Solid start to the year. Beating the champs in their own building after the banner raising. Hank was great, Stallinberg was great, Yandle-Klein was great and Zuccarello was quietly excellent defensively. Top-4 defense was bad, Brassard was bad.
Not a bad game. The first period was well played. I thought we would have scored a couple more, but a W is a W. Held on and lived through a heart attack. Classic Rangers win. Love it.
A lot of people are going to need to get a better handle on their nerves here or it's going to be a long difficult season for you.
Anyway, I thought the Rangers played pretty well. Lundqvist needed to be good, but I wouldn't call it a stand on his head performance. Lots of clear views and easy saves.
Not too worried about the quick whistle, since the refs basically gifted the Hawks a goal earlier on the blown icing call.
