Slumping Rangers go back to Lundqvist

Ah, sarcasm. It is the air I breathe.
No, I don’t think you should be overly concerned about your Rangers after last night’s streak-snapping loss to a Panthers team that has now won six straight.
But a little bit of concern? Sure. After all, nothing is yet a given with 11 games remaining.
Truth is, the Rangers haven’t been airtight for a few games now, and the last thing you want is to drop two straight to two teams on the outside of the playoff picture. This time of year is all about momentum. The Rangers had it going one way for more than a month. They can’t afford to now have it swing back in the other direction.

ugh. They need this one.
smart move by your boy Avery.. 4 yrs for that moron, moron penalty.
who will support mr avery on that stupidity??????
like a little child frustrated, terrible…...
this game is disgusting
I take back what I said about Straka on the penalty kill, twice tonight he’s stopped skating, challenging and just stood there….
Tampa Bay scores a goal and with 13:00 left Renney sends out the Betts line?????
Sjostrum is the best Ranger out there now. He shouldn’t be on the checking line!
we need to roll the three lines that might score
doodie,
Dead on. This team looks just like they did early in the year. So many of the same flaws and weaknesses. Frustrating.
Obviously they went to Florida to vacation. A very disappointing two games played by guys who are already counting chickens. The sign of a bunch who are pretenders rather than contenders.
Can’t buy a goal…
Three words for this game…pa-the-tic!
nice pass with 3 to go, shanny.
Is it me or is cally sucking?
Well folks, don’t buy your play-off tix just yet. Beer, Nasty…everything is just fine.
I agree. Where is the Callahan who was relentless when he got called back up?
Free Peter Prucha! I know he’s not the savior but let him play.

everyone did from Gomez to Cally to Backman to Rozi… everyone… it was a team effort, they need to shake it off and come back with fire.
2 losses to the Lighting, 1 to the Kings, 1 to Phoenix. 8 points that any decent team picks up, no problem.
their Florida vacation ended just as expected.
they could have phoned in those 2 losses
I amend my statement, Hank came to play.

Staal Mart—- still a hunch??? As I said Rangers are in trouble … they needed to make lineup tweeks … they did not … hence two game losing streak and 6 of last 7 opponents have gotten points against us …
Newman- you still confident … you still seeing things being rosy??? I hope not.
