All of Hank's goals were deflections, he played great, straight up robbed the Caps a few times. BIG WIN. Now do it again. DEFEND THIS HOUSE!
Should help Danny G, M cD, Mdz and Strals, especially since John Moore has been picking up quality minutes also
Moore is one hell of a young player, like I said when we picked him up, he's gonna turn into what we've been lacking: a quality puck moving defenseman with a slap shot
I think this kid hasnt even scratched the surface yet. Lets think about all he has done since being here. He provides a point shot from a defenseman on the power play...I repeat...a point shot. He controls the blue line very well on the power play. Able to go East and West with the puck...very smooth. He hits the net...huh? Yes..hits the net with a hard shot. He got into a fight...yes..a fight..and beat the shit out of someone. Where the hell did the come from. Forgot the team we were playing but he can drop the gloves. He checks...he has heart...he is a sore loser as was shown after the overtime goal in game 2 when he almost broke the glass with his stick. He has a mean streak in him. This kid is just starting to show all he can do. This was a great pick up...and offensive defenseman that can play very good d.
Yeah...I agree. The third goal...even if it was deflected was soft. There was not much on that puck at all. Hey...back it up with a stellar 4th game and get us back to Washington for game 5. If that happens all we need to do is hold serve in our building and figure out a way to win 1 of 2 there. It can be done. Never thought I would feel that way after game 2 but the Caps showed that with all of their offensive skill..they can be beaten in their end.
Those pieces we got in the gabby trade look great man...big move. Btw, this was a big win. Loved the aggressiveness witth our energy. Shoot the puck! Lundqvist was ok not amazing. He was better in game 2. We had so many powerplay sti are inneffective against one of poorer pks in the league. Richards has to show up jeez
I think we have to get pucks on net, period. Holtby has been shaky this whole series and has been bailed out like 8 times because we just couldn't hit the 4x6 opening. Throw pucks at the net and have people in front. I think Clowe will be a big help in that regard, he's dominant in front of the goal with his size. Also, Richards is hot garbage.
The Garden was jumping last night. I have no voice at all from screaming. When you walked in last night, all the seats has T-Shirts and Towels on them. Rangers proved last night Holtby is not that good, with that Hank looked shakey at times. I think I screamed ASHEMMMMMM at the top of my lungs for 2 minutes stright. Oh and how about Brian Boyle last night??
Not sure if anyone here caught this, but McDonagh made a spectacular play at the blue line to keep the puck in the zone, which lead to the game winning goal.
Actually no, last night it was a loose puck in the corner that Del Zotto was closest to than any other player on the ice, but because he took his sweet-ass time and moved slower than molasses, the Caps swooped in, got the puck, and scored the game tying goal. I realize that rooting for Del Zotto is more important to you than the success of the New York Rangers, but you need to understand why fans who actually care about this franchise would be upset about such a glaring lack of effort and passion.
