game discussion thread GDT: Buffalo at New York Rangers (3/23/2012, 7:00pm)

Not a great start...Seem to be defending a lot, early

[North Buffalo]

Agreed passing a little off and not enough jump. Rangers are beating the Sabres to the puck.

[kishoph]

Sabres look a little flat footed, I'm surprised that the Rangers aren't being more physical, trying to send the Sabres a message. Stafford had a rough night the other day, hopefully he can have a good night he's been important to that lines success.

Is it me, or is the ice chippy? Does it seem like players are falling, with and without contact?

[NowDoYouBelieve]

Vanek has lost his mojo.

[kishoph]

Why are they hesitating with shooting the puck ? Get shots to the net.

I watched Edmonton play in Tampa, last night. Man, five firsts ...

[wjag]

For as good as the Buffalo passing has been lately, it is missing tonight..

[North Buffalo]

It was 74 in NYC today. Probably is chippy and soft.

[Iron Crotch]

Oh, come on Drew! :wallbash:

I bet that was in...

[wjag]

Oh so close...

 

I bet that was in...

 

I bet it wasn't

[North Buffalo]

Ah, now they are skating a bit. Still Ranger forecheck is a bear.

How's that working out for the Oilers?

His pad was behind the line.

[waldo]

nice play myers...get the puck, hold it for four seconds until they take it away from you and stay in your zone for a minute

[North Buffalo]

close, but don't think it was in.

[NowDoYouBelieve]

I get the feeling the NYR net is closed for business today.

[Iron Crotch]

Great defensive play by Foligno...

[wjag]

I get the feeling the NYR net is closed for business today.

 

History says this will be a low scoring game... My guess is neither team will hit 25 SOGs.........

[NowDoYouBelieve]

1-0 Caps

[...]

Talk about a quiet arena.

[wonderbread]

Duff is such a pro. So polished.

[darksabre]

Oilers need a goalie. That's been their problem for years.

40 minutes to glory
