Oh look at that, Eminger has been benched for two shifts since the goal was scored. hmmmmm, I wonder why. Not that Hackett will notice that from MSG. What a clown
jonnyd you have to be insane to consider this officiating fine. Caps tie it at 2, then they call another bs penalty to give the Rangers a PP to start the 3rd. It is unbelievable.
I said the Ovie call was bull shit. Ill assume you have no problem with the Erskine elbow call.......and this last one was a cross check bro. I wouldnt worry, you got this game anyway now dude
It is just frustrating because the Caps can never get on a roll, due to all these penalties. Maybe the Rangers are just playing with better discipline than the Caps, but the officating seems one sided.
Yeah....agreed jon..that was all Eminger. MDZ helps out...Richards tried to help out and as usual got caught up helping nobody at all.
its pretty obvious. Not to our poor friend Hack though. I bet hes at the urinal right now screaming his head off about MDZ. I feel bad for him actually. The real question here is, will the Eminger benching make Hack admit he was wrong? Should be very interesting
Ugh. Series tied 2-2. At least the Caps looked good the final 10 minutes. I got tickets for Friday, but I am worried now.
Hes boyle...sometimes I want him dead...sometimes...hes boyle. What I dont get about Boyle is tonite him being on the ice the entire 3rd period but not taking the faceoffs. Didnt see the stats but I guess Stepan was having a good game on faceoffs..and they had Boyle in penalty kill mode with the lead. Great game...what you can try to explain to friends and family about hockey cant be understood until you get a series like this..or a series like pitt/Isles. You just cant explain it and when you try...the feedback "just dont like it" is enough to just know you are talking to people that will never give it a shot. Hockey is..and will always be...the only true sport left. Brutal...skill...all on skates. This was such an enjoyable night. Now..can we win game 5. Thats the question...because if somehow we can...game 6 will be the Garden at its best. Whether its the Knicks or the Rangers...still have at least an hour left..love watching the postgame stuff/press conferences etc. A great 4 hour night. Oh..and Jon..we have to give it up for Brassard..this kid is special..very special.
Only saw the end of the game, but the Rangers were playing great while I watched. Haven't seen the Stepan goal, but Girardi's was beautiful and Hagelin's was great.
For the life of me after 3 or 4 close calls in this series..how Holtby was still chasing pucks was nuts. You knew he would get burnt..even Marty got burnt many times in his career. He didnt do that the rest of the game and I doubt we see him out of the net for the rest of this series.
