It’s even funnier when you realize the havoc Avery’s up and down has on the Stars cap calculation…. his re-entry penalty is jumping on and off their cap. Him being sent to the AHL the first time nearly dropped them below the floor

I’m biased of course, but unless Pronger would have been in there to cover Rupp’s first goal, I don’t see how. Meszaros played Rupp’s first goal wrong, Rupp’s second goal was a goalie error, nothing more than that, and the third goal by Richards was just a mess in front of the net.

It’s Rupp. You don’t have to worry about him moving around you, so Mez should have stepped up, taken the shot away, but I think he got caught between positions, and elected to try and get in the way as much as possible.

No one should be salty about the last, one freakin tweet to support the Russian WJC team that just lost the gold medal game is not the same level of effort as talking to the media about tonight’s game.

By the numbers, Danny is the best penalty shot/shootout guy on the team and it isn’t that close.
Could’ve gone either way, but I don’t think it was a BAD decision.

Never get caught telling a hockey player “it’s just a game”. Never get caught trying to explain to him all the things in the world that matter so much more. His mind might well acknowledge the truth to your point, but his soul will be powerless to accept it. Considering the immensity of what he gives to the sport, the immeasurability it offers in return. Nothing ever feels as perfect as a moment of flawlessness on the ice. No bond as strong as one that compels brothers to bleed for one another. Not many leaders are this versed in the craft of motivation. Not many pursuits can evoke such visions of brilliance.
This is why it hurts so much when skill falls short of what the will desires. This is why it’s so unforgettable when absolute passion yields ultimate reward. And that’s all still just the start of what the game can do to you.
The stakes rise as their season continues from here. While you watch from a distance, remember what was validated up close. Hockey may in fact be just a game, but it’s also who they are.

I have to say the show did not improve my impression on Tortorella at all. I hate him now more than I ever did when he was coaching TB.
I do like Lundqvist more and that Boyle dude was certainly the most interesting of the bunch. The Rangers were overall fairly boring, but boring and a cup chance is better than exciting and first or second round exit. Dubinsky is still a weasel, though, and a when he was drunk managed to come off even slimier. Yuck.
