Not the best game of Lundqvist's career, but easily the gutsiest. Amazing game, and I can only tip my hat to him for staying in there.

So happy that Hayes and Kreider finally found themselves on the same line - not only because I'm a proud BC alum who has met both, but because Kreider is exactly the guy that Hayes needs to emulate. Hopefully Kreider's edge and mentality rubs off on Hayes. Tonight, it did. Let it continue to grow. Hayes needs a mean streak. And boy what a beast he would be with a little more aggressiveness and physicality in his repertoire.
He has put in great work lately. Not much offensive output, but tonight was a start. Perfect 4th liner, imo.
The Carolina broadcast said that this will only add to the legend of Henrik Lundqvist.
I ride the guy harder than almost everyone here, but tonight's performance is why I absolutely love him.
If he can get one Cup, he will be the Derek Jeter of New York hockey.
BTW, Chris Kreider was amazing tonight.

First period we were sloppy and lucky. Second period we sucked the first half and after that we were really strong. I think Carolina played last night--part of it was they kind of wilted.

He's the prototype of the 4th liner of the future that can skate and move the puck.
i was listening to the radio feed at work. anyone have a video of Hank getting hit in the neck? ive looked everywhere i can think of.

My top 3 :
Hank
Kreider
Fast
Fast can play on the top 9 easy, he is better than a typical 4th liner give him time the offense will come.

Kreider is playing full beast mode again, if he can keep this up for the rest of the season he will come close to 30 goals on the season ( he won't though, but man do I wish he could consistently play like this)
Just as at times he negatively amazes me, it's games like this that let my jaw drop at Lundqvist sometimes. I wish this were a more important game, I feel like it'll get lost in the shuffle. If that were a playoff game that would be the stuff of legends.

Fast and Kreider had outstanding games. The 3rd period was excellent. Lundqvist was amazing and even though he'll have a brain fart time to time, there's no questioning his toughness or passion and the guy is everything I want in a New York Ranger.
Hopefully this momentum carries over to the next one.

Rangers fans will know and quite frankly, that's all that really matters. I hope it never happens in a playoff game because I'm not sure I would recover as fast as Lundqvist would.

Good turnaround in the last 30 minutes. We started out really sloppy and were lucky to be two goals up. Hank (WARRIOR) was immense and was the only reason we stayed ahead.
The line changes were long overdue but they happened and it seemed to revive the squad. St. Louis, as I've been saying many times, needs to play with Nash. The two read each other like a book. Hayes also looks a completely different player when he has quality alongside of him.
There have been a few coaches who are always changing around the lines, Mike Keenan was one of them. AV is obviously not that kind of coach and it took several games for him to do the obvious but it really looks like this team shifts gears when there's a shakeup. Our biggest problem over stretches of games is that we fall into a rut and this is a logical way of slapping our players on the back of the head.
