Last Night's Action: No Wins Here

2008_12_rangerslogo.jpg

  • LA 2 Rangers 1: There were a couple of new faces on the ice for New York Tuesday, but they didn't help the Rangers put the puck in the net. Once again, Marian Gaborik was the only goal scorer and while Brandon Prust certainly made his presence felt, Slats is going to have to make a couple of more trades if he expects this team to compete in the playoffs come April.

  • Toronto 3 Devils 0: The Maple Leafs got a boost from a new goalie while Yann Danis let in three goals in twenty-six shots. New Jersey put 30 shots on net, but they couldn’t break through.

  • Detroit 97 Nets 93: The third quarter was the problem for New Jersey again as they were outscored 28-19 in it. Take away those 12 minutes and you have a Nets’ win. Devin Harris and Brook Lopez both had great games, scoring 24 and 27 respectively while Harris added 14 assists.

    The Ranger game last night was simply awful. Without Gaborik, I don't think the Rangers could have ever entered the offensive zone. Not sure why Tortorella used 5 forwards on a power play when there was no score. Maybe he needed to rest his defensemen and penalty killers who were killing some very stupid penalties.

    At this point, the Rangers should just give up their playoff hopes and concentrate on building their team for next season.
