Jfc refs. Put the whistles away and just let us watch the best goal-scorer of his generation pot another one.

Dan is greatest player ever to grace the NHL.





in Vigno's world.

I don't think Brad Park would be a Norris winner in 2017 either.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

At least it looks like AV finally decided to bench Staal.

Give away by G included, hes easily been the worst player on the ice.

And that is exactly why hanks stats are down this year... hard to have good stats when defencemen keep turning the puck over right in the slot..

This has been going on for years it didn't just start this season.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

That play would have been ****ing dirty by Grabs.

Everything he does is dirty. Love Grabs.

The wave-off was for offside. The whistle was for the puck touched with the high stick.

 

[Fataldogg]

The first goal was caused by him basically giving the Flames the puck on a silver platter, though. Hard goal to stop? Sure. But completely his fault.

This goal was at least 50% G's fault and 50% his fault. This last goal was a tag-team effort.

I agree. Lundqvist made an awful pass up the middle, that one though I felt would have been an easy, routine play if Holden moved out of the way

I mean, this season just shows everyone how good Hank was over the years. His ability to mask bad or below average defense was incredible.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Nice back check Mats.

This has been such a weird game that the goal actually made sense, somehow. LOL.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Nashty shot.

 

[MrEctions]

The problem with praising girardi history here is he also has the history of being the worst dman the past 3 years

Agreed. But the guy was a warrior for us in his career. I don't hate him as he has been a faithful and loyal Ranger. But his time is done, it has been for the last few years. It's painfully obvious he can't keep up with the play anymore, it's just too fast a game for him to process.

I wonder if opponents are trash talking him on the ice about the game having passed him by.

I like this new Vesey line also.

Get Buch off the 4th and KEEP MILLER AND HAYES SEPARATED and I like what we have.

Wait how would this even work lol

 

[nyrleetch]

It's because this team doesn't need to play "good" hockey to score goals.

IIRC it was like the last game of the 2013-14 regular season and AV wanted to rest him for the playoffs.

So when we bench him we go to finals!?

Yep.

I don't think that even counts as a scratch within this context.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

HUGE BLOCK by Fast

 

[I Eat Crow]

Great gutsy end to the game

 

[nevesis]

Thank god

 

[Irishguy42]

Good hold at the end.
