Red Wings take on Rangers

[Messiah717]

It's unfortunate Chuck left, but not surprised he did. The whining that goes on at every play is unbearable.

LOL clueless about that one too I see.

 

[Messiah717]

Did you not see the replays? or you did not gave your glasses on when they were showing them? Howards stick was outside the crease (while his body was inside the crease) when he made contact with Lindberg, who upon falling down swung his leg back kicking Howard on the face with his foot, whose body was INSIDE the crease.

Stop with the insults and stupid bullshit and have a discussion like a normal person. The rule is absurd and ambiguous no matter how you slice it.

 

[Messiah717]

Oh and huge shock. The team wins and everyone goes silent. That's the true joke around here.

 

[NYR31]

lol, so you have sensitive feelings like Chuck, too? Yes, the entire goalie interference crap is pure BS because many goals have been disallowed when they shouldn't be, but it should not have surprised anyone this goal was disallowed when the NHL has consistently disallowed every goal where any contact with the goalie has been made while he was in the crease, regardless of how it happened. It's very black and white, and it should not be b/c teams take advantage of it, but it is and they are consistent about it.

It just dosen't make much sense the league can't these things sorted out when they have a seperate dept for it. You can't blanket every type of goalie bump under a single decision. Plus the goal happened 3 or 4 secs afterward, its not as if the puck was in the air or about to be shot.

It's an obvious bad rule that should be addressed. That being the case there's nothing wrong with complaining about it.

717, you keep making the same, dumb, comment. The team wins and the board goes silent. That's because nobody here who has a clue gives a rats ass about regular season wins. For this team, it isn't about regular season wins. We have an aging goalie whose time is running out and a team that clearly hasn't competed with the elite teams in the league. In other words, has shown that it doesn't match up vs. the best. You are getting giddy over regular season wins. The team has an old fart making 4.5 on defense who stinks. Two guys on defense making over 11 million who are playing like bottom pairing defenseman. A 50 IQ power forward who can't finish and figure out how to use his talent. A 6'5 center who can't win draws and is lazy. A coach who continues to destroy any offense the 4th line might produce by putting a useless forward on that line because he has a man crush on him. A defenseman who they gave up an absurd amount for and can't sign. You want us to get excited. Ain't gonna happen.

Hank played another strong game, the occasional night off isn't going to hurt him. Hank has been interfered with worse than that disallowed goal numerous times this year and the officials haven't even gone to Toronto for a review so the notion that it's cut and dry on any play where a goalie gets hit is utter nonsense. The Rangers have a great young core of talent, don't know if they can count on Nash. Who cares whether someone is negative or positive on a message board?

So endless negativity is better? As for the season I would think an active message board where the team is discussed would be good. Otherwise what's the point? Only come here for the playoffs?

I was thinking of those hank plays myself panze, one of which was in the last couple of weeks. Problem is the goalie interference rule is similar to the nfl catch rule. No one knows what the hell constitutes either one.

I've been posting since the Renney days and if you think the board is negative now, the days of the old ESPN boards would have had you curled up in the fetal position sucking your thumb. No endless negativity here, I think this team is a player or two away from being a Cup contender but if gloom and doom is what someone else posts ignore it, argue against it or give them the Ned Flanders okely dokely treatment.

One would think a speedy, up tempo offense like the Rangers would draw their fair share of calls but as of today the Rangers rank 30th in PP opportunities (166/26th in 2015) but keep telling your conspiracy stories 31.

 

[Messiah717]

LOL the good old ESPN days. If anyone remembers the most absurd board was the main NFL board they had. It was ridiculous but there were some fun times over there.

 

[BigDaddyAl1973]

Dump calling Mess now as only 717, all downhill from here.
