whats more useless Boyle on a breakaway or Jagr in the shootout?

 

[rholt168]

I have it down as 93% his fault.

Best I can do is 76%

 

[3rd Guy High]

Also, Hank needs to make some big saves. Emery has made them. Nash has looked good. McD not so much. Match Staal vs Giroux with Girardi if you have to. Give him a break.

Hope for something from the Zuccarello line this period.

 

[BarbaraAlphanse]

McDonagh with the worst defensive read ever on that Flyers goal. Looked like a 7th defender.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

McDonagh fell down, and Richards tripped over him, while MSL passed the puck to the two fallen players. It was a complete comedy of errors.

A comedy of errors that only this team can seemingly put together.

 

[Fataldogg]

Hank needs some fast acting Advil this period as a precaution.

Forget the over the counter stuff, get this man whatever he needs for us to get a W!

 

[Riche16]

So, that goal is 100% his fault.

The guys turning it over are not at fault?

St. Louis had the puck and a clear lane to the red line... He passed it backwards for ****s sake! That goal was more on him than anyone. Poops idiotic penalty aside.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Did the Charlie feed go down after the period?

 

[jgrangers2]

He did, but that was on Beav giving it away in the neutral zone.

Not the best attempt by Hank, but not much he was going to do with that one.

It wasn't Richards. It was St. Louis passing to a spot on the ice where McD was laying on his stomach. There was absolutely no reason for him to even think about making that pass.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

Guys.. Staaaaaaaaal will save us

 

[SA16]

A comedy of errors that only this team can seemingly put together.

Yes rather similar to the comedy of errors made by Emery trying to go post to post to reach out and grab a Nash shot going way wide but inside deflecting it straight down on to Stepan's stick for a goal.

 

[yrrebbor]

Boyle and Poo...period ruiners.

Boyle played well; what game are you watching?

 

[Hire Sather]

Why you gotta take it that next step

It would've been a great save.

"impossible scenario" is an absurd statement to make.

Nothing about it is his fault

Had a chance to make a brilliant save, didn't. Flyers score on their first chance.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Can we expect the Rangers MVP McDonagh at any point in this series? He's been ordinary at best this series.

 

[Filip Chytil]

It shouldn't even be entertained as conversation here. It can't be. It's an impossible scenario for a goaltender to make that save.

Anyone who argues otherwise I can't even consider being a human being. I relegate them to being a trollbot or some sort, put here just to create angst amongst the normal thinking human beings.

Lundqvist had no chance on that one and was left in the dust there. Agreed. I'm more worried about how the team responds, including Hank. He lets in 1 and he looks shaky all of the sudden. He really doesn't look the same after he lets in a goal.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

St. Louis had the puck and a clear lane to the red line... He passed it backwards for ****s sake! That goal was more on him than anyone. Poops idiotic penalty aside.

No it was on McD before that.. he tried to pass the puck to hank before that

 

[NYR27]

McDonagh fell down, and Richards tripped over him, while MSL passed the puck to the two fallen players. It was a complete comedy of errors.

No dude. Giroux picked off Mac and took him down. Refs are too busy keeping McDonald off his knees that they forgot to watch for obstruction.

McDonagh with the worst defensive read ever on that Flyers goal. Looked like a 7th defender.[/QUO
Meh, not really. He had the player at the far post. The trailer got the pass.
Bottom line is that they should have never been in that situation.
Terrible play in the neutral zone.

 

[chosen]

I don't know what the **** happened to McDonagh. He's not the same player. It's not just physically, he seems to be making a lot of mental errors. If McDonagh will play like that we'll ****ing lose this ****ing series. I can't believe I had so much belief in the guy and he's coming up small in the playoffs, really thought more highly of him than this.

He is clearly hurt, but I knew I could count on you to say he's coming up small in the playoffs. Hey, at least you took a few seconds off your Lundqvist is small campaign. A refreshing change of pace.

 

[ThisYearsModel]

Carcillo has hamstrung us to some degree. That line is useless. Too bad the Boyler cannot finish. He played an excellent period. I thought that was Nash's best playoff period in 2 years.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

whats more useless Boyle on a breakaway or Jagr in the shootout?

I've seen Jagr score in the shootout I've never seen Boyle score on a breakaway.

 

[trilobyte]

It's one period. One period that went very well for the Rangers, but ended on a bad note. There is no reason for the Rangers to not get back on the right track, no reason at all.

 

[nevesis]

New period, new game. Take the momentum from them and bury these clowns. LETS GO BOYS!!!!!!!!!

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

They need a good shift or a goal early to get this game back under control.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I will say about Lundqvist, there's a majority that he can do no wrong for, but then there are a few people that think every goal he gives up is his fault. At least I give him a break on some goals, I don't know how that goal was his fault. If that's his fault what isn't?
