Rangers vs Panthers

[Rangers94]

First goal against caused by Hayes unwilling to shoot, then compounding that by screwing up and turning it over in the neutral zone on the PP and that led to Florida getting the PP. Then he makes another stupid play running into the goalie. He needs some bench time.

 

[Rangers94]

They've become that pass happy team from last season where no one wants to shoot. That's a BAD habit to get into. They need to break that habit immediately.

 

[cagedlion]

Of course, Yandle scores his first goal of the season on the PP at MSG! Unreal.

 

[cagedlion]

This is the second of 10 consecutive games against Eastern teams and it's starting to look that those
5 goal games will be tougher to come by. Hopefully they play smart and be on the winning end of these
tight games.

 

[Ranger71]

That does not look good for Z.

 

[Messiah717]

Hope for the best but I'd be shocked if he didn't break his leg.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Im no doctor but that looks like a torn ACL to me. that suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks. Good dude.

 

[Messiah717]

Nice two handed slash to Hayes not called.

 

[cagedlion]

Bad break! And two with Pens coming up. Fortunes in this game happen real fast.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Rangers don't look good 3-on-3

 

[Messiah717]

Sadly, I just don't see how that's not going to be a serious injury.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Yeah, i suspect he is going to miss the rest of the year

 

[Greyvtrayn]

what a bullshit goal.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

that was def over the line

 

[Messiah717]

I will always hate the shootout. A dumb skills competition. Not to mention Hank who used to be good on breakaways completely sucks on them now.

 

[kreidertime]

It's not the knee. It's the ankle. I suspect 6 weeks. Sucks. Hank sucks in the shootout as well now. Getting old.

 

[Stepupstepan]

broken fibula - out 6 to 8 weeks.

 

[Messiah717]

broken fibula - out 6 to 8 weeks.

As I mentioned in the other thread at least it's not ligament damage which would likely be the season. He can return from this at least.

 

[cagedlion]

Depth. Depth. Depth. Do the Rangers have it? We are all going to find out.

 

[Ranger71]

That's good that it wasn't season ending as it looked worse. They do lucky have the depth with Lindberg, Jooris and even Nieves.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^Thank goodness. I was not able to listen to Sam on MSG. Had to listen via iPad to Florida feeds
and there is no worse than hearing an obnoxious Denis Potvin do the analyst commentary. I wanted
to throw up listening to his digs from the booth. Ugh!
