Whomevers idea it is to have stupid has been celebrities to games like this for the camera should be forced to play goalie without any pads on.

meh, no big deal

No excuse, imo, for the league's best PP to go 0-fer in this game.

It’s a bit worrisome that only a handful of guys are playing at the top of their games right now. I feel like in the past 2 seasons we’ve kind of been hitting on all cylinders entering the postseason. Still 10+ games to find a groove.

The 'they can learn something from this/there's a lesson to be learned here' narrative, as if what happened tonight hasn't happened before is bullshit.

Back to back champs and tied for first in the metro. Call me crazy but I think they’re in a pretty good spot.

Crazy!

They're in a pretty good spot, but you can't be caught taking your foot off the gas pedal throughout the entire third period of games this late in the season.

Clanging a puck off susan sarandon, a possibility never considered, has now vaulted to the very top of things I'd like to see happen

This post > this game

But when it should be 8-0 after 1 and it’s still 0-0, I don’t blame them for unraveling a little.

And Simon in for sheary on line 1 when available, pls. Everyone else stay put.

They don't seem as hungry this year.

I went to bed after one period, so I can’t blame them for letting up in a relatively meaningless and inappropriately late starting game.

They looked flat heading in to the playoffs last year too.

What the hell happened?? I went to bed about 5 minutes into the 3rd and we were peepee smacking them.

Letang happened.

Malkin not getting a shot on a Penalty Shot didn't help things.

Postby **meow** » Thu Mar 15, 2018 10:28 am

Both interesting situations

Postby **The U** » Thu Mar 15, 2018 10:35 am

It’s too bad ZAR is hurt and a shame the staff doesn’t like Sprong. Another Winger is needed, the lines just don’t seem optimal right now IMO.

lots of weird takes this morning. we killed them for 40 minutes. this was nhl vs ahl. they were a joke and we did everything but solve their goalie and hit corners on our shots. the 3rd was weird, but i think they just figured the goal problem was solved and the rangers are ass. some players (letang) didn't see the comeback coming so they slept through the last period.

but overall, that is a 6-2 game or something 9 times out of 10. it was a joke that the game wasn't over in the first 10 minutes. but sure...lets change all the lines

Sheary was benched for most of the third, so we're not the only ones who noticed how bad he was playing.

he's lost again. but i think this dogshit version of sheary is still valuable on the 4th line
