Lets Just Play Hockey

Play hockey for crying out loud! Who cares about the refs? Who cares what happened Sunday? JUST PLAY HOCKEY.
If Henrik plays his game, and Drury and Gomez play the way they are payed to play. Or more honestly, if Drury and Gomez get their heads out of their asses,The Rangers will have a good chance to win game 7. The defensemen cannot run like a bunch of pansies from the offensive zone. The defense has to take the body. HELLO!!! TAKE THE BODY. There is no running away in playoff hockey. And do me a favor Rangers. make a good pass.

You Cannot Build Rome In A Day!

It's useless to comment on the stretch run this year. Your basic team is in evaluation mode while being in playoff contention. It becomes painfully evident that Chris Drury is being very vocal about how much he wants to be the man. Problem is, Drury is never. and I reiterate NEVER in the location that made him a clutch goal getter in his career. That location is In front of the net. Drury can be found in the corner, along the side boards, on the point, but never in the slot untli the play is over. Captain Drury loves to use his slap shot. Why??? It sucks. Get back to where you came from Chris. And you will start to score.
Gomez and Avery are a great pair. As long as Gomez looks for Avery. Which Scott fails to do at an alarming frequency. Why??? I dont know. Gomer skates it up , then loses all the playmaking ability that made him lethal as a Devil more often than not. I shake my head. It's almost like Gomer chokes.
The Redden Saga ....... Is he on drugs? Or is it just that Wade relies solely on his natural hockey abilities and doesn't put the time in to study the league? Redden is constantly surprised by opposing skaters coming down his side. Wade needs to go back and do some homework I feel.
The power play lives on the boards instead of feeding a slot man. It is incredible that no Ranger will plant himself in the slot and NOT MOVE. Albeit, Antropov is the strongest presence the Rangers have in front these days. I'm done for now.
