I agree 100%, the rangers D-men are to slow and to soft, this will be the rangers down fall in the playoffs IMO, especially against teams like carolina, ottawa, montreal.

Bottom line for the loss last night is the same as it always is... Our defense is too slow and can't handle speed well... therefore the forwards have to come back and help more than other teams' forwards do... when the're not effective at that... we lose. If our PP could just be mediocre it would erase some of those issues but it's not mediocre... it's abyssmal. Hank in nets again tonight per Dellapina.

We have answered back during this streak we had going after bad games. I think we are going to come out really hard tonight and take the lead and not give it away for the rest of the game.

Sat, 15 Mar 2008 17:30:26 +0000 http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/03/14/superstition-or-system/#comment-74899 BTW Im hoping Straka retires next season, so we can either give Prucha that spot, or give Cherepanov a big shot next season, if he has what it takes. He sucks on the point on the PP, if he isn't playing with Jagr then he's pretty much not there offensively. He's a good player, but i think he should call it a career after this season. BTW

Sat, 15 Mar 2008 17:28:14 +0000 http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/2008/03/14/superstition-or-system/#comment-74898 Hank did give Jokinen that 3rd goal. Someone needs to teach the guy how to play the puck. Also, why the hell was Straka on the PP in the final minute? That goes to show you how dumb Renney is. He should have had Avery in there, a guy who always parks himself in front of the net. Its pathetic that Nyr has split the series the 4 of the 5 shitty south east teams. Hopefully tonight they dont do the same thing. BTW Please tell me you all saw when Joe Michaletti accidentally drew the Penis and Balls on the Panther player when he was trying to show the viewers where the puck was. He said "sorry for that" or something like that, cause he knew exactly what people would think it was. Lol of all the luck the guy has, he didnt draw it on his face or his stomach, it had to be down there where it belongs. This guy is so fuggin funny, he is the perfect replacement for JD, especially last season when a Ranger broke his stick, and he said "he broke his shit" by accident.

First off, I agree he needs to shoot the puck more... Beyond that, I didn't hear anybody complaining about him playing the point the past two seasons when he had 76 and 70 points. Why don't you look at his linemates... Drury and Callahan... totally different mentality of the way the game should be played... Straka needs to be played with players who see the game the same way... he played his best with Nylander and Jagr in NY and Kovalev and Lang in Pittsburgh... and why swap Straka for Prucha... Prucha is useless... can't play D and get knocked around like a rag doll... Straka hustles, plays PK... it's obvious that line with Drury and Callahan can't make 2 passes in one shift... How many times does Callahan fumble that puck... I feel embarassed for him... Callahan has 8 pts in 41 games? Give me a break... Straka is a world class player. Hey Everybody,

Duguay said that against a team like Florida, one with inferior talent, the Rangers had to come out and exert themselves. Instead, he saw complacency and that the Panthers were playing with much more desire. He had a line that was something like, "It's not just making the playoffs, it's how you make the playoffs." Also, said our power play was too fancy, that we need to get a guy with "a big butt" in front of the net. They can't be afraid of being hit by the puck.
