Last Night's Action: The Defense Is Offensive

2008_12_rangerslogo.jpg

  • Pittsburgh 8 Rangers 3: It has been two nights to forget for New York, but the question is, where did the defense go? Surely it cannot be the loss of Wade Redden that sparked the total breakdown in the defensive zone. Whatever it is, the Rangers have an off day Sunday to figure out why they have given up 13 goals in two games before the Penguins come to MSG Monday Night.
  • Devils 6 Islanders 1: Patrik Elias had two goals and two assists as the Devils buried the Islanders Saturday. New York actually took a 1-0 lead into the first intermission, but New Jersey scored twice in the second before pouring in four in the third for the rout. Martin Brodeur earned the win by stopping 22-of-23.
