.

Overall, I didn't like the result, but I am not sitting here saying OMG they were terrible and didn't show up.

 

[faatanqui]

Rangers scored 5 goals and lost

put 10 in 2 games

Missing lindgren

came back at games end

all good signs

 

[Ranger71]

They scored 3 goals, not 5.

 

[faatanqui]

2 were taken away by inches of being off side … not the fault of the scorer , freekin Kreider

 

[kreidertime]

When goals are taken away, they don’t count.

 

[NYR_94]

I think it was just one of those weird games. The Rangers did not play as well as they did in Buffalo, and they were sloppy at times, but they played an okay game, with clear things for Lavy to focus on in practice to cleanup.

3 goals are 3 goals, but they did put 5 pucks in the net, 2 of which were reversed because of being barely offsides, which did not have anything to do with the goals (which is different than the CBJ reversed goal which was not a goal and didn't go in).

If Lindgren is out for a little bit, Jones and Schneider need to be much better, they were not good. Wheeler needs to play better as well. Outside of that I think they were sloppy at times, but okay overall, and if they could have stayed onsides I think they win the game, but they didn't, and a loss is a loss.

Looking forward to the home opener tomorrow night.
