"Brendan Shanahan, the NHL's senior vice president of player safety, didn't see the need for a review, according to a league source, and there will be no fine or suspension [for Ovechkin]" http://washingtonexaminer.com/sports/cheers-and-jeers/2012/05/not-heading-suspension/580641
It's a shame that I'm not even hot about this. It's getting to the point that we all know certain players are never going to be held accountable for their actions in this league. And that's outrageous.
Bro, i cant deal with this shit...I hate that motherfucker Shanahan...Lets just go out there and play Rangers hockey. I am tired of these lapses, let's go beat these guys.
We need to just get shots on goal. From the point, odd angles, behind the net, whatever. Make the rookie save it, enough of this pass it around bullshit only to have the shot blocked in front because we took too damn long to pull the trigger.
This is how I fee about this game. Rangers have to find a way to put up a few goals to get the W. We need this win, cause its by far the most important game of the seasons. The winner of this game will win the series. LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!!
I know my good man, but something is just different about this series. We need the good juju in the garden tonight.
The officiating is ridiculous, although I understand that these things usually even out.....however that slashing call on Hagelin and the non call on Cally were both ridiculous and instrumental in the outcome of the game..these refs seem to do their best to have a direct impact on the game. Not taking anything away fromt he Caps who are playing tough, and capitalizing on their chances, but christ, the Rangers gave them Game 2 and the refs gave them Game 4. the fact that Ovechkin, who blatantly disregarded the puck and left his feet for a head shot wasn't even called in for a talk let alone not being suspended is outrageous. hopefully the Rangers can control their emotions tonight, becasuse by all accounts they were steamed after the last game.
Yeah they should win this. But they're not going to win unless they shoot the fucking puck. So SHOOT THE FUCKING PUCK
we shoot plenty. Wwe just NEVER hit the net. Our point men are totally inept at hitting the net. Girardi and MDZ being the biggest culprits. Stepan and AA also have trouble finding the net.
the caps are doing a good job of getting in the lanes, if anything i think the rangers are shooting at the moon instead of the goal, everything gets blocked or hits the glass.
I was watching Canada vs the US, and the announcer said how do you get shots thru went when they are in the shooting lanes and the color guy said elevate your shot and they won't stay in that spot...makes sense, who wants a puck in the face...
ok, time to pick on someone so they score...we have an obvious choice tonight. HAGELIN....how many goals does Hagelin have so far in the playoffs?? Ummmmmmm, ZERO. And hes playing on teh first line so he is a gigantic void right now. So tonight, the gay Swede must score
going off your theory of calling someone out, even though he doesn't deserve it, i'll call out Richards. Experience, and already proven, prove it again Brad!!!!
