Brutal, frustrating game to watch. Everyone doing too much. Only one dangerous shot and that was Kap's goal.

Rangers played fantastic. Thought they really came to play. They gave us so many chances to take the game over but no pulse tonight.

Happy bday to the horseshoe goalie.

If we played every game like this game, we would win more than lose. Definitely better than last night.

Hard to be mad. Nylander and Hyman looked very good.

The troubling part is we couldn't bury a couple of PP goals...would have tilted the game in our favour...the PP has been close to the bottom of the league for a while now.

Gotta throw out this loser sparks now, gotta get a guy who can win when the team doesnt score 5. These points are too important at this time of year to care about what we invested into this loser.

Just not good enough. This wasn't getting stoned by a goalie playing out of his mind. The only time the Rangers goalie had to do that was one powerplay. After that it was far off shots and easy ones to stop. We helped pad his stats and never really threatened to score after the first period.

The powerplay needs to be better and this is another game where we lose out on points because it wasn't good enough. It had moments, but if you don't score that's it. Matthews and the rest of the elite forwards on this team have to be better than this. They lost a game they could have easily won. But by the third they just didn't have any effort left to give and that was that.

Our powerplay is so so so so bad. Sparks let in a couple of questionable goals, but we lost this game when we failed to capitalize on the man advantage.

Also their backup had the game of his life.

Apparently we should have lost last night with the way we played (at least according to some). With the way we played tonight we should have won but didn't. It goes that way some times.

56 shots on net but we still lose. Better cancel the parade. Lmao y'all are ridiculous. I'm not losing any sleep over that one.

Matthews wasn't amazing, but he was nowhere near as bad as some of these posts make him out to be.
