    Jesus Hack, he followed it up with a tremendous game vs. a team in front of us. The puck hit BOTH posts! Was a weird play. We got smoked vs. the Islanders the entire game, that one play wasn't even that consequential....

    0-0 Game at the point of the Gaffe. There is no question that the play crushed the team's morale. and sent the momentum entirely to the Islanders.

    If this team has any hope of repeating as EC Champs, they have to be able to shake off an early missed opportunity. It's hockey, very rarely does everything fall your way.

    Poe mentioned in the other thread about guys who disappeared, I always think of Johnny English, when we play the Sens and where the hell is Tommy?

    If this team has any hope of repeating as EC Champs, they have to figure out how to beat the Islanders, Bruins, and Lightning. They were able to dodge the Bruins last years. They are going to have to face at least one of them this year.

    16 out of 19, good win against a scrappy Sens team, Kreider and Hags speed the difference:

    Rangers started 11-10-4 through 25 games. They have now gone 16-3-0 in last 19 to improve to 27-13-4 heading into All-Star break, 1 pt. behind Pens with game in hand #NYR

    FYI The Hayes goal was scored on a net less open that Brassard's ButtFumble 2.

    I don't see how you can not say that Monday's game against the Islanders is a MUST WIN game.

    If you're going to kill your players you might as well spread the love. Girardi scored on Lundqvist last night for the Sens, Nash had a nice shot on goal that Hank got the left pad on, and Stepan did a great job of blocking Kreider's shot with his leg that was going directly into the open net right of Andersen

    All fair points, but none of them met this franchise with the level of utter humiliation that Brassard's horrific gaffe did.

    It is mind-boggling that no discipline was taken for that embarrassment. If I ran that organization, once the whistle had blown that play dead, I would have had a microphone lower down from the rafters for Brassard to give his retirement speech.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's nice and all, but he ain't no Marc-Andre Fleury. ;)

    How good is Erik Karlsson? What a talent.
