Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Sabres 3/14

[NYRFAN218]

I've been using Cult of Personality for awhile. Because the Rangers are basically CM Punk in hockey form.

It's funny because they recently started using Cult of Personality at MSG to close out the warmup mix too.

We need to ride Skapski he's hot.

Keith Yandle <3. Ppl don't realize how good this guy is and he's out 4D!

Deserved that first goal. so did MSL too after that post.

 

[JohnC]

Okay someone correct me if I'm wrong here...

Did Glass not have two of the same exact ****** turnovers passing the puck to Staal at the blueline in the first?

First one was the Ennis breakaway, second one Staal broke up?

Did I imagine that or was it real life?

 

[wolfgaze]

Why acquire Sheppard if he's not going to play for us?

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

He will tomorrow...

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

Where did you hear this?

 

[Kakko]

Where did you hear this?

I think he's implying/joking about a JT Miller scratching

 

[Machinehead]

Drew Stafford scored tonight. Not in this game, but ****ing of course he did

[PlamsUnlimited]

Thought Staal and Girardi had a great game

 

[FLYLine27*]

Just saw the goal that Yandle scored....Well I shouldnt say "saw" it considering the lighting speed! I could barely keep my eye on it!

 

[Raspewtin]

We have a 77% CF against the Sabres...........and McDonagh was even in attempts, and Girardi was +1.

Let me put that in perspective, Tanner Glass was a PLUS 13 IN CORSI EVENTS.

How the ****??

 

[SnowblindNYR]

We have 65% chance at the Presidents' trophy, 74% chance of winning the east, and 91%(!!!) chance of winning the division.

 

[FOD]

Never.

This is how I expect the Rangers to play.

I knew them winning games 6-5 and 5-4 wasn't going to last. The Rangers are stacked on D and in goal but leave a lot to be desired on offense.

Top Five on the season in goals scored per game.

I feel like the standards for "a lot to be desired" have shifted. The Rangers are a team with good offensive depth, but also had some guys playing a bit above their abilities it seems like, but now they're playing below their abilities. Yes, we're probably a better defensive team than offensive team, but we've also have had a slump as much as the streak before was a hot streak. We're somewhere in the middle.

Yes but they were tasked with shutting down the Sabres' 1st line

The Sabres have a 1st line?

 

[Raspewtin]

Quite a formidable task.

Crosby has nothing on Phil Varone.

Good grief the CorsiFor was 57-20 LOL. Buffalo is like the anti-FC Barcelona

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Just gotta shake my head that Miller is still the scapegoat somehow. Would be funny if it wasn't sad.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

So in the season that Hank won the Vezina, Girardi had his career year, Del Zotto had his career year, and McDonagh had the second best season of his career, we allowed 0.05 goals less per game than we have so far in a season that's supposed to be just ok for Hank and Subpar for Girardi and McDonagh, and we gave up 3 goals almost every game to start the season and when Talbot first took over for Hank. How is that possible? (2.22 GAA vs. 2.27 if you were wondering).

Rangers have a 3 headed monster going on between the pipes.

Sir Skapman with the donut, congrats!

Scatman GOAT, makes me think of Baseketball.

Now you see why my name used to be CM Lundqvist.
