I was pretty surprised that over on the HF Boards the general consensus is that the Rangers are getting shafted by some shoddy reffing.? I honestly am not sure that is the case.? I think the reffing has been fairly even to be honest.? The penalty shot call, while a bit iffy, appeared to me to be the right call, as were the calls on Jagr, Shanahan, etc.? You can complain about reffing all you want, and generally im the first one to say when its bad.? But today it doesnt seem to be a factor, Rangers are doing it to themselves.
With that said I thought the play of both teams seriously regressed in the second, probably moreso by the Thrashers, as they looked flat footed on many plays.
God bless Henrik, w/o him, this season is already over.
