I swear that looked like kicking motion to me.

And to think team Europe was written off in their first pre-season game.

That looked kicked in to me. As expected with hockey coverage in the US we get one replay and then the game ends without explanation.

Hank stay in the net!!!!!

I think Sweden needs more talented forwards... everyone is too willing to pass and there's no big gun. The twins are past their prime. Forsberg has to step up same with backstrom. Hopefully zibanejad gets a shot next time. He's should be a nice piece. Sweden has too many effort guys not enough pure skill.

Kicked in or not, that was some bad luck for Sweden. Hank looked a little slow on the recovery.

Only if the finals had no Ranger then I'd be down but either way, we would have had a player in the final. Would rather have a full camp. Nice reminder for Henrik to stop playing the puck and just let his defensemen take care of it.

What do you know. Lundqvist plays the puck and turns it over to the other team and they score instantly. I see he hasn't addressed that at all.

If the Rangers lost a big playoff game like that I would set my hair on fire.

Hank is the man but he looks like a lost child whenever he leaves the net to play the puck.

Hank was awful today and comes up small in big spot yikes. All 3 goals really bad. Last one crucial error not getting to puck then slow to get back

First two were beerleaguesque

I didn't think the first goal was terrible. It's Gaborik, he's a master at scoring tricky goals like that in close. The next two were annoying though definitely. You'd think after years of Henrik making stupid plays outside the net he would just stay put but apparently not. :laugh:

The goaltending experts have returned. Lundqvist's demise is back in full effect. More at 11...
