First shot on hank and 1-0 lightning. Then dorsett with his obligatory get his ass kicked fight by a guy about twice his size. LOL. 2 shots and 2 goals hank looking real sharp in the nets. Crap
The general issue is they don't have alot of overall skill still on the roster, so even with the better puck possession alot of them just can't beat a goalie without a perfect play or rebound/deflection. Next FA period they need to upgrade. Or earlier.
Didn't get this game where I was and I'm glad. The Rangers with this system have outplayed some of the best teams in the league. They have had some tough losses vs those top teams. Many for which Nash wasn't present. I'm assuming they had one of those games where everybody just sucked. I've seen this before when they go to Florida. I suspect they were out in the nice weather, getting hammered while golfing. Golfing is something they might do early if they don't put together a nice win streak.
I'd offer a 1st, Miller and Skjei and see where that goes. That might be enough to get close. Skjei should be solid but they can replace him down the line.
Absolutely no Skjei or a first. Rangers need the next wave of young players. A lot of salaries are gettiing high. Skjei with his incredible skating and great size fits perfectly on this team.
