Rangers-Dirtbag Flyers thread

[kreidertime]

Only way Stepan could score is an open net the way he's played this season. Holden has been pretty good this season so far.

Beautiful goal from Vesey to Puempel.

With a 3-1 lead in the third period, Rangers just dumping the puck in allowing Flyers to move into
the Ranger zone with ease. Don't like this. Rangers need to move into Flyer zone.

 

[cagedlion]

The Flyer goal was allowed after it was "kicked" in. So says the league!
A colossal NHL joke!

It amazes me how many times the Rangers deflect shots past Hank.

 

[Ranger71]

Defense is just too soft.

 

[cagedlion]

Flyers within one. They pulled their goalie and are causing havoc.
Rangers just could not clear their zone.

This is what happens when you simply dump a puck in the zone with no offensive zone pressure or possession. This team is struggling the past few games. Need to regroup and get their heads outta their asses. Losing Z has really seemed to hurt this team as they can't win a faceoff to save their lives.

This team needs more defense. 42 shots against. This is quickly dissolving into what this team was last year. A lot of offense but no defense. They need to make trades, and soon. Gotta move pieces and get some dmen here because this can't continue if they wish to go deep into the playoffs. If they want another 1st round exit, then they're all set.

What a game by Henrik. Team clearly didn't have their best stuff and he goes out and absolutely steals one when we had no business winning.

When he's down he gets thrown under the bus immediately, but when he puts on a gem of a performance like that not a peep. Can't say I'm surprised.

 

[Ranger71]

You had to think he would have a real bounceback today and he did, though half the defenseman look like theyre skating around on crutches.

 

[theProdigy223]

McDonagh and Skjei continue to shine, but it's not great behind them. Holden has been solid since being taken off top pair but Staal is looking slow after his good start. Klein still hasn't found his game yet. I wouldn't say it's panic time back there but you'd like to see them win some more board battles. That's been their weak point in my opinion. The puck handling and decision making has been ok, but they're losing far too many pucks along the boards.

 

[Messiah717]

Road wins against division rivals are all good wins. This was also the fifth game in seven days.

 

[Ranger71]

They really need Klein to get back to what he was but maybe he just won't.

 

[cagedlion]

21 SOG in that 3rd period. Hank again was left out there to dry.
Yes, Flyers should have won this game. Rangers cannot keep shiting
the bed and expect Hank to save their asses. Yes, this game was like
last year's team. I hope this does not become habit forming.

 

[Messiah717]

The Rangers have scored 85 goals. The number two team in the NHL has 67. A game like this is what Hank gets paid a lot of money for.

Finally a fight!
