That's exactly what needs to be done at the deadline. We would be sitting so damn pretty.

Flames fans complaining about the breakaways that we stopped, calling them "illegal". I thought they were good plays.

Every fanbase will have a few that cry about calls or non-calls. Refs let a lot of things go tonight so it's expected. It would be the same here if the roles were reversed.

There wasn't much penalty worthy in the game. Kreider got away with tripping Russell. It was pretty similar to Monahan's trip of Zuccarello--only this was in Calgary's defensive end. I think there was a high stick against a Rangers player that didn't get called.
I bet he was up and down taking care of the baby and fell asleep on the couch with the kid on his shoulder.

Ugly game but lots of positives here too. I thought Calgary played afraid of us and really parked the bus. We found a way to break them down finally, and kept them off the scoresheet. Not exactly beautiful, but that's a winning formula. I thought McDonagh was absurdly good tonight, jumping in and recovering before Calgary could catch him. Hayes continues to be legendary. Sometimes when you need a break down a team that's turtling a star player has ot make a star play, that was Brassard. He's legit.
I'm more pleased with this than I was with our recent 4+ for both teams wins. Maybe it's the soccer fan in me.

More pleased with the Isles win because they're a better team plus it was in their barn and we came back from 2 goals down 3 times, including the 3rd period in regulation. But outside of that I agree. It's nice that this team can win like that now but Talbot not being able to stop a beach ball and the D being mediocre was getting old.

Kreider has quietly been very good for at least the last few games.
Seriously, I can't remember the last time I watched him lose a board battle.

i.e. you can compliment Talbot without starting a diatribe about whether or not he will/can be a starter in his career, or how important Lundqvist is to the team.
Highlights of the game:
- Kevin "David Thornton Schwimmer Light" Hayes
- Lindy had his first creepy Al interview.
- Glass took a decent shot
- I don't need to take melatonin tonight, thanks Calgary.
Cal Clutterbuck already has the David Schwimmer look alike award locked up.

Thank you. Good to hear. Will step away from the ledge now
I know many thought this may have been a boring game but this team did what they had to do to win!
Playing a desperate, good young hockey team. Missing our two best players.
I thought we had the better of play and deserved to win... Oh and let the haters keep hating

He was working out with bags of pucks from his GOALS and he was lifting them with his neck.
No doubt whatsoever i agree. Either AV will have to swallow his pride and sit Glass in favor of Fast when the playoffs start or we will have to hold our collective breaths every time the 4th line is on the ice.
I would love a Winnick type on the 4th line. There has to be someone out there we can add to the 4th line without giving up more than a 3rd round pick.
Vermette is gonna cost a kings ransom. Not interested in giving up a lot of youth and future for him

I don't know why, but this reminded me of the 24/7 the Rangers were part of in 11-12. When Gaborik put the Christmas tree on his shoulder and walked off down the street, I thought "oh my god, should he really be doing that? What if he hurts his shoulder?"
And then, of course, Gaborik had a shoulder injury during the playoffs. I know they have nothing to do with each other, but I blame us missing the Finals on his buying that tree.
Wow lol. I thought he played a solid game and did not look out of place at all. I guess its good news cause that means Nash or Fast are back for the next game...Or hopefully both?
If this is baby related, Rick's wife needs to pick up the slack. He's a possible Hart trophy finalist.
At around 2:15 left in the 3rd Miller has a great shift defensively staying with his man in his own end. Great positioning and physical work

Miller is playing absolutely stellar... I'm SO excited for him.
Hayes is a super star in the making
Lindberg looked alright. had a shot on goal, didn't notice him otherwise.
That shift where Hagelin played in Glass' position.... holy hell, that was awesome to see. It's funny what happens when you put 3 competent players on one line
AV needs to wake up about Glass. He's absolutely ****ing terrible in the offensive zone
