gdt: [RS] (#58) Rangers vs. Boston Bruins // Bruising the Bruins

The rookies showed more bite than most of the vets.

What went wrong tonight

 

1. Georgie gave up 2 soft goals (deflection goal, he played it very poorly)

 

2. PP couldn't take advantage (1/5 on PP)

 

3. Missed chances on Offense

 

That's what separates teams like us from the Bruins. They can finish, we can't. That's why we lost.

Not sure how you call a breakaway a soft goal

Those teams are tops for a reason. We're not there yet.

Precisely my sentiment

Yeah, can?t fault him today. Special teams failed today.

Amazing atmosphere at game today for a 3:30 - lindgren an animal and basically we got beat by the best team in the league, although that softie in the first was really really bad.

 

Have to imagine that loses toner to hank or shesty for a few games

What went right? Generally strong on the puck in their own zone. Kept it close enough to turn the tide in the 3rd. Largely played tough and physical. Special props to Buchnevich for the crosscheck that sent Marchand's helmet spinning into the air.

They hung in there and put up a fight. Not like they got dominated. I don't think they are that far apart from a team like this. Goaltending gaffes cost them the game. I feel like the Rangers carried the play for the 2nd and 3rd period.

Any gifs of the Buch crosscheck?

Thing of beauty.

Just proves that against top teams, you can’t make mistakes that lead to goals.

 

lol.

They didn't even show up for 50 minutes. Massive letdown that probably was always going to happen considering the emotional previous two games, coming home, and playing a much better hockey club. Boston understands how to play hockey to get points and this Ranger club still largely doesn't.

 

We're essentially a poor man's version of the Panthers or Leafs, both of whom also aren't very good. Lots of fun when everything is clicking, though!

 

lol.

 

LOL. He gets fucked up by a 22 year old Lindgren and softy Buch, plays a bad game and then talks smack in the locker room. He made sure this was the last time we're playing Boston this year aswell. Fucking loser.

I see it as a good loss. Went toe to toe with the best team in the league. Played hard. Played with some bite. I think there’s more to draw from on a loss like that than a win against a bad team.

He's earned the right to talk. He's better than. Everyone on our team but Panarin.

Toe to toe? What? They had one scoring chance through 50 minutes.

Exactly.

He's earned the right to talk. He's better than. Everyone on our team but Panarin.

 

Ofcourse. Just feels silly. He was the one with a nasty cross-check on Lindgren and then coming with comments like that towards a young guy. He probably haven't watched Lindgren this season so he's just talking bs because he's salty.

 

And the worst part is he's always running from fights. Talks so much shit, but is the biggest pussy ever on the ice.

And Shesterkin.

So every good player should talk shit about young players after games just because it got a little physical? Thats dumb logic.

And Shesterkin.

Eh, Marchand is better defensively.

Toe to toe? What? They had one scoring chance through 50 minutes.

 

It's not like Boston was generating all of these scoring chances. Their first goal was flukey and the second was a horrific turnover by Trouba.

 

I think toe to toe is quite accurate.

They were winning on the road. They don't take chances in that situation. That's why they're in 1st, that's why they've beaten the Rangers three times this year.

 

There's no way Halak was even sweating.

The first goal was not well played by Georgie and the everything went wrong on the second goal: Trouba with a terrible giveaway in the offensive zone and Georgie played too deep in his net allowing Coyle for the easy high glove-side shot.
