GDT: Rangers @ Ducks - 7:30 PM PST

[Teemu Salami]

Welcome to the team Pirri

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Hope McD is alright, never like to see that.

 

[navyduck]

That's a penalty too right?

 

[KelVarnsen]

Didn't play horrible didn't play great didn't get ANY calls.

 

[dracom]

hard to win games when the refs won't call literally anything against the other team.

 

[Goose of Reason]

Tough game, hope McDonagh is alright. Hate seeing that.

 

[snowave]

Beat by NY defense and Tim Peel

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Whaddaya know, he's fine. Maybe he thought the bought officiating crew would call a penalty on the puck for being mean.

 

[mightyquack]

That's no PP's for us in either game against the Rangers right? Makes you wonder how they only have 80 something points.

 

[Lyons71]

Broken nose will do that...

I honestly think being paired with bieksa correlates more with his quality of play than anything else, before or after injury. Remember when Hampus was struggling bigtime early in the year? His partner was Bieksa.

 

[McDonald19]

Beat by NY defense and Tim Peel

Agreed. Rangers collapsed back into the D zone to protect their backup goalie in this snooze fest. Meanwhile the refs refused to call anything on the Rangers.

How do you score when the other team collapses 5 back and gets away with obstruction and tripping?

 

[Goose of Reason]

I don't think I'd call Pirri invisible but he didn't do much. Hopefully he can start getting his shot off more as he adjusts to the system.

 

[George Binks]

Garbage officiating

 

[gilfaizon]

Hope Pirri is just rusty. I saw nothing in his game that shows he is an NHLer at all. Hope he can get open for that shot lots because it sounds like he relies on it.

 

[Static]

Fine with this loss, it was just a no bounce game. That goal to win it was just ridiculous bad luck, and anytime a team gets zero PPs it seems preordained that it just isn't their night.

I thought Perry was our best player, he looked dangerous all night.

 

[HanSolo]

I don't think Cam's been that great since he came back from injury honestly. At least not at the level he was at the start of the year.

Well I fully expect him to return to that form in the playoffs. He has a different level in the postseason. I was just hopeful that since he was playing that way the first half of the season that come this postseason he could hit an even higher level. But maybe not.

because they're utter garbage. once lundqvist retires this myth of them being contenders will finally be done with.

unless their management finally figures out how to properly build a hockey team, and not just acquire all teh beeg namez

I checked their GDT in the 1st period and it was complete pessimism and a Fowler joke, so maybe they really are the worst team ever and lack of penalty calls is keeping them afloat.

They're incredibly dull. Imagine watching that all the time.

 

[Sean Garrity]

Tanner Glass should've been the #1 star.

And did Horcoff win a face off all night?

 

[kducks]

Why take it away from Tim Peel? He was the clear #1 star tonight.

Eh no, this was a game with mediocre effort and poor execution.

I disagree, I thought they played great and showed why they're still a top team. They really don't give you much.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Agreed. They can play tight defensive hockey with the best of them. That's how you win in the playoffs where a lot of games are the first to 2 goals. I'd have them with Tampa and Washington as the only real legitimate threats to come out of the East.

 

[evomacky]

the boys didnt play the same as they did ahainst the devils i will admit, but no calls against the rags? saw several picks away from the play, not to mention trips and interferences.
