Rangers Vs. Sabres: New York Rangers Look To Bounce Back From Loss To Devils

New York Rangers at Buffalo Sabres, Feb 1, 2012 7:30 PM EST





The New York Rangers are looking to rebound from a tough loss to the New Jersey Devils they suffered last night.

Joe's Player To Watch:


Brad Richards

#19 / Center / New York Rangers

6-0

196

May 02, 1980



Just a feeling that Richards has a big night for the Rangers in Buffalo tonight. He's been quiet of late but I like what I've seen from him on the ice.

Gave fun in the game thread guys!

by Biff Champion on Feb 1, 2012 8:01 PM EST up reply actions  

The only reason they’re not really considered ‘elite’ at this point is that we’re winning tight 1-goal games because we don’t have good scoring down the line-up. Guys like Dubi/Boyle aren’t going to come close to what they did last year. AA as well.

by Caerid11 on Feb 1, 2012 8:00 PM EST up reply actions  

Agreed

They don’t look bad, but there’s something not quite… polished enough about them. They still look like they’re getting lucky a lot. Mediocre play in their d-zone doesn’t help.

At least the forecheck looks good.

That’s a good point, Kevin. It’s a tribute to their D that they can (usually) hold a one or two goal lead for a period or more. But more times than not, it seems they are on the wrong side of the shots on goal/time of possession stats. I could be wrong, just seems to be the case.

Lundqvist is shootout master so we’re doomed.

OPERATION TANK IS A GO. It’s the only explanation for Mike Weber. He’s on a secret mission.

That is a good question, I’m not really sure but he always seems to come up with the big saves

For how much the league has pimped guys like Crosby and Ovechkin…how many think they failed not focusing on Hank? Not very many are all well-spoken and respected in the league.

Those two clowns are unfairly praised time and time again. Guys like Hank and Cally and Gabby deserve some damn promotion
