Hopefully, Wednesday’s 6-3 loss will represent the worst effort the Rangers give all season. They came out flat, gave up three breakaways in the first ten minutes and committed atrocious turnovers in their own zone. Yet, somehow they only trailed 2-0 after one period.
Tom Renney must have given the team the worst pep talk in history, because Vancouver made it 4-0 in the first three minutes of the second period. Chris Drudy scored to make it 4-1, but the Rangers went on a penalty spree that resulted in Vancouver getting an extended 5-on-3 advantage that they converted to make it 5-3. That was it for Henrik Lundqvist who was pulled, but can hardly be blamed for the lack of defense in front of his net.
New York actually made a game of it over the final 30 minutes, but Roberto Luongo made some big saves to keep the Rangers from catching up.

SHOUT OUT to all the double chinned bi-girls with XXL bottoms at the Garden. Ranger Pride World Wide!
Game was over when Lundqvist pulled himself - a Swedish thing for a goalie to pull himself - if only Brodeur pulled himself when he played against the Rangers...... Roy and DiPetrio too lol
Drudy->Drury
Henrik fled the goal like it was infested after that 4th? goal.
Good Christ, how many short-handed goals are they going to give up?
Get it sorted, Renney. And let Roszival sit on the bench and think about how truly awful he has been this season.
" That was it for Henrik Lundqvist who was pulled, but can hardly be blamed for the lack of defense in front of his net."
Henrick wasnt pulled. He left.
Roszival and Redden Stink... the defense is asleep.
Ranger's fans = ficklest fans in the league. They've let in 2 or fewer goals 15 out of their 22 games. Granted most of that has been down to Lundqvist's play, but he King Henrik will have an off night or two. I think most worryingly recently is the lack of energy by the team early in games.
Absolutely correct, captainblackout. They seem to not wake up until half way through the game ... every night.
