stepan should be sent to AHL for conditioning

In the future he can be a stud, we agree there. Bottom line is he's a solid player now. He had 7 points (4 goals) in his last 21 games. He has been playing around 12 mpg, please let's not say missing Kreider is why we lost to the 5th worst team in the NHL...please.

I knew this would happen. If we lose a game, or struggle we'll say oh if we only had Kreider. No excuses. We didn't have our game last night. Hank let in a very soft winning goal. That's it. Let's hope we play better tomorrow night at Edmonton, we need to win that game.

They also lose a lot of close games because their top forwards like Nash don't contribute consistently. Nash's numbers rely heavily on basically one out of this world month. The rest of the season he has 12 goals.

100% Mess. Nash has to raise his level as well. He made some nice plays last night, but didn't finish. Nash, MSL, MZA, and so on all need to step up their games.

Mother f'ing St. Louis. That was so f'ing stupid. That's game now. Very frustrating game. Outside of a 3 minute stretch we really didn't get our game going.

Makes the Edmonton game a huge game...especially if the Flyers beat the Bruins earlier in the day Sunday.

That was a terrible call; could have called interference (against Calgary) or just let them play on. Personally, I would have just let them play on. Maybe it will awaken a more angry MSL ...

 

[chuckd3534]

I disagree jam. That is a text book holding penalty on MSL. Dumb play to grab and spin him there.

 

[Pastafazul]

hate to beat a dead horse, but AV was the biggest goat of the game. His decision to play dorsett cause his ties to calgary caused the 1st goal, dorsett tryin to impress created the PP early on eventually that decided game!

lundy's mishap would not even have come into play had game not started off the way it did.

i like the way this team is playing, you want to single out individuals? c'mon!! no way every single player is going to play to the best of their abilities at same time, its impossible!

 

[Stepupstepan]

Dorsett took a dumb penalty but the fourth line played really well the rest of the game. Speaking of fourth line, I think we finally have a decent bottom line that can actually dominate the other teams bottom line.

Chuck, if anybody was going to disagree with me, I knew it would be you.

The way I saw it, MSL was impeded on his attempt to get to the net. Calgary stole it, which is exactly what I would have done had I been skating in front of MSL. No call would have been the right call.

 

[cagedlion]

MSL does not look like a sniper in a the Ranger uniform.

Hank would be my third goat of the game. The fourth goat is his tantrums.

They're called emotions, and players that want to play well and win usually show them. He knew the goal was on him, and it showed by his emotions.
